teacher, well, I hope you pass both. I hope you get over the uneasies and have a good time in your practicum.

kay, cleaning makes me feel much better too. It is the mess I always make when doing the deep cleaning that I hate. so exhausted. I had faith home come and get a FEW things from the house, the MIL was over and the place is/was a wreck. I logged 21, 842 steps and am no where done.

KayNicole · 02-09-2012, 10:59 AM

teacher- I hope the first day went well!

Jen- I feel for ya, when my house is a mess I am a mess. lol

I didn't get as much as I wanted done last night but I am still on schedule so I am not worried about it. I ate too much again. I really need to stop making foods that I know I have portion control problems with. I am surprised I am having this much of an issue lately, I am sure it's tied to all the crap that is going on right now but I am really disappointed in my control over this last month. TOM is on the way soon too so I kind of feel blah about my weight loss right now. I've got to get a grip! I can do it, I have before but the emotion stuff is slowing me down more than I thought it would.

Have a great day everyone!

....

OK I spoke too soon... the ex just postponed on me AGAIN and is now imposing on my weekend which was supposed to be so relaxing and free of EX BS! I am so disappointed and pissed off I just want to cry. He doesn't even think twice about making plans with me and then changing them like it's nothing. I guess I don't know how to deal because I am mad that he is so inconsiderate... but he is leaving me... so why would I think he should be considerate? I should expect that he will be an A** and treat me like crap so why am I so mad and hurt? OK sorry for the vent. I am just not dealing well today.

teacher1 · 02-09-2012, 07:44 PM

kay- sorry.... I don't even pretend to know what you're going through. Hopefully, someday soon it will all be over.

jen- how are you feeling?

Today I did start my practicum at the daycare. I've never worked in a daycare setting only in schools. One word to describe it was boring. I mean I looked at the clock all day. I'm hoping more happens tomorrow. It wasn't bad but this will be a very long 15 days. Plus, my back is killing me from sitting on the floor for 2 hours during their rest time. Skipping working out tonight. I hope everyone is doing well.

KayNicole · 02-10-2012, 10:47 AM

Thanks, teacher. I used to work in a daycare with the toddlers. There was never a dull moment in that room! lol I had so much fun at that job. I originally went to school for education but switched to a science major 1/2 way through. My parents were teachers and there are more in the family so I just love that environment.

Sorry again for the drama post.

yesterday was hard but ended good. My parents sent me a card that made me cry instantly. I think I have gotten as many cards relating to my divorce as I did for my birthday. Anyway, my pity party is over. It's Friday, I have a friend coming over for a nice healthy dinner tonight, I am really looking forward to my weekend.

I hope you all are doing well!

teacher1 · 02-10-2012, 08:54 PM

Kay- glad to hear you're having so much fun with friends.

Day 2 done... I wish it was exciting but it's pretty dull. I used to a jammed packed days at school and this is so different. I'm hoping not to get sick. So many of the kiddos have runny noses. Glad the weekend is here. Off to watch TV.

teacher1 · 02-11-2012, 04:44 PM

Hi everyone!

Today I got some stuff done around the house. I got a mini workout in on the elip for 30 min. Tonight off to a Valentine's date with my husband. I also made some Valentine's day sugar cookies for my mom's class.

shalyn · 02-11-2012, 06:48 PM

Hello people! I've been away for quite some time. I'm happy to say that I did indeed make it to onderland, today actually. 199.8 this morning. Having almost no carbs/sugar is killing me but paying off. I gotta say, I don't feel or look like what I thought I would at 199. I don't know what I was thinking...that my gut would be gone maybe? Ha. Anyway, I'm back on the wagon and working hard. Glad to see some familiar faces hanging around here!

jendiet · 02-11-2012, 10:11 PM

kay, sorry the ex is continuing to cause you drama.

teacher, I can't imagine a boring daycare, maybe if all the kids were on meds, it just isn't happening in my mind though. I am glad that it is relatively peaceful though.

myturn, check in and let us know what is going on.

dogdays, what is up? I know it's not your weight!

Hey shalyn, AWESOME FRIEKING JOB making it to ONEDERLAND!!! I commend you on having no carbs/sugar. I go all day without any, and I'm about a mad hatter by dinner time, which is when I do have a few.

well, I am actually feeling a little down, I was moody today, but I slept alot, and that could be why.

Still working on son's bedroom. What a mess. What a chore. I bought the paint to redo his walls, but I'm so scared that I will mess it up, however, I watched a bunch of videos. I bought me a few exercise goodies, and the baby a few toys, so that is the end of my "play" money from taxes.

teacher1 · 02-12-2012, 03:07 PM

shalyn- hi & congrats!!!!

jen- wow, painting a bedroom sounds great. I know what you mean about having "play" money from taxes. I'm waiting for my husband to get them done so I can get a new Coach purse.

today- ir's freezing cold here. I'm having a very lazy day. Off to my parents later to visit. It's going to be a crazy busy week so just enjoying my lazy day.

jendiet · 02-13-2012, 01:40 AM

Very cold. Im still up and my feet are freezing. Can't believe February is half over, and now that I think on it, my baby's 1st birthday is coming up sooooooooooooooooooo fast. God time flies. I am just stunned.

Well, you can either stay reeling like a drunken sailor or you can grab your bearings and head off into the future. I think I will do the latter.

finished an assignment, and my brain is fritzed. I am still working very hard to catch up with all the housework, it is a never ending story. I wish I could get the others in this house to understand I don't want to be stuck doing the same chores every day, I want to move past the basics, and get some deep clade cleaning done! ah well.

still haven't got to use my new exercise equipment but I am getting excited. i have lost 4 inches off what I call my "pooch". This is where my c-section area is too. I also lost inches off my chest and abdomen, but gained in my thighs and arms. that must be muscle from carrying the baby around so much.

KayNicole · 02-13-2012, 04:13 PM

Aww I had a big long response all typed out and there was an error when I tried posting.

All was lost. I don't have time to go back and do it again at the moment but now but I will do individual responses next time.

I am doing well though. I have been productive and getting a lot done lately. I still haven't worked in consistent workouts but I am getting there. My exciting news is that I learned I have a half aunt nobody knew about. My Dad got a call telling him his Dad had a child a year before my oldest Aunt was born. I really don't know much else yet we haven't talked with her yet.
Have a great day everyone!!

teacher1 · 02-13-2012, 06:10 PM

kay- that's neat to hear about a new family member

jen- I know what you mean about the house. Every time I clean it just gets busy right away and it's only my husband, 2 dogs, and me.

It was more interesting today at the daycare. Spent the morning with pre-k and the afternoon with the infants. Preparing for a busy vday tomorrow with all the kiddos and then night class. I wish we could just skip to Wed.

jendiet · 02-14-2012, 12:29 AM

omg, teacher, I bet you are going to have lots of fun making valentines. yeah, I would say you are in for a busy day.

kay, that is interesting about the family member.

where are the others???

it is still very cold here. But it should be. it is winter. I had a busy day of spring type cleaning, I would love to get all of the junk out of here, and start making it look better with a few odds and ends. At least, we did get the curtains hung in the boy's room.

KayNicole · 02-14-2012, 11:17 AM

OK so lets try this again...

Shalyn- CONGRATS ON ONEDERLAND!!!

Teacher- I am glad to hear daycare is getting more interesting. I used to work at a daycare with the toddlers and there was never a dull moment in there! lol

Jen- I am afraid of paint too, you aren't alone! lol I hope the room is coming together for you.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

teacher1 · 02-14-2012, 10:35 PM

Happy Valentine's Day!

Everyone must be so busy lately. I always find Feb. a busy month. I found out I passed my early childhood test that I took in Jan. I scored 196 out of 200. Very excited to be done with that stress

Busy day at the daycare and night class so off to watch TV.
