A Better Day
Posted by: Natasha in The Biggest Loser, Weight loss challenges, What's Up With Natasha Today?Today started off rocky. I had to wake up my little one and get him ready for school this morning. Man was he cranky and boy was my nerves going crazy because every time I drop him off to school he cries and have a tantrum which hurts me so much. After a few minutes of hugs in his rocking chair he finally got dress and came down for breakfast and didn’t eat a bit and started to cry about staying home and not going to school. DH and I talked to him to reassure him about school, so he finally calmed down and ate. Then we were off this morning. I got to school and he understood that mommy will be leaving to get ready for work. I sat down with him for 2 minutes before I took him outside with his teacher. He went outside then he started to cry. I felt so sad inside, but after I left he stopped within a few minutes. I am totally seeing a improvement with drop off today. Monday I stayed at school with him for 20 minutes until he calmed down and today because he crying lasted about 5 minutes instead of 25 minutes. Phew!! I hope he is doing fine now and comes home happy like he usually does when DH picks him up.
Did any of you watch the biggest loser last night. Why does that show make me cry? I guess I am emotional because T.O.M. is here, but dang. I cried when the black and red time was racing against the clock to grab their team flag and bring it back to the top of the hill. You could really tell that each person had their own struggles, but they all persevered during that challenge and that is the name of this weight loss game. I was so nice to see that the red time was down to only 4 members now and they won the challenge and to their advantage the challenge won them immunity at the weigh in. How cool. The are lucky because with the weight loss results they had at the weigh in they would have lost and would have been forced to send another member home. The blue team did not like that because if they would have know they would have joined in on the challenge, but too bad, huh? How do you all feel about his season? I still have not found one cast member that I am totally excited about yet, but you know me I will keep on watching and I sure I will find that member. It was Gerry, but he was voted off last week, so we will see.
Right now I just finished placing some Halloween decoration outside in the garden and throughout the house, so my little one will be excited to see that when he gets home from school. I just hope is costume comes this week or next week. He wants to be batman. In a bit will be doing hi/lo yoga with Sharon Mann on fitTV for 30 minutes and then I will finish cleaning around here and hit the showers and prepare for work this afternoon at 2:30 pm. I figure I will save my heavy workouts for my days that I am off from work just so I am not totally wiped out. I have to close the store tonight which means the store is open until 10:00pm. Darn! So as soon I get home I will probably be tired and go right to bed and then tomorrow I am off from work and my little is off from school. We will probably do something fun at the mall. He loves the inflatable playland there so I will take him there. Better run!
