Weigh-in this morning was 164. I did gain a little but there are certain reasons for those 2 lbs. I think as I'm PMS'y right now. Today was spent running around and getting mom's affairs in order. I wasn't able to start my diet (again!) because we were on the go all day. An excuse I know, but really it was lack of planning on my part and we were concentrating our efforts on much more important things. Mom's decided to keep one of her dogs and it's the one that I didn't think should be "kept" but her reasoning made sense to me. I told her that it would be ok so long as she is able to get some good training for her and that she won't be a danger to other dogs or people around her when the training is finished. I hope I'm making the right decision...

Hubby got home late from work, and we were organizing Mom's bills all evening and so we ended up going to Burger King for dinner. My plan was to let the boys run off some of their energy in the play area but that didn't end up happening. They were not very well behaved today, and I had gotten completely fed up with it by the time dinner was over, so we left early. I'm really considering doing an organic or Feingold diet. I just can't quite take the plunge though for some reason. Guess it seems too overwhelming right now. Not sure if my 4 yo's acting up is due to food or from the "stress" hanging over our household. I think we've been handling things pretty well lately but you know how kids can pick up things like that. Also, his older brother and sister have been gone for 2 weeks and I think he's just feeling "funky" lately, well I guess we all are to some extent. The two year-old is just being a two year-old! He's the one that waited the longest before going into that "terrible two" stage and I've been so thankful. He's been my "easiest" one so far, so I hope this phase passes really quickly! I miss my "sweet" little boy! He's still sweet, but you know what I mean...

Today was our 12 year anniversary like I said yesterday. My sweet hubby brought me home a bouquet of pink and red roses and a very nice card. He told me when we left BK that he needed to stop at the store on the way home and get something, I never caught on though, as it was a total surprise when he brought the flowers in. God gave me such a wonderful man!
