Another weekend gone in the blink of an eye! I got some sweaty yard done Saturday afternoon, then later we had a fun family night out. Sunday was a much-needed relax day.
Before Sunday was even half over, I heard one of the kids asking their dad how long it would be before they are back here with us. I hate how rough all of this is on the kids, and I hate even more that it doesn’t need to be this way. Not at all. The only reason it’s so hard on the kids is because other people deliberately and willingly choose to make it that way, and I will never understand that. Seriously, why bother having kids if you are just going to selfishly force their lives to revolve your pathetic existence? That’s not parenting. That’s being a worthless piece of trash.
Anyway…(*sigh*)…moving on…
The first phase of the T.K.O. Challenge is done, and I updated my stats on the challenge tab of my blog. I met my goal for the first 3 weeks, and now I have set my 10-pound goal for the next five-week round, which ends October 13.
My weigh-in this past weekend was a good one: 3 more pounds gone! I’m excited but cautiously remind myself not to get over-confident. I have a long way to go, and keeping up my momentum and dedication over the long haul is going to be difficult. I’m determined not to let myself, or my husband or our kids, down this time though.
