Wow. Seems like forever since I have been on OH. I had my 5 year check up last month and everything seems to be just fine. I am maintaining my weight at about 145. At 5'9 I feel I am right where I want to be. Still fit into a size 6 so I am OK with that!I lost my brother July 14 in a ATV accident. It has been a tough couple of months and I haven't been making a lot of good food choices not to mention the red wine. He was down syndrome and a very special part of our whole community. We miss him terribly but have been taking it day by day. The next couple of months are going to be especially hard. The first hunting season without him and our first Christmas without him. He always loved those times of the year and he will be missed so much.
Summer flew by as it always does and I'm not really looking forward to the deep freeze and snow. Hoping we can plan a family vacation this winter to get out of it for awhile but we will just have to see how things go. I quit my job in May of 2009 at the travel agency I was working for for 14 years and have now started my own home-based agency and it's a little slow off the get go but I am hoping now that it's cooling off people are gonna start thinking of vacations! I love being home for the boys when they get on the bus in the morning and off at night. Lance just recently stopped working out of town for the pipeline. Hard to believe he'd been on the road for 7 years. It's is good to have him home and be able to sit down and have dinner every night as a family. Also I know the boys missed him like crazy and he hated missing out on all their activities. So . . . . All in all life is good, we are dealing with the loss of Darren and living for the moment. I still think that GB was the best thing I ever did for myself. I don't know if I'd be here today if I had not done it. Good luck to all! Take care.
