I’m taking a page out of Das Becca’s book and simply titling this “Day One.” I want/need to write daily so I’m going to try writing each evening before I sleep.
Sidenote: Excuse me while I fangirl out a bit, but I just adore Becca’s blog. She’s certainly in my Top Ten Blogs I Love and Creep and Stalk and Swoon Over.
Most of my time lately has been spent gaming, counting points, and having very small outside-time.
I started playing World of Warcraft again. The old guild fell apart after I left gaming in January (not because I left – even though I can pretend) and so now I’m with a bunch of new people and reverting to my not-talking-very-much-and-just-diving-into-the-game. The best thing about playing is how it completely relaxes me to get lost in another world. The fussy thing is that I miss playing with Sara.
I joined Weight Watchers Online on July 31 to get a much-needed kick in the butt. I’ve been talking with my doctor for the past few months and although she was happy with my weight loss results at the beginning of the year, she gave me a new goal to reach by August 27th and I spent most of June and July packing and cramming food in my mouth because OMG STRESS MOVING MOVING FOOD WHERE IS MY CHOCOLATE OH MY PANTS ARE TIGHT. I lost 5.5 lbs the first week and although I shouldn’t complain, I was really “meh” about it. So what, 5 lbs? I don’t think I’ll feel really encouraged until I lose a thousand. Or something.
And I’m pondering whether to purchase Nike+ and beginning Couch to 5K.
Drew’s rash is still frustrating us horribly. It seems like it flares up every four days or so and then eases off. And because of that, I’m trying to be extra careful about his being in the heat. I know he’s getting a bit stir crazy though and on our last trip to the park he was so excited to be OUTSIDE that he hopped around and shrieked “I AM SO HAPPY!! I AM SO HAPPY!! I AM SO HAPPY!!”
And then became an angry pirate shouting at imaginary enemies.
But now I need to convince Daniel and Drew to stop playing computer games so I can tuck Drew in bed and then we can get our Tudors fix.
