Crazy Week but What Else is New
on April 12, 2007 10:59 am
I uploaded some new pictures from Easter today.  I added a new album just to show the weight loss because the other one was getting too chaotic.  

Anyway, this week my youngest broke her arm when jumping on the trampoline.  Her cousin jumped right on her forearm and broke both bones.  She had to be put under so it could be set.  She was a trooper.  Of course now she wants tons of sympathy and is milking this for all its worth.  I don't blame her - I would be doing the same thing!!  
Some people have given me grief about the trampoline but I don't care.  I could lock my kids up and they would never get hurt.  I choose not to do that.  I dont like it when they get hurt but I am glad that they are exploring new things.  Pain is a part of the learning process.  They need to accept that now so they do not fear the pain but embrace the infinate possibilities that are worth experiencing discomfort.  
There is a great Keb Mo' song called Victims of Comfort.  I am so that person and fight against it all the time.  That is what got me to the place of obesity.  I fight complacency all the time.  I refuse to allow my family to follow in the same path of destruction that I did for such a long time.

Now my daughter is learing some valuable lessons.  She is learing to overcome adversity with joy by discovering all she can do with a cast.  ( She CAN make her bed and pick up her room).  She is also learing that there is a reason for the rules like - " One person jumping at a time."  

See.... Mom is not crazy!

Star Wars, Watergate, Disco,...

That's right everyone!  I finally made it to the Seventies!!!  I woke up this morning at 179.2.  I thought I would never get out of the eighties but I am finally out.  

My weight  loss has been slow compared to others but I am losing!!!  

The other milestone is that I have lost 100 lbs total now.  Now this is not all since the surgery but it is still gone.  It took me 10 years to lose the first 50 and 5 months to lose that last 50. (Give or take. More like 45/55)  

I am so thankful for you all and you continuing support.  I am a faithful lurker and love to read the board every night.  Even though I don't post a lot, know that you are in my prayers.

Snow day and Flying Saucers
on February 4, 2007 1:18 pm
We had our second snow day here in Arkansas and we took the kids sledding.  I have not been on a sled in years but my kids forced me on.  Can you believe that my bottom actually fit in a flying saucer with NO spillage!!!!  (you know, the butt hanging over the edge thing)  I flew down that hill and I did not give that sled up until the kids demanded it back.  They could not believe there eyes.  I felt so good!!!  I was barely winded climbing that hill.  Now I am thawing out but have a grin ear to ear.
