I need to quit watching tv
Current weight: 222
My legs hurt. They felt pretty good this morning and for the most of the day, but by tonight I can definitely tell that I did a crapload of squats. I did pilates before school and 20 minutes of TJ after school, but now that I’m sitting down I’m stiffening up. It feels good, though, and reminds me that I’m back in the game.
I need to quit watching tv b/c I’m a bawling mess. I saw about 15 minutes of Oprah today and it was all about missing kids. We were considering allowing our 6 year-old to walk 2 blocks from school to grandma’s tomorrow but I took the show as fate telling me he’s not old enough yet. I wasn’t 100% comfortable w/it to begin with and after seeing that show I know I would be a nervous wreck.
Now I’m watching TBL and am all emotional, too. I do tend to cry easily but this feels different. I think the stress of finishing the house and the worry over H1N1 and Kyle is getting to me. We definitely have it in our community and my school and he started running a fever last night. Fortunately it went away and our school nurse said that he’d develop a cough w/i 12 hours (so far, so good and it has been 24 hours) but it’s not an exaggeration to say that I will be nervous every day until summer that he could get sick. Several neurologists have said that it could be seriously dangerous if a kid w/Canavan’s disease contracted H1N1. Let’s just say my hands are chapped from all of the hand washing

I’m sorry you are so stressed
Yeah for the field I work in I would NEVER let my 6 year old walk alone that far. If you have a bad feeling always go with your gut girl!
Thinking of you today, Brandi, and praying for Kyle that he survives the winter without any nasty illnesses.
I don’t think I’d feel good with one of my grandkids walking two blocks. Sad, but true. Things are so scary. I’m glad you reconsidered.
Yeah, the stress is a killer. I wish we could take some kind of pill to make it all go away.
Hugs!
You poor thing, everyone is worried about H1N1 but few of us have the same fears about it that you do.
Have you seen the Purell moisturizing gel? It’s the same antibacterial but there is some kind of lotion mixed in — it’s much easier on your hands. Bath & body works sells some antibacterial lotions too (but I never like the scents of them).
