MinnesotanMommy's Journal

Man, my weight is FINALLY moving after MONTHS of doing nothing. And it feels GOOD!!! My treadmill walks are paying off. Not binging is paying off! Its hard though. Well, I temporarily have a new coffee pot. Well, my friend had one that leaks some, but it'll do for today and then this afternoon I'll go buy a new one. But for now, at least I have a coffee pot! I was dragging bad yesterday cuz I had no coffee! Today my home health aide comes in to help me clean (more like help me motivate to clean!) and then I have to go to the bank and get my check in there and then over to Walmart to get my new coffee pot and a few other odds and ends. Other then that, not much is going on. We had the meeting for Ethan's test reivew and found out he'd between a kindergarten and first grade academic level and he's developmentally around age 5, so he's about a year behind his age group, which isn't too terrible. Now I can understand a little more of his actions though. I'm going to get in touch with my parenting educator and get a little more education on what a 5 year behavior looks like. I mean, I just want a little refresher so I can work with Ethan a bit more and get an idea on how to help him more. Anyhow, that's what I know! I'm off to get a cup of coffee! Oh how I love my coffee. Haha.
