OK, still haven’t done anything this week to help progess of the scale on a downward trend. I am going to exercise this morning though, as soon as I get off the computer. I just got done paying some bills. DH check came, so money in, money right back out!!!!! I have about 1 hour until dd gets home. Then about 1 hour 45 minutes until 2ds get home. School has 1/2 day today and yesterday for parent teacher conferences. So, I’m just going to do it. I don’t care if the house is a mess and there are loads of laundry to do. I need to exercise for me! I’d rather the mess still be lying around than have me not here anymore cause I’m dead!

Talked to my dad yesterday, and my mom got some test results back and she has diabetes now. I know I’m at risk becuae glucose levels were just barely over at last physical. If i remember correctly doc said they like the number to be below 100 and mine was right at 100. So, if i don’t get on the ball, I’m going to be living with a chronic illness. My mom has been having all kinds of probs the past few years with arthritis and now this. Probably a lot has to do with lifestyle. She is not active and has always been overweight as long as I can remember. I just had a thought- my kids have only known me as overweight. The last time I was not overweight was not long after ds #1 was born and dd was only 4 so she probably doesn’t even remember me that way. I hate looking through photo albums cause I hate to see pics of myself. Luckily, I’m usually the one with the camera so I’m not in that many. However, I guess there will not be too many pics of me for my future ancestors to look at one day. It’s pretty sad to think of what someone might say or think about the way I look now when they are looking at pics in the future. That is many years away though, so I can make a change now. Maybe if I don’t mark any of the overweight pics, but make sure I do the future “after” skinny photos they won’t even know it’s me. They’ll think it’s some nameless ancestor that nobody can remeber!!

Here I go off to exercise…..
