First off I have to tell you I lost 2.2 pounds. I am so happy to share this because I had lost it a couple of weeks ago and then gained it back because of stressful times in my life. I can now feel good again about having my "35 pounds gone" badge.
I still have some stress but I am dealing with it better than ever before! I am trying to take care of me in all this mess. I ate well this week even though we went camping I did try to not pig out on junk food. I walked a lot when I was there and had a great time over all.
My mom is back in the hospital, oh wait, not now she was moved today......let me change that......she is now over in a nursing home for a couple of weeks this time till they can figure out if she is strong enough from her heart attack to withstand a back surgery. Crazy....no one seems to know any details and I am just staying out of it as much as I can to keep my sanity. Don't get me wrong...I love my mom and my family and I would be the first one down there finding out information and getting things done right for her but, you have to understand that's not what she wants....she loves the sympathy and attention so I back off and join the never ending circle of catch 22s.....if I do this, I'm wrong......if I don't do that, I'm wrong! So I am trying to keep my distance to take care of myself. I hope this doesn't sound too harsh.
More news...my friend with cancer is doing well. She has gotten herself a couple of really cute wigs and is moving on with life and dealing with things as they come....I'm so proud of her and how she is handling everything.
I have been real busy working out this week....we have a test tomorrow. I have been working hard at everything on it and I think I will be able to do it all and pass with good scores. I'm so excited that my friend is moving up to my class next week too. I think we will have a good summer working out together. Well, I better get off to bed to rest up for tomorrow's test. Wish me luck! :)
