Marla - I hate having to deal with people over the phone like that. I'm glad you found someone helpful at least! And congrats on the kitchen!
Laura - It is a new dynamic when you have a spouse and kids. But I'm very lucky to have a husband that is very supportive of my fitness goals. I ow some ladies who do triathlons who deal with hubby's that resent time spent away from the family. I don't have to deal with that, and he will watch the kids so I can run and trains with me. So that helps tremendously!
Last night we went to zoolights and out to eat. It was a fun family night to have before all the regular routine kicks in and life gets too crazy! I'm going for a run either tonight or tomorrow night. It's my taper time now for my big race so smaller runs less frequently with a higher intensity. Once the race is done, I'm hoping to take some fun classes at the Y just to change things up for a month. I also want to bike the kids to school but it's been pouring rain the past week here. Once that clears up, I'll be having them bike with me to school.
Today I'm visiting my friend with the new baby, shopping at Costco and then cleaning our bathrooms and master bedroom. I already cleared out all the clutter so I just need to do some quick dusting and vacuuming. Shouldn't be too traumatic. We have our bible study tonight and I'm making chicken dumplings. Busy day, but tomorrow should be calmer!
Have a great day!0 -
I am going to costco too!
Did walk during the one hour of sun between rain yesterday. I have become a weather watcher here. So close to ocean when it rain it pours, not light stuff.
Tons of cleaning to do and putting kitchen back together.0 -
Holiday here today. Went to the coast for a walk. It was crowded, but nice. Eating took a turn for the worse. Eating will be easier when DH leaves and no more daily, endless supply of chips, cookies, chocolate bars, soda, wine, and McDonalds takeout coming here.0

I'm at my highest weight in over 2 years. Got some advice today that is good - once I've had a chance to organize my thoughts I'll say more.
I'm currently under the dryer at the hairdresser. Refreshing my color & getting a trim.0 -
It will be okay Laura. Don't get mad at yourself. Could be stress eating.
Try meditation thats what i want to do more of.0 -
Laura, I'm basically back to pregnancy weight...so you are not alone in this struggle. I eagerly await your thoughts and the advice you got. I'm just now about to put pen to paper some thoughts on plans for when things normalize here (school, DH, etc)0
