Ok, so I realized that I left this blog with a bit of sourness. I took a few days break and I've regrouped.

Overall we had a good weekend. We spent Saturday putting up the outside Halloween decs which was great. The kids had a blast with it and overall everything went well. Sunday dragged on and on and on though.

Patrick - stepson#2 bit my son on the arm. This is the 4th or 5th time he's bitten T-bone. Last week he bit Carter (stepson#1) so hard he broke the skin. I know he's only 4 but seriously, he should know better. He was grounded from the Wii. Then he tried to lie and say he didn't do it.

I don't know were this kid gets his violence from but it really pisses me off. I try very hard to use a soft touch when dealing with the step kids because I don't need them running off to mommy-dearest with BS stories about me doing bad things - we've already been down that path of lies and it aint pretty.

Everyone was ok though. Elizabeth had terrible tummy pains and I think she had a bit of a bug yesterday. She's at school today and feeling a bit better but she hates when I won't let her around baby Charles.

I'm plugging along at work and it's almost lunch time :)

Man, I need to find a way to motivate myself into losing weight. I'm such a pig and feel like I constantly need to be eating something. I'm just like my mother - ouch, that was painful to say.

I need a weight watchers friend. I just wish I could find someone. DH needs to lose some, ok a lot, of weight too. Maybe he could be my friend???

Time to start thinking about a plan of action. Whoa, listen to those rusty wheels start to churn - squeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkk!!!!
