I fell off of the wagon...The healthy eating/diet wagon that is...I caved to the stress that I have been surrounded by lately and ate accordingly.... Therefore, I have gained 20 pounds of the 100 that I worked SO HARD to lose!!!

Well, I went back to my doctor today and talked with her about it. She agreed to help me out, but also told me that this cycle is NO GOOD. I know this, but just do not know HOW to not get caught in it. It is vicious. How do I avoid being in this cycle for the next 40 years??? I know that I need to change eating habits, but that is so HARD at my age. Bottom line is that I am just NOT a veggie eater and that is a TOUGH thing to just start to like at my age... Veggies are such a good filler...

I guess the silver lining here is that I caught myself only 20 lbs up and wanted to do something rather than waiting till I gained all 100 and undid all of that work, but I got rid of all of the BIG clothes. So, I CAN'T be that size again. It is NOT an option....

She just doesn't get it....

I am worried about Tobey and his upcoming surgery. I cannot help it. What am I supposed to do? So, I have posted a thing ot two on facebook. I guess my sister has read them because she calls me this morning. "You just need to stop worrying about Tobey." "This is his umpteenth surgery." "It is all routine. No big deal." Yea. That is real easy for her to say.

Just REALLY makes me want to hurt her. REALLY. Surgery is NOT routine. I do not care HOW MANY of them he has had. The whole family is thrown in an upheavel, my child is put under general anesthesia, he will be spending a week in the hospital and this is NOT just a simple little thing! I quickly informed her of that. Why does she even have to comment? It is easier for me when she just ignores my life. But, when she says assinine things like this, it makes it that much worse! Is she that cold? That uncaring? Or just that clueless? The answer is none of the above. She is in Kim's world, and therefore none of this means a damn thing to her since it does not affect her world...

Some people really should be mute...

Does she REALLY think that I am going to jump for joy and be happy?

My sister calls me yesterday to explain to me just WHY she changed her cellphone number. Apparently, she told my BIL that she had finally had it (for the umpteenth time) and that she was going to call the attorney and file for divorce. Well, she claims that after that he was a changed man.... :0 Sorry, but I am not a believer. He has been an ass for the past year. Putting her through literal hell. All because HE kissed someone and got caught. Supposedly, HE was the one that could not forgive himself. My sister had forgiven him long ago and it was him that was unable to forgive himself. So, he was making all of their lives miserable. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.... Per their conversation he admits that said other party had still attempted to contact him 1/2 a dozen times through text messages and asks my sister if she would be happy if he changed his cell#? She agrees and that was what led to the # changes....

So, she goes on to tell me that he is back to the man she married. "Oh, this is what I have waited a year for." I am sorry, but am I the only idiot here? I see my sister as a complete SUCKER! My BIL has her RIGHT WHERE HE WANTS HER! He will never go anywhere. Would you? After the way he strung her about for the past year, he now knows that he can do just about anything and she will hang on. No, I am sorry. Having $$ is not that important to me. Not to mention HOW it makes her look. Pathetic, sad, and desperate.

She was not very happy when I sad "I hope his behavior lasts...." Yeah, reality sometimes sucks, doesn't it??

Now, she is moving to my side of town. Honestly, I don't want her. Sounds mean, but I do not want the drama that her life and husband bring. She is fine on her side of Houston....Of course, she is moving into the wealthy side of Katy which is so typical and just like her so that she can rub in all of the things that she has that I cannot afford....

Wait...I am supposed to be happy, aren't I?

Who Would Have Guessed?

These little things that caused me so much stress, havoc, and worry would be an actual worthwhile imvestment? Well, I have to admit that they have been. They have been WONDERFUL! Taylar and Baylee BOTH love them! Actually, Brennyn finds them quite entertaining too! :) Usually, the latest and greatest gadgets are NEVER worth the hype that they have wreaked, but these have shown to be in my house. The girls have played with them for hours a day since getting them for Christmas. Baylee carries them all around, tucks them in at night and always makes sure that she knows where all 4 of hers are at all times! :) Now, I will say, that Brennyn does try, at times, to run them over with his cars or bike and he has been caught trying to make his "Spike" the dinosaur try and eat them, but otherwise he plays with them too! :)

It is nice to see your stress and fret pay off in a good way. So many times, the kids do not even appreciate what we go through for the toys that they just HAVE to have, Well, this time, they are and I must admit that it is nice! :)
