Just how many twists of fate can one person weather?
I am experiencing quite a bit of conflict. My absolute best friend on the planet, the one person not related to me by blood that I would do absolutely anything for, has had a recent cancer diagnosis and there just aren't any awesome jaw dropping easy fixes here. Frankly it is going to suck. Even when people say, "Well if he was going to have cancer you'd want it to be that!" I just don't know how to take it. I mean, legally we are not married but geesh that man is for all intents and purposes my husband. My youngest son stood us up together in my living room and took out his little notebook and had us hold hands, and then he married us in a language he maintained at the time was "Chinese," so for my heart that counts as being married. And I'm even conflicted about talking here about this, however I believe that he's talked to just about all his co-workers about it, and I think the lady he gets his car insurance from, and for sure he told the lady that waxes the hairs out of his ears. Does that seem strange? I think it may to some people? He doesn't want to gross anybody out with obnoxious ear hairs. Okay my point is, if someone out there happens to have had recent experience with prostate cancer treatments I want to hear about it. I like information.
In other news I have done SO much exercise with Leslie Sansone since May 15, I think I might wear a hole in my carpet and possibly bust on down into the lower apartment kitchen. And I have nothing to show for it. Oh except this list.

How did I do this last time? I mean I lost this same 10 lbs already and kept it off all the way through student teaching. Was it like, I lost it because I ate nothing bad, because he was in Iraq and I was not drinking beer or any of those foods we sometimes turn to for comfort? Seriously. I should get points for never ever visiting McDonalds right? And if I've gained weight, it might possibly be muscle? Ugh. But then yeah, school lunch had all those cookies. My next checkup is the 2nd of June so hopefully that will tell me something. I might change my brand of thyroid meds. I had some samples of Synthroid around the time I lost that weight and I wonder if I just metabolize that better than I do the Levoxyl?
Bleh. I really do not like the idea of going on a diet right now. I'm looking at this stuff and thinking no, I have no attention span for this. Is there something easy? The boys were talking about the kind of diet where I just drink smoothies. Then also they said they saw on TV the perfect pill that will change my life. If you want to have fun exercising, pop in an exercise DVD and work out with both a 9 and a 10 year old little boy alternatingly lying on the couch and doing the workout with you. Time flies when you're subjected to that kind of running commentary.
