Is anyone else having problems posting a title...hmmm...oh well.

Weekend was good. Hot, but good. Saturday night we went to a Cougars baseball game with my DH's work. Again, hot, but it was fun and Jos had fun. I think she likes all the people the best. She is a people watcher just like her mommy. We headed home by 8pm because she was getting a bit crabby (the baby that is). 7pm is her usual bed time, so 8 was pushing it. She went right to be though, and slept in a bit on Sunday which was nice (except we had to get up early anyway to volunteer at church).

After church, we went down to see my FIL at the hospital. Still doing OK, but not his best. They still don't know when he will be out of the hospital. It just seems odd that he is in the hospital for 2-weeks for diarrhea. Hopefully we will know more today.
Then last night, I broke down and did it. I ordered a new glider chair. You remember, don't you, I spend all that time making covers for that rocker chair that was my dads (the 70's retro black Pleather thing). I loved it, it was so comfortable and heck, didn't cost me much. Well, it officially broke beyond repair about a month ago. I have been rocking in a real rocking chair lately and hate it. I cannot lean back or get comfortable or anything. So I did it, I spend more $$ on a new chair. I didn't sit it in, I ordered off Amazon...hope I like it. Here is a pic:


Other than that...life is good. I had one of my fits this weekend about feeling like DH never does anything around the house and I ALWAYS do everything and how I am tired of the procrastination that we both have...it is making us lazy!! Once I got that all out...things seemed to be better. Why does it have to get to that point though. I don't know.

I also had a "I look/feel so fat" episode. I think I am just retaining water because AF is supposed to come this week. But I do...I feel huge. My arms, my legs, my face. I feel like I am pregnant again with all this weight I have lingering around. I wish I could lose this extra 10-15lbs. I am trying WW on my own...began it today. I have to stop being so lazy and kick it into gear. I am tired of seeing pictures of myself and thinking I still look pregnant. Ughh. So this is the start of a new week and a new mindset.

You'll love the chair...I've got one just like it!

I have those kind of meltdowns from time to time too. Sometimes it just feels better to have a breakdown.

Sounds like a nice weekend!!

The chair looks super comfy and I am sure you are going to love it!!!

I agree with Nicki, sometime you need to have a meltdown!!

Enjoy your week!

I too had trouble posting a title, I hope they fixed it by now...

I hope your father-in-law continues to get better, and out of the hospital.

The chair looks so comfy. It's funny, I already have my chair picked out for my nursery and I'm not even close to being pregnant. Hmm, priorities!

Hope you're feeling better today - about everything!

I love your new chair! It looks SO comfortable.

I hear you on the meltdown thing. Sometimes things just build up and then one comes out of the blue. But things are usually better afterwards!

Good luck with the weight loss. I always have difficulty when I have to dress up to go somewhere and I realize I don't have any nice dress clothes that fit me right! So frustrating. I am doing WW on my own too and so far it is working for me (although this hasn't been my first attempt!)
