not feeling so positive
So, DH is away on his trip. Yesterday was an okay day for me. I stayed on points (accept for finishing off the french fried that the kids didn't eat, but that's what the points allowance is for right). But I didn't excercise. Plus, I didn't get much sleep last night b/c I never sleep well without my sweetie next to me. And I was worried b/c he didn't call when he landed so I figured that his flight was delayed. but then his mom called and said that she hadn't heard from him (he's a little bit of a momma's boy) and was worried b/c she had seen on the news that the weather was really bad where he was going. So then I started freaking out and imagining all the bad things that could have happened to him. So I ate 2 packages of those 100 calorie chocolate cupcakes ( thank goodness I had the points for them). What can I say? I stress and then I eat chocolate. It's a good thing that he called just as I was polishing off the second package, or who knows what would have happened! :)
So, this morning after getting DS off to school and already refereeing fights between the other 2 (Dora saves me again). I am tired and grouchy and do not want to excercise. So there!! my plan is to do the eliptical after the kids are in bed tonight. Did I say that the eliptical has a tetris type game on it that you can play while you run? It is pretty cool. Or maybe we will walk to get the mail today, it is about a quarter mile away, and dd has wanted to ride her bike. I'm not hungry so that is a good thing.

Not positive, but funny !
Hi ya
Nice to hear from you. I know what it's like when the other half goes away. I am the same at bed times, it's just not natural is it !!
He is going skiing in March. When he went last time I ended up watching a programme on TV about avalanche's !! I wish I hadn't
But he got home safe and sound, and I kept myself busy decorating, so I didn't hit the chocolate too often (just the alcohol !!)
I do understand you grabbing for the chocolate, it is as if you have to give yourself a treat when you feel you are missing out on something, to try to make yourself feel better. I bet they tasted great whilst you ate them, but not so great afterwards, not fair is it !
So, whats it going to be ? a game of Tetris on the Eliptical or a run with your littlen on her bike ? I wonder if you're going to say neither ?? 
Well, today I am feeling a bit negative too, but that will soon change when I go to see my sister tonight. She wants to try WW, but she doesn't want to go to class, so I am going to show her the ropes. Fingers crossed it works for her !
I hope you manage to get back on track, so when your hubby gets home you are all cheerful, and feeling pleased with yourself, with lots of energy to say 'hi' to him 
Take care bud

Did you go to WW yesterday ?
I am guessing perhaps you did, but the outcome wasn't too good, hence you're not on here - but I will prefer to be positive - fingers crossed !! 
Is hubby back ? That must make you feel better ?
Thinking of you
