My firm gave everyone Thursday and Friday off in addition to the normal holiday. My God was it needed. I have worked every day for the past two weeks and the past week and a half I’ve been working until 11pm. Now I am relaxing at home. So sweet. I’ll be leaving to my brother’s house in a little bit. This is one of those family weekends. I miss them sometimes, but they all have their own lives, so it’s like we have to make appointments just to chill. That’s why I don’t mind not going to visit very often. But then the friends I have there that are neglected. My father is trying to play the hurt role because I don’t see him every time I go home. Oh well, it’s not very different from when we lived in the same city, so what is different? Let me not go there.

I’ve been trying to think of things I can do to be healthier now. I know I say that things will change when I move, but I don’t want to continue to waste time like I already have. So next week I will make it a must that I exercise at the gym everyday because hey I’m still paying for it. Hopefully, since I’ll be at a different client, I can find better places to go to for lunch or will have a mindset to make better choices. I feel like I’m getting bigger even though the scale isn’t confirming it yet. So I need to nip this feeling in the bud.

I got some disturbing news from my sister today. She has reached a new all time high in her weight. She is 208 lbs!!!! She is not supposed to be that much. It’s funny in a way because I remember thinking that if I ever got that low I would be happy. But it’s not healthy for either of us. She’s trying, so all I can do is listen because I know she really doesn’t want my opinion and she has to do it for herself and educate herself for it to be a long term change.

Thanks Renee and Ninjette for the comments! I’m glad to be back and changing for the better. I’m glad to know that I still have faithful readers.
