Still Losing

I am so so sorry that I have been soooooooooooooooooo long in posting. My life has been a zoo lately with my two teenage boys and school. I am down to 248 pounds ... yipee ... almost half way to my goal! I have been using the alli program along with weight watchers pretty regularly. The weekends are tough because we are on the road alot with my son's travel baseball team. I'll add more in a bit ... but I wanted to let you all know that I haven't bailed on the weight loss struggle.

Ok, I have a few minutes before I need to hit the hay. You are probably wondering just how busy can her live really be that she can' t spare a few minutes to post a quick blog. Let me share with you how my day tends to run. I am up at 5:30 and out the door by 5:45 to run, for lack of better terms, the father of my boys 30 minutes (halfway to work) to meet his ride. Since the bozo can't seem to keep his alcoholism at bay it seems that everyone suffers but him. I arrive back at home at about 6:45 and then run my older son to school. Back at the house by 7:00 for a quick shower and to get ready for work. Out the door by 7:30 for school. (On days when I have to substitute for our morning tutorial program, my day starts earlier and I head right to school after dropping off my older son.) I teach all day, run home to throw dinner in the crock pot and have to leave again at 4:30 to drive again 30 miles both ways to get the x from work. I arrive back at the house at about 5:15 to run my younger son to baseball practice. Leave baseball at 6:45 to pick up the older son from football practice. We arrive home sometime between 7:30 and 8:00 PM. I quickly throw dinner from the crock pot onto plates and they scarf. I then fix my dinner that is usually different to help in my weight loss. We settle down near 9:00 for a nightly session of fighting over homework, etc. I straighten up the kitchen and get clothes ready for the next day. Then it is off to bed.

My schedule is so ridiculous that I have turned off our cable TV because we are never .. and I mean NEVER at home. I might watch the news in the morning or late night but that hardly warranted the $40+ for something we rarely used. So we just watch the three stations that we get without cable and we do fine.

So ... I hope you all understand why my posts are few and far between lately. I will try my best to post more often if I can.

Thanks for your understanding!!
