Thanks Jen, now if I could really refocus on journaling and getting back on a program of some type!
This has been the summer of NOT fun and lots of stress, and since I tend to be a stress eater well things are going less than well!
The summer started with me teaching 5 classes (not to bad they were all online and I had lots of wonderful students)
Then we get a call from my IL's that my FIL needed to have his pacemaker replaced and it was an emergency well it got downgraded from emergency to needed to be done ASAP but not critical. Then as we are getting ready to leave town to be there with them when the surgery happened we get a call that my grandmother fell and broke her pelvis and was going to have surgery.
Well DH and I headed to his parents and I kept in close contact with my Mom in a different part of the state. We get back and things seem to be settling down some my FIL is doing ok and my Grandmother is doing as well as can be expected. DH and I then start looking at houses as we are ready to have a place of our own. Not a problem there well we hear rumors at work about downsizing and we talk to one of the bosses and find our that DH's funding is probably going away in December (although they hope it won't but for now it probably is) oh and at the time they didn't know about mine. Ok not good at all so DH and I both start looking while being thankful we have some time. I then found out that I was ok for now but it still scares me so I will keep looking. Then we get a call last week that my Grandmother is rapidly declining and it is just a matter of time and we are waiting for the call that we need to leave to go to a funeral.
I feel really bad that I am not down there right now but with the start of the semester and DH's interviews we just can't leave right now. (I'm feeling some guilt about this one I can't do anything there but I can't do anything here either)
So with all that said I have not been watching what I ate this summer as closely as I wanted to and topped off with serious asthma issues and a heat wave to beat heat waves the workouts that I love have not been around. I am ready to be back on program. I have done a good job maintaining within 4 pounds of where I was and I bounce up and down in those 4 pounds but I am ready to start losing again. I am going to start with the September Exercise Challenge and I am going to start getting my minutes back in YEAH!!!!!!!
