Valentine's day and my favorite part--the little heart shaped candy!

---This Valentines day felt lonlier this year somehow yet I am blessed with a house full of kids who are amazing beyond my wildest dreams, they astound me every day..Yes even those "trying" days that all of us parents have. I am still under the weather fighting "the crud" as work calls it, a super cold if you will but I can attest NOTHING SUPER ABOUT IT! Haha! I woke up feeling like I could call in another day but work must be done and in all honesty I love love love my new job! I love what I do, I love my new bosses, it all rocks in my book with ZERO COMPLAINTS which that in of itself is amazing right? I was working away, eating my sandwich at my desk and my cell starts ringing...It is the dreaded daycare number! DAMN!!!! I answer it and I already knew one of the trio was sick but which one? Kind of like a fun guessing game but not...Haha! It was my Violet Millie...They said she threw up and needed to be picked up. PERIOD. So I informed my boss who was less than thrilled but understands as he is a Dr, a daddy and knows I am a single parent with no real help for that type of stuff. I drove to daycare, picked up all 3 because I was not going to come back in a few hours...and Violet was so happy! Hmmmm...strange? Yes, why yes it is...Happy is what she remained ALL DAY! So tomorrow anytime AFTER noon she can go back...I will drop her off at 1201pm darn it! :-)

Yet as always I digress....

I simply felt "off" today, I miss my family well being just that...A whole family unit but there are worse things The trio went to bed with zero fights, just kisses and cuddles from all 3 which is by far the best part of my day. Yet as I see others getting in shape I still feel very out of shape. I have lost so much weight and muscle it makes me sad. I look in the mirror and miss seeing my hips, thighs, etc that have been replaced with sagging skin. I want to tone, firm but first I must get this thyroid under control that still is not which is frustrating but my Dr said the first 6 months is the toughest. I want to be able to run, to run after my kids, take them on walks again without being winded. And finally I want definition to my body. I want to feel and look muscular and like a real women again, not one where her pants fall off if it was not for the cinched belt she wears day in and day out.

Finally to end on a high note, this has a whirlwind 6 months!! I have one every award I have been put in for and I am proud to say that this coming friday the 17th I will go up for what is called "Team Pete" for the year! Fingers crossed for me all, this has been one heck of a roller coaster and I want to thank everyone for continued support, positive thoughts, etc...I appreciate it more than you know.

Much love and blessings from CO!
