I don't know how you juggle it all, sweetie, but I think you are absolutely a miracle! First of all, I am so sorry for all the very sad medical news you have received. How is DH's grandmother doing? I hope she is better. Oh, so sad about Jennifer. The poor girl has so much to cope with and I'd bet her biggest worry is for the well-being of her children. Keeping her and your DH's grandmother and Mike in my prayers.
and loads of 
!
to all of you.
I so appreciate the love, encouragement, and support that you give me. Thank you very, very much! 
Please send prayers grandma's way. Don't let the cow at the gym get at you. There is a song by Sugarland called Mean Girls. It applies here. They never change. Don't let her get the upper hand by allowing her to upset her. OTOH, she may have been embarrassed by her own weight or the fact that she couldn't remember your name. You are doing a great job at trying to get healthy. You are a great mom and wife, and I would love to hang out with you.
I really appreciate your words of encouragement and support. 
Very excited!
My DH's grandma is back in the hospital with possible congestive heart failure. And of course, the family drama surrounding the estate is escalating as well. Don't people realize that she needs TLC and not bickering or arguing about who will get what and when?
Please send prayers for my DH's family and cousins too....
), and may have to pick him up. My niece is tenatively scheduled to sleepover. I was in a groove and actually got that exercise "high" that I have heard so much about. 
Of course, the only reason I worked out that long was to combat my horrible food choices from yesterday.
I may not be able to walk tomorrow, but I did burn 671 calories! July 4th will be here before we know it!
That is so awesome!! Oh, hon, I fear you may be sore tomorrow. If you can, you should sit in a cool bath for 20 minutes or so. It will help SOO much!
Thank you, sweetie! you are one of the people here who makes me a better person. That is a remarkable gift. I don't want you to discount what you bring to the lives of others.
There's been a lot of stuff going on and some family drama to boot. I'm really tired and discouraged at the moment.
I've been doing a lot of emotional eating and I feel horrible about it. I've been eating BBQ chips and potato salad like it's going out of style. I did have a couple of salads and some watermelon too so it's not a total loss. All we'll have left is the car rental ($158) and gas for the car ($300-$350) and we'll be all set. It would have been paid off sooner, but we're also paying off our December trip at the same time.
Hang in there girl, you can do it. You are strong so pick yourself up and don't let anything consume you.
Drama, isn't it fun? Especially family drama. I have some of my own, so really I need to follow my own advice. It is heart wrenching really, and has happened before, so really I shouldn't be so surprised. It stings just the same though. You and I can both get through this, one step at a time.
Good for you guys that you are making headway on your trips. That is always a good feeling.
Hang in there and enjoy your family tomorrow. Spending time with your family and seeing them happy is what life is all about, the important part anyway, and that is all that really matters in the end. Take care.
I'm not sure how much will get done today, but I plan on taking baby steps to get through the day.
I am actually reading The Voyage of the Dawn Treader now which I think is the next movie in the series. I can't wait for the next movie to come out! We also saw a preview for Wall E (Disney/Pixar's new movie out in June) and I'm still a little unclear about what the movie is actually about. We're looking forward to seeing that one too. The girls will be doing some work over the summer, but probably on an every other day basis and only for an hour at a time.
