SAD little post

Yesterday I had to take Jacob to the dr. He has staph infection on his lower abdomen, on his pants/ waist line right where his pants snap. ITs GROSS. It is draining and I have to clean it and med it up. Poor dude he is not yet ten and had to suffer through ha Dr  mashing on it. :( they are very painful.

This is Jacob… He is in the below video. doing his praise n worship in his style… RAPN

Also today my husband lost an uncle. My kids loved UNCLE ODIE as we called him… OTIS PRESCOTT rest in peace.

On a side note i weighed myself today. I lost another 3.3 pounds in less than two week and over the Christmas Holiday no less. <PATS SELF ON BACK>

I want to be 27 pounds lighter by March 13th for my cruise.

A step back to Christmas EVE

We all ended up at my mom and dads for Christmas Eve.

We read the real Christmas story from Luke.

Below is a picture of Makayla reading her section of the story.

My nephew Jamie read his part.

Then the presents ensued. My brother and my nieve are hear opening their presents.

My mom and dad opening their presents.

Fun was had by everyone. the floor was covered with presents and wrapping paper.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

SOUP

I have been on a diet since September. I have lost 30 pounds so far. It is a combination of the Atkins diet. Maybe a little more extreme, In some areas at least. I have very few carbs a day. The carbs I do take in are from veggies. I have completely cut out sugar, bread, potatoes, rice and pasta. Today I made a pot of soup. It is low carb. It has fresh frozen tomatoes from my garden this summer. onion, cabbage, green beans, chopped left over steak, water and garlic.

It smells so good in the house. I can’t wait to sip on this.

   Wayne and I are planning on going on a cruise in March and I hope to loose about 2 to 30 more pounds by then. If I dont I wont be discouraged. I feel so much better already.

Yes the difference may be little but its there.
