Approaching week & resentment.

Well its Sunday again. Another week is fast approaching. Where do the weekends go? Sundays are bittersweet-Cole has to sleep and that sucks but I do enjoy scrap booking so that is fun. I make sure to have all the chores done so I can just relax.

Speaking of chores I did the biggest one this morning. I cleaned out my fridge. This was no simple task as it should have been done ages ago but I figured it would be healthy to purge all the outdated crap-not to mention the room it would free up.

I should have taken pics cause we had stuff in there we would never in a million years eat-leftover McChicken sauce, etc, so gross-I cannot remember the last time I even ate MacDonald's probably over a year ago.

The fridge cleaning was awesome because it allowed me the room I needed for all the prep I'm doing for the healthy diet I'm doing this week. I got tons of fruits & veggies and even bagged up my own 100 calorie packs for it. I didn't go to my weigh in this week, partly due to my being sick the whole week, and partly cause I was nervous. I will be there this Thursday though-no doubts.

This week my almost mother in law started exercising in preparation for a trip down south. They went on one in March of last year too. To be quite honest I feel a twinge of resentment. Nothing about the trip but about the way they go about dieting.

They only need to lose a few pounds anyways but for a month or two they will absolutely talk about nothing other than this and its the foremost of every conversation. As a person who deals with weight, dieting, society, etc on a daily, monthly, yearly basis for over half my life I really hate this. It'll be you should try this or what should I do about this and my head almost wants to explode.

People who don't have serious weight issues just don't get it. I don't even know the way I'd like people to act around me but it really does rub me the wrong way how they obsess over it and the day they get back it won't be mentioned again.

I will leave you all now as I have to scrapbook-for my mental health if nothing more.

Midweek chatter.

This week is going pretty fast. I'm waiting to get weighed in tomorrow in the hopes that there is a different leader on Thursdays. If its the same one my friend Kelly said she would go with me and we can laugh our way through it-haha.

Kelly and her husband are the couple coming for supper on Friday. Kelly has MS and is in a scooter, everyday I think of her and so appreciate the things I take for granted. She was telling me of a time when she needed a nap before going out and she couldn't get herself from her scooter to the bed so she just had to try and nap in her scooter. It really puts the day to day trials in my life into prospective. Anyways we are going to play Wii and I just love hanging out with the two of them.

Yesterday I posted about my love of scrapbooking and Katie J asked for some pics. Its really hard to get a great pic that captures them well but here are a few:

Here's the Meatballs: Tomorrow I'll be back with my weigh in results and I'll let you know how the supper turns out.

Scrapbooking and more~

I miss the weekend. I so love the weekend. I woke up today with a headache so today sucks so far, haha. Not a great note to start on but I'm sure it won't last long.

I'm getting so much more accomplished now that I'm working days, making appointments, organizing, so much easier when its daytime. I can't wait til Cole gets on days too-we'll be a dynamic duo then-haha.

I've been having a really nice time getting in my scrapbooking lately-Its a hobby I love so much and now that its all organized its so much more easier to do a page and clean up the rest. I think its so relaxing and when I'm doing it I don't even think about food.

We got our Wii but now we are waiting for a Wii Fit to come in. We have a gift card to Futureshop so we are waiting for them to get one. I can't wait though cause a woman at work has one and just loves hers. I know its something I would use a lot.

We recently became friends with a couple and yesterday I invited them to supper on Friday. Maybe we'll all play Wii or a board game afterwards. My friend told me that on the Wii Fit you can hide your weight from others so that won't be so bad-haha-not looking forward to hearing it groan though-haha.
