Whining....

                                                                                                       Saturday, September 24, 2011


    I confess today I am feeling a little daunted by the task I have laid out and I am feeling a little sorry for myself, or perhaps angry,  that I have to take this walk.  I have been on this journey for a long time.  I have tried to come to terms with death and to stop being so mad at God.  It  has not been easy, no vacation here.  And after all that, I'm still not done!
     It seems so unfair (I say as a stomp my foot) that I have to work so hard now to lose this weight and to reclaim myself.  Have I not worked hard enough the last 6 years getting to this place?  I know, I'm whining, and whining is annoying.  I know life is unfair, but I'm complaining about it.  It's not fair that I lost so many in such a short time span, it's not fair it has taken 6 years to realize I have been in the dark abyss and it's not fair that the journey out of it will be, in many ways, more difficult then the journey into it.  I am impatient, I want it to just be over.  I want my body and my life back and I want them NOW!!

Impending Graduation

I have not looked or even thought about this so called blog since the last entry. Sadly, in all that time, nothing has changed.  Pretty pathetic, I know. Nicholas graduates a week from Monday and I have not lost a single pound.  I may have gained a couple more though. What is wrong with me!?! Dana remains unemployed after almost 4 years. We have exhausted our savings and all of our retirement funds.  We have sold all my jewelry and are in the process of selling books and movies. We have struggled to pay our rent for the last 7-8 months.  We have some great friends who have helped when they can. God Bless them. Surely, between death, debilitating depression, job loss, huge money worries and all the other bad luck we have had, we must be due very soon for a run of good luck and happy times.  Pray for that for us please. Graduation - my one and only is graduating high school on June 17th. He will turn 18 on June 25th. It has been amazing watching him grow-up fr...

Already half way through April..

  Time flies.  I just read what I wrote in January.  I have not done anything since I wrote that, not a thing.  I have not eaten any better, I have not moved more, nothing.  If anything, I think I have withdrawn again.  My eating habits still suck.  I am tired all the time.  My doctor is still trying to find the correct dosage for my thyroid medication.  My house is a pig sty and my kitchen is so bad I don't even want to cook in there.    I have been continuing to look at colleges for Nicky.  I have to stick to this list of schools with policy debate teams.  Over break Nicky and his dad did a campus visit at U of Chicago.  However, after finding out they have no policy debate team, they are off the list.  The boys also did a campus visit to Northwestern.  They have an outstanding policy debate program, and he seemed to really like it there. His parents like it also, and love how close to home it is!  ...
