This time it’s for real

For those who have asked- sorry I forgot to say- everything was fine with my husband’s work, he called in sick, saw his neurologist on Thursday, called in sick Friday again- gave his work the note on Monday and they didn’t say a word. They believed him. Oh and to be honest no one knows about my blog except you guys There’s no way I’d let hubby’s friends (or hubby) see my blog and know my weight. I am just not ready for anyone besides you guys to know that I weigh over 200 lbs. I just think they won’t understand like you guys do.

*RANT ALERT!*

Yesterday was hectic, I’m having issues with my mother NOT backing off and letting me take care of things! AS USUAL! She is trying to refinance her mortgage so she can take my father’s name off her house and I submitted all the paperwork a month ago- haven’t heard a word, then two days ago I get an email asking for more information. Cool no problem- I forward my mom the email because it had some questions for her that I didn’t know. Well she CALLS this person, starts complaining that things are going too slow and the guy who processed the loan isn’t doing his job and so on. The woman she called is merely the underwriter- so the underwriter calls the bank pissed- puts the loan on hold and I guess chews out the poor guy who didn’t know what hit him. He calls me clearly upset so I’m sitting there apologizing to him saying I had no idea my mother called this woman and did that. I told him he was doing fine then it was all about damage control. First I faxed the information required (this is when I got home- no rest for me apparently), then wrote a letter answering the questions asked, then sent out an email apologizing about my mother and trying to rectify the situation. THEN I wrote my mom an email telling her STOP calling people- what she did was unnecessary and I had told her the whole refinance process was going to take a few months like the bank previously told us. I told her basically the bank said one more call and they would deny her loan and I also said I would refuse to do the refinance and waste anymore of my time so she’d have to do it when she got back on her vacation…

Of course being the drama queen my mom is she was like I did nothing wrong blah blah- and I was like YES you did. The poor guy at the bank blamed himself for not deleting the contact information of the underwriter- I told him no- my mom is a control freak- most NORMAL people wouldn’t do what she did…

If you are thinking I’m being harsh on my mom let me explain my mom is always in a hurry to do things, she acts like she’s the ONLY client at businesses and so on. When something needs to be done she wanted it done yesterday- and no matter how quickly it’s done it’s NEVER done in a timely manner for her- it drives me insane honestly. I understand she’s over there- she has no idea what’s going on here- she doesn’t like not being in control- BUT the way she’s acting obviously isn’t making things easier on me when it comes to taking care of her finances.

Anyways- eating is going very well which is amazing despite the amount of stress I’m dealing with lately. Which is funny cuz normally I’d be eating my weight in sweets and trying to drown it all out- but nope. Went home, took care of that stuff, hubby decided to make dinner (hamburger helper but I can’t look a gift horse in the mouth), then I had dinner, played with my pets, worked out an hour (yeah I had to work that stuff off lol) and then showered and watched some TV and then read till I fell asleep. Today the scale said 213 so no complaints here. I know TOM is on the way because I was CRAVING a PB and J sandwhich (I had a half sandwhich on wheat bread). Everytime I’m about to start it’s like BAM! I need a PB&J and a small glass of milk- I don’t know why- I don’t even care for peanut butter and ONLY eat it that one time a month. I also never drink milk either- I’ve never really liked it- and just once a month I want milk. Obviously I’m missing some Vitamin A, D, E or something that those foods provide.

Oh and you guys will laugh at me but remember a few weeks ago I bought some new size 16 jeans? Well I never tried them on- not even at the store, I was too NERVOUS to try them on. I was scared they wouldn’t fit. You know how old jeans are looser over time cuz they seem to conform to you? Well I tried them on today and they slipped right on! No tugging or sucking it in or anything! And they look GOOD on me WOO HOO! *dances*

Have a great day ladies- sorry for the long post.
