Sundays of the past

Here I go again complaining....but this is the only place I can do it without causing an uproar at home. Paul made me a promise when we had Amy that Sundays would be ours! Well that lasted a long time. It started with "well I'll be back by the time you 2 get up" then it was after we had breakfast or by the time we are ready to leave and now today we are sitting here waiting until 12 or 1 for him to get done working before we can spend anytime together. It didn't really start digging at me until today when Amy and I were making pancakes this morning and she said we had to make more for daddy when he got up. I told her daddy was working and she started to cry. She knows on the day we go visit grammie and grampie that we have family time first. I got her to stop crying by making some for daddy too! He just stopped home for a few minutes and now she is upset again because he left! Its one thing to disappoint me all the time but he isn't doing this to my daughter! I guess I really need to do or say something drastic to give him a wake up call. This has to be nippe din the bud!
As for the weight loss its been going well but slow. I have been doing the elliptical 2 days a week for 20 minutes and water aerobics 2 days for 1 hour each time. I haven't been getting in all the water or the food so I guess this week I am going to get back on the wagan and get this thing moving a bit faster or I won't reach my next goal.
** On a good note, I have made some friends at school and don't feel like the old lady anymore!! I have even found one to workout with so that part of my life is really on an upturn!**
**I finally heard from a friend of mine that has been a bit missing lately...glad to know he is ok...and I hope all the pieces come together soon.**

I understand the concerns about family. I had a friend at one time who was always putting family second. I could only watch this for so long and after making a few comments... well lets just say he is no longer my friend. His wife never said anything, so needless to say things never changed. Not knowing all about what is going on, I still would say talking about it is the right thing to do.

As for the weight and exercise, glad to hear you are doing well (mostly). Good luck on both issues.
