Well not much going on in these parts. Things are pretty boring actually. Just the way I like them. Boog is rotten as always and I find myself missing him a lot during the day. Maybe that’s a sign that the worst of the twos is over for now.

I did loose another 3.1 pounds for a total of 14.7 pounds gone since the end of February. That’s something. I still have a ways to go but I feel good knowing I’ve lost almost 15 pounds. My pants are falling off of me. Of course the next size down is still too snug so that kinda sucks. I’m stuck just cinching them up with a belt.

We’re planning a trip for Memorial Day week now. We get a free week of vacation from daycare and my husband is already off that week so we decided to do some traveling. We’ll be going to see my mom for part of the week and then maybe to see some friends near the beach. It will be nice to get away although I do not look forward to all the time in the car with a two year old.

I’ve been finding it harder and harder to get up at 6:00 am every single morning. It is amazing how much I miss my single telecommute day each week. I looked at my sick time for April and I had 21 hours of sick leave this month. And that was just for me, not Boog. It’s amazing what taking away 4 days of working in my pjs has done to my energy level. Hopefully our telecommuting will be reinstated this month. That’s what I hear anyway.

I did something I never thought I would do last week. Feeling all optimistic and sunny on the heels of another good sized weight loss I told one of my dearest friends that I might revise my previous stance on being a bridesmaid just for her wedding. She’s not quite engaged yet but they’re headed that way and their wedding would be far enough off that I could be at my goal easy.

It is true that I despise getting dressed up but I found myself a little sad at the idea that I wouldn’t be a part of her big day. I think that part of the reason I hate being in wedding so much is that I really don’t like how my body looks. I don’t like getting dressed up because I never really feel all that good about the way I look. I’m trying to change that and if I succeed then I’d be happy to be in my friend’s wedding if she wants me to be. Of course this in no way obligates her to ask me, I just wanted her to know that she could despite a previous promise not to ask me. (are you listening, friend? :P)

I know a certain little fella she’s said she wants in the wedding so even if I’m not in it there will be my cute little boy walking down the aisle and stealing the show. :)

I’m wondering if my previous stance said more about WHO it was for rather than being in the wedding itself. I’m not sure this is the venue to get into such things but it is telling that I seemed to change my mind when it’s someone else’s wedding.  That is another post for another day definitely.
