Saying Goodbye to this Blog

I want to thank those that took the time to read this "rant and ramble" blog of mine. I'll be slowly transferring the important contents here to our family blog and welcome you to visit me there...

Nothing big of a reason, just too busy with life to maintain several blogs...

Goodbye...

CoL:Day 26-32

Now I'm the one who's sick with another one of my children sick also and has a broken pinky. Yikes! So now, instead of eating well and healthy, I haven't had much appetite! Plus, last night, our neighbor, though gave us a warning, partied with loud music from 10PM to 3AM! Oooohhh, my migraine.... plus I had to bring down the fever of my now sick child. Man, why can't they just make these journeys easy? LOL

Though to my credit, we moved a lot! patio cleaning, gardening, sweeping, reorganizing, fridge cleanout and sorting and walking and swimming so at least I'm losing weight that way.

I'm also getting into baking, so I'm using my arms a lot in mixing and keeping things steady and reaching up. (Does that count? I hope so...) ;-)

Til next time... (I hope...)

CoL: Day 17-25

Still not getting enough time to focus on eating right but then again who can with 2 sick kids?


I'm hopeful though, very hopeful... (can you see my crossed fingers?)


Activity: Walked a lot in doing errands and getting my dinnerware fix. Sometimes, just looking helps so much in getting great ideas!

CoL: Day 6-17

Sorry about the lack of discipline it would seem but between my graduation, hubby's Apprentice Program graduation, School concerts, trips and last minute errands, eating healthy much less tracking has been difficult.

I should be back on track tomorrow...

Hopefully... It is Memorial Day and we're barbecuing!

Ok, ok... I'll be good!
