Another weigh-in, stress and life

Another week has passed and I didn't make it in here to post. I have got to get better at this. lol I don't know if anyone actually reads this blog but hey, it helps me keep track of my weight loss journey so that is a plus. Also, I can vent in here and get things off my chest so I don't blow up at certain people or any one person at all. And I can tell ya, that I most likely will be venting in this post because I have been stressed this past week.

So lets start off with my weigh-in this morning. I wasn't nervous at all but maybe I should have been because I lost more last week when I was nervous. lol. So I get up, go to the bathroom and start running my water for my shower. I then go weigh myself. Drum roll please..........................
..................................
............................ lol ok I guess that is enough. I weighed in at 149.0 pounds. So that means that I lost 1.8 pounds this week. Almost 2 pounds so not too shabby. I am hoping that I will lose more next week. I am determined. I have worked out the past 3 days and hope to keep it up. Monday and today I played Just Dance 3 with the kids and let me tell you, that is a workout in itself and is so much fun. Tuesday I did my Walk Away The Pounds 3 Mile and I actually completed all 3 miles. That was a first and I was so excited. I think tomorrow (Thursday) I am going to do some strength training. Granted I don't know much I can do here at the house but do have some ab workouts and push-ups maybe. I am sure I will figure it out.

Stress... omg I have had more than my fill this week. Between my sister and work and just every day life, I am so ready for a vacation from everything. Let's see, where to begin. Let's start with work which involves Chris. He just got finished working 80+ hours a week working his regular job and then working on a truck and I thought, finally I am going to be able to spend some much needed time with him. Boy was I wrong. A new project at work has came up. He worked all 7 days this last week and I believe he is doing the same thing this week. I had plans for this past Sunday which he didn't get to go to due to work. I didn't know until Sunday morning that he had to work so needless to say I was very pissed. I told Terry over 3 weeks ago that Chris could not do anything this Sunday, the 26th as we are going to my Mom's house for my brother's birthday dinner and we are delivering some furniture to her. Well now I don't know if he is going to be going cause Terry says he has to work Saturday night... from 9pm to 6am. Terry's smart mouth says, he isn't working during the day so he can still go. Fuck that.. he needs to sleep. It really makes me mad. I want Chris to put his foot down and tell him that he can't work.. that we have plans.

Now on to my sister and the stress she is giving me. Let me first say, I do love my sister very much and am so glad to have her in my life but sometimes I can only  handle so much of her. She always complains about her stepdaughter. I honestly don't ever remember hearing anything good come out of her mouth about her stepdaughter. Well now she is acting like she is better than me because she is remodeling her bedroom and master bathroom. I am happy that she has the money to do this but dang, there is no reason to rub it in my face and make it like she is better than me. Also her newest thing is she has a problem that I talk to our cousin... yes I said our cousin. Last I checked, he is my cousin just as much as he is her cousin and it really shouldn't matter if I talk to him too. I mean geez. I do everything in my power to keep my mouth shut when she says things but it is hard. She actually interigates him and I both on what we talk about. What does it matter what we talk about. Granted a lot of it is weight loss because we are both working on losing weight but really, what does it matter. I don't go asking her what they talk about because I really don't care.   There is more but I am going to leave it like it is for now.


So Colton has already finished his 4th six weeks and he passed. I am so proud of him for actually passing this time. He has failed the past two six weeks and it is just because he is being lazy and not turning in his work. His dad is not doing anything about it. I do as much as I can which is just talk to him about it and let him know how important his grades are. I am sure most of it goes in one ear and out the other but I can't just sit here and watch him fail. I have to say something. His dad isn't doing anything at all... no grounding.. nothing. If he lived with me, he would be grounded until the grades get brought up. Colton got 4 Cs, 2 Bs, and 2 As... I think that is what it was. I did tell him that I was proud he got his grades up. What I didn't tell him is that I am still disappointed because I know he can do so much better.

For the most part, life is good. Clayton and I got to spend an entire day/evening together. He said it was his "only child" day and that he loved it. We went and got a game for his psp, shopped for Chris's great niece's birthday present. Oh and we got a drink from Starbucks. He had me laughing while shopping. We are going to have to do that again. Sabrina went and stayed the night at Chris's sister's house and she had a blast. I am loving the bonding time as we all play Just Dance 3. The kids enjoy laughing at me but heck, my scores are better than theirs. lol

Well anyway, I need to get some sleep so until I blog again.
