I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day! I got to spend the day at the horse races with some friends, we had a great time! Neither of us won the diamond, but we did have fun!

I blew my calorie counting this weekend!! There was a party Friday night, for my boss' ten year anniversary, a family reunion Saturday afternoon (awesome time there! So good to see everyone!), and the races yesterday! But I am back on track for the week. It's time to get serious!!! I'm hoping to try some exercises this week and work them into the routine.

Today is my baby brother's birthday, Happy Birthday Dallas!!!!! I am so very proud of you!!! I love you!

Hope you all have a very blessed day!!!

Happy Tuesday!!

Well, Jared made it back Sunday night about 10. He had a great time, and he definetly looked older, LOL. He brought me a present too :)

I'm still doing my calorie counting!! Although, the weekend was quite difficult.

Anyway, not much up for talking today, just wanted to give an update!

Well, at 8:00 this morning my first born loaded a bus to go to San Antonio with the Big Blue Band. I am a nervous wreck. I'm sitting here at my office desk wiping tears!!! I know he will have a great time, just please pray for his safety during this trip. He will be returning on Sunday. Ahhhhh!!!

On a lighter note, Amy, Melissa and I went to bingo last night. We had a great time, Melissa cracked me up so much I almost missed a bingo! I'm sorry you didn't win, hunny!!! It was nice just hanging with the girls.

I have also started on a venture to change my health!! In a sense, that means diet .. but that's a bad 4 letter word! The doctor has put me on a 1500 calorie, low carb, low fat diet. Yay! (note: this is with sarcasm) I started Monday and have been doing well to stick to the calorie part .. carb and fat .. not so much. Mainly the carbs. My name is Dawn, and I am a carboholic. However!!! Three days on it and I have lost about 2.5 lbs!!! Woot! I'm up to 6 8oz cups of water a day .. hoping to make it to 8 today. Wish me luck! One of my other goals is to write in a journal once a day .. wonder where I can get one of those... Oh, look!!! A journal .. with pretty pages and music ... right here!!! (note: again with the sarcasm) Geeze I crack myself up.

Anyhoo, I will be putting forth great effort to post here on a daily basis. Now, I must get to work!! Have a great, wonderful, blessed day!!!!!

You Are Miss Piggy

A total princess and diva, you're totally in charge - even if people don't know it.
You want to be loved, adored, and worshiped. And you won't settle for anything less.
You're going to be a total star, and you won't let any of the "little people" get in your way.
Just remember, piggy, never eat more than you can lift!

Happy New Year!!

I love January!!! It's the beginning of a new year .. and new beginnings!!!

The boys are doing wonderful!! We received a letter from the high school about Advanced Placement classes for Jared. He's not really keen on that idea, but we will be going to the meeting. Mikey has an appointment for a preschool screening on the 11th. He has been doing really well with his speech lately. Jordan has been his mischievous self. *glares* He's a good kid, and doing great in school!

My health is the same, but my state of mind is better. I go back to the doctor on the 24th.

Thank you, Michael, for spucing up my page! I love you!!

Hey! Look it's an update!

The boys are doing great in school! They have have a few bumps in the grades so I am keeping on them! Mikey is doing wonderful and is having much improvement with the speech. Michael is being a wonderful father and husband, I Love You! Work is going well, stressful, but steady. I have been having some health issues lately with joint pain and fatigue. I went to my PCP and found out my B12 was low. The last 4 weeks I've gone for B12 shots once a week. It didn't help. So I went to see a rhuematologist, he gave me sleeping pills. I go back in 6 weeks, and I'm assuming he'll try something else. I keep hoping they will actually get some x-rays or mri or something to find the cause instead of throwing drugs at me. Oh, well. I have been very depressed of late but I'm taking my happy pills again, so I should be feeling better soon.

Jared's Christmas concert was last night and they did wonderful!! I'm so proud of him! *looks around* Shhh! He has a girlfriend! tee hee He will be preparing for his solo for UIL over the holidays.

Jordan, who also has a lil sweetheart (though he won't admit it), is doing great, too. His concert is tonight, he's excited.

Well, that's all I have for now. I will try to keep updating, hopefully all good stuff. LOL
