See I'm starting to become neglectful. Gotta remedy that and post more!

Vegas is only six days away! I can't believe it. I haven't lost near enough the weight I wanted to but I don't look too bad. I found a lot of cute outfits that will help camaflouge that. I just got my hair re-done and some french tip nails put on (those will come off when I get back). I also got the cutest pair of high heels. They don't look like they're comfortable but they surprisingly have a cushy sole! I'm glad I tried them on instead of passing them up because of height.

Right now I can't really tell anything with regards to weight because it's that lovely time of the month and I'm majorly bloated city. :/ Joy.

Randomly again, the shoes have peeptoes so I bought pink nail polish to paint my toenails, lol. never do that. Not girly enough I suppose!

My child has been full of it today. He punched a kid at school in the chest because the kid was yelling and he didn't like it. Oi. Boys are so rough and tumble no matter how much you keep it on the Noggin' channel! He has also made me want to give him away a few times today. Though I'm a little short on patience today and tired. Go period and fibromyalgia!

I made a couple of cards many days ago. I haven't had time the last few weeks! It's been go to town and run all around my days off.

And because I had to share, my shoes! XD

I'm massively behind on my friends list, so I apologize. I've been spending my extra time with family and writing penpal letters. :)

I have been incognito the last few days. I worked an extra day on thursday for overtime for Vegas! :) Friday I took my grandma and my sisters to town. With Aaron of course. He actually stayed there for 8 hours because it was bear day. They had bear snacks and did bear artwork and brought a stuffed bear for their parade of bears. He got in a tussle with a boy over a baby doll bottle and the boy threw it at him. It caught him in the cheekbone and he has a nasty black eye and swollen cheekbone. :( My poor baby.

Saturday Jim and I took a day for ourselves. We went around town looking at the thrift shops and the Goodwill. I bought a winter coat and we got some heaters in case we lose power. We actually did lose power for a while that morning because a tree down some power lines. We have a generator so we used that to see how it would work. Jim needs to monkey with it some so we can use it to power our heating system.

We went out to lunch while we were in town and I cheated on my diet with bread. Bad me! But it tasted soooo good. It was so fun to have some time to ourselves. I love my Aaron but once in a while it's good for parents to have some time alone.

I'm back at work now. Just taking a break.

I am down to 14.5 pounds lost! So I'm 145.5. I'm hoping to get down a little more before Vegas. I'm excited because I have cute outfits, lol.

Must go do some more work so you guys will probably have another entry from me later.

I'm a little off today. Tired and just feeling blah. I am taking things way too seriously when they aren't meant that way and it spikes my anxiety. I'm a little up and down with the moods too. I just hate even the slightest twinge in this direction because I had a really bad time a few months back and I honestly don't think I could do that again.

My patient just informed me that voices were coming from the IV pump. Hmm. I think we have a problem here.

I am going to do random prompts here because I seriously have nothing exciting to say. I slept all day and now I'm at work, lol.

Did you have a favorite TV or radio program as a child? Tell about it.

I had so many, but the one that really stuck out for me was She-Ra. I loved watching that cartoon and I wanted the She-Ra dolls really badly. I think my grandparents bought me one. It was the ice queen or something or other. I remember thinking she was so beautiful.

I am trying one day at a time. Honestly, things are so much less overwhelming if I just deal with them in the present as much as possible. I can't change the past. I can't predict the future. I can only make the now the best now I possibly can. Doesn't mean I won't fail, because I often do fail and get lazy, or become ungrateful, or grouchy.

I am getting so excited about the trip to Vegas with the girls from work. We just booked our plane tickets and hotel rooms last night. We are so going to have a blast. I bought a jacket that is smaller than I am now with the hope I will be able to wear it come the end of October. I am exercising like a fiend. No weight loss yet but I am slightly smaller. I just feel like it's so slow. Honestly, I hope it is my thyroid because that would be an easy fix for losing hair and non-budging weight and more tired than usual and leg pains.

I can hardly wait until my doctor's appointment on the 25th so I can just get it checked.

Wowee I really definitely haven't updated in a while. I don't even remember what I said last time I wrote on here!

Lessee... I got a laptop which I love. It helps me do internet stuff and watch Netflix movies and all that.

Aaron turned four and will be starting pre-school and daycare. Wow. Today is the day we go get him registered for pre-school. It doesn't seem like it's possible that he's that old already. A part of me is really sad.

Going to Vegas at the end of October with some girls from work to see Nickelback. I can't wait. It's going to be so much fun. XD

I've been exercising everyday for the last month almost and though I've only lost 4 pounds so far I can already start to see a small difference. I'm determined to get down to a size I like by the time I go to Vegas.

Work is good. I sometimes find it weird to be where I am at work in terms of my level of skill versus starting out seven years ago. It's so neat how I can put things together better and how much more confident I am. It makes me love my job more.

I am so tired, lol. Almost done with work. So my brain is slowing down.

I am still a little freaked out with putting Aaron in pre-school. My baby will be away from us for a few hours at a time three days a week. Ahh! And he will try daycare once in a while instead of going to grandma's both for socialization and because it's closer to where we live.

One more year and he goes to kindergarden. Holy wow time flies.
