Stand back...

I am here and I am going to make my mark on the world... with what, you may ask? I don't know JUST yet but I will do something. Even if its for my own sake, but something that at least a few will remember me for. :-)

Okay... I was on a mission to get through all my emails... all 180 of them.
And mission accomplished!
I only have about 70 of them in my inbox... and only half of them are still reading as though they are still new since they are ones that I have to follow up on.

And my boss just informed me that she will be cc'ing me on even MORE emails... so I have to get something in place before she gets back in the office on Friday so that I can be ready for the avalanche of emails that I will be receiving.

I have a bunch of out of state travel forms that I have to get together for her to sign and turn in... she will be traveling a lot in the month of October.

So this morning, I am walking inside of my building towards the escalators to get to the elevators and something just came to me. I don't remember taking that same walk yesterday morning. It seems that I don't remember making that trek from the subway to my desk... and this isn't the first time that it has happened to me either. 

Kind of scary come to think about it. It seems that I am losing chunks of time in the morning when I am walking. Am I thinking about something that I am on autopilot when I am getting here in the morning that my mind just does it's own thing and gets me here in one piece?
Thankfully I don't have to walk outside when I get here... and I was losing chunks of time, I think that I would be even scarier.

So last night was another accomplishment for me at Weight Watchers... I am down another -1.2 pounds for the week. So my first month back on Weight Watchers, I am down a total of 6.8 pounds!!!!! OMG!! How amazing is that! I am so proud of myself.

Hopefully by the time we get to the trip in December, I will see a HUGE difference in my weight. But just taking it one day at a time and wishing for the best in this journey that I am taking for myself.

I am so happy that I am taking this journey of weight loss yet again... but this time it is for good. I am not going to let anything get in my way because I need this for myself.

The new year is going to be full of great things, I just know it... and I am going to make sure that it is. No matter what is done, as long as my family comes out ahead, I am happy with that. I need to make sure that my family is doing great both physically and mentally. That is going to be my goal for the rest of my life... to make sure that my family is good. And I need to start with myself. Once I get to my 5% goal of weight-loss (which is 12 pounds), I think that I will finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. 

I am not saying that the light of the tunnel of 12 pounds is my final goal, it just gives me hope that I am finally makes strides in the right direction towards my final goal of weight loss. 
And I know that with the grace of the Lord, I will get there. HE's gotten me THIS far, and I know that HE will continue to give me the strength that I need (and crave) in order to fight ahead.
And the good "fight" is what I am looking forward to continue to do in this life.

**and here I thought that I wasn't going to have anything to write about today**

I know that I mentioned that we took Mayalis to the movies on Sunday... but I didn't have a chance to upload the picture that she let me take of her with Nemo.


My little girl is getting so big... you can't deny that!!! And the little girl is so smart... she recognized the movie theater as soon as we drove up to it. She knew EXACTLY what we were going to go and see. And even though she didn't like the 3D glasses - which was a first! - she surely enjoyed the movie; and we enjoyed it right next to her. 


On another note, I still haven't heard from my OBGYN about the referral to the fertility specialist. :-( I was hoping that I was going to hear back from them at least by Monday and here we are, Wednesday, and not a peep. I guess I will have to contact them about the referral and see if they have gotten anything back. I would really want to know what the insurance tells them and I want to get pregnant with my next child as soon as possible.

As soon as I find something out, I will surely make it known...


Looking forward to this weekend... it should be a nice one.


And growing my wings I am doing... doing it slowly but I will get there.
