Waiting for peace..

I had a goal of losing weight before my 30th birthday. This past weekend I reached my 30th birthday but my weight lose goal had to be put on hold after 3 months of back to back surgeries. I’ve finally trying to get back into a routine and am going to curves 3-4 times a week. I’ve already lost 4-5 lbs since the beginning of January so it’s helping. My body isnt quite ready for a full schedule I suppose since I’ve been bombared w/ several different infections since my surgeries. Today I’m battling an infection in my foot from the dissolvable stitches not dissolving, a sinus infection and bronchitis. A few weeks ago had a uti that the dr said was a result of my hysterectomy that was the kind of infection you get while in the hospital!
Trying to lose weight so I can hopefully get healthier and prevent my rising blood pressure from being a problem as well as to avoid type 2 diabetes as I’m currently pre-diabetic and have a family history of it so it’s looming just waiting for it’s chance to jump on board all my other health battles.
Maybe I can meet my weight lose goal for my 31st b/day!! 🙂 As a family we’re starting to do a journey toward financial peace as well, but physical peace would be great too! One of my main reasons for getting all of those surgeries done was so I could start the year off with better health.  These last few weeks have me worried I may never get that opportunity.   I know this may be a temporary thing but once things seem to be going well something else sneaks up on me, health-wise.   I have to remind myself my last surgery wasn’t all that long ago and was a major one but my stomach feels fine, so I can’t bear to use that as an excuse!

I had a job interview yesterday for a front desk position at a hotel.  I was told they’d contact me today with their decision.  I also put some ads out there offering in home childcare and got an email about that today.  So either way I hope to be able to start to finally help out financially!!

well it’s time to get lunch ready for the kids!  Dean’s supposed to be coming home to help w/ that, and I am so grateful to him for putting up w/ my weaknesses!   I’m on day 2 of antibiotics but today I’m wheezing worse than I have been so I’m actually feeling worse than I had been!   Hoping it’s one of those where you get worse before you feel better deals!
