More drama
Current weight: 226 (+ .5)
I called home today to pass along a message to our nurse and there was no answer. No big deal, she’s probably changing Kyle’s diaper and couldn’t get to the phone. I called back 2 minutes later and still no answer. I got busy for a while and about 2 hours later called again; still no answer. I figured the phone had been disconnected (our phone was disconnected last Friday b/c of an error) but a tiny part of me wondered if something had happened. Luckily I live less than 2 minutes from school and ran home. As I suspected the phone had been disconnected. I left my cellphone w/our nurse in case she needed to call me or 911 and went back to school. Several phone calls later I convinced someone @ the phone company that we didn’t ask to have our phone disconnected 2 days before we moved out and that tomorrow was not soon enough to get it reconnected. I shudder to think what will go wrong tomorrow!
Wasn’t happy w/the scale this morning but at this point what does it matter? I’ll do the best I can and then November is going to be my month to kick some butt and shrink mine.
Got up early and did pilates for my workout. I might as well get up early and workout b/c I have woken up at least 4 times a night for the last week or so. I have always thought that I handled stress pretty well but this is getting the best of me.
Thanks for all of your tips for hotel eating. I think we’re going to have some extra nursing in the evening hours so I should have more time to hit the treadmill which will help.
Progress toward workout goal: 131/300
Oh my, I would have been crazy frantic if the phone wasn’t working. Moving is a terrible ordeal, I can’t believe I did it so often when my kids were young. You are dealing with so many things right now - when it is all over you’ll look back with laughter and disbelief but in the meantime kudos for making it all work!
Hang on, Brandie. It’ll happen. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just take a couple weeks of vacation and come back to a new house with all your stuff already moved in and unpacked?
I know what you mean about waking up over and over at night. It’s frustrating. I’m getting better but, for a while there, I was waking up with the DIL situation eating me up night after night after night. Still having that problem some but not as much.
Keep up the good fight!

Wow! You have been CRAZY busy! I hope all of the rest goes smoothly. Look at it this way. You sold your house and your new one will be done soon.
Most stores have roasted chicken all cooked up for you. That with a huge salad is a great meal. Leftovers makes a great low carb tortilla roll up for lunch with some fruit??? I hope that helps.

PS how is Kyle doing in all of this?
Ugh like you need more drama right now! Glad everything got worked out with the phone company though, and that everything was OK at home!
As long as you can make some “Brandy” time during all of this - whether it’s 20 minutes on the treadmill at the hotel or a quick walk or swim in the pool, I think you’ll be ok!
Um, I too nominated you for the coveted “Gorgeous Blogger Award”!
Hey Gorgeous, just checking on you but I’m betting things are pretty crazy right now. Hang in there! Things will be better soon!
