186.2, class, tired, wendys, dd, grandchildren, sister,

OK I did gain almost a pound from yesterday morning.  I knew what my over active appetite was doing to me ,  OH WELL  a pound is not going to put me back into size 3 pants again.  I fact I probably made up for it today.  I did not exercise or try to keep up with my calories , but for breakfast I ate 3 eggs scrambles using a little olive oil to keep it from sticking.  Lunch was Sprite, and honey bbq wings and small order of frys from wendys. Supper was one bbq chicken leg  and green beans and baby corn .  ANd when I got home I had some blueberries and 1/2  cup of skim milk.

The foster parent class was 6 hours long and at times it was a bit boring.  But I am glad I was there and I did learn a few things that would be expected of me as a foster parent.  It is the first step in the process of becoming foster parents and I am excited to be taking these steps.  I am excited about maybe having the chance to make a difference in a childs life.  I am a nuturer, since I had my first child 33 years ago I knew that I was a nurturer.  I knew that I wanted to parent children. 

After the class dh and I stopped by our dds house,  my son brought his children to her house yesterday so she had her son who is 5 and my sons son who is 13 and his daughter who is 8.  She had her hands full and she is not used to having a house full of children.  She seemed pretty stressed but she had cooked for her daddy and me.  I thought that was sweet.  She knew that I would be tired from the class and bless her she fixed supper for us. 

When we left she sent an avon (she sells avon) to my sister so we had to stop there to drop it off for her.  You know you just can't drop something off at my sisters house and expect to get back in the car and leave..... OH NO you have to go in and visit for a while.  I kept saying that I was tired and really wanted to go home and shower and just relax but nothing would do but we sit and talk for a while.    She meant no harm and I am sure she really did not understand how tired I really was.  I am glad that I am feeling less tired now.  When I got here I decided to take a bath. A nice long relaxing bath in my garden tub, when I am tired I love just leaning back in that nice scented warm water and just close my eyes and let everything just slide away.

Church tomorrow,  "I was glad when they said let us go to the house of the Lord."

sleep well
God bless
