blah....I have been away so long.....every time I think about getting on and posting I never seem to really just do it! 
This week is spring break week. 
It has been a busy busy week so far! Last weekend DH and I worked on the veggie garden! We have all the beds built, dirt in and last weekend we all put the veggies in the ground! I can not wait until I am able to go outside and pick my veggies for my salad FRESH! 
Been doing WW points and keeping up with it pretty good! It really is the only thing that has helped me....being able to track what I eat. Went for a walk this morning
while DD rode her bike...well really I went for a drag. The chocolate lab dang near dragged me the whole time until he finally got tired! Did the Wii with DD and that was fun. Now I am back to cleaning up the house. A serious clean! DEEP clean....I hate it. I am in the kitchen right now....need to clean out the pantry and the fridge....YUK! But at least it is getting organized and that is good. 
I will try my best to get on once a day. DD had a ton of projects and we are done with them. She starts golf lessons this saturday and she is so excited! She has been doing a little after school program with a golf place and they tell me she is rather good! We will see! I would love to learn to play also!
Ok...back to cleaning! Hope everyone is doing good! I will try to look through some posts tonight but I do hope everyone is doing well.

Unfortunately my daughter has been sick all week. I have not been sleeping well because I am getting up and checking on her almost every hour I swear! Her fever broke two days ago (yea!) but now she is so congested, and coughing all night long. I kept her home again today. she is doing MUCH better but felt like she needed another day of rest. If only she would drink more water
I have been doing really well on my eating. Probably because I have been at home! LOL! I did eat a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich yesterday for lunch. My weakness! 
I have done a few workouts and today I wanted to get DD out for a small walk but I am thinking probably not a good idea! She is begging me to take her to Panera Bread for some soup in a sourdough bread bowl. I might take her....she took a mid morning nap and seems to have gotten an energy boast!
Ok...so I am going on and on about DD! Today I am going to weigh in! Been loving my little application on my phone! It reminded me today to weigh in. I am still going back and forth with trying to decide if I want to get back to the WW Online....Not sure what is holding me back as I know how well I do on it.
Our trip to Disney world is in July and I would really like to be in better shape and not tired and feeling like yuk the whole time. Maybe I will take DD to town get some soup for her and salad for myself and then come home and get in a good workout! I could count all the cleaning I have been doing since I have been home from work these last few days
Hope everyone is doing good. I need to take some time to get caught up on folks posts!!!!
I will try to check in later this evening!

Had a GREAT weekend. Got a lot of exercise in and ate really good! Very proud of myself. We went for a bike ride today but ended up walking the last 1/2 mile. DD started to feel sick and was getting a headache. Now she is running a slight fever and not feeling well at all. I really hope she is not getting the flu. Tomorrow is her Valentine party and she might have to miss it...she missed her Christmas party because she had the stomach flu. My poor little baby!
I did make Chocolate covered strawberries and I did eat 3 of them....BUT... I had an otherwise great day! LOL! I forgot for a moment about those!
Ok, DD is calling me....hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

It is called the Cardio Trainer. I love love love! I can add workouts on it, keep track of my calories with it (not perfect but close). OH! The on thing I love it when I do a walking workout. It actually tracks where and how far, fast I walked. It is really cool. I have to carry my phone with me while I walk but that is ok because I most always carry it anyway!
I swear, I must have seen like 50 of them on Friday walking around with their yellow boxes filled with pure heaven! I almost tackled one of them but I got control and just walked right on by. I am not sure what is going on with the chocolate craving I have but it I feel like I am getting a better handle on it! 
I do believe this is what has finally bitten me in the butt and got me moving again. So after posting all of this I think I will log back into WW and sign up again. I know they have an application for the phone so I have no excuse really! I did get a quick 30 minute workout in this morning...nothing big....just getting back on track slow so I do not wear myself out on working out to quick. Gosh I just remember how much I loved working out this summer. I think after my mom passed away things just got all mixed up in my head but I need to move on. I know my mom would have been so proud of me! Ok....better get going. DD has a piano lesson this morning!
Today was a good day! Well, I skipped breakfast and paid for it all morning! I did eat a really good salad at lunch though. Helped with the headache and tiredness I was dealing with all morning!
I think the headache is from the cedar count being high. That or the allergy medicine I am using. It is a nose spray.
Anywho.....back to the day...ate good all day. Skipped all of the kids coming up to me asking me to buy chocolate bars to support color guard, and band and this and that....*sigh*! I swear! They are driving me nuts! 
And it is the good chocolate bars that I use to sell when I was in school! LOL!
The next thing I need to work on is my sleep.
Have not been sleeping good. I know it is lack of routine exercise and I am sure a little bit of it is stress. DH has been working such long hours and works so hard. I have been worried about him. He has been stressed to the max at work and has been working such long hour days. I also am struggling to deal with a personal thing that happened that I think just threw me for a loop. I am sure we all deal with things like this. It has been interesting to me to see how it has effected my "healthy" lifestyle I was getting back on track with things after my mom passed away. But then this "thing" happened and I felt like I was letting it get the best of me, eating out of control again, not working out. Laying in bed at night "thinking"! Does anyone else do this....sit in bed and "replay" things in your mind. "Oh I should have said this or should have done that! What if I had not said that or done that?!"
I do feel like I am getting back to myself. I had a birthday last week. My first birthday since my mom passed away. It was much harder than I thought it would be but at the same time it was kind of a good thing. Call me crazy but I think my mom is helping me "move on" from the last few months of, well to be honest, the last few months of hell!!
Ok, so I am feeling like I am getting to deep now and must move on! I like it when I am much lighter! LOL! OH.... I am down another pound this week in the biggest loser contest at work. NOT bad for someone who was not really trying very hard!
I am off to bed...tired and have a busy busy day tomorrow!
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I will try to get on tomorrow with an update but I am not making any promises!!

Is that how you spell it??? Anywho, I have not been very good the last week. Eat, eat, and eat some more. Stress I think. I have been stressed to the MAX with way to much stuff. I am trying really hard to stop with the worrying/thinking about everything. *sigh* it is hard. LOL! I really do think that is why I am eating so poorly. I need to go to yoga or something...or meditate! I will be glad when this month is over. It has been a crap filled month, personal life and work life.......ok, I am off my soap box. Time to try and forget and move on. So sorry, hate to complain, esp. on here! I just do not have anyone else to complain to! LOL!
I have not been really that bad but not really good either. I passed on birthday cake at work but only because I knew I was taking my sister out to dinner for her birthday! AND I bought her a double chocolate fudge cake......ohhhhhh........but she took the cake home with her!
I really want to try to eat more veggies and fruit and less meat. More fish. My bosses brother has diabetes, has had it his whole adult life. He now only eats fruits, veggies and beans, no sugar, dairy or meat. He has lost over 10 pounds in the two weeks he has been eating this new way and his blood sugar has never been so low in his whole adult life!!! It really made me start to think.
The one thing I plan on cutting out not only in my diet but DH and DD is processed food. AND going out to eat. (only for special special occasions!) I am going to cut out the sugars and really try to stick with veggies and fruit. I would like to try and cut out most of the meats and go more with fish. DD loves fish.
Have not weighed in for Biggest Loser at work this week. We have to weigh in with the school nurse and she has been so busy! Flu season and some nasty stomach bug is going around. Every time I go to her office the poor thing is just packed full with kids. Might skip this week, just depends I guess.
Ok, I guess I am going to head to the shower and go to bed. DH comes home and works on the computer for at least 2 hours each night. I am tired of staying up with him.....he likes to unwind but he ends up talking about work...blah blah blah......time to meditate! LOL!

Well today was mixed with highs and lows! 
LOL! I checked in for the biggest loser at work so that was a high! But I weighed in and that was a low!
I am back up to 206!! *sigh* Ok, well...I am not going to let it get me down. Keep on keeping on....
Even though I did NOT want to go to the gym today I did!
I am still REALLY sore but I got on the treadmill and walked for 30 minutes while DD did youthfit. I felt much better until I got in the car and sat for 25 minutes on the ride home. I couldn't get out of the car! LOL! I can't wait to see what tomorrows class will bring.
Ate great today. I just can not seem to make time to do my WW journal. I really really need to get that a number one deal.
It is going to be really cold here tonight (down into the teens) I need to help DH drip the outside faucets and such. I hate the cold weather! 
Whole reason I moved to Texas! Was born and raised in Pa but moved to Texas 20+ years ago. Do not miss Pa AT ALL to be honest. Seems like since my mom passed away thoughts of going back home are even more sad. I do have a lot of family that still live up in Pa. DH just found out he might be working in New York this summer. Suggested DD and I come up maybe and then if it times out right to a family reunion planned. Not sure it will happen. To many things have happened the last week or so. I would not even feel welcomed by some but THAT is a whole other story! Life...crazy sometimes isn't it!
Ok, time to try and stand up, been sitting for about 20 minutes! The legs are going to burn. Today it is a 'good' pain just like y'all said...but it still is a pain. I even went for the muscle relaxers....it didn't work! Oh...DH is getting on his jacket. Time to go out in the cold! Oh joy.....
TTFN!
