It's nice to be able to find the silver lining, isn't it? It sure helps me get through some of those "bad news" days.
Wow, your posts during the depression times over the last 3 months have changed so much! Go back and read them and congratulate yourself! You are so great.
Look at you being all positive. That's great!
I'm with you on the 10 lbs things. ARGH! Not sure how they showed up, but I'm going to get rid of them again even though we're entering the worst time of year for that.
As I was reading this, #2 comes in with a reminder of something I forgot to do for her for school. Look like you and I both dropped the same ball on that. :)
Hope you're feeling better soon.
Hmm, I need to lose 10 lbss. too. Maybe you should start some sort of challenge for us?
November is a hard month.
Hope, hope, hope.
Bad news: found a hole in the crotch of my jeans yesterday.
Good news: I had bothered to wear underwear.
ROFL at the last comment on wearing underwear..now THAT is looking for the silver lining
I love how honest you are, but most importantly I admire that you are able to see the positive in each of these situations.
Haha! Becky, that was awesome. :)
Julie-
It's only because I chose not to re-hash this month. I honestly haven't had the best few days, but I decided I was tired of talking about it. But I guess that really could be the same as progress? Perhaps it could be...I don't know...
And hooray! Other weight gainers! Wait...I don't mean Hooray! I mean, What is Wrong With Us?! Yeah, that's better. :) I say we resolve to lose weight just because we should, rather than because we want to. I've done the want, now I need to do the should. Does that make sense? (thinking...thinking...)
Good News:
I read your post.
Bad News:
I have nothing to say.
:)
So, not only did our husbands both serve missions in Australia, they also share birthdays. Interesting. :-)
I've gained more weight than I am willing to face in the last month and the holidays are just starting...
OK, so I'm confused. I thought you were taking a blogging break, only to drop by your blog to discover you haven't? Huh? Glad to see you're here, nonetheless!
