Yaaay! I finally finished my appeal online! I'm giving myself a pat on the back for doing it even though it was really draining mentally. But it's done, so I can relax now and stop feeling so overwhelmed by trying to complete it. I feel like I accomplished something I didn't think I could do.

The weather here today is insane.  It's almost 90 degrees and the wind is almost gale force, full sunshine. I guess we're about to have a front come through or itis currently coming through. It's too hot and muggy to do anything outside really. We tried to play football with Zachary but the wind made it nearly impossible.

More good news ~I'm sleeping in the bed again! Yes! No more couch for me! I guess I'm losing weight slowly ( I don't know for sure ~ my scale is broken and I need a new one. ) because my clothes are starting to become loose. I'm still fat but I feel better about myself lately. My therapist pointed out that even though I'm overweight I can still be a beautiful person inside and out. She told me that both her daughters are heavy like me and had been most of their lives but were still beautiful women. That made me feel so much better. And my husband makes a point of telling me how much he's still attracted to me physically regardless of the weight gain. I guess he sees who I really am.

Not much else is happening. Zachary is on Spring break this week and I can't figure out what I'm going to do with him. We were hoping to take him to Wet N Wild one day this week but the weather's going to be too cold to go playing in water slides and such. Not to mention how expensive driving over there and eating can be. I was also going to take him to the beach, but that apparently is out too. Maybe we can go and still build sandcastles and look for cool shells and shark's teeth. He'd probably go into the water anyhow regardless. Whyis it that kids don't feel coldwater like adults do?

So I'm having a good day, and I think I'm going to go find ways to enjoy the rest of it. Hugs to all…
