Good morning and more on my challenges. Well, I struggled yesterday getting my steps in, and yes, I did it. Let me tell you that you would have thought I had them though because we did walk and walk a lot it seemed. As
We got up that morning, and we got dressed David’s mom reminded him there was a Car show at Haltom High School. We went up there and walked around.
I talked to all the vendors about joining us at Haltom High Craft Fair next week. I Pray it happens, but some of them said they would like so today I will be emailing all of them. Then I plan on going to hand out fliers I hope if everything works out the way I am planning.
When we left there and went to Luby’s to eat they had the yummiest looking Chocolate Cake which I just sailed right and didn’t take a second glance. I ended up with Fried Fish, and yes, fried which isn’t good although it was Fish and Fish is right for you. With as much walking as we did, it shouldn’t be that bad. Mashed Potatoes and Black Eyed Peas which were so yummy and a Roll.
David the “SNEAKY DOG” ended up with a Dessert but it was Fried Strawberry Cheesecake, and he doesn’t usually eat desserts, so I didn’t fuss too much about it. Especially with him walking through the events with me because we still had a couple more to attend. I figured he would walk the dessert off.
Once we left Luby’s and headed out to the NRH Center and walked around it was so much fun. Education fair is focusing on events our children can sign up for this summer. I was able to talk to a lot more vendors who may come out to Haltom Highs Craft Fair which is a huge plus.
Then we left there and went up to VW Hall by my house for another car show, and as we walked around looking at the cars, I noticed a sign that said Vendors inside. I went in and talked to a few people, and they may come out to Haltom High for the Craft Fair as well. If it is God’s will, we should be full and have the 30 Vendors Latasha wanted.
I just pray we get the shoppers we need so I would like to ask you if your close to Haltom City Please come out and check out the Craft Fair on Saturday and share the event with your friends and family as we would love having you join us. Also, share this event with everyone you know.
Then we went home and my sister called so we left to eat Chinese Food with her and I had two little pieces of Pepper Steak, a Roll, Salad and here is where I was terrible I had Rice with Butter and Sugar on it. Because I am not a “Chinese Food Fan” but David is, and he never gets it, so we went because of my sister like it so much. Since I wanted to do something beautiful for David, I went and ate my rice the way I love it. Since this isn’t something I do that much I didn’t think it would be that bad.
Then we went to my Sisters to help my Nephew move some furniture once were done there we came home. On the way David stopped and picked up a Beer for him. Now I know he shouldn’t have a Beer but he has one a week, and as hard as he works I never say anything. Only it wasn’t a Beer David got but a “MONSTER DRINK” which I hate as they put him in the hospital before and David knows it and drinks them anyway. So I didn’t say anything as it is his body and he knows what happened and if he chose to drink, then it is on his head.
Finally, we get home, and I look at my Fit bit, and I am still short on steps. After all, that is walking close to 2,000 levels so I jump on the Treadmill for 10 minutes. Then walk around the house and out in the yard then I sit down because my foot is killing me. So it is back up to walk through the house, yard and back on the Treadmill.
Finally, I hit 10,000 steps and boy was I glad as my foot was killing me and I was tired, but I did it, and I can say I made my strides. Although yesterday they almost killed me. If truth is none I almost gave up several times. Which I didn’t do, and I made it, I did it. I completed my goal.
As for water, I drank about four bottles mabey a little more. If I had carried a bottle with me everywhere we went, I would have gotten my seven bottles in, but I didn’t. I was lazy yesterday although today I will try and do better with my water intake. As well as top the steps I was able to get in yesterday.
So we are to “SUNDAY,” and we have housework, Craft Fair Work, Blog work and I am scared to death I will not get my steps in as well as my water. So as I sit here and write I am Praying that I have the strength to do both because my foot is still hurting from yesterday. Although I am not giving up, I can and will do at least 10,000 steps today.
I am tired of being as big as a house and not being able to get outside and play with Charlie the way he wants me to. Along with having trouble breathing sometimes is for the birds. I am sure it is because I am overweight and somehow I am going to lose at least 50 pounds. Even if it kills me doing it.
Be watching to see if I make it because as I sit her, I am not sure I will. I will keep trying even if I have to do it on my own because Charlie deserves a mom who can get up and do things.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
