Almost the weekend

I know i haven't posted much this week, the one day i didn't feel like it, hubby & i were fighting (it's over) and if i would have come on here i would have aired our dirty laundry and sometimes i just don't need to do that lol. That day i won a permanent nail color application at a local salon, i love my nails but i have never got them done at a salon before so it will be nice, apt is next weekend. Yesterday i had an amazing day, work went well, then i also won a 3 month gym membership from the same radio station that i won the nail app. I win alot from there, i have their fb statuses sent to my phone and i win often enough that the morning announcer has nick named me the facebook animal lol. I think for one contest i had his answer posted 16 seconds after he asked the question lol.

Tomorrow (friday) will be 6 weeks since i quit smoking, and my next goal is weight loss, i was on track with the biggest loser wii game and this free website myfitnesspal.com tracking calories and exercising every day and i had lost weight and was noticeable but then i got sick, and it wouldn't go away, found out was bronchitis again and it lasted 6 weeks, i couldn't even do minimal exercise, i couldn't breathe. After that i lost my motivation, Now though that i quit smoking i didn't want to be doing too much at once so was going to go back to the program come spring. Now that i won this membership it will just give me that boost, the hubby will buy one for same length and we will go together, if we get down to a good routine then we may keep up with it after, or if we think we can keep it up on our own we may go that way, i know if we buy another one it is cheaper to buy the family one year than it is to buy the 3 months, well in the long run, cause 1 year family is the same price as 2 adult  passes for 6 months. My biggest challenge is i have a herniated disc in my back that indirectly puts pressure on my sciatic nerve which in turn cripples me (doubled over) and i can't walk/move. I am on a lifting, bending, standing restriction for life. I can't walk for exercise, so that is why i have to modify a program to fit my needs, and push myself real hard, i have to take a break OFTEN, and by often i mean in a 20 minute program i took a break twice where i had to actually sit down for 10 mins. Some things i am just unable to do. I will do this one way or another though, i was skinny all my life, even after having my son. I have only been like this the last 7 years or so and i am still not used to it or accepting it. 

I am hoping to lose 40 pounds by our social but we have to do complete change of lifestyle. Our suppers are decent enough, but we snack alot, and hubby is always looking for a snack, if i have to change my eating habits so does he. The biggest thing isn't what you eat, it is how much, and what else you have had that day. You can still have chips, chocolate, etc in moderation. Carrots fill me up so much during the day that i am not hungry so i think that will be my lean to food. I work at a vegetable farm where i can get them for free but then have to peel em lol. That is my fault, laziness in not wanting to peel anything. 

This weekend is going to be busy, i am going to go to bed late again tonight so that hubby can take me out for a late dinner when he gets home (8:30) as a date instead of tomorrow evening because he has worked a week straight now so i haven't had any time with him and he asked if he could take me on a date for supper tomorrow but if we go tonight we can relax at home watching one of our favorite shows and just enjoy each other's company and my son's too which is what we need right now. Especially since we have a huge day of walking on saturday, i hope they have chairs all over, we are going to THE wonderful wedding show, it is at the convention center, 2 floors, almost 500 booths. I have never gone before so that will be awesome. One of my bridesmaids and her daughter are coming with us.  I have a feeling G and my son will wander down to the men's floor and leave us to be lol. The nice invention of cell phones will make sure we find each other later. 

Sunday is a huge day too, we are going to his parents for lunch and then we have a meeting with the priest to find out if he will marry us. G is french and he is also catholic, he is from a french community & he is registered at his parents church and was baptised there, but he is not active anymore. We also live in a different community so the new rule is to get permission from the priest of the parish in the community you live in, but we live in a lil town outside it so he might not have too. I am hoping he will say he can marry us. Cross your fingers, otherwise we will just get the jp to marry us at the hall, my marriage co-ordinator (who is a friend) is also a marriage commissioner but i really want geno to have his wish of getting married in his parish (i have no faith so we can get married without me having to convert, they just don't do the mass) where his brothers were married, his parent's were married, etc etc etc. It is too small for the size of our wedding but it is beautiful, they have overflow on the balcony. People would just have to squish. 

I need to change the blog layout to make it brighter, i love the black and blue as that is me but...... it is not cheery enough.
