Back from Conference…Hubby so sad….

Well actually it was a Women’s Retreat with my church at the Embassy Suites and we had a ball. It was a time to relax and unwind! And of course I exercised lol I did SALSA Aerobics early saturday morning and it was so fun!!!  

My hubby made it safely to TEXAS on Saturday morning and hasn’t stop calling me crying about how sad he is and alone and how he misses his family and feels like he made a big mistake.  And you guys know I’m not one to throw it in his face but he wouldn’t listen to anyone and now he is stuck there for 6 months. 

It was so sad he was crying so bad i had to give the phone to my Pastor and let him talk to him! Oh well….now he knows how I felt and how I was crying and sad he was leaving. Anyway…..I’m off to OHIO on Thursday to pick up my nephew…I know I know always on the run…but his mom is strung out on drugs and my brother needs my help.  Mom is not coming but you know I have already made arrangements for a sitter…so all is well.

I’m glad DUPREE is here with me and don’t know what I am going to do in June (probably drive you guys nuts) but I dreaded going to my empty bed by myself last night and didn’t get into bed until well after midnight.

As i told my husband it will get better! Missed you guys so much; caught up on  a few blogs will catch up again today! Thanks for your prayers for my hubby and continue to keep me in your prayers and as always remember:

STAY POSITIVE!!!!

NEW PICTURES as promised!! And a bathing suit lol lol

It’s 4:35 a.m. and of course I couldn’t sleep being on the phone with hubby and ensuring he doesn’t get lost lol lol anyway on to bigger and better things!!

You know it’s always good when you can track your progress and what better way than with photos! So I posted some new photos mainly of me in my new suits and yeah SHANNA I did the bathing suit but dared not to show my legs lol lol I was laughing so hard and Brittany was like mom you look real good…who cares not that bold yet I already feel as if I am naked lol lol. I have lost my boobie’s and I want them back lol.

Me and my buddy ROCHELLE (she is going to kill me) are going to post full body bathing suit pictures at the end of April so I have to get started on the BOOTCAMP ABS for lower body man it kills you but it works wonders…

 On my home page (hit view) and you will see all three photos so you can see the difference from 281 to 248 to 223. Wow didn’t realize how much I have changed. I want to lose 40 more lbs but my entire family says I’m too thin now well sorry not over 200lbs I’m not lol.  Anyway I’m thinking 185 will be just fine for me! 

Hubby left and it was real sad; I cried uncontrollably…I prayed with him to have a safe trip and stayed up all night checking on him….he should arrive Saturday morning! Please keep him in your prayers and thoughts for a safe journey! 

It’s going to be a wonderful day and I have to get out of my house people coming to look at it (I wish they would buy it already lol lol) anyway going to my Conference later on today after I get Dupree from school dropping him off  to his mom’s and Brittany is going to dad’s she leaves tomorrow!

So buddies have a wonderful day:  And remember STAY  POSITIVE !!! Have a great weekend guys won’t be back until Sunday.  If I get a chance I’ll check in okay! Love you guys remember to pray for hubby and keep him in your thoughts!  Thanks so very much!!!

Today is the day!!! Hubby leaves in 12 hours…

Well I took off today to help him get situated we have alot of running around to do; still numb but hey what can I do…Getting my hair done at 1:00 p.m. and then I;m going to pose and let Brittany take new pictures to post…still trying to decided if I am bold enough to post the pix in bathing suit lol lol lol it looks great but you know I’m kinda shy lol lol lol

I have to do something to laugh guys yesterday was a crying day so I’m focusing on how hard I’ve worked and the compliments I’ve been receiving can’t wait to post the pictures….this will be my first night in my bed alone (except when he made me mad - lol) but I;ll be okay! Just keep me in your prayers!  Have a great day buddies and remember: STAY POSITIVE!!!

Biggest Loser Question?

Now those of you that watched last night; remember the challenge and Jay won and had a choice between 1 pound loss or $10,000 dollars. Now seriously who would’ve took the 1 pound vs. the $10,000 dollars. I personally would’ve taken the CASH!!

Hubby leaves for Texas tomorrow….ugh

Well…the day has finally come and I still don’t know how i feel. I want to say that I am happy but I’m not…Anyway short and sweet please keep me in your prayers as I will need them during this time.  I have on new skinny jeans lol size 14 CHIC boot cut so i feel good physically just emotionally well…you know.

Anyway I’m late on my way to work…Remember STAY POSITIVE!!!

There’s no place like home…ah…

Well I came back to PA yesterday after a wonderful week/weekend with my family! Totally exhausted but loving every minute of it!  My brother couldn’t believe it was me…he said girl you are getting way to skinny….lol imagine that me getting too skinny. I did come back for my weigh-in and lost another 2 lbs. I was happy because I was with my family and did eat some cheesecake lol lol it was so good.  Anyway I am off to Philly and New York to take care of my office matters.

I did a lot of traveling this past week/weekend and really feeling it. I didn’t exercise this morning but I will this afternoon. As tired as I was i did go to Macys they are having a suit sale buy one get one free so I was excited to go to the regular size and try on two suits that fit so great…and that is great motivation for me. I did want some popcorn but after trying on the suits and seeing how nice they fit I decided later for that.

Well buddies…have a wonderful day…missed all of you guys so much. Will catch up on blogs later and in two weeks I’ll be back in Ohio…there is no place like home!!!

Remember: STAY POSITIVE!!!

Weigh-in today!!!

Okay so my nephew Brittany and I drove from Ohio to PA yesterday.  We arrived at 12:40 a.m. this morning! Can you say tired? After my weigh-in we are driving back to Ohio to take my nephew back and flying back to PA on Monday.

I forgot all about Spring break and since I fly for free I fly on stand-by and everything was completely sold out so I had to drive.  Anyway got to run to my office fax documents and then hit the road after my weigh-in.  I’ll try to let you guys know how I did either today or Monday.

Have a great weekend and remember: “STAY POSITIVE”!

Mom coming with me for 30 days!!! YEAH!!!

Okay so my flight was sold out and I rented a car to drive back to PA today for my weigh-in tomorrow. Then I’m coming back to Ohio and flying out on Monday…I know, i know too much.  Anyway my mom is going to come to PA with me on April 5th for 30 days to help with my nephew so that will be great!

I know i will be blessed for all that I do so …my mom and I are off to Walmart. Britt  and AJ and I will get on the road about 3:00p.m. to head to PA. HAve  a great day buddies and STAY POSITIVE!!! Love you guys!!!

I guess I’m the Angel of the family!!! Sad sad news…

Well all was going great until I got a call from my brother (AJ’s - my nephews dad) his mom called and said to come and get my nephew as soon as possible and when my brother got there she was strung out on drugs….so sad and I just cried and told my brother not to yell at her at least she called.

I am still in West Virginia and now we’re trying to decide what to do with my nephew. My brother wants me to take him for a month; I don’t have a sitter and don’t know what i am going to do. My mom really can’t handle him so I guess I am the angel of the family after all. And I love my nephew with all my heart.

Brittany has a chem lab at 12:00 noon and then we are heading back to Ohio. I am going to see my nephew’s mom and give her and hug and let her know that I still love her. It is just so sad and I have sympathy for her because my brother use to be hooked too. Thank God he has 5 years clean. So here is Angela to the rescue again.

I looked at some condo’s yesterday before heading to WV and they look real nice want to purchase one by August!  Just keep our family in your prayers. I’m in the hotel business center writing this; EURO SUITES very nice hotel if I might say so!

Going to find a gift for Brittany’s big sis and then heading out! Have a great day buddies.  I’m leaving out at 5:00 a.m. for a 9:30 a.m. meeting in New York on Friday so just keep me in your prayers and through out it all: STAY POSITIVE!!!
