Update: Good Morning. Knock down drag out with DH...
I wish I could afford a cleaning lady. I hate housework and I never was good at getting my kids to do chores. My youngest daughter is the laziest teen in the world (which is saying a lot) and I am always picking up after her. I hate fighting so unfortunately I got into the bad habit of just doing it myself rather then fight about it. She just drops clothes where she takes them off and leaves wrappers and dishes where ever she wants. I did start buying paper plates at the dollor store so that helps a bit but between 2 teens and 4 dogs my house could use some help. I have yearly housing inspections and it is coming up so I will save my money and get help for that.
As far as the sizes, I keep hearing about vanity sizing but for me it has gone the other direction. When I was in my 20s I wore a size 3 even when I weighed 135 lbs. After my first pregnancy I got back to 135 and the 3s wouldn't even go past my thighs. I had to get below 120 to get into 3s again.
Last time I weighed what I do now, about 119, I wore a size 3. That was about 8 years ago. Now I can wear 4s but not 3s if that makes sense. It seems like I am bigger then I was even though I weigh the same.
Also, according to my scale, my body fat is 26%. At 119lbs? Does that mean I need to lose more weight? My daughter, who is 19, weighs 132 lbs and her body fat is 17% and she doesn't exercise a lick. I guess that means that more of my muscle has turned to fat :(

This must have been the mornings for arguments. Me and my DH were in a heated discussion. I finally told him I was PMS'g and wasn't afraid to take drastic action. We're in a truce right now.
