Still eating like I am on vacation

Well I am still off work this week and it sure shows in my eating and drinking patterns.  I think part of it has to do with the fact that the scale didn't give me too bad of a number when I got back from my away vacation.  So why not gamble this week too and eat willy nilly and see what happens.  Well I will have to face that tomorrow morning.  I have not been weighing myself daily or multiple times a day as I have this heavy boot on my broken left foot.  My ladies and I need to come up with a good challenge this week that will keep me motivated and kick my butt.

It will be good to get back to work.  It will help my having a more structured schedule.  I do need to figure out what to do in unstructured environments as I hope to take vacation again someday.

Today has been a pretty good day. I spent the morning outside playing with the boys.  When the little one napped, I read a book....I haven't done that in a really long time.  It has been a good day and I hope I have another one tomorrow.  Although, tomorrow I want that to involve drinking the water I need to be doing daily and eating the fruits and veggies.

My sister had a baby girl on Thursday.  Her name is Madison Audrey.  I am so happy for her and so excited I have a girl to buy for.  Part of me was jealous (I seem to have a green monster problem) as although I don't want any more kids, I will always wonder what it would be like to have a daughter.  I am sure it is a different dynamic than the mother/son one.  I really hope that I do the right things while my kids are small that will make them want to be around me when they are older.  I think I am, but it sometimes feels like I am being selfish as I need and want time for myself.  The weeks are so busy and with school starting next week and everyone back at work, time will be slim and very valuable.  I am going to have to get more organized if I am going to survive it with my sanity and my hair.  And I am not organically built to be organized, I have to work on it.  I do love September, it has always felt like new years more than January did.  So my new years resolution(s) are to be more organized, cook at home, stick to my fab40 project and to be more organized!

I will be in contact with my ladies on Tuesday to figure out our challenge.  I am looking forward to the week.
