Detours

Funny how you can be traveling down a familiar road and not see the detour coming. Suddenly you find yourself slamming on the brakes in anticipation of a route change. I recently switched to a Wednesday meeting because I thought the day and time were going to work much better for my life situation; and then the detours came.

I missed my WW meeting the first week of July because hubby and I were on vacation away from home base. The next Wednesday came but I had dinner plans with a friend who is moving to Germany for a few years. I felt it was probably going to be the last time I would get to see her so I went. Ok so now I am looking at the third week of July. I am all set to walk through the door of WW again when hubby has a heart epsiode. On that Wednesday my detour began at 9:15 in the morning and wasn't over until tonight,yes another Wednesday, at 7:22 pm. when we finally put hubby's heart rhythm back on course.

I feel like I am finally back on course. I am shooting for my weigh-in next Wednesday. My fingers are crossed. ;)

Just Another Day?

I have always had a thing about my birthday. I dread the thought of getting older. I hate that I feel alone in the world. I hate that it is in July. My birthday was today. My hubby knows I hate this day. His response? "Honey it's just another day that I get to love you." or he tells me to relax which in turn makes me more tense. I know I am a little off center but that is who I am.
Today was in truth really just another day but the little girl that dwells in my heart hoped for something more. Only after hubby took me to my favorite restaurant for supper did I realize that my life is spectacular. I am lucky enough to have found the one I am happy to share my life with, my soul mate, my friend, my hubby.

...and it is just another day that I get to love you.
