Ah my twins............I miss them so much. It is funny to look at this picture because you can really see how much thinner than John, Josh has become. Josh has found out that running in college is not as easy as running in high school. Lots more miles and alot tougher work outs. But he LOVES it. The two of them always seem to be able to spend at least one day on the weekends together. I don't know of one single weekend since they have been gone that they have not seen each other for at least a little bit. But they hate each other. Um yeah right. I don't buy it, do you?
I am totally unable to sleep. I just got home from work a little bit ago. Everyone else is already in bed and I am up alone. I just poured myself a glass of wine (why yes it is sangria) and I am hoping that is going to relax me quickly so that I will be wanting to go to sleep soon. Mark will be up and gone before I get up that is for sure. I won't be seeing much of him for the next few weeks while I am on afternoons. That is sad. I guess we will have to make plans for the weekends. Well he better be making some plans for this weekend since Friday is my birthday and I will be working afternoons that day, so the weekend will be the days that we have to celebrate. I will be 45 this year and I am not liking that so much.
I also am not liking the way I eat either. As you all know I run. I train for and run marathons. You would think that I would be thin. But no not me. I have to eat eat eat. I like food. I like foods that are not good for me. Like fast food. I love fast food. All of it. I eat it way to much. I also love things like mashed potatos, pastas, anything with gravy on it. Yummy. But the weight I have managed to gain is not good. So I am going to make some changes. I am not going on a diet. I am just going to make some changes. I am also going to get on a scale. Did I just say that?? Yea I am going to get on a scale and I am going to hold myself accountable. Or maybe you all should hold me accountable since I am not so good at it myself. I need to set some goals for myself and stick to them so that I can lose this extra weight. The dr. is not going to be happy with me in Feb. if I go back in there for my yearly physical weighing more than I did when I went in this past Feb. She had already told me at that appt. that I needed to lose. So I have just a few months to lose some weight. So how are you all going to hold me accountable???
We had a storm here last night that was amazing. I have never in my life heard thunder like the thunder I heard last night. It woke me up. I also realized at that point that we had no power so we had to set our cell phones so that Mark would get up for work. Set the alarms on the cell phone that is. While Mark was getting ready for work the power came back on so it wasn't out that long. But I did get up and out of bed at that time (5:00am) so I should be very tired now. I have finished my glass of sangria so I think I will go lay down and see if sleep comes. Have a good one!
