Well as  you can tell My Family is running around naked! Not really They have enough clothes that I do not have to do laundry every week and They do know how to run the washer and dryer themselves. But for 6 months MOM as been the goto person and takes care of all problems! Transportation, laundry, cleaning up after everyone, cleaning the house, cooking…….. The list goes on. I am sure everyone knows it all to well. Anyway now MOM is working and they are all in a panic! There friends are comming over and the house is dusty. (I have 2 boys) The baseball game is tonight and I have no pants. Whats for dinner? And my personal favorite Hunny have you done laundry lately? I have no white socks.

Well because of my work schedula I can no longer take the kids to school. Hubby does that now! Yeah !I just pick them up

 And then It starts They then discover the dog has no food! They need this or that and blah blah! until we rush off to baseball or karate (or both) Come home At 8:30pm or later get ready for bed then start all over again.

Don’t get me wrong I love the fact that I am working again. We neeed the money and I can use the time out of the house and exercise (running the long halls at work) But the  Time is not there for me to blog, chart, eat right, and retrain the family to think for themselves,Use the appliances again, to pick up a swiffer and dust, and To wipe there own noses. I am just going to have to work it out and delegate again. And be a selfish bitch and take my time.

I can do this! I can Do THIS! I CAN DO THIS! 

Thanks for all the love, support, info and smiles. I have lost another pound! Yeah!

I am feeling very blessed today!  New job starts, and 6 whole pounds gone!

Thanks,

Tiffany

I passed the test and so far no rash. Orientation Well I diffently know my name and date!lol Well to celebrate Hubby gave me a choice of where to have dinner. I had chili for lunch (leftover) so I picked subway. All the helpful advice was put to good use. checked the website and planed my meal before leaving the house. I am the only one who wanted subway so we hit Sonic( Yummy blasts) I had to help hubby say no to them! He was not eating from there anyway!lol He picked KFC. I stuck to plan and got the veggie salad w/ ranch dressing.  

Well to be able to start my new job (as a CNA) I had to jump through somemore hoops. I last week had to have a PPD (TB test) , and A MMR Tighter (gave to tubes of blood to be tested because no shot record…) Well the titer showed I was not immune to mumps. SOO I had to get the MMR Vac. Then a 2nd PPD. Now I know Why my kids slept all day and night and were cranky after shots. It burns and makes you feel like crap! So I did not surrender to my bed and pushed on thru the day. Granted not fast but I did make it. Even though I did not exercise I stayed well within my caloire limits and did get all my water in.

I hope this does not last long and I don’t get a rash!

Going to have to take a test (to prove I can Handle the job) and have orientation Friday. Then Maybe I can finally start work after 2 weeks of jumping thru hoops!

Have a blessed Friday!

Well I had hoped to clean the house (dust and Vacume) but got sidetracted and cleaned out the storage closets instead. Had lunch with hubby at home planned to have chicken for dinner. Not so much! While doing the running around with the kids and the other household stuff. The dinner hour (late as usual) creeped up on me. Me and Hubby decided to eat seafood. So each of us picked up a kid and met at the resturant.

Got there starved. And the waitress sets down the hushpuppies YUMMM! And the butter container  with the menus. Already knew what I wanted, she took her time coming back. Before I knew it 3 hushpuppies with butter gone and I was reaching for another when Hubby asks now how are you going to post that. Realizing what it did  I stopped and had him put the evil butter and hushpuppies on the other side of the table. You know out of my reach! He is so helpful.  Normally the whole bowl and 3 things of butter would have easily made it in before I would have realized.

Well Then I ordered a salad and crablegs. I did not use the 3 containers of butter she brought out or nor did I eat the coldslaw that can with each plate (love coldslaw but very high in cals). Did not finish the crablegs, and could not finish the salad. Yeah my stomach must be shrinking!  About 3 weeks ago I could have easily ate all the crablegs, salad, coldslaw and hushpuppies.

I knew the cals were going to be high today.  So came home and worked out. So now I am tired sweaty and bloging late…..oh well . I will be picking myself up and dusting off tomarrow. Too tired now.

I did get my water in!

Can coffee and tea becounted as part of  your water intake? I know that when I did Jenny Craig you could count it for only 1/2 of your daily water intake. It did however have to be decafe and no sugar added . That was many years ago.  What is the thinking now?

My friend has a web page and she was blogging about comfort food. Hers was grilled cheese. Mine is chips. Any flavor will do. Reading her story made me think of why it is a comfort food.

My mom and I would go once a week to the food store and on the way home we would polish off 1 or 2 bags of chips (the store was 30 mins form the house) , listen to the radio or chat about the weeks events.  This was a good memory for me as a child. My mom and I did not get along well and now she has past on. I guess it is away of bringing back good memories.
