Ups and Downs

The good: The party was great - my SIL was so surprised she even started crying - it was great because she so totally deserve it - she is so nice and kind and giving to everyone. It was about time she has her moment. The food was excellent, the cake as shown below was so good. The limo was fun and a great idea - that way we did not have to worry about drinking and driving which is never a good idea. There was so many people there and it was great to see everyone.

The bad: John cousin came up to me and said wow Jackie you look good for once. For once, what is that suppose to mean - do I look like crap the rest of the time - thanks - I think.
Then we found out that same cousin is pregnant with her 4th child - and it is a surprise pregnancy. But then the mother of the cousin sits down with John and says how wonderful it is to have a surprise pregnancy and how great it is to have children and a family. DH told me about this conversation the next day - he was clearly upset from it - I felt bad - I have to keep remembering that he is going through infertility just like me - and people's stupid comments affect him too - and the kicker is that his Aunt knows all about our infertility problems.

The shred: Today is day 15 of the shred - I am moving up to level 2 today - I am sure I will be sore tomorrow. I am really not noticing any change yet. The only think I did notice was my face did not look as fat - but other than that - not much improvement. But I am sticking with it.

Yay for a great party.

Boo for the back handed comment. Why don't people ever think before they speak? WTH is that about.

I haven't done the shred in 3 days. I started my stims last night and I'm now afraid to mess things up. I will be walking 2 times a day with the dogs and hopefully that will make a difference.

Wow, people are just low sometimes. That was really terrible on both accounts, especially the latter of the two. His heart must have been aching so much after that. {{hugs to you both}}

Yay for level 2! You are doing so well. I can't even commit to doing my stretches everyday. -.-;
