....or at least trying too. I have joined Weight Watchers and I am trying to ride my "new to me" bike everywhere. Why post this on my SPD blog? In order to be a better mommy to my kiddos, I need to take care of me first. I have also been doing a lot of reading about "margin". For example: ifiwriteallofthewordstogetherwithoutaspaceitisveryhardtoread!
Similar things happen when we have too much scheduled in our lives, at least that is true for me. I have been trying to release some of my commitments, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I am playing a more major role in our church's VBS. And it is the big kiddo's birthday in a week, which means a party at my house in 10 days. So mommy is on stress-overload....which makes me not such a great mommy. I have no patience, I am tired, and I have "no time" to play with the kids. Not a great combo for the SPD kiddo who is off of his normal routine, and coping with a week of VBS. Thankfully daddy is home tonight to take some of the fun (like the 2nd pair of poopy undies in 2 days from the nearly 6 year old) and put them to bed so I can blog, finish invites, and run to the store, ALONE!
So far I am down 10 pounds! :)
