Still struggling but totally different this time….

I know, I’ve been a pain in all your butts and not doing to well with this weight loss forum but since my blog isn’t just weight loss I can still be here and plug along.

I am doing just fine with Mike being gone. I have my moments but I am much better at dealing with my issues and learning to let go. In fact I think I can handle this….at least the 10 days gone, weekend home and then gone again. Not saying anything about when college starts.

My struggles are with finding time. I need to learn to manage my time a bit better because I’m out of the house at 5:30 to drive bus, home at 8:30 for daycare, back out of the house at 2:30 and not back home until 6:30. By time I have finished up the chores it’s 8:00 and I still haven’t taken the time to eat. I was so cold when I got home last night I skipped eating and went to the bath tub and just soaked. Finished that got a load of clothes in and out of the dryer and it was bed time. I’m usually in by 7:30 but by then it’s to late to exercise because I need to be in bed by 10:00 so I can do this all over again. I am so missing my running and exercising so much this week but I don’t have the energy and I don’t have the energy because I’m missing my workouts. UGH!!!! I have had 3 weeks of this schedule and it looks like next week will calm down so I can get back to my exercises but it sure doesn’t help with this week. No exercise and sitting in a bus makes for not a single pound lost and it’s not cuz of the food because I’d have to eat to count that. Oh I eat but a banana here, a quick bowl of oatmeal there, a decent lunch and then a hit and miss dinner. It’s me, I know it and I have to plan things out better but when you’re an on-call sub you just never know what your schedule will be. This is just the beginning so I know that I’ll get a plan figured out and a life style that’s more manageable but for now, UGH!!!

Reading, well I haven’t even touched a book or magazine except my romance novel I read while waiting in the bus yesterday which in hindsight I should of had my other book with but I have a bag I keep packed for trips/activities and just grab and go when they call and that is what’s in my bag.

I have visited most of you once this week but haven’t been back since Monday and I apologize for that. I’m not much of a supporter again. I did try and use my itouch yesterday but couldn’t get any service where I was so that didn’t work out. Just another excuse I guess. Sorry.

This week I am not going to do my update early like I usually do. I’m going to take the extra couple of days and get some exercise in this weekend and some good eating's and hope that when I do my E2E update I can say things are better.

So there’s my midweek update. Nothing grand or even worth chatting about but part of the challenge rules.

I hope you all are doing so much better then I am and getting it done. Getting to be the happy and healthy peoples you really want to be. Take care my friends and God Bless!!
