I could write for months about all the crazy crap we do and say to each other, but this one really IS blog worthy ...
I finished folding another load of laundry, I called Tasha in to get hers to put it away...she said "Again!" all snotty like and sighed...I said "Yes, AGAIN!" all snotty like and sighed back....she took her pile and went off towards her room muttering...I caught this part - "I think my mom needs a damn happy pill or something, YES, I said a HAPPY pill!" .... WTH?!?!

Pictures...
I hate pictures of myself. Period. I have since the winter of 1988 when I was pregnant with Devin...Well, there are a few from 1990, 1992 and 1996-97 that are fine, at least I'm just a little overweight in them, not morbidly obese...what the hell happened to me? I feel like I'm lost and drowning inside another person, ok, let's face it, 2 OTHER people...
This morning I was sitting here looking at some photo's thinking I should scrapbook a while...no way, no way in hell are THESE pictures going to be how people remember me! I came to this conclusipn after looking at one and thinking - "I sure hope I don't fall over on a sloped street, there'so telling where I'd stop"....not.good.
I'm going to go drag the exercise bike in off the porch, I can read and peddle, watch tv and peddle, or simply cry and peddle like I did on Thursday.....as long as I'm moving I really don't care how....

Hunting that elusive healthy body....
So, we all know that I'm all about change lately...BIG change....hell, if you're going to finally tackle the obstacles you've created in your life you might as well do the biggest ones first, right? I figure if I get the big ones out of the way then the small ones will just kind of fall into placed, ok, so I'm HOPING....
Anyhow, as all of my life obstacles go, I go big or don't go at all....I quit smoking the first part of March, got my GED the end of March, Enrolled in college in April, started in August, and now, in October, I've joined a mom's group version of the 'Biggest Loser', 12 weeks to lose as big of a percentage as you can, the grand prize is $360...if I win I am buying a treadmill with the money, if I lose I am buying Dairy Queen.
I weighed in yesterday (10/20), their scale is WAY heavier than mine, but for the sake of argument, and because that scale will determine the outcome, we'll use their weight....288....yep, that officially makes my weight GAIN THIS YEAR 60 pounds, yes, I said SIXTY pounds, since the end of March...good thing that in January and February I LOST 25 huh? Frick.
So, anyhow, this is Day 1 and I have some catching up to do since this is Thursday and most of the others started on Monday or Tuesday....
Week 1, Day 1....Biked 4 miles, walked 4 miles. Need to eat more often throughout the day, I am ravenous from not eating all day! Also need to drink more water, every single day!
