Satruday Recipe - Four Grain Bread

I don't know about you, but I love a good loaf of home baked bread. Nothing tastes better! But, it takes way too much time to do on a regular basis! Here's a great recipe for you to try when you have the time.

I hope you're enjoying your long weekend. My hubby is working so we don't have much planned. They're busy busy busy, which is good, in a way. The money is good, but the poor guy is getting burnt out. So bad. I think he's only had 3 full days off this month. He's working more than most guys out on the rigs. It's not very much fun for him, or me. I miss him lots while he's gone, but at least we get to spend the nights together now, not like when he was away. And, our vacation is coming up, so hopefully we have a chance to get some rest in. I have a lot planned, but plans can get changed.

I hope you all are having a fantastic day! I'm going to go and do what I love - crochet!

Fridays, Ugh

Another Friday is over. It seemed like today everyone was on edge. Which, really, when there are more women than men at work, is a bit crazy. One of my co-workers brought in his son, and that sure changed the mood. He's about 6 months old, and so so so cute! At least something nice and bright during the crazy work day.

I went and did Mom's circuit today, and have to say, she needs to start running it. I barely got my heart rate up, and I know she could have. Maybe I'll go with her again tomorrow, and hope that she runs it.

And, just so you know, things are ok. I know I had a couple of crazy FB statuses, but things are fine. I'm fine. John's fine. Things with John and I are fine. Just a super duper bad day. Hopefully tomorrow will be better!

Hope you all had a good week! More tomorrow morning. Looks like we have another storm rolling in, so I hope the power holds out for us!

Super Storm

Wow, we're getting pelted with a storm right now. Bad news. Like, I was soaked running from the truck to the house. Good thing mom and I went for a walk earlier. We only got rained on a bit. And the power is out in town. I think our power won't be on too much longer.

There are so many things I wish that I could say, but I think the time has passed. I wish that I had the chance to say the things that I had wanted to, but staying true to who I am is much more important. I know that this blog has changed, and I'm sorry if you read it before and I deleted the middle part. It's just not something that I want to live forever as something I have said.

Hope you all are enjoying yourselves out there...if you like storms, you should be here! Tons of lightening!

The End of A Friendship

You ever have one of those friends, that drove you nuts, but you loved them anyways? Then, suddenly, the friendship is over, and you're not sure whether to be happy or sad? That happened to me today.

I don't want to go into the details, because it was pretty bad, but, it's over with SS. For me, I think it's really good. Maybe not for John. I think he's pretty upset about losing her as a friend, but she said some things to me today that even he couldn't deal with. If she had wanted to stay friends with him she should have thought before she typed. Hurting a guy's wife is the worst thing to do if you want to stay friends. If her husband is great, like mine is, he won't question dropping her. So, it's over.

And now I can finally move on. I've been so stressed out about the friendship that I've been sick. I've had anxiety attacks, thankfully when no one has been around to see me as that mess. But it's over. Time to surround myself with people who I know love me and would never say things like SS said to me. Ever. Even if it was true. I know that the people who love me would never try to hurt me. They would talk to me, not insult me.

So, it's time to get back to losing weight. It's been so on the back burner the last week or so with John coming home, and having Uncle B coming up. As much as having Uncle B here was good, it was kind of shitty for me. Great for Mom, because she's finally motivated. It's totally happened now. Maybe now she can try to motivate me some. It's just been hard. I've been so stressed, and haven't cared. Today was no better. I totally pigged out after work, and barely noticed how much I ate. That's never a good thing. I guess I'm getting up at 5 and running tomorrow morning.

More tomorrow. I'm just in such a better head space right now, it's not even funny. It feels fantastic.

Thank you to all of you out there, KB & AT mostly, for not being the kind of friend that sets out to hurt someone. I love you both very much.

Another Quick One!

Yet another night that we didn't get home until after 9! I think, after I work out with Mom tomorrow, I'm coming straight home. I need to have some home time! Since it's late, this is it, but tomorrow I should be able to have time to get you all caught up! Have a good night!

Monday Madness

Sorry folks, no photo today. I'm much too tired for much of a blog. Uncle B worked the hell out of me yesterday and this morning, and I'm pretty sure that once I get home, I'm going to crash. Literally, there will be a crash landing in my bed. I didn't sleep well at all last night, because of how sore I am, and it's making me so cranky! I kinda want to just go home, crawl into bed, and wake up on the right side! Oh well. It is what it is. I'm on my lunch break, and I should eat something. Have a good day all!

Sunday Goals

Well, I weighed in at 188 pounds this morning! Yay! And, it's our 1st wedding anniversary today! I'm 12 pounds less than I was at the wedding! That's a pretty good feeling, I think!

Well, since my crazy Uncle B is on his way here, the only goal I have for the week is to make it through to Tuesday without dieing. I'm not sure he understands what I want out of him being here, but I'll go along with it if I have to.

John's making me golf today, we'll see how that goes. I feel kind of like shit today, so it might not be very good! I'm exhausted already, and maybe a bit stressed about Uncle B being here. I don't know. Will be an interesting couple of days.

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend!
