Day 11 220.8

This week hasn't been a great week food wise and hasn't been a horrible week either (unless you're counting the half a cookie cake I ate for my birthday!).  Yesterday I took the kids to the Southern Christmas Show.  This has been a tradition in my family from the time I lived in Charlotte for a few years in the mid 90s.  When we went with my family when I was younger we would eat these enormous cookies with icing in the middle and fudge and strudel!  Yesterday I had nothing!  Not one single treat.  It was slightly depressing as for me, food is a very important part of special occasions and a lot of memories.

My sisters gave me work out clothes and dvds for my birthday which was very thoughtful.  I was reading the back of the dvds and noticed the length and I wanted to cry.  Not because I don't appreciate them, I do and I really want to exercise and since getting to the Y seems like an impossibility for the next few months I love the idea of the DVD.  I just don't know how to find 40-60 minutes to do it!  I'm already stressed about fitting in homeschooling, housework, and organizing my consignment sales and at present know that I am not doing any of those well enough so how do I add something else that takes so much time?  There just isn't enough time in my day to get done what I need to do without adding something else.  But I want to make time for it!  See the dilemma?  If not, come hang out with us for a few days and then you'll see what I'm talking about.
