Long Overdue Post

Life has been very busy lately!! The kids are just busy in general, work is VERY busy, and E had her wisdom teeth removed yesterday, so I have been playing nurse for the past two days. I don't care what these oral surgeons say...this surgery sucks. If they say it should be easy or if they say it will be difficult, I think it is all the same...DIFFICULT (and to me, it seems like they TELL you it will be "easy" to prevent anxiety before the procedure, then you get hit with the pain afterwards and think, "What the heck, I thought this would be easy???"). E is so swollen today, can't open her mouth very far, but the pain is manageable with just Aleve, which is awesome. She is a real trouper (like she has been her whole life). Her surgery was "easy", and mine three years ago was "the hardest one I have had for years" (according the the surgeon at my one-week re-check), and it all looks the same to me in the end...I remember very clearly being in the same position she is in after my surgery! Anyway, she is fine and will never have to think about this again. Next year, it may be A's turn!!!

So, you may think that I have forgotten to enter some exercise days...uh, nope, I have just been awful at getting my exercise in. Just awful, no motivation, by the time I get home from work it is so late, it is too cold, blah blah blah. I am not going to beat myself up about it. I will get back into the routine. Oh, and I never did try that Pilates DVD. :)

However, my eating has been GREAT. Even with alot of stress this week at work and E's surgery, I have not used food for comfort. So, yay me for that.

Tomorrow is my weigh-in, and hopefully it will be trending in the right direction.
