Still moving on



Again two weeks have passed by.  And even in those two weeks a lot has happened. 

Daughter had baby two weeks early.  I thank God she (granddaughter #2) is doing much better now, she is tiny but strong.  Also demolishing has started with the house.  Unfortunately during the ripping out of stuff, they (the contractors) had a mishap, which resulted in my rec room (finished basement) got flooded with two inches of water.  So with that the rug has now been ripped out.  So for right now, the bathroom on the second floor is completely gutted as also the kitchen on the first floor plus the rug removed in the basement.  Things are so crazy, I dread when they are done and then the cleaning process will begin.   Lucky me.

As for my weight, I am so tired of gaining, I am trying back again with journaling my food.  I will admit with the baby plus I too had a bit of a worry.  I needed to go and get a needle biopsy in the breast but I am thrilled that the report came back as benign.  So trying to keep things in perspective, the house is what it is and I will eventually get it back to where it should be.  

So with all of that I am trying to stay on the right path of healthy eating.  

Now if I can only get my sciatica nerve back to where it should be, then possible things would be really good.  Too much asking?   Nah not enough praying. 

Until later.

Time is flying

Wow the time is flying by.  
This past Sunday I had a baby shower for my daughter and son-in-law.  Yes, it was a Jack n Jill baby shower.  We had a total of 90 guests.  Plus they did the revealing too, and we are having a little girl.  Whew, I am so glad it is over.  Maybe now I can get my life in somewhat a better path.  Well actually after this coming Monday.  Seems that with my prior cat-scans they (the doctors) saw a nodule in my right breast.  So this past Monday I went for more mammograms and ultrasounds.  So the decision has been made that this coming Monday I will go back for a needle biopsy.  I am saying so many prayers that all will be fine.  As a matter of fact, due to my chronic skin order condition, the doctor feels that this may be the cause of it all.  I am just praying that it is. The worse part is waiting for the pathologist report which will take 5 to 7 days.  I keep reminding myself it will be good, it will be good.   And with all of this, my birthday is sunday and I will be turning 60.  Wow what a great gift I am getting.......NOT. 
Until later.

Reporting again...

Trying to get back on track is certainly no easy task.  I know I make many excuses to not do it. I know I convince myself that these excuses are valid.  I also know that my head is not in the game.  Game?  It really isn't a game, it is a way of life.  Is life a game?  Sometimes I wonder.  Also too I feel I no longer want to play games.  Ok heading in a different direction here.  Focus, focus.  I seem to be finding out that I no longer can handle many situations/events/problems on one plate.  I am feeling my age, primary because of my weight.  I am feeling tired, sore, achy, exhausted, etc.  Perhaps maybe the weather, I may have turned into one of those people who doesn't like the long dark hours and reaches for sunshine.  Anyhow, the past week was sort of ok with eating.  I seem to do really well during the week, especially at work.  I pack my breakfast and lunch for work.  It is just coming home and making dinners.  Also, it doesn't help to not have a functional kitchen.  The contractors are suppose to start with the kitchen on March 14th.  Which I am glad, it is the day after the baby shower.  I really didn't need to have dust all over the baby shower items, which I do have a lot of.  My latest favorite thing right now is French Vanilla tea.  Hmmmmm....it is so good, it almost feels like having a dessert. It smells divine.  As they say baby steps for permanent changes.  So hopefully this maybe one of them.  I also know I am babbling on and on.  I guess because I am tired, didn't sleep too well last night.  Well need to start with dinner, daughter and hubby are coming over, once they are done with their hospital class and tour.  Only four more weeks until the wee one is born.  Getting excited.
Well here is wishing for a happy, healthy week.
Many blessings
Until later......................
