Taking time off...

from the bloggy world.  I just honestly don't have time to keep up with it anymore right now.  This is not goodbye as I will be back.  We have a lot of changes coming up and I will have a lot to share with you!  However, I will be keeping up with your blogs.  I may not get a chance to comment, but will be stopping by to check in on you when time permits.  Sorry about this, but sometimes life just takes control and you have to re-prioritize. :)  I know you all will understand.  I promise, I will be back! :)

Lots of love and hugs,

Blogger Biggest Loser - Week 4

Happy Monday guys and dolls!  How was your week and weekend?  Great, I hope!  We had an AWESOME vacation but are SO happy to be back home and in our own beds.  It's always nice to go away, but even better to come back home!  We are exhausted and did nothing but lay around all weekend for the most part.  We ran a few errands, cooked, did laundry and caught up on our DVR and sleep (we slept a lot)!

While we were away, I didn't really eat that well.  I had TONS of YUMMY food shoved in my face the entire trip and just had NO willpower at all.  I ended up gaining almost 5 lbs. which is ridiculous!  However, ever since returning home, I've been back on track and have at least lost some of the weight again.  Unfortunately, I seem to go back and forth with the same 5 lbs. - do you, or is it just me? *sigh*  Of course, I could really use more willpower too.  That seems to be my BIGGEST problem ever - mainly on the weekends when I'm home instead of busy at work. 

2 weeks ago my weight was:  131.2

Today -  131.2

Not a loss but not a gain either.  At least I was able to lose the weight I put on while on vacation.  I did manage to work out yesterday for about 45 minutes.  I walked a mile on the treadmill for 20 minutes and then did a few weights.  Nothing much, because I didn't have anyone there to show me how to actually work the machines.  :(  

Well, thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!  I'm on my way to catch up on your blogs now and see how you did for the week!

Lots of love and hugs,

It's Vacation Time - WOOT WOOT

Happy TGIF guys and dolls!  How are you?  Great, I hope!  My husband and I are leaving today for vacation and are SUPER excited to say the least!  It's going to be a VERY long trip - we are driving - ugh!  One leg of the trip is going to be about 18 hours alone. :(  First Stop - Illinois and Indiana to see my husband's family that we've not seen in over 10 years.  We love his family and he's super close to his cousins there and we can't wait to hang out with them all.  We will spend a few days in Indiana and Chicago before heading back down towards Arkansas.  We will then meet up with his mom for a night or two before moving on to our daughter's home.  After that we will be making our way back home to Texas.  Like I said, we are so excited, but it's wearing me out right now just thinking about all of the driving.  But, Steven and I love road trips together and can't wait to get some alone time.  We are both ready for a break away from the daily grind.  

So what's on your weekend agenda?  Anything fun and exciting?  I'm not sure how much blogging I will be doing over the next week, but promise to catch up with your blogs when I return.  I will have a lot of pictures  to post each day from our trip.  I hope you have a great weekend ahead and be sure to check back here next Monday, if not sooner, to see highlights from our trip! :)  And because I don't like to do a post without pictures - here you go:


Thanks for stopping by!  :)

Lots of love and hugs,
