Hi again!!

Well, have had a weird evening, but did make a good dinner. Ted went to bed early, wasn’t feeling well. Was too early for me so I thought I would come on and say hi. Our dinner was real good made cube steak with salsa on top, real good.

Well, I think my cds came in but I can’t get them until Saturday. The package was too big to put in my mailbox, so they are in the office. No one is home here until they are closed during the week. Oh well.

Ok, I AGAIN need some input. They are talking about offerinf 4 10 hour days at work and 3 days off, at first I was excited about it, but I know how tired in the evenings I am now. So not sure if I should do it. Some adavantages are: I would have a weekday day off for dr appts and stuff with mom and dad. More time at home. On the other side, since I ride the bus, I wouldn’t be getting home at nite until around 8! So I would only  have a couple of hours to be up until bed time! I already get up at 4:15, so that wouldn’t change. What do you think?

I am doing good, feel more centered after the weekend. Ted was kind of a grumpy bear tonite, but he was tired and not feeling good. So, I couldn’t get his input.

Well, a good friend has mentioned a book for me to read about a woman who lost alot of weight and is dealing with the issues of maintenance, and I’m hoping to get some real insight on how to deal with all the emotional changes that come from doing this. I think it would help. Kinda like a makeover of my insides, too. I think it will help and hopefully help me relate better to my loved ones.

Well, I am disappointed that mom is not going to the dr, I really need to work on that, and talk to dad. Maybe he can make her see sense. I think she just doesn’t want to face being older, and I feel for her. I can’t force her to go, but she is not going to get better unless something is done, and that means dad can’t come home yet :(

I felt kind funny not doing any workouts tonite, but it was kinda nice. But Jillian kicked my butt this morning!

I will keep that up for sure, want to get to level 3 someday, but for now level 2 is plenty, she works you hard, but I love it!

Ok, I am gonna read some blogs and see what I missed, love you all, good nite!

    I’d love to give you some input on the hour change at work. My husband has worked both types, the traditional, the 12 hour grind, and the 4- 10 hour days. Personally I loved the 4 - 10 hour week. You are right, it gives you 1 weekday which allows you to schedule all your drs. appts. and moms and dads, and everything else you might need to accomplish during the weekdays.

    Yuppers, you’ll be tired on those 4 days, but just think….3 DAYS OFF!!! YIPPEE!!! personally for me it works, but you would know best what works for you.

    You mentioned getting home so late at night…maybe that in itself is a detereant. You won’t have any time in the evenings.

    Such a challenging decision Kama. I’m also sorry Mom is reluctant about going to the doctor. I imagine she is afraid, but I’m so sorry Dad isn’t home yet also.

    You poor thing, you have so much on your plate. I’ll keep you all in my prayers…you are still such a hero to me :) You look great and you are ALWAYS there for your buddys…Love ya lots!!!

    I am sad to hear that your mom is not feeling well, what is ailing her? if you do not mind my asking? i used to be afraid to go to the doctors when I smoked because I was convinced they would find something on my lungs. My dad died from lung cancer. Thank God I have not smoked for 15 years now. That is part of the reason for my weight gain. I know how hard it is to get someone to go the doctors when they are afraid. Maybe you can tell your mom often that she would be doing it for everyone else also, those people in her life, like you who love her very much and want her around for a long time to come. My children got to me that way, it’s worth a try. Meanwhile I will pray that both your mom and dad continue to be with you.
