Its been awhile since we have blogged. Yes we too have been very busy and sometimes we just have time to read blogs. But to be honest I made time before, I need to make time now. I think trully we haven't really blogged because we are disappointed in ourselves. The last two months have been incredibly busy for us yes, we have had two Bake sales, fundraisors for Relay for LIfe, and another one here in two weeks. Along with those bake sales though comes two things excitement that we raised almost $5000, and knowing that after the next one we will push ourselves over that $5000 mark!Yippee we are really proud of that! But on the other hand the second thing makes us very upset, we have not been eating well. We have eaten items while baking, we have went out to eat alot these past few weeks and we both have gained. So this is it, its a new day and we are getting our heads bac in this. We are planning on going on the cruise with everyone in April and I refuse to buy clothes in the size I am now. I WILL BE SMALLER. I feel excited when I get to log on here and put that we have lost weight, even if its just a pound, so we are excited that we are commited to becoming healthy and we are excited to say today is the day and this life is our life and we are taking it back and going to live life to the fullest and that means get healthy NOW.

PS I think we need to change up our site a  little also, so watch for changes coming soon:)

I first want to take this time to thank everyone who made comments on our site while I was ill. Everyones kind words meant alot! I am feeling much better now and Dave and I are tired of the fact we have let a month go by since we have really been serious about this. Just have got really busy, and that is no excuse. We both feel so much better when we eat right and excersise on a regular basis. Its been almost two weeks since I have been at the swim center and I miss it badly.We both have gained about 3 pounds each, that we aren't proud of but will get it back off. I worked so hard to get under 200 pounds, just to let myself go about that line again, I am back up to 202, darn it anyway, but not for long! I have to get it back off ya know, plus a whole lot more so I can strut my stuff on the cruise ya know:) I hope this finds everyone well and hope all you moms had a great mothers day. I had a wonderful day with all three of my children, my sister and my mom. I am very fortunate that we all live close enough to be able to spend mothers day with my mom and children. Hope you are all as excited about the cruise as we are!

Well, my last blog I mentioned I had the crud which started on THursday. Actually as the weekend progressed so did the symptoms, as of Saturday night, my hubby decided it was time I went to the ER. When it came down to me having a sip of water and that would send me almost out of my skin with pain, he said that was in and hauled my butt to the ER.(cause believe me, even if I am sick I usually can eat, no less drink water) So to make a long story short, I have a really bad kidney infection,very dehydrated, and...they are testing me for salmonilla I had salmonilla a year ago and let me tell you I wasn't as sick then as I am now. TOday is better, I can sit up without laying on top of my computer. I can keep my eyes open. Yes, the pain pills I am sure are alot of it, but whatever works. So I am missing another day of work, which bites but they will survive without me there. I should know the results from the tests sometime this week. Although its been an awful few days, there is one good aspect...I haven't eaten much of anything and anything I do eat doesn't stick around so hopefully the scale is good to me this week. Sick thinking I know, believe me I would trade it any day for a good ole workout! TIme to go take meds again and sleep, hope all is well with everyone out there and I will get on here every chance I can when not sleeping!

Good thing I went to the swim center and walked this morning because as the day progresses, I feel worse and worse. Our daughter didn;t feel very good yesterday, headache, body ache , sore throat and upset stomach. Well that is how I feel now. I only have two more clients to get through here at work then I am off for the weekend. I am so glad that I got my work out in earlier or I would be missing it today. I just want to go home and curl up on the sofa with a good movie. I will be back on here when feeling better. Take care everyone and have a good weekend
