Cripes

A lot has been happening, so what else is new.

My work location moved, my mother moved, others are going to move, too much stuff needs to move, and omg, I tired of packing and unpacking my life.
*chuckles* the only packing I want to do right now is backpacking...but the spring time and sunshine are not really cooperating currently. *grumble*

But I can say on some levels things are starting to balance a bit, but then something else comes up.  Something else to worry about, something else to consider, something else that causes upheaval ... so we take that step forward to find out what it is and can be done.

With balance the sun is teasing us...so maybe just maybe the only packing I will do for a while soon will be the backpacking and hiking trips I long for and physically need.

My medical issues changing my body enough that I have packed on 25lbs from where I was a short three years ago is not only disheartening but down right frustrating.  But I am trying to maintain a positive attitude as I get teased by the sun with hopes of finding my means of weight removal.

I know I seem obcessed but when my top weight in life was 218lbs and I am just under 5 foot tall, that is just too round and the health issues in my family...good gawd.  So, I lost 48lbs the first time, the crap kicked in pushing me back up to 199lbs when I hit my "wall" slowly going back down to 185 then with some motivational help that I had...which honestly was minimal really but it apparently was what I needed at the time...it started to come off more quickly.  I finally found my college weight again and made it to a standing 123-125lbs (with a short glance at 120)...I stayed stable at that weight for two years. 

Then I met Mr Man...dinners and such caused me to gain 5lbs...but that stayed that way for nearly a year, then more life hit...the creep up began, the medical procedure was done and boom...here I am now the heaviest I have been in several years.

My doc would like me to be at 120, I just want to return to 125...so sunshine and hiking please help me find the way again :)

Along with that...a stress reliever for all the new found things that have been coming up...a more peaceful way of worrying and hoping for the best.  So far so good...come on sunshine...Momma needs a new pair of shoes (hiking boots that is)

Bouncing all over the place but finally arrived here...are you there?
