Re: Que's Journey
Hello everyone – I haven’t been in for a while because life’s been a little crazier than normal and I’m trying to get back into something that resembles a normal routine. Part of that routine was posting on EF.
Here’s what the first 90 days of 2006 have been like:
Daughter 1 totaled her car on the way home from work. (She’s ok)
Daughter 1 moved into her 1st apartment & left my house a wreck.
Daughter 1 got sick.
Daughter 2 wrecked her car. (She’s ok & so is the car)
Daughter 2 broke up with the “the baby’s daddy” and it wasn’t pretty as it got physical.
Daughter 2 got sick.
Grandbaby has been sick for about a month. (She and mommy live at home w/me & everytime the weather changes it starts all over again.)
Mom got sick. (that would be me)
Dog got sick.
Truck is on the fritz with a fuel problem. (My mode of transportation)
Husband died on 2/26/06. (We were separated but still officially married.)
Believe it or not the list does actually go on…….
I figure since all this crap has happened in the first 90 days of the year, I shouldn’t have anything else bad happen this year. I refuse to have a bad year.
My diet sucks and the only exercise I’m getting is going up and down the basement stairs to do laundry. I have absolutely no energy to do anything. I’m just physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted.
I’m going to try and take a couple of days off work and de-stress, have a good cry, eat a little chocolate and drink a beer or two. Then it’s off to the grocery store to stock the kitchen with the appropriate foods so I can get back on track with my diet and with life.
With my daughters extra stuff out of the basement I actually have room to use the weight bench again. Yeah!
I’m not looking for sympathy I just needed to vent. Thanks for e-listening and remember: What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. (I’m considering changing my name to Herculina)

Wow, Que! Life has thrown you a couple curve balls, huh?!?!?!
You will get thru it. Just don't give up on yourself. That will only make you feel worse! How's the relationship going?

I love you guys! 
The boyfriend has been very supportive during this time of madness, he's kind of backed off and just listened while I vented or cried or yelled or whatever it was that I needed to do at the time.
He sends cyber-hugs and/or phone hugs everyday. (He's in Oklahoma & I'm in Indiana - haven't seen him since November and not sure when I'll get to see him.

Re: Que's Journey keeps hitting bumps
Well I hope the duct tape can keep me on the diet wagon..... This is the "planned" menu for the next 2 weeks. I figure this will help get my system purged of all that crap that I've been eating the last month or so.
I'm out of most of my supplements so I'll have to wait till payday to get more.
Breakfast
1 pk low sugar maple and brown sugar oatmeal
24 oz coffee w/splenda & fat free creamer
Snack
12 celery sticks
Lunch
6 oz cottage cheese
12 oz tuna, water-packed, drained
5 bite-size pretzels
18 oz Fuze Slenderize cran-rasberry drink
Snack
10 celery sticks
Dinner
6 oz chicken breast
1 can green beans, drained
After dinner snack
16 oz chocolate whey shake
There's a new gym in town and it's offering a special rate of $12 a month for new members - so I let my kids know that I want a gym membership for my upcoming 40th birthday. I told them they could give it to me early since it was a special rate.
