Not such a great weekend!

It was the 5th anniversary of the death of our 27 year old nephew.  We had a celebration day!  We miss him but we are very thankful for the time we had with him!  He had a brain tumor that he didn't survive.  His wife asked me to speak at the cemetery we all got together and let off some balloons to honor him and his life!  Later that night we had a party at his Mothers house.  There was lots of food and I ate way too much!  I'm pretty sure I gained like 4 lbs this weekend!  Will have to get that off really quick!  Leaving for Texas on Thurs AM.  Don't want to pack those 4 lbs with me also!  Not off to a great start tho!  I was bored last night and made choc chip cookies!  So I ate 2 this morning.  Going to have to get those out of here quick!
Well gotta get busy much to do to get ready for the trip!

I have been in hibernation!

I have been off work since Dec 13th.  I am taking care of my granddaughter for the winter.  Her and her mother are living with us right now since her and her boyfriend split up.  It is nice having them here but not always easy.  I don't really get online much so that's why I haven't blogged.  I haven't been trying to hard to lose weight lately but have managed to maintain the wight i lost before.  I am happy for the first time ever I got through Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years with out a gain!  I went to the Dr for a check up the 2 days before Thanksgiving and went back on Jan 24 I was up 2lbs that day but I'm gonna blame that on my heavy boots! HAHA!  On my scale it said I had lost a few lbs but oh well I was happy and so was my Dr.  I am on medication for my diabetes and had been missing my morning doses since I'm not working anymore I forget.  But my blood sugar levels are great!!!!  I hope when I go back to the Dr in March I can lower my dose?

We will be going to Texas on Thurs February 10th looking  forward to seeing my family again! YAY!  We are really crazy but we are driving!  We like to hit the open road.  We are taking our grandbaby also.  So I probably wont be posting much till I go back to work on March 1st
