Congratulations on the great loss in one week.
Take care of yourself. This next week is not going to be easy with all the changes in your life.

Continuing the weight loss journey 10 pound goals at a time. June 2011
Well, we got all moving in this weekend. Or at least 90%. It was a bit overwhelming. Pictures 10 lbs of **** in a 5 lb house..>good thing there is a big basement. The boys did pretty good. One point yesterday the little guy had a meltdown (no nap and sooo much going on). That got the teenager quite upset but by bedtime everyone was on a pretty even keel. We'll be bursting to the seams until we can get the addition on in July but we'll be alright.
As for taking care of myself....my mother will sit on me and make me if I don't LOL. The worst part I did is I had NO appetite at all. We got all of our stuff loaded Sat afternoon and Sunday am and then unloaded it all Sunday afternoon. Got about 60% of it put away (bed, clothes etc) ...the extraneous will be basement bound)...with all that we ate lunch about 2:30 and didn't even bother with supper. I know not the healthiest thing to do but we made sure we ate a decent lunch. Tonight will be a little easier cause we'll be more settled in.
For the little guys sake I was glad to see that STB-ex-DH came over to read him a good night story last night. For both their sakes I think it was needed. I think we'll be able to be good co-parents for him and be civil and cooperative with each other. There is no sense in fighting and arguing and making everyone involved miserable. That's how we got where we are.
Emotionally...it feels like a HUGE weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I know he says it isn't what he wants but I think the more he thinks about it he'll agree it is. He never really got his 20's to play and have fun and now that he's in his 30's he can do that.
We have a friend who is a real estate agent and she'll be listing the house. I will be so relieved to not have to pay that mortgage anymore once it sells. If you know anyone who wants to buy a house in Ellsworth 3 bdrm, 1 bath almost 3 acres on a dead end road...send them my way
Thanks for being so great and for all the encouraging words.
I can't wait to weigh in this week..I worked by ass off this weekend packing....literally LOL
