Hiatus Over

Well I am BACK!    This blog started because it was a requirement of a college course.  However, I think I am going to use it for my own purposes now.

So after the death of Nana in July 2010... Life went spiraling down!  My DH quit his job Aug 2010, didn't find employment till Dec 2010.  I found out I was pregnant Sept 2010, had a Miscarriage Nov 2010.  My body broke out in shingles Dec 2010... and my son got chickenpox 2 weeks before Christmas.  Hell, I can't believe I am still Sane!!!  I also had a BFP Feb 14th.... but had a loss again a few weeks later and the 10th miscarriage happened March 27th.

I did get on some meds for anxiety and took those for 2 weeks.  I am defiently feeling like myself but I am dreading April 27th, which is the EDD for my loss in Nov 2010

Well I have to get back to work... I will post soon!

Life

Well life is moving forward but I have been in a slump,  I am not focused and it definitely shows. I have so many stressors in my life right now and my immune system is low because of it. I also got my first ulcer and after over a month of pain I finally got relief.... So what am I to do?  I am definitely one of those people who shuts down when I feel overwhelmed, I look around me and see a million things that need to be done and I do nothing instead of trying to tackle them.

*Sigh*
I guess it could be called procrastination, but I avoid all these tasks more from the feeling of being overwhelmed rather than just putting it off.

Well today is a new day. It is day 3 of week 4 (I put my couch to 5 K progress on hold the last 2 weeks) and I have new determination to tackle some stuff on my to do list. #1. Make a To Do List
:)

Life continues

Week 3 has been a battle,

Monday: 25 min interval with a new 3 min jog... UGH But I did it! (1.2 Mi)

Tuesday: 1 Hr 130bpm walk (3.5 Mi)

Had a death in the family Wednesday, at the hospital and families house all day.

Thursday to tired from being up till 2am, went to bed at 5PM.

Friday: Today.... Feeling sick and in the potty all day, son had  a fever this morning, didn't go to work. Debating about going to the Gym... I still have 2 hours to decide

Next Week:

Monday funeral

Tuesday: I wonder if I should repeat week 3 in my "couch to 5K program" since technically I only did the intervl once this week. I am not sure if I can do Week 4's intervals (4 and 5 min jogging). Maybe I will try week 4's interval and then dial down if it is to difficult to keep up with.

Man I am tired today, I should really stay away from caffeine. I had one 20oz diet coke and couldnt fall sleep till 3:ooam.  I become more like my mother every year!

So I am in week 2 of my 10 weeks "couch to 5K" I am using a Podcast from itunes entitled "Podrunner-Intervals".I am enjoying it so far, although I do love the Podcast "Motion Traxx" because they have a larger variety.  I did not go to the gym today, I took a nap on the couch from 5:00-7:00 instead. I plan on doing some weight intervals after class though :)

I have always been a 'fit' person but getting this "baby weight" off  has been a struggle (I use quotations because it has been 8 years,).  My diagnosis of PCOS has helped because the medications to help regulate the hormones has made a difference already. (10lbs in 6 weeks!), and I am now motivated to work out more enthusiastically again with the hope that I will see some movement in the scale

Christmas Gifts

I know it is a bit early to think about Christmas, well it's actually only 5 months way now. I always like t be crafty and create gifts for my family but I always seem to start late and don't get them finished in time :)  So This year I started in Feb and I have 4 of the 20 complete.  ... Probably not everyone will get a handmade gift this year either but I am going to keep at it.  I will post pics if my phone will co-operate!

Long Day...

It was  crazy day today at work, We opened with half the classes flooded from a broken pipe, thus making us combine classes,  17 two year-old's in a room designed for 12 was 'fun'! I think the over 100* heat index just added to my crankiness...  

Hello Out There *echo*echo*echo*

Hello All,
I am a working mother and a Housewife.  I must admit that my 'Boys' are spoiled rotten and their only chores are trash for the son and mowing for the hubby.  I like to think that I am coordinated and not to clumsy and while I am learning how to juggle my son's music schedule, sports schedule, my husbands rotating days off and my life as a Full-time housewife, Full-time professional, and Full-time Student.... Whew.  Yes I can because I am a Super Mom! :D
