Saturday, August 27th, 2011

Well, I am soooo.......close to that 199 mark, in fact yesterday I got up and weighed and the scale said "199.8", so I stepped off and moved the scale and stepped back up, and "199.8", so then I reached for my camera to take a picture and stepped up again and it said "200.4"....LOL!!! So I am not going to say it yet....but it's coming baby, it's coming!!! LOL!!!

I will be leaving Monday morning early to go see Michael in Connecticut, so I will have to go a whole week without weighing or posting. Hopefully by the time I get back I will be able to post that I have fallen into "Onederland"! Still praying for the storm to pass quickly and not do much damage up there so we will be able to go have a good time, and get to take our day trip into New York City. More than all that though, I am just looking so forward to seeing my sweet son! I miss him so much, and am looking forward to getting to celebrate his 27th birthday with him before I leave to come home! His birthday is September 5th, Labor Day this year, so we are going to celebrate it next Saturday night before I leave to come home on Sunday. Keith and I went out this evening to buy a card for him, and Keith said "This is his first birthday we haven't been able to spend with him", I asked him if he was sad about that and he said "kind of, yea". You know with all the mistakes we've made parenting and all of the things we've been through with our boys, seeing how ALL of us have dealt with Michael's moving away has been so wonderful for me to see that while Satan has tried his best to destroy our family in the past few years, God is still in control, and we all still love each other so much!!! Now that's something to be thankful for!!! Satan has not been able to destroy our love for each other, that's something that Keith and I have done right; and we will continue clinging to the Lord's promise that he will take care of our sons. I believe that our family is on the verge of receiving some wonderful blessings and I am so excited and can't wait to see what it is that God has in store for us! We are truly blessed!

I am curious to see how I handle being on vacation this week with eating. I told Keith I will have to work extra hard to not eat things that might make me sick, I mean heck, I'm going to have a good time and I don't have time to spend any of it sick and miserable! Packing along protein bars and pretzel filled peanut butter to help make sure I get the protein in. Hope you all have a wonderful week, and I'm looking forward to making my next post about "ONEDERLAND"!!!! Woo Hoo!!!
