Well.........

.......I can't post that I have exercised to any degree, unless going from the basement to the second floor with lots of laundry counts! But can say that I have finally had enough of this, and have committed to going back to Weight Watchers on this coming Wednesday evening. Did it before.........it actually worked, got depressed, quit, gained it back.......plus 5 lbs. I think I will even post my dreaded weigh ins, that should be a sure incentive, if anyone actually reads this! Anyway, if I waited until I could actually tell you I'd exercised to post, still wouldn't be on here.

Today is my daughters 19th birthday. Where does the time go? She has gone from my little baby girl (well, she still is that) to a grown woman. She is one of my best friends, and when I look at her, I know for all of my mistakes, I have done something right. We are going to go to a casino for dinner (huge buffet that she has wanted to visit forever). HEY........WW doesn't start til Wednesday! It is 2am, so guess I will hit the hay. On work weeks, I would be getting up in 30 minutes.

*Today was a beautiful day, won't be very many more days this way as fall overcomes -- the trees are just starting to change, and it really is beautiful.

Will Someone Please....

...kick my ass!!! NO.......didn't get a walk in yesterday......or today! Why can't I get motivated? Any suggestions?

Ummmmmm back to the Chiefs.......well, unfortunately can't say we went to 3/1.......have to settle for 2/2. But feel much better about this past game. We showed some real heart........started out with a bang in the first half, then just sort of fizzled out. Eagles made some good adjustments, and by the time we started to adjust to them, it was to little to late. Oh well.......like I said, showed some heart, and at least half the game showed what we are capable of.

I have only one more day off, then back to the old grind. Guess I had better make the most of tomorrow, and hope I can get on here and say: "Guess what??? I actually exercised!!" We shall see, not overly impressed with myself in that arena at the moment......but have to start somewhere right??

I'm BAAAAAAACK

I have to say, I am doing much better at visiting my blog lately....good for me!

Tomorrow is another Chiefs game, and I am ready. My ranting/hurt feelings time has passed, guess we all have a bad game now and then right? Tomorrow we face the Eagles, and although McNabb is hurting, I think it will be quite a challenge. We do have home field advantage (loudest stadium in the NFL) so looking to move to 3/1 here at home.

I am moved to get my house work done today, so I can have tomorrow completely free....plus have put off the housework for 3 days (I work 8 - 10 hour days, then off for 6). Hubby is starting to give me the "What did you do all day??" look. To his credit, he hasn't actually spoken the words yet.

Something kind of sad; read one of my very best friends blogs today, and she is very busy, so like myself, they were a little far between entries. My point is, she was going through something very painful, and I didn't even know it. She never even shared it with me via the easy 'invite your friends to join' thing that we find in so many of our virtual communities. Guess I haven't been a great friend:( We haven't spoken for quite some time. We have fallen into the 'email every so often/ask about the family/yes I'm still breathing thing.' I moved here to Kansasa City, MO over 2 years ago, and was so delighted that I was going to be near my best friend. Several months after I moved here, she moved about an hour's drive away.....no big deal, what's an hour?? I guess it is quite a lot....as we never see one another anymore.

Something new for me to comtemplate.....when did I get this way?? Was it suddenly, or has it just gradually happened? I am betting on the second, think I just sort of eased into the hermit existence I now think of as normal. AND -- ya know what??? It has not been a good thing!! I am in the worse physical shape of my life. I no longer feel good about myself, when my husband tells me I'm beautiful, I am sure down deep that he is 'just being nice.' I can sometimes(?) be very stubborn, but you know what??? I just this very moment figured out something!! As much as I would like to think it is, it can't be 'everybody else.' I put myself just where I sit today, and it's about Damn time I do something about it!

I am making a promise to myself, the very least I can do is get off my big butt, and get the hell out of the house.......to start, I am going to walk at least 30 minutes per day (actually gonna go outside to do it too!).
I will keep track of operation 'find me' right here on my trusty blog. Wish me luck!! When you are at the bottom, there is only one way to go right?
