whats new!

Hey everyone!

Well first off I would like to thank you for all the support, I am truly blessed to have so many amazing friends who help me!  If I was winning an Oscar they would kick me off the stage before I have enough time to Thank everyone! Which could be a great idea to blog about, once a week I could thank a different person..hmm might consider that!  Totally Random order though so know one gets their feelings hurt.

Well dieting has been kind of on the back burner...I still try and watch and think before I put anything in my mouth, but its more of just portion control right now because things are so busy that I can barley find the time to think.  I need to work on managing everything or not taking on too much.  But all the activities and things in my life is what keeps me busy and not thinking about the bad things.. Which keeps me happy and focused, when I have a goal I am not depressed.

I would really like to pat my self on the back this week though.. It was a very stressful week for me and I vented, cried, prayed...didn't really get the meditation thing down yet.. but tried to share my feelings with my husband a little bit more..he could use some help on listening though but I love him.. Through all of that I did not stress eat. 

I guess the stress I am going through right now is with Hayleigh's sperm donor --well that's what I call him because he has never met her nor wanted to be in her life.  So the opportunity I was giving him should of made him feel like he was winning the lottery but instead he wanted to make me miserable... I really don't understand it. I was trying to get him to finishing signing over all the rights to her, so my husband could adopt her...but he keeps promising to call me so we can work it all out but he doesn't. I don't understand why he wouldn't be jumping for joy, this is what he has wanted forever.  Its what we all want, however, I am really stressed about the money part of it.  It is really expensive even if he willingly signs the papers, which I am starting to realize it might be more like pulling teeth.  I normally don't carry my phone every where but I have for the last three days just praying that he would call or text or something and work it out.  So I am really at a lost on what to do, not only about him but the money because preschool is more important than a piece of paper.  She knows who her daddy is and thats my husband but at the same time the paper gives me peace of mind and a less stressful life but we can only pay for one or the other.

The Pastor talked about not being quick to anger this week, I have been working on that.. I don't do it often but sometimes little things really tend to bother me and I am not angry just upset but I tend to over share my emotion too much and can make you think I was mad.  So this week I am focusing on not letting the little stuff bother me, which I think will really help with the stress level!

Well until next time,
Ashleigh
