Nutrisystem Mid-Week Update

I'm doing it wrong. I have been doing it wrong all last week and this week, so if you're following this, please note: *I'M DOING IT F*ING WRONG*DO NOT FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE*

So, in my handy dandy notebook, app thing, it has these little entry spots for "Powefuels" and "SmartCarbs", and I legit thought these were like, optional add ins if you get hungry or something. THEY ARE NOT OPTIONAL.



So, I've been doing it wrong, and all I can do from here is fix it. I will have to start incorporating 3 Powerfuels, 1 Smartcarb, in addition to my NS meals, snack and 4 servings of Veg. I don't even know how I am going to do this yet. My argument of prepackaged food/meals being so easy to grab and go is no longer valid.

Now I have to shop for Powerfuels and SmartCarbs, package them up into individual servings and remember to grab them in the mornings, you know, when I have nothing else to do other than feed and get our three little lovies ready and to school.... And remember their lunches, and school projects and the like. le sigh.


PS- It is probably beneficial to read ALL the information on ALL the sheets in ALL the booklets when you begin a new program of any kind. My left-brained self is no good at this kind of thing.

I did it!

Remember last year when I went on and on about why I couldn't finish any of my books that I had started? When I had a plan to write so many words per day to finish my book, and how I had figured out what I was missing? Well, its done. I finished it. 192,327 words. I did it. And I'm not sharing it with you. at all. I worked on it for months making it about someone else, but the story, my story, was so painful and it left me raw and angry and dark; I simply couldn't pretend it was someone else's story. So, you know what I did? I wrote honestly. I used the real names and literal events. I wrote down every single thing, regardless of who did what to whom, regardless of whose fault things were and I got it all out. 192,327 words of it. It was the most cathartic experience of my life and it took me so much longer than I thought it would. Sometimes I would write for hours, and it left me so drained I'd have to leave it for weeks, re-healing wounds, putting it all...

TWENTYEIGHTEEN Y'ALL GUYS!

Y'all. How has another year already gone by? And seriously, has it really been almost five months since I blogged last? What the actual F?!? Where did 2017 go? I wasn't done kicking ass and taking names yet... honestly though, I'm not even a little sad its over. I got a whole new freaking year to kill it. Right? I'm pretty sure I have hit those years that my parents used to talk about 'time flying'. SLOW DOWN. Or, you know, speed the hell up, like, get me right to retirement, I'm moving to Honduras! jaykay, jaykay. I am loving all the kids, and soaking up all the memories. I know. It only happens once. all that. So many of my high school friends/acquaintances have either just had their last baby, or are about to. And I'll be honest, I'm super jealous. There have been tears. Many. And I don't even like to cry. But then, I start doing some simple math, and I'm like, I will not even be 45 yet when my youngest graduate high school... y'all ...

#allthethangs

Near the end of 2016, one night while Stephen and I were lying in bed, I told him, "2017 is going to be our year. I can feel it. I know it. We are going to have all tha thangs," and then last night, he reminded me of this and *GASP* told me I was right! This year has been wild, but this summer has been bountifully, overwhelmingly perfect. Obviously, you know we closed on our home, which was hitting the biggest goal we have had for the last (almost) four years. We also bought a new vehicle, which we desperately needed, but were holding out until after we closed on our home, you know, 'just in case'. There is something else  that we have been wishing/hoping/praying for since I've known Stephen, and it has finally come to fruition. She's here y'all, and not just for her required 42 days this summer. She's here. She is going to school here, I just dropped her off for her first day this morning. She is making friends, learning to drive, and buildi...
