Hubby and I had a wonderful date last night. We took the kids to a parks & rec event and went and spent 3 hours just connecting with each other. It doesn't even matter what we were talking about...it was just us with no kids, phones, computers, house, bills, etc. We both really enjoy our dates. So very nice....but I went over calories.

I had a great workout with the trainer at the gym this mor...

So, this week wasn't a complete loss even though I didn't really exercise. I lost three pounds. Nice. My energy is starting to return and we gave the house a thorough cleaning last night.

I don't like traveling. The more I do, the more I dislike it. I had to make a day trip to Brownsville, TX yesterday. Brownsville, TX might as well be part of Mexico. Even Walgreens had spanish signs on the building. lol. The business I went to answers their phone in Spanish, writes e-mail in Spanish, and they all speak Spanish. No one there knew English very well and it was extremely difficult to relay to them what was wrong with their system. What I do is very technical, and they only k...

I finally started feeling better yesterday and I am almost back to my normal self today-FINALLY!!!!!

I started back at the gym the day after Thanksgiving and signed up for 5 of their 1/2 hour sessions of personal training just to get going in the right direction, again. My last one was last week and I signed up for 11 more 1 hour sessions. The first one of those was this morning and it felt great.

I had a hard time coming to terms with my 35 pound gain, but I have decided that it wil...
