Just Because I Haven't Posted In A While

Life has been quite hectic since my last post and just an update to let you know I still haven't found that willpower!

Speaking of willpower I will say that I've taken at least a step in that direction. I love reading Mom-O-Matic's blog (if I knew how to do that linky thing I'd have that blog name lit up so you could click on the blog name and check her out. But, since I'm quite ignorant when it comes to this blogging shit you'll just have to go to http://www.mom-o-matic.blogspot.com/) anyway, she has this future MILF swap (the name cracks me up) going on to try to motivate us blog reading woman to shed some pounds together. So, just to let you know I've signed up for that and am hoping this will help me along the way. I've also pulled out my WW materials and am going to try to give that a go again. Wish this food loving chick luck!

On another note. I've been noticing that the family picture that I have on my blog is starting to look quite outdated. "The boy" so looks like a little boy in that picture not the major teenager that he looks like now. I can hardly believe he will be turning 13 in November. He has a major mustache growing above his lip and he can look me in the eyes now. He is also so tall and thin, what a difference a year has made. It is so sad to see him growing, but I'm also so proud of the young man he is becoming. I hate to sound braggy but he really is such a nice young man and is becoming such a sports stud!

"The girl" has been keeping our home full of entertainment and drama. She has even changed so much since the picture. She's got the breast thing going on (she probably wouldn't be very happy to know that I posted that) and has finally got it through her head that she has to wear a bra everyday not just when she feels the need. The girl likes to keep me on my toes with her mouth but I'm putting her through my boot camp right now and she seems to finally be getting the clue that I'm the Mom not her!! The one thing about this darling girl is she never stays mad at me. Her life is so full of song and dance. I mean that literally, she is constantly flitting around here with a smile on her face singing some song which in return makes me smile and brings music to my world everyday.

"The husband" hasn't changed much other than he's costing us money now. Putting gasoline in your new turbo diesel truck and did I mention NEW ends up costing this family lots of money!!! So now he's trying to think of ways to save money to make up for the mistake. Like, how about we don't camp those few weekends we are planning because it will save us money (and keep in mind we just got a new camper that we've only got to camp in once and we're making payments on so we really should get some use out of it). Is he nuts? The Boy, The Girl and I didn't make that mistake!! I know I sound as if I'm being mean about this but I'm not. He was harder on himself about it than I. I simply said shit happens! In the big scope of life this is nothing. I still love him tons and did I mention what a great husband and father he is!!

And last but not least. As far as I go. I haven't changed a whole lot since the picture, of course I've probably added a few pounds but I can still fit into the pants I have on in the photo! I've just been busy being a mom, changing tons of shitty day care diapers and dealing with a little day care child that I must not be feeding well enough because she wants to keep chewing on the other children! Stop it will you!!

I suppose this is enough nonsense for now. I'll be sure to keep you posted on my search for willpower ( is that one word or two?).

Oh no, I forgot "The dog". She is still licking her paws til they bleed and dragging her ass on my carpeting! Got to love her!
