Ooof. Life seems to always get in the way...

Hello, friends. I have been gone for quite some time. For this, I apologize. As the title implies, life has gotten in the way. AGAIN.

About a month ago we found out that my grandmother (mom's mom) has pancreatic cancer. This threw all of us for a loop. I have not been dealing well with this. At all. That being said, I am quite surprised that I haven't completely gone off my plan. While it is true that I have not been blogging, I haven't physically dealt with this stress as I normally do. Normally, I get bad news, stress out and "depression eat". Very sad, but true. I have had a lapse in my exercise and walking, but (on a positive note) I have been going to the Y to get my butt (and the rest of me) back on track.

I am working out a schedule that allows me to do what we need to do, have a little of a life and get exercise done. I am glad that we have joined the Y because all of us can go together and have fun/get stuff done. Emily and Benjamin go to childcare while Becca and Kalah and I go upstairs to workout. Also, the Teen center is right down the hall and Mykalah found out she knows people that hang out there. It's a win-win as long as I can make it work.

Until next time, getting back on track.
Nicole :)

  1. this is such a BLIP in the big scheme of things! Don't let it get you down, my friend! I am proud that despite the stress and circumstances, you remain committed! Way to go! I see you check in at the Y on FB, so even if you aren't blogging, I know you are at work to meet your goals!
