Wow, it's been awhile since I've posted. I've checked in several times, but I guess I didn't have time, or didn't really have anything to say.
I am going to be done working at Curves tomorrow night. I'm glad to be done, but I feel kind of bad that I took the job in the first place. Oh well, -- I guess you never know until you try.
My son who's been having a hard time accepting our family's relocation, is doing much better. I know he still really misses his old friends and school, but is working on accepting that he lives here now. He's trying to focus on the things he likes here, which is a lot of things. I think that was his problem. He got involved, made friends, and fit in right away, and he still was terribly homesick. I think he thought if he did everything right, he wouldn't feel sad about leaving his old home. But that's something we all deal with. Well anyway --- growing pains I guess. Hopefully he will learn from all this and be able to roll with the punches in the future.
My oldest, the college flunk out first semester, has managed to get straight A's this last semester. There's never been any doubt in my mind that this kid can do whatever he wants, but if he doesn't get up and show up where and when he's supposed to, he's not going to get anywhere. He says he's learned his lesson. Next fall, he will be living in the dorms again. He has to learn to say 'no' to partying when he has early classes and studying to do. Otherwise, he completely sleeps through his alarm. But he has to do this on his own. I can't be his alarm clock forever!
I am disciplined one minute and completely indulgent the next where my diet is concerned. I've gained some weight, I think because I haven't been working out at the Y as much as I used to. The Curves workout is OK, but not for me. The few times a week I've made it to the Y, I felt like a got a much better workout. And I love having my Ipod! The music they play at the Curves is fine for what it is, but it does nothing for me. Music is so motivating for me.
I will try and not let so much time go by before posting again. I'm hanging in there, as usual, and am trying to get a routine down. I feel like I'm all over the place--- Summer is coming ( still cold here though brrr) and I'll need to develop a new routine for those months.
