A little bit less of me!

Can't find my Mojo...

Well, that's not entirely true. My personal laptop is about ready to die, and most days I'd like to throw it in the street and run it over. And my work issued laptop... dead. No idea why. It worked when I brought it home for the summer, then all of a sudden... dead. Won't even turn on. So I'm practically computer-less at the moment. Because to get on this one is pure torture. I feel like I'm back in the days of dial up with how long it takes to get from place to place. I will be looking to rectify this situation soon so any laptop sales you see going on, let me know!

I can't believe how fast summer school went. I still can't believe I had to say goodbye to my kids today. I seriously almost forgot. Then hugged and kissed them to the point of annoyance before I put them on the bus. We had such a great summer, and it hardly felt like work... with the exception of the battery I endured from B this year. Which come to find out was not at all his fault, a change in meds mid-summer was the culprit. But that was rectified quickly so we ended on a much more gentle note. We ended the summer today with a trip to the movies to see the Sm-urfs, which was thoroughly entertaining.

As an early B-day pressie my parents gifted me this:
And then we went shopping and bought this to put it on:
Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics... don't feel like getting out the real camera. The cabinet is actually a buffet server... but I have such high ceilings that I needed something with more height than a TV stand, so I found this and I LOVE IT!!! Happy early birthday to me!!

On the weightloss front I am struggling to get to the 80lb mark. It IS summer, and the food and cocktails are never far from reach... But I just think back to when I was writing about trying to pass the 40lb mark (and I chuckle at that now) and how annoyed I was and I think... ok, I can do this to. It will come, and I will continue to move forward. I've never felt this good in my life, and that's all that matters.

Tomorrow, for my first day of summer vacation, I have a Dr. appt. I know... nothing like starting off my vaca with some good times at the Dr.. But this is an important appt. I'm heading to the RE. (I can't believe I put that in print!) It's just the very preliminary appt, so don't go jumping to any conclusions just yet. But I figure.. if I went as far as to move this blog so that I could be more true to myself and what I want to share, I want to put it out there. I'm going to "try" to have a baby. And by try.. I mean, find out if it's even a possibility. I'm not exactly young, and I don't know if it's even possible. But I figure with this long wait in the adoption line, it's worth a shot at least. So off I go... send positive thoughts please!!

I figure that's enough for your brains to digest in one night...

Smooches loves...
