I’d like to thank the petite blonde for her smile…wit and giving me life.

It’s that time of year again when we thank our mothers for rearing us, putting up with your misgivings and our lack of social graces. I am being more sarcastic than I am cynical. I wish that on Mother’s Day I could show my mom her potential. Let her revel in a life that isn’t so stressful, see that she doesn’t have to live in the life she does, that joy and happiness aren’t a thing that she fondly remembers. I can only hope before stress ages her too much, she wakes up, remembers who she used to be, what living life is like and gets back on the horse and stops living her life for someone else.
I think we should recognize out Mom’s everyday. They help shape us into the men and women we become, good and bad. Being a mother is a very special gift, and should I ever have the opportunity to have a child, my mother’s day will be spent with them, cherishing them for coming into my life, and allowing me to be their mother.
Onto something much less sappy… I’m officially down 51 pounds!! I can’t believe it! So proud of myself today. I just cannot wait til my finances are in better shape to go back to my WW meetings and see all the friends I made. I miss them so much. It’s nice to be over the 50 pound hurdle, it means I am more than halfway to my goal… in fact something like 38 pounds left… so close… I know I can do it by Christmas if I stay focused.
Living at home is manageable. I’m surviving. I’m having a difficult time scheduling things in though. Heading into the city 3 times a day just doesn’t work for me, so I have to try to fit as much in during one trip as I can, which is causing some stress on my relationship with my boyfriend. I can only hope he realizes it has nothing to do with him, and more to do with hours in the day and lack of money in my pocket.
I’m glad summer is just around the corner, I’m glad I have had job interviews. Now I wait to hear back on which opportunities will be offered to me.
On that note, I am going to go have lunch with my Nan, and perhaps head into the city a bit later. (Not too sure yet)
Again, Happy Mothers Day, to the mothers that were, are and yet to be.
XO
