So today has been day 2 of being off from work, which after how busy work was two days ago I needed two days to recover! Also speaking of work, it was about Bubby's nap time when I went to lay down as well and I must have been tired too because next thing I remember is my phone ringing. I saw the phone number and thought "Should I answer it?" because it was a 464 number (which meant it was from St. Mary's). I wouldn't be able to go in because Tyler wasn't home yet from the firehouse, but I answered the phone anyway and it was my boss Jan. The funny thing is that all I remember from the conversation is that we had talked about some of my Paid Time Off time...I'm going to have to ask her tomorrow what exactly I agreed to :)
Ethan has been a bit under the weather again. His poop hasn't been normal; alot of runny poop and the kind that has given him diaper rash. He has about 5-7 red bumps (smaller than a penny in diameter) and had a small fever (but for less than half a day). I feel for the kid because he will look at me like "Mommy, help me! I don't feel good". The kid chews on his fingers like crazy, so I imagine he has more teeth coming in but he can't tell me what is ouchie to him :/
What I love though, is that when we are watching one of his "shows" he will climb up on the couch beside me and cuddle on me :)
And a slightly new update to and old goal (of wanting to lose weight) is that I have been doing the Shakeology (at least trying :/) and an exercise dvd called "Brazil Butt Lift". The first time I completed one of the sessions I was so sweaty. I know I can put a better effort towards getting fit and losing weight but gees it can be difficult especially after a hard day at work. I figure if I can at least do the shakes each day and at minimum do the work outs on days I'm off work (which is 4 days a week) I will make a HUGE dent in my current status of weight loss. What has everyone been doing to try to lose weight? Any tips or ideas...words of encouragement to keep me going? I know I have to want this for myself, but I also REALLY want this for my son and any future children. So far I have lost about 5 pounds which brings my weight down to 245 which is still more than what I weighed at some point when I was pregnant. Lots of weight to go...I'd like to be 180 eventually, but before I want to try again for another baby I'd like to be at 200 lbs.
