Developments In The Life Of Jessie, Live @ 4:00pm

It's been almost 2 weeks and I'm pleased to report my life has been drama free. No jealous, insecure stankmouth lurking in the shadows trying to cause bumps in the road of my travels. I know the smartest thing to do would be to proceed with caution but this time only comes around once or twice a year so I'm going to enjoy every second of it. On to more important matters..... I just had the greatest weekend ever. We had all of the kids here. Chris's 3 from previous relationships (well one relationship and one brief encounter) and my beautiful 3. Between the heart to hearts, the family game night, the dinners together, and the bonding between siblings I couldn't have asked for a better weekend. I really enjoyed watching them play together and building the relationships that will last a lifetime. Thank you God for all the blessings you've brought into my life. With the arrival of my 3 blessings also came about 40 extra pounds so as of four days ago I began a 1,500 calorie diet regimen with a daily exercise routine of no less than 20 minutes a day. I'm keeping a food journal containing every bite and drink that enters my mouth and add up the totals before bed to insure I'm aware of my nutrition intake and that I haven't exceeded the recommended amounts. I've never got this technical on the whole diet thing so we'll see how it goes from here. My sweet Alyssa goes tomorrow for an E.E.G. brain scan. The purpose is to look for new damage caused by seizure activity. If there are no new developments then the next step will be weaning her off the phenobarbital medication. I know things will go fine but it's always a little unnerving when they administer these sort of tests.  Well it's snack time and motherly duties call. Spongebob babysat while I got in a little writing and for that I thank him :) Have a great and safe Labor Day to all!!
