Well DAMN

Ok so I have not done well. I am currently up to 249 as of this morning. It just makes me want to cry. I binged last night at a friends house for her daughter's first birthday. They had little slider burgers. I ate like 5. I had about 2 and a half pieces of cake. BLAH... I did however look into onoline meetings for Overeaters anonymous today. I am not sure if I will "attend" one but it is an option to get some support and see if I really have a problem.

On the home front!
We have moved. We settled on May 27. On May 28 we had carpet removed and hardwood installed. During installation the contractors found rotting floors in one bedroom. Turns out there was a slow leak from the chimney. (No cricket was ever installed but don't ask what one is) The wall is also rotten. We are missing a few studs as well as the joist the studs sit on. This is costing us about $2775 to fix.

Meredith has been sick since we moved in. After about 4 days of sniffling, sneezing, runny eyes, snot all over, and waking at night...we went to the Doctor for allergy medicine. He took one look at her and said it looked like allergy. My theory- we moved into the woods and we were outside more often. The previous owners had a cat. The house has been vacant for a year. We tore up carpet thus dispersing massive amounts of dust. She had been playing on the floor in the sunroom where there is no AC and the windows were opened to let the pollen settle in the carpet. It was just too much on her little system. Her daddy and grandmom (my mom) both have hayfever. Poor baby...The deck was stacked against her. She is on Zyrtec now and has Pantanol eye drops. She is still a little congested but no where near what it was.

School ended and now I have time to start getting this house together. There are boxes and stuff piled in the living room. We have no furniture for there so it became a catchall. Unfortunately seeing it all the time overwhelmes me and here I sit typing. So many life shanges really made this a tough year.
