Back to normal

I'm so glad things are back to normal, for now at least. Chris should be home for a while. We spent the entire day together outside and then took the kids to the state park for a while.

I wish I had something exciting to share with you about his travels but the most exciting thing he brought home was this picture of the Chicago style hotdog that he ate.

    I love this weather. This is the best time to be in Texas when it is snowing in up north.

He's home.

Finally, he made it home about 11:30 last night!

I found out I lost 17 pounds in one month. I'm excited. If I could just do it again next month!

    The thing is I cannot plan it until I know the date of our big Sports Banquet. It's in April sometime. Hmmm? I guess I will wait till I know.

Hey everyone.

Tomorrow Chris leaves for Chicago. His flight is at 11:55. He will be coming home Wednesday night. Thanks to everyone who remembered him (us) in their prayers during this last trip. He had a GREAT time in Charleston. He said it was a beautiful city and the food was great.

I've completed the third week of my new "weight loss" program. I've been studying with a dietitian and I have my own personal trainer at Citizens Healthplex in Victoria. It's been hard work but I've lost 12 lbs. so far. I sure hope by the end of this week I will reach the 15 lb. mark! That would be so exciting. The Healthplex is a great place and Judd loves the daycare!

Please remember to pray for my hubby during the week! I sure miss him when he is traveling.
  • whisperam
    Dee, that is fabulous about the program at the Health Plex. 12 pounds!!!!! AWESOME!!!!I know you'll do great!!! I will also pray for Chris as he leaves on his trip. If you all need anything, let me know. Love ya!

    That's awesome about your weight loss! My mom has been working out and dieting too! She's been at it about four months and she's lost 25 lbs. I am so proud of her.

As most of you know...

I do not like airplanes and Chris is going to be in the air again. He leaves on Wednesday for Charleston, SC and comes home Friday night. We will have Saturday and Sunday together. Monday he will leave for Chicago, IL and will return Wed. or Thurs. I think the Lord is talking to me, and he is saying...you are going to overcome this fear you have. Please pray for me and him!!! He is doing really well at his job and I am proud of him for that. So, I'm trying really hard to be supportive because I know that he works hard for our family!!!
  • whisperam
    Dee.. I will pray for you all. I know it is not easy having your hubby travel. Been there DONE that.If I can help in any way let me know.
