ok, I'm back, with a new goal

So I haven't posted here in over a month, but I am working on getting my focus back now, so I just have to move forward!

I have actually been just under 180lb. lately, so that is something for now.

My new goal is to have things more together so that I am not up all night (cleaning, making icing and cake, etc.) before Ryan's birthday party on October 11th. That is just under 4 weeks. I will also try to eat better and lose a pound or two or three before then, but I just want to slowly get things more organized. I think if I do that, the weight loss will come. Or at least I'll be more prepared. I HAVE been cooking more, and I'm focusing on not wasting food that we buy.

Anyway, about Oct 11th - so many times, we are vacuuming right before an event. Sometimes Marc will be finishing his shower as guests arrive. Not fun. It is SO stressful to do things like that, and I want that to be history!

I wrote "October 11th" on the chalkboard in our hall that we pass every time we go in and out of the garage. Hopefully that reminds us to take baby steps to get things ready ahead of time!!!
