August 12, 2011

SO... I have been away from the blog for a few weeks due to some wildness in our life but I'm trying to get back to writing as I have found that it is very therapeutic even if no one really reads it but me! :-)

The past few weeks of our life have been very crazy and hectic with shifts in life due to jobs and one's health! As most of our friends and family know operation find a better job has commenced in full force over the past few weeks.. We are very lucky in this economy to have jobs, however, blatantly taking advantage of your employees after you put them in a bad spot is totally unacceptable (at least in my eyes)!

With this being said the Dukan Diet has been a little laxed the past week and a half! However, I do have to say that at least I did not totally kill the diet by carb loading.. I added just a few carbs to the diet mainly at dinner and still managed to keep from gaining weight (actually lost a few pounds)! In trying to sooth hubby during this crazy time, how could I not fix something with potatoes or rice at dinner, as he says?! Well, that is going to be stopping slowly for him as Monday, starts another new day of sticking to the diet! Especially, since we found out that hubby has high blood pressure :-( although when I think about it this is not very surprising considering how wild life has been lately.  

Thank goodness it is Friday though! We are leaving after work today to go spend the weekend with my parents in Jacksonville! Saturday, I know we will be at the beach (even if hubby is just fishing), then we are having dinner with our cousin and her husband which I know will be lots of fun!!! Sunday is the big day mom has a Big Dance Showcase in the afternoon with her Arthur Murray Dance Studio from Mandarin......I can't wait to see her dance, we have missed the last few dance showcases due to the time of the event....hoping I can drag my man on to the dance floor at least a couple of times!

I am looking forward to a great weekend!! Hopes that everyone has a wonderful and safe weekend!
