****Added this section of the message....6/2/09 12:20 cst

I heard from the Dr today....My Dr is still awaiting my chart. My previous Dr/hospital said it will take 2-3 weeks until they can send my chart. So, I am glad it is not an emergency, hahaha. It may be a while before I get the hernia fixed, but that is okay. Thanks for any prayers you have said for me.

****Now the orginal message............

After a week off the internet.........what did I get done?????

Well, the first few days.....absolutely nothing...nada!!!!!

I found other things to fill my time.....like reading. Although finally by Thursday.....I HAD to get something done. I cleaned like a mad woman. We moved our kids into their new rooms. Girls moved together and my son has his own room. I decluttered.....and got rid of 10......yes that was not a typo.....garbage bags full of junk. Every room in my house was clean at one time, except my room. (My room is not usually in need of much cleaning as we spend very little time in there....although something is always being stored in there, which makes it looked cluttered.) Our new schedule for the new school year goes in effect today. (Lessons start tomorrow.) Hubby is a pastor and has no real weekend off, so we take Monday as family day.....school happens Tues-Sat here.

I loved being unplugged!! Except for checking email, it was a great break. As I look at our schedule for June, I could easily get overwhelmed. So for now I am taking a indefinate break from scheduled blogging. Meaning I will not be posting on any particular day. So, that means no WLW for now as well. I apologize if that upsets any of you...........although please feel free to host your own WLW meme.

For a while blogging has been a chore, a to-do, not a pleasure. It was just something else in my day planner. I felt pressured by the schedule and memes I participated in........that really sounds silly, but very true. I love blogging, but I do need to take the pressure off and go with the flow. I also will be cutting my time on other online activities. As well as, I left most of my yahoo groups to decrease the amount of daily email. I hope all of you understand my decision. I feel my family and I will benefit from this decision.

You blogger friends are a huge part of my support system and I can not stop all together. I will still pop by and read your blogs.........I sure do enjoy them.

Well until next time....

Be blessed,

Chasity

PS As far as my surgery, I still have not heard from the surgeon. I will keep you posted.

Hi sweet friend! You had a very productive time off! Missed you!
You are ramping up for school and we are all but done. Gals still have math.We have lots of activity planned. We got our Y membership renewed, have free bowling coupons, free movies for the hot days, free museum visits planned. Hopefully a trip to DC before the summer ends. We are so close and yet not done anything with the gals.
Lots of work in the garden going on. With all the spring rain it took a while to tame the weeds!
As far a weight and lifestyle stuff....hanging in there at the same range. This is good for me. Not yo yoing back up. Its been 13 months and a total of 43 lbs...I hope and pray I can keep this off for life!
Hope to hear from you soon! I have a sticky post that might interest you. HUGS

Chasity,
I wish you well with your cutting back on internet usage. I am hooked and could not at this time do that. I am glad I have older kids and they do a lot to take care of themselves.

I hope my blog is one you will read and comment on once in a while. I will miss the WLW. I was thinking of getting back to doing it. I need to anyway. My weight is only going up! Though I am not sure of that because I have not stepped on the scale since I stopped doing WLW.

We take a full summer break. I need it. Though we do start school and end school earlier than the public schools. We have been on "summer" break for 3 weeks already. Unfortunately it has not felt like it because we had a week of Spring cleaning followed by two weeks of sickness. Maybe the cleaning made us sick... we should avoid cleaning in the future... just kidding. We will start school the last week of July probably.

So,
enjoy you time with your family,
keep striving to loose the weight even if you don't do WLW,
see you round the bloggin world,
Debbie

Oh sweet friend !

I totally understand ! I am here when you want to visit. Could you please let me know when you do post so I can come and visit. I have been more of a reactive blogger when those come and visit me. Even that hasn't been that well either. Life is full and that is good. I haven't been listening to Cindy's talk a lattes b/c it cuts into my schooling. We all need to pick and choose what we can do. ((HUGS))

I pray we can continue to be friends. I would love to email when I can and maybe we can connect that way. Or if you want me to give you a call once in a blue moon to talk. I love taking compaired to writing, lol.

Blessings and ((HUGS)) my SSiC
In Him<><
