High Blood Pressure

Well my husband just found out he has high blood pressure.  You would think he was the only one in the world that had high blood pressure.  I have had high blood pressure since at least the age of 18.  My daughter found out when she was 14.  My father found out at 18.  Its just something that runs in our family.  He was put on medication and told he has to stop using over the counter medication for his asthma.  Which is what I have been telling him for years.  Does he listen?  Of course not.  Now he says he is scared.  Now maybe he will start to take care of him self.  Only time will tell.

IGNORE BUTTON

I am still not that happy with my so called friend.  Some times she must really think I am stupid.  When you call someones cell phone you can tell several things.  First you can tell if they are on another call.  Second you can tell if their phone is off or the battery is dead.  Third and the most important you KNOW when they hit the ignore button.   I have told her this in the past but for some reason she doesn't get it.  After the whole pool thing you would think she would not do it again.  But she does.  I would rather her just not answer the phone.  At least that way I would think maybe she was in the shower or something. 

What is a friend?

My son got hurt at a friends house last night. I had to take him to the hospital.  He had blurred vision and pain. He was playing in their pool when he was hit in the face by a pool noodle. He is ok, he has scratches on his cornea. Someone was suppose to be watching the kids.  My son says he didn't see any adults there.  Not sure if they were there but not right at the pool.  But if you are watching the kids and you see kids hitting each other in the face, then an adult needs to say you can not do that.  My neighbor was not home when this happen and I was unable to reach her.  Her kids were there also.  What if something worst happen?  God forbid something happen to one of her kids and no one could get in touch with her.  Then to top off the whole evening she tried to say you know how your son can be.  If the situation was reversed I would be kissing her ass and offer to pay the bill.  Where is my so called friend when I needed her?

"Today Show"

I am so excited the "Today Show" is coming to my house to tape a segment for their show.  It will be with Joy Bauer.  She will be going to people's homes to help them with what ever food challenges they have. I am nervous that I will freeze up or look so terrible on TV.  I am doing this for all the right reasons.  I am hoping that doing this all in a public fashion I will lose weight and become a healthy human being.Slim and Scrumptious: More Than 75 Delicious, Healthy Meals Your Family Will Love

Our Trip

OK so we did our trip!  It was beautiful!!  We really had a good time.  No fighting no dirty looks. I tried my best to be careful what I ate, while we were away.  But I can not say I was perfect.  We meant people from Canada, and people that live very close to use.  Its a small world. We saw lots of deer, but no bears.  The deer must have been so use to people we were able to walk right up to it.  The mountains were so beautiful.  But when the fog rolled in while we were driving up the mountain that was a bit scary.  There were a lot of bicyclist, on the roads, which made driving even more difficult.  You never knew what was going to be around the bend.  I would love to go again.

Weight Watchers

Well I started Weight Watchers the last week of April.  The first week I lost 4.8 lbs.  Now one thing you need to know is that I went to a different spot to get weighed plus I was first weighed in the evening the second time was in the morning. Then the following week I went to the first spot got weighed and was told I gained .2.  Now I am so confused.  I think from now on if I cant go to the first place I will skip my weigh in that week.  I doing what they call is a point system.  I am allowed 25 points a day plus you get 35 flex points.  So far I have not used my flex points.  Some members feel you should use the flex points.  I have decided yet about that.  Every time you exercise you can receive points also.  My thoughts on that is if you use those points what is the sense of exercising.

Next weekend is the big trip!! I am nervous and excited at the same time. 

Playing Games

My husband and I started fighting this morning over stupid things.  The first was when he asked me if I was getting in the shower.  I said yes I need to get in first because I need to run out and do stuff before the party.  Then he yells at me that all I needed to say was yes.  Which deep down in side I knew that I needed to tell him that.  Maybe I should have said to him this morning that I need to run out before we leave for the party.  Then I hear him fighting with our son who is getting in the shower next.  So I scream at both of them to stop fighting.  That my husband should get in next.   Think problem is solved.  NOOOO!  I rush to get ready and where is my husband out side washing my car.  Well guess who can not go any where.  Before I go out and say anything to him I take a deep breath and pour on the sweetness. So I ask how long will you be and he gave me a dirty look.  Then I say I need to run out before the parties.  He then says three hours.  I then say I guess we wont be able to go then.  He says good. I go in the house and try to calm down but can't.  I go back outside and calming say take your time cause we really  dont want to go to parties our son wants to make plans to go fishing.  He says ok tell him to go ahead.  So a little upset I go in and cancel both parties.  About 20 mintues later he comes walking in saying you can go get what you need for the party now.  Of course I tell him I canceled so I don't need to run out.  He dosen't understand why I did that.  He tells me how I have problems and that he was just being spiteful.  How he really didn't want to go to the first party because he dosent get along with this one guy and he really didnt want to see this other guy.  The whole time he is saying this he is yelling at me and telling me I need therapy.  Then after all that he says that we are going to the parties.
