Weight Watchers Here I Come

Yes, It's true, I am on the third day of Weight Watchers. I was inspired by Nancy Zundell, a woman in my neighborhood. No offense to Nancy, but if she can loose her weight after getting as big as she did with her last pregnancy then I can do it too. Go Nancy!!! I need to post a couple of pictures on here of me pregnant so that you believe me when I say I get huge too. So, here I am almost 3 years after the birth of our last baby and it is time to do something about the weight issue. (As noted in previous posts.) I have good incentive too. Mark's dad just called on Sunday and is getting married on May 24th. That gives me just under 3 months. Wow, pressure is on.

It was the cutest thing. I was talking to one of the cheer coaches at Rachael's Cheer Gym the other day who happens to be pregnant and adorable. We were talking about pregnancy and how our husbands love us and think we are sexy even though we are huge. Her comment to me was that even though he sees this beautiful glow all she sees when she looks in the mirror is "large and in charge". How much do I relate to that. How cute she is.

Hey Becky, Let me know how it works for you. Nancy looks great, my problem is that I have no self control! I need a work out buddy so if and when you ever get to that point...give me a call!

I love your blog. You are such a great family. I'll add you to my list of blogs I check EVERYDAY! What is my problem? Don't I have my own life?
Hey, I'm doing weight watchers.com and I really enjoy it. I've lost 10 pounds since I started, but have a ways to go to hit my goal. But its fun, I definitely would rather do it online then go to meetings. My biggest issues, second helpings and snacks. Good luck with it!

Officially in the Limelight!

I had an interesting experience this evening. Without divulging more than I should, let's just say that I was told that people in my area are concerned that I have not kept my information about the stake changes private until the appropriate time. They were concerned that because I dated my blog post for the date of my writing some people thought that I had said something before the stake split announcement. Let me assure you that this isn't the case. I date my posts for the day that I write them but I didn't post them until Nov. 9th, the afternoon of the day of Stake conference. With that being said, this experience brought to my attention how much being a bishop's wife really is somewhat like being on show for everyone. Sometimes you are scrutinized and it is good, and sometimes it isn't so good.  I felt truly inspired to write and keep this blog so that people can get an idea of what a normal bishop's family is like. This however can be difficult because I ...

Pushed to the Limits Sometimes

I have been pretty overwhelmed lately. Actually it seems to be a recurring theme in my life that I am not very pleased about. I tend to wonder why it is that I get into situations where I feel overwhelmed. I question my ability to put my life in the right perspective. So, next week in particular is going to be beastly! My larger roles will include....teacher, preschool teacher, employee (24 hours next week), mother, maid, and cook. The problem is that I don't feel like I am excelling at any of them. For instance Zach. He needs me to be a great teacher, to give him my best and most undivided attention. Instead I am giving my all to stay awake and the rest goes to him and Jillian.

Battling Anxiety and Depression With Christ on my Side

I have been pondering this topic for over a week and still don't think I can express fully the depth of my thoughts.  I write of which I intimately know and battle every day, that of depression and anxiety.  These life debilitating illnesses sometimes rule my life, and sometimes I rule them.  I go through times in my life where I feel happy and content, and other times where the weight of my flaws brings me so low. Yesterday was the final straw of an emotional drain that I have felt as of late.  Any of the events in and of themselves shouldn't have been enough to put me into a tailspin and yet today it was more than I could handle.  Let me preface my day's events by saying that there are things I won't write about due to the privacy that my husband and children deserve, so most of what I write about concerns only me.  With that being said, we have been battling some big issues in our family and that has already made me feel quite frankly like I am failing...
