Hello folks!
Geneve my husband is like that he can start to play soccer again play a few days a week and loose any extra fat almost immediatly. However he is skinny to begin with..... (It ain't easy being a large woman married to a naturally slender man. I can actually put my fingers around his ankles they are so small! Thankfully my family is different, and my boys will get my families build -I hope!)
It is hot here too, making it hard to do anything. Sometimes I think if we had air conditioning it would be better. However each year I also tell myself it really is only a few days a year. If it cools down at night it is always easier, cause your house isn't as hot first thing in the morning.
I am not slender but when given hot weather I will wear shorts. I also find the right skirt will keep me cool. The trick is to stay modest and still not heat your entire body up.
Jen, I envy you seeing other people at work. I think it will be nice. As an added advantage I always found it easier to watch what I was eating when I ate lunch at a specific time. It just sort of built in a control there. Drake will enjoy being with other kids too. I am not saying it will be easy, but I think you will find some very nice advantages.
What classes are you going to take? I would love to take some classes, unfortunatly my husband isn't willing to pay for them. He thinks I have enough education and he hates that I am not earning any money right now.
Now as far as my little side business goes. I got my domain name and now I have to get a website up. My sister thinks by October, I was hoping sooner but hey the price is right. Meanwhile no word on the Farmer's Market and I am only selling by word of mouth. I do plan to get into some of the craft sales in the area at Holiday time.
Isabelle is now toddling around confidently. She is so cute! Her hair is curling in the humidity so she has blond curls. She is also starting to use some gestures, sounds, and (dare I say) words to communicate. It is so much fun watching her grow. She seems to be the adored one. She still has only 6 teeth though.
Ok enough blathering from me. I have been getting more water and have been trying to make better food choices.
BTW, Meowna, we just had a shower........no lightening but lots of rain. It seems to be cooling things off some.
Oh yea, and Welcome!

I was up early here, opening windows and doors trying to cool off the house as we are in for another heat wave. I also miss thunderstorms, we have had only 1 in over 7 yrs!! I keep hoping with this heat we will get a real banger but nope, sighhhh. I am down 6 lbs woohooo. Drinking tons of water, and swimming with the babe, even mall walking (they got air conditioning hee hee). I had to work when my older kids were small, I know how hard it was to leave them with a sitter. This is the first babe that I am actually gonna raise as a stay at home mom! I do miss having my income, not to mention adult conversation and wearing real clothes again.lol I throw on whatever is comfy, unless we have a Dr. appt or such. Well I hear my dog barking away, I should go attend to him. Have a great day Ladies and send some thundershowers MY way.
