Barbara had to work tonight :(, so Rob, Robert, and I went to McDonald's in hopes of seeing her for a second. She was working the back drive-thru window, so we bought Robert a shake, got back in the car and went through the drive thru just to shout "Happy Birthday" at her, drive through and tell her we love her and go home. :)
I'm continuing to walk. Tonight I noticed that we are slowly inching the distance up and the time. So this is pathetic to those of you who are fit & healthy, but I still want to share it. Hopefully you won't think less of me for being a fatso. :) In the six weeks since I started walking, I've doubled the amount of time and distance I was walking, and I've increased the number of days I walk too.
My :) List for today:
- I made time for Rob & me this weekend. Paid a big price for it perhaps, but I am getting MUCH better about putting family and even myself first.
- I continue to walk, drink more water, eat less.
- I like making fun memories with our kids and Rob. I LOVED going to see the kids at McDonald's tonight, especially hollering Happy Birthday to Barbara through the order screen. :) hehehehehehe
Oh, I LOVE it that Barbara would torture her brother for FIVE WHOLE DAYS. Hee hee. Jessie always loved it when her birthday rolled around because she was then within a year of me. ;o)
ReplyDeleteI don't think you are pitiful or pathetic or anything else. What I think is you are a woman who has decided to take charge of her health and fitness and is doing absolutely as much as she is able. That is a wonderful goal and you are meeting it.
Staying in shape once you are there is easy peasy, it's getting there that's the hard part, and you're doing it. :o) (I have to repeat those words to myself!)
Hugs!
