What a month!!

I am back- not quite with the program yet but am getting myself psyched up to get started!

So this month has been flipping CRAZY!!! 

I think I let you all know I went to Juneau with my dd on 11/28. My dh was life flighted to Juneau on 12/4 with a nearly ruptured appendix. DD had her baby girl on 12/12.

I came home on 12/13 and went back to work 12/15. dd and baby arrived on the ferry on 12/16. I only worked that week as my cheduled Christmas break was 12/21-12-27... started back to work today.

Dd has been staying with us since her return- she and her bf are not getting along. He is NO HELP at all with the baby and would rather hang with his looser friends than spend time with the baby :(   Also, dd has been really sick. She was not getting any better and I took her to ER on Sat. They put her on "the big guns" antibiotics and she is a bit better this a.m. but very depleated :(   

Baby is doing VERY well! she is a little doll! 

So, all together... though I've been "on vacation" for 9 days... I've been wearing MANY hats during this time!

Anyhow- I am hoping things get back to normal SOON! I want to drop 20 pounds in the next 2 months (would love to drop more but??) We are leaving for Disney again on 3/10 and since I've gained almost all I lost last year- back... I need to get on the ball!

So IF I've not started WW again BEFORE, then I will start on New Years day!!!

Take care everyone... hope you all are doing GREAT!!

Whew!! You've be quite the busy lady! Your daughter is so blessed to have a mother like you to help out while she is ill. My mother was the same way when I got my spinal headache seeing as how I simply could not get out of bed she became my sons mom for a week. She was amazing, much like you've been  moms are such guardian angels! Hope she gets better and congrats on the new grandbaby

Geeze Mama, if this is your idea of a vacation, I'd hate to see how stressed you are on a normal day!  Under your cir****tances, I wouldn't even try to diet right now.  Just try not to overeat, or stress eat...I know, easy for me to say!  I'm sure you'll get your wagon in gear in time to be thinner for Disney.  Oh, and try to remember to Breathe!
