It's only TUESDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a week! Yup, it's been quite a week and it's only Tuesday! Our little family has had a huge weight dropped on us, and don't really know what to do with it! I've been on my knees asking God, WHAT? Really? I can't say much yet, but know that my brother's family and my mom and dad are in dire need of prayer and support! It's just a big thing and it'll be interesting to find out what God has planned for our families! God is good and I know that there is something good to come out of this ordeal.

Okay, enough "mystery"! I'm excited about the new regimen starting tomorrow. Gonna start lifting three times a week. I've noticed that my weeks are starting to get easier and need a bump up a little, so tomorrow we will start and see how that goes. Should be interesting! :D Had a huge accomplishment today! Went for the entire time on the elliptical today, a little over 46 minutes and I got 10 miles done! I also raised the load up to 10, whoop whoop! Makes me feel good! I made myself SWEAT a lot!

I figured out why I had such a rough end to my week, it's that "fun" time in every woman's life and was a little surprised by it this morning, even though I was down in a dark place last week. Kinda makes me glad to know that that's the reason for my depression last week. I really struggle sometimes with all the business that goes along with this disorder, but this time didn't seem quite so bad. I didn't have the symptoms for 2 weeks like usual, but only for a few days, which is HUGE! I've been known to cry for days straight! My face and neck break out in huge pimples, worse than a teenage boy! :( SUCKS! My self image suffers, I don't like myself, my hair, my face, who I am, etc. My interest in housework, schoolwork, church and just being around others gets really bad. I'd rather stay in bed and watch TV and hide! I didn't struggle quite so bad this time. I still had the bloating and heaviness, but the sadness and depression wasn't quite as bad.

I started exercising because I saw that a friend had had success and I needed SOMETHING, but little did I know that it could actually help me as much as it has already! Can't wait to see what will happen as the year goes on! Going to take a shower now, got to get to Amarillo for Dunnigan's Chiropractic appointment.
