no I havent forgotten about my blog

believe it or not I am still trying to recover from the oral surgery. I have ended up with dry socket (just like my last wisdom tooth extraction that was on the left side) its just the bottom right that has dry socket. Any one that has gone through this knows how painful it is. I have been on pain killers since the 9th, codeine does wonders for someone who is constipated normally anyway. So yeah pooping is rough. My tooth hole hurts and I have a clove oil soaked gauze stuffed in my tooth hole. I am still on a soft food diet which sucks. I have to stay on the soft foods at the very least until the 25th when I go in to have the disgusting gauze removed. I suspect that I will continue to eat soft foods until probably the last week of March. I am hoping to get back to exercising soon. I havent gained any weight I have lost some weight which I am sure will come back when my diet gets back to normal though I will try to keep it off. Plans? I don't know right now. I just want to do something. I want to be active again because sitting on the couch is exhausting. Yeah this is kind of a complaint entry today as I am bored to tears and tired of soft food. Well I am going to go roll around in my self pity.... poor me and the stupid tooth hole.

smile ..... it could be worse I suppose.

still out with my teeth

well this week has been horrible. I had my last two wisdom teeth extracted. one was horizontal impacted. I got put under for the procedure took about 30 minutes. got home and popped the pain pills crawled into bed.. and pretty much did that for the last three days. I would have done it again today but my hubby has to go back to work sometime. right? I did go out with my hubby yesterday and got a new purse. second purse in my whole life. lol. its cute though. my other purse was dark and not very girly. that is a huge complaint of my hubbys is that I am not girly enough. I have always been sort of tom boyish. I am the girl with the brown hair and freckles. heck I am still the woman with brown hair and freckles, the one that built tire swings and ran around barefoot. is that tom boy or red neck lol I forget the difference. on the other side I hate dirt, I do not like getting dirty. 
I like to bake and paint, I like to write and research. I am a unique person in some ways. I love classical music it just sings to my soul. but on the other hand I like rock and country too. any way about other things

I want to try and do some meditating like 30 minutes a day I think it would be good for me to be at peace for 30 minutes a day and let my brain rest.
I am hoping to be back into the swing of things monday but no promises. lord knows how busy I am lately. or my excuses are just that good? who knows...

slight derail 65 days left

okay okay..... I am here... I didn't fail but I got slightly off track.
for about a week now I have been way off on my diet. I was eating way too much and way too much of it was junk food. I mean really junk food, chocolate and ice cream... Why? because I like to eat when I worry. so I have a new goal for me aside from my workouts. starting March 6 2010 I will not eat junk food, or meat (dont really like meat anyway) , white breads, sugars etc. until Mothers Days which is May 9 2010 that is 65 days away. I want to journal it everyday so I stay on track... Need to bring in my OCD dry erase board ( and yes I mean obsessive compulsive disorder lol) and monitor.  I intend to drink at least 64 oz of water a day too.
No Soda either. I want to see how my body will adjust to being healthier. Its not just for me but for my kids too. I need to be a better example for my kids so they are healthy kids that grow into healthy adults.

On Tuesday I have oral surgery so I will be somewhat out of commission for a few days.

Thank God for fresh starts.
