Don’t Know What You Got…
…til it’s gone.
What happen to our beautiful city? Where are the roads?? Where is the RAIN?
SNOW.
I hate snow with a passion. Normally, the residents of Western Washington are lucky enough to get by most of the winter months without a drop of snow. I guess this year Mother Nature decided to make up for lost time.
I have been stuck in my house for 5 days. It sucks. I hate hate hate being cold and I really don’t like being a prisoner of my home. I did take a few treks in the snow to the store and back, but that really wasn’t all that much fun. There should not be 10+ inches of snow in SEATTLE!!! This city can’t function with 3 inches of snow.
Today I walked down to my sisters house and was looking through pictures taken August 16th. I swear at that point I’d been working out with the trainer a couple of times a week and I was going to the gym EVERY day. Well for some strange reason I seriously thought I was looking slim. I remember being at her house and my pants were falling off, yet by the looks of the pics, I wasn’t really all that much smaller. I confused. I look like the Pillsbury Dough Boy in the photos ( I had on all white). Now, I wasn’t really trippin out today other than thinking that by September 17th I was down to 183 and those same pants in the photo were now really falling off of me and I think the weight loss was pretty noticeable.
Fast forward to December and I feel as though I had a set back or something. I have been in the house a lot due to it getting dark by 4:30 pm. I have not been to the gym often although during November I did work out quite a bit. This month - NIL! The photos I viewed today reminded me of what my initial goals were and how I need to stay focused to my year end mark - July 8th 2009.
I’m not one to wallow in pitty or beat my self up, but I do have to keep on truckin… LOL! I would weigh myself tomorrow but I’m afraid I may slip into shock. With that said, I hope to have updated numbers by New Year’s Day.
I just hope the snow melts soon…I can’t drive in it and the buses in my neighborhood have all been cancelled. Sadly the gym is located downtown Seattle…I need a solution.

I hate the cold, too.
Why are we BOTH NOT IN FLORIDA or some other equally warm area? It’s ridiculous. I’m single and not all that tied to my extended family. Uh, like at all. :/ So why am I in Pennsylvania?
The job keeps me here most of the year, but as a teacher I should just leave here in June and not return until September. lol
re your goals: YES! Keep on truckin, dear lady! KEEP ON TRUCKIN!
