Check In

There are some really positive things going in my life right now:

Phil is potty trained.  And boy was that HARD!  It was months of false starts and me thinking he was ready when he really wasn't.  And then in the past month: BOOM.  Potty trained AND (mostly) night trained.  It is awesome.  I am sure that as soon as I hit publish, he'll regress.  But I doubt it, because it has been almost a month and he's pretty good.

I've lost 10 lbs since moving out here.  If I had realized what my daily Coke and weekly fast food habit has doing to my waist line, I would have stopped long ago.  And would never have gained the weight.  I'm hoping that my continued success at limiting sugar will last for a long time and with some excerise I'll be a weight I haven't seen since college.  I doubt I'll ever be high school skinny again, but I'll accept junior year skinny.  And healthier too, because I'll be able to run a 5k without stopping.

Generally, I feel really good about my life.  Except sometimes, when it gets overwhelming.

Since this a blog:  I leave the bad things to:

I am lonely.  I miss my family and friends, I miss dropping the kids off at school, and I miss that my kids used to get a lot more interaction with other people.
