Making a commitment

With all the craziness of the last 2 months I have fallen off the Healthy Lifestyle bandwagon. My eating has been crap, I haven't excersised and I am not even tracking my food.

So Monday I commit to get back on my Weight Watchers plan. Hell I am paying for it still. And to get in as much excersise as possible.

I am amazed that I have only gained 5 pounds during this time...but still, I need to get back on the bandwagon.

Wish me luck!

Mid January already?

Wow this month is flying by. Not only is it my busy season at work, there is allot going on in my life with my mom. I will try to summarize:

Work:

I am amazed on a daily basis how little people get done during the day and continue to look like they are super busy. I admittedly kill allot of time at work, but my co workers take the cake. They have failed to meet the minimum requirements for their job this month...yet, I have gotten mine done and some of theirs. How does that happen? No clue. Is it recognized by my boss, yeah...so I don't complain too much.

Mom

Mom continues to improve...slowly but surely. In fact this weekend she was able to carry on a full conversation...so I would say her head is coming back. She isn't plugged into anything...no oxygen, no iv's, nothing. The only thing holding her at the hospital vs the rehab center is the bedsore. Which they say is doing well, but will leave her in the hospital for at least another 2 weeks. She is starting to go stir crazy there now that her head is back. Please keep your well wishes coming. I truly believe that peoples positive thoughts help!

Other then that, no time for anything else. My birthday was last week and the best gift i got was to be able to have an actual conversation with my mother. That was such a wonderful thing. My husband got me a GPS system which was a very close second, but Mom was #1.

Tornados in January?

In Illinois yesterday we had tornados in January! Do things get any more out of whack then that?
