I haven’t been logging lately. There is just so much going on, I can’t seem to find the time. Our washing machine broke right before we left to go camping. The thing was 18 years old, so it was definitely time to move on. I ordered a brand new one when we got back and had to take a day off of work to receive it. When it arrived, I was so excited. We had a tough time finding one that would fit in our laundry space but it fit perfectly.
Then I put a load in and all it would do was buzz at me, I spent half the day fighting with it until realizing that it is broken. Now I have to take another day off of work. It gave me a headache and made me want to cry but I held myself together. I didn’t really want to work out after all that but I did. I thought about wearing a bathing suit on Memorial Day and made myself put in about an hour.
I am taking my youngest to Taylor Swift and my husband to Blink 182 this weekend. Two concerts and we need to spend some time at the in-laws for Mother’s Day, which is a little depressing for me this year. Mother’s Day is pretty much never anything I want to do (it’s always focused on the MIL) and my youngest is about to move out. I haven’t seen my oldest since I went down to visit her last summer. I guess it’s just brevity settling in my heart. Don’t get me wrong, I have plenty of things that I want to do that make me happy and beyond busy. I’m just really realizing this year that both of my girls are going to live pretty far away. I was looking through pictures of us camping, traveling, etc. last night. I’m so glad I have those memories to cherish.
I lost 2 of the 4 pounds I gained camping. That puts me right back at goal weight, so I’m happy with that. I have been struggling a bit with the desire just to go back to putting creamer and sugar in my coffee and pounding a man sandwich at lunch but I have been holding strong, so far. I think I may take my bikini out and hang it up where I can see it tonight, to have it serve as a friendly reminder not to fall off the wagon.
