Im sure many of you have heard the expression "stressed to the max" well i think i have finally hit that point tonight. For the last few my kids have had some major listening problems. I have yelled...cried...spanked...pleaded...spoke softly...nothing is working. I clean but for what? it gets destroyed faster than it takes me to clean. Jr has decided to just be lazy again and go potty in his underwear when he is watching a show. i take it away. if its not one thing its another. its so frustrating. And you would think certain people who step in and help or give me a break but nope nothing...they are too worried about their ownselves. it kills me how i dont get the same respect and im not sure what you call it in return. The same ones who i pretty much go to their every beck and call are too self absorbed. They do things on their terms. Yes I am fully aware of this being a vent but i do not care. at least not today. I need a vacation. A real one. But there is never enough money HA! I am always tired. I know that my body is under too much stress at least thats what my dr said when i was pregnant with zz which caused her to be under too much stress. Dont get me wrong i love my family and everyone in it. i love my kids very very very much. But sometimes i just need a break. AH!
Anyways...now that that is out of the way...I have lost a total of 5.4 pounds in 3 weeks. It may not seem like a lot but it is to me. It is a little over a 1/4 way to meet my first goal. I am really excited. Pray the inches will come off too...i am doing it the hard and old fashioned way...eating better...more eating what i want but being reasonable with it and walking every day. It is a long slow process but i guess it will be worth it in the end.
Anyways PLEASE pray for me because i need to get more organized...get 100% caught up on housework...and start going with a flexible schedule. I want to feel better and im tired of hurting and being exhausted all the time. I have been negative and stressed for a few weeks now and it is time to change. I just need prayer...thanks!

A Little Bit Of This...A Little Bit Of That...
Well it has been a crazy few weeks. lol. But hey that's life right?
Hubby finally got a report back from his tests...he does not have colon cancer...he does not have diverticulitus...he does not have a bacterial infection...all of his tests came back negative...we still dont know what was wrong with him but i do know this whatever was causing him to bleed is either hiding really well or could possibly have been a bleeding ulcer but whatever it we appreciate all of the prayers! Whatever the problem it went away which is always a good thing!
ZZ is about to turn 1 :0 WOW time sure does fly by so fast! She will be turning 1 on the 2nd of April and we are going to be celebrating her 1st birthday on the 1st of April. Speaking of ZZ she is doing so well from her burn. We go back on august 18th for a checkup and see how her skin nand the discoloration is doing. thank you for your continues prayers!
And the planning of a wedding renewal for Squish and Poppa Smurf continues. Of course with all weddings there are bumps in the road along the way to that very special day. I get frustrated with it and sometimes i feel like whats the point...i wish it would go a little smoother but o well...It it would help if it didnt get pushed to the side and actually REALLY got talked about and I had just a teensy bit of help...but like i said its part of the bumps in the road...but im trying to the best that i can. Thankfuul for my hubby who is working to pay for it and for all of our needs and most of our wants. I love him so much! Can't wait til we get to start planning our renewal in August! We will be renewing our vows June 9, 2012 which we planned before we even said I do and we could have more time to save money and plan :)
Well I have lost 3.6 pounds already! I know I know it doesn't seem like much but hey its a start. The only thing is this is I have don really bad on my walking. Yeah i need to get better at that...but with 3 babies under 4 it is a little on the difficult side. Sure people say they will "help" but when it comes down it they dont. Hubby works or he would. Finding time is hard when you already have a super busy life. But i am really proud of my 3.6 pounds already. It is a start. 3.6 out of 20 bu July 1st...now if i could lose the inches too.........
Laundry seems like its never ending LOL. Especially with little ones who are potty training and wet when they sleep. But refusing to put diapers on them even at bedtime because i dont want them to get the idea in their pretty little noggins that its ok to pee in their panties/underwear at all. so blankets add up LOL but I am actually nearly caught up again...at least for today LOL. And trying to keep a clean house with 3 little tornados is next to impossible LOL or like Mrs. Debbie said like shoveling snow in a blizzard. Very well put LOL. But you know what? wouldnt trade my life with anyone. I love it. I love my family and I love my life. I wish that the Unspoken Situation/Prayer request would get better which it still hasn't but i know it is all in God's timing. But i just absolutely love what God has given me. I may not have very much money but God has blessed me richly with love and family. What is better than that?
Well i am off to go clean and do my motherly and wifely duties...

Torturing Myself But For The Good...lol
Starting Monday (February 28th) i have been 30 minutes a day minimum and watching what I eat and i dont mean as I'm eating it LOL. I have been going to livingstrong.com and it is a free site. There i typed in how many pounds i wanted to lose a week and it gave me how many calories i should eat in order to do that. And all i have to do is log in what i ate and how much and it tells me my calories and it keeps the total count and everything. It tells me how many calories i have left to stay under my maximum limit. Its a lot less stress for me. So far so good...this is day 3...
Every tuesday, thursday, and saturday my hubby is taking me to the Old City Park to walk (it has uphills and downhills...which is supposed to help in toning my fat thighs LOL) and MOnday, Wednesday, and Friday I walk around the trampoline or up and down our street (Monday and Tuesday was the trampoline while the kids played and today was up and down our street because Stephen came and watched the kids while I walked).
It has been really hard on me...My legs are super sore so if anyone seems me limping around a little bit...yeah its because my legs are screaming "but why" to me. I went from doing nothing to pushing myself for 30 min a day minimum...yesterday it was a whole hour...but overall i am proud of myself so far...i just decided that i was tired of my excuses and waiting for the perfect time or for whenever i was ready...i am never ready to torture myself. So i decided to quit making excuses and decided to use my stress and emotional problems for my adrenaline in my walking...and it has been helping so far. Eventually I will be able to do this with no problem and be able to up the minutes...but for now definately sticking with the 30 minutes.
Please pray that i stick with this...and PS my goal is to lose 20 pounds by July 1st :) thats my first goal and deadline so to speak! :)
