From Cocoon to butterfly

This week has been a great week. In laws took the kids out for the day on Thursday and that gave me time to finish up grading all those tests and then Friday, I got all the grades calculated and done! yeah! I don’t recognize my desk now with it all clearn and clean and no tons of paperwork covering it. Now, I just have the trouble of deciding to watch movies that I have been saving or to read the books I have been waiting to read heheh. That and thinking I really need to start to think and plan what to teach for Sept. I know I know, sept is a long way away but time goes fast when you are having fun and i don’t want to wait till the day before teaching to think about what to teach. Now I am full time, I have to really have my ducks in a row and do a good job. I already bought some notebooks to do teaching plans. I have to copy into the other becuase it must be turned in. I went to the bookstore with my son yesterday to get all the materials they will need (he and my daughter) for school, whew, cost me a good amount of money. What will happen when it is three of them in school! Yikes! But I love my ki8ds and this time iwll only be for when they are little and one day I will miss it.

As for weight wise, I am doing well and still in the longest loser. I don’t want to lose my crown you know heheh. I find that as I get lower in numbers on the scale, the scale is going slower although I am still followng my plan to the letter. But I am seeing the inches melting much quicker. I have now entered a new decade with 189 on Sat! Oh, just love seeing thos enumbers going down down down. And…. I bought my first shirt today. It is still tight on the bottom and aroudn the chest but I know that I will be getting it on in another 15 pounds or less. I can’t wait! Makes me feel good to see the c hanges in my body happening more and more. When I am over 200 (I got to almost 260) losing all of that, you really can’t see the changes so much but now that I am under 200, I can really see more and more changes happening to my body> Not only that but also with my mental attitude. I feel more “up” now , my self confidence is rising and I am not so hesitant about going out now. I still have a long way to go but I am just so thankful for being able to feel as good as I do now. My husband was playing with me and saying that he did not know where the other 30 kg were on my body that I still had to lose. I just shook my fat on my thighs and hips and told him, ther eis most of it here.  That is the one thing I don’t like about being a woman, where we put the fat. But I am going to get it off. My mom is suppose to be sending that dress to me soon and I can’t wait!
