Heavy Heart

You know you never know when its going to be your time to leave this earth. Every day i tell my family and kids how much they are loved by me. If anything if i ever had to leave this earth at least they would know how much i love them.

I have lost a loved one this week She was too young to go and leaves behind a 4yrold child. But the the worest part is On monday i drove by in the bus with lots of high school kids by the wreck site and i told them someone just lost a loved one............Never in my life would of i thought it would be someone who i babysat or lived across the street nor a family member. Then i get to work and find out it was my own . A long distance cousin . So now i will have to face that wreck site every day and think what a sweet girl the lord has taken to be with him .

Please pray for the Grimes family during this time of lost. And the child who will have to grow up with out a mother in site but a mother in her heart that she loved so much .

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

I hope this finds you all warm . It's pretty chilly out there. Karley has her last game this morning (sorta glad its almost over with too much drama with those parents out there ....think they should do their own game ) . Then i will come home and pick up and get kids ready for trunk and treat. Then come home and throw the candy away lol. (you would too if you saw the dentist bills i got on monday for these kids )


Weight
Its going on 11months and i started my journey at 296lbs and now i am down to 177lbs .

Now according to my Doctor he wanted me to stop at 165 so with that said i would only have 12lbs to go but i want to beat that and i want to go down to 140 so i have 37lbs to go i am so excited. I have set me a goal of doing this by Dec 29 so i am hoping with my best friend estban(mentor in support group ) and me working on this i will be able to get it off before then. I just hope i am strong enough with the holidays coming up that i can do this. I have to put my mind to it and pick the right foods and not the wrong. I KNOW I CAN DO THIS I KNOW I CAN I CAN I CAN ICAN >>>>>>>


Ok off here to get ready for game. HOpe you all have a safe Halloween and watch out for the kiddos.

Love
Juliet

Well i had a quiet weekend with my great kids. I am doing well. I went shopping and found my self looking at plus size clothes.......gosh if i knew the mental thing would never go away i am not sure if i would of had the surgery .....well i probably would but gees why cant my brain tell me i am in skinny folks area .......Well i bought karley some jeans and jump suit(she really needs pj's but she doesnt wear them so we got a jumpsuit instead she needs it for cheer) .

Tues i am going to see Dr Champion please say a prayer for me . I am actually very worried and scared about this visit (female check up its been 6 years ) but i have a few things going on in my body and need a doctor's two cents. Also i want her to check my cyst that i have had and see if it needs to be removed now that i have lost so much weight.

So if you can spare a prayer please . THANK you

she is all excited about school monday . i like her teacher so i know she will have a great year.

Bailey is doing well he just got back from church camp .(did it do any good ask me later still trying to figure that one out lol)
He will be going to new school and new teacher so i am hoping he has a great year.

HEY

Well sure you thought i felled off the edge lol. NO just been very busy around here. The month of july is so busy for us. Kids got so many things they are doing this summer.

WEll remember the camp i wrote about back in April that we got flooded in . WEll we tried doing it this past weekend. WEll after this deadly heat we are having here in texas we decide noon on sat we would shut down camp . Bailey was under the weather because of the heat i was about to die. That heat was terrible. So maybe our fall camping will be cooler.

This week is crazy from scrapbooking classes, to sending bailey off to camp (that he won) to starting work. Yep i start this morning in training on driving the bus. I am excited but know i will be bored out of my mind learning about the bus.

Karley will be enjoying some time with her granny while i am at work and Bailey will be at camp half of the week .


WEll i guess thats about it . I need to get my shoes on and get ready for work .


LOVE YOU ALL
JULIET
