Hanging out with the people that mean the most to you is so fun..... tonight was just a lazy day with my Husband.... doing things around the house... and then we had some friends over.... well in all reality they were my friends Cara and Ashley so Poor David once again was the only Male in the house HA HA..... Girl time is so fun just to laugh and make funny videos and make jokes..... ahhh haven't had one of these nights in a while.... feels good.....
Tomorrow i am really looking forward to.... Felicia is going to come down and hopefully i will be able to see Kyler :) with David being so sick its been really hard to get to get out there and i am really DYING to see him :P
Yesterday I went to my cousin Allison's Wedding shower.... she will be getting married on Oct 9th to one of the SWEETEST guys i think i have ever met..... I'm so happy for her... and the shower was AWESOME!!!! Her couples shower will be in two weeks so that should be fun and then..... the BACHELORATE party and the weekend after is the wedding...... only one more "Sweeney" wedding after this one.... NOTE: to Katie when you get married its onnnnn cause it will be one of the last ones for a while!!!! for those of you not in the "Sweeney" family.... or haven't been to one of our weddings..... they are EPIC.... they are so fun no one wants to leave!!! they are simply the best..... I know Allison and Justin's wedding will be Beautiful and their reception will be forever remembered!!!!! :)
Well Cara just made it back over here and David is waiting for the computer so I guess this is enough rambling for now :)
XOXO

been sooooo long
WHOA it sure has been along time since i have found the time to sit down and update this... although i think about it all the time... its so hard to find time... it really makes you realize time is the most precious thing..... well since this was originally about my "road to recovery" i will update.... since March i believe i have lost 42 lbs :) Although the last month has been a STRUGGLE for me..... David has been suffering from these awful headaches, which landed us in the ER.... well a spinal tap was done.... and after that spinal fluid was leaking out.... OUCH!!! this made him have terrible pain and so off to different doctors we went.... co-pay... after co-pay.... after co-pay..... we FINALLY got to a neurologyst Dr. K who put David into the Hospital for a couple of days sealed up his spinal leak and all seemed to be fine.....until about 5 today he came to me and said he had a bad headache :( so he is in bed while i sit here updating this.... please excuse my punctuation, i am one tired mama :) so I'm hoping after taking his pain meds and going to sleep for a while his headache will be gone.... a little PRAYER would be appreciated :)
As for my daughter Erin she is growing like a weed she is now TEN years old and in the 5Th grade.... she is at her grandpas Nascar races right now.... she is checking out a car for her as she will be racing soon her self..... SCARY..... but there are smaller children than her that race so i guess all is good..... well as I'm sitting here I'm thinking i might go get a cup of coffee and cuddle up to a Life time movie...... I SWEAR I'M ONLY 25 dang you life ;) hope all is well with you whoever is reading this.... XOXO

Welcome 2010
Well hello 2010..... had fun last night spend some much needed time with my Best Friend Cara.... wished i had my other to besties with me, but i was sooo glad that Cara was there.... We spend the night pretty much low key....and brought in the new year (hey I'm just glad that i saw 12 AM this year) HA HA Erin went to my parents and they popped crazy amounts of fire works (which is cool cause in our neighborhood we cant pop them. So she had a Blast there..... No working out was done yesterday (as imagined HAHA) but it was a good day! The beginning of 2010 has been pleasant to me. Today i spent some quality time with my daughter and now I'm spending some much needed quality time with my hubby (well aside from typing this, but he is right here so it counts right?) ahhhhh family and friends are sooooo GREAT to me that's the thing that matters most...... treasure your family and friends.... tell them you love them and how much they mean to you everyday...... you never know what tomorrow will bring..... my MOMMA and DADDY are going to come hang out with us tomorrow and hopefully Felicia will to so it will be another GREAT night with family!!!!! well I'm off to bed..... I'm sure i will be on tomorrow with something new to say..... until then, be safe!!!!

The start.....
When does it hit you? When do you realize that what your doing isn't working for you or your family? Well for me it was when i realized (with the help of some very special people) that i didn't love my self. Ive never had a problem loving anyone else... i love whole heartedly, but i didn't love myself...i was at the point of when i looked in the mirror i didn't know who i was looking at. i didn't love the way i looked i didn't love the way i acted and i started to not love my life. For those of you who dint know... i have a BEAUTIFUL family a 9 yr old daughter who is sooo BEAUTIFUL (Erin) a husband who i love with my whole heart (David) wonderful parents who i dint know where i would be with out them(Don and Lee) and wonderful in laws who love ME! (Lee and Marilyn) I have friends that people would kill for who are always there to pick me up when i fall.... i have nothing in the world to feel sorry about! BUT i had it in my head that i did....
So last night while "pouting/ feeling sorry for my self " in bed i realized i cant live like this.....
SO starting today this is MY road to recovery DAY1
when people read Road to Recovery.... i imagine the first thing that pops in their head is drugs, alochol, or some other kind of addiction..... well for me that's not the case at all.... for me its LOVING MY SELF SO THAT I CAN LOVE OTHERS THE WAY THEY NEED TO BE LOVED.... that's the first step and THEN and only THEN i can move on to making my self into who i want to be (i want to loose weight and be healthy) i want to be there to see my daughter grow up and have children. i want to grow old with my Husband. So i will be Blogging everyday and posting pics... on how i am doing with the weight loss... and also let you know what i will be doing and whats going on in my life!
XOXO
