the farmer takes the cheese

yikes! it feels like it's been a LONG time since i've written.  it has been a...well, shall we say, a week.  ava has not napped well since last friday - that's not good.  her normally happy and easy temperament is transformed into this needy, screeching, unhappy thing that i don't enjoy nearly as much.  it's impossible to do anything aside from attempt to keep the screeches inside.  mostly, it isn't too bad, but tuesday was hideous - NOTHING i did was right, and so, the computer has been sadly neglected as i try to entertain my small pink baby and keep my house looking slightly respectable.  (oh, yeah, and then there is ted, barney, marshall, robin, and lily - curt and i have been watching the first and second seasons - we're on the third season now - how can i blog when i must find out what awesome-ness the whole how i met your momma gang is up to?  legendary!)

i feel that i have to share some wonderfulness!  i know that i haven't written about my journey on the diet-front for awhile...to be honest, it's not going nearly as quickly as i wish it would.  that said, any movement down is movement in the right direction, right?  and down i've been going - i've lost over 10 pounds - well, 11 but, still.  i wish i could say i was down like 15 or 20 pounds already but, slow and steady wins the race, and i'm still plodding along.  anyway, there IS some wonderfulness - as you know, on friday i worked a morning (my first) and this wednesday i worked an afternoon.  no, don't worry, that is certainly NOT the wonderfulness.  guess what i wore?  well, yes, i wore clothes...clothes are important to me...but guess what kind of clothes?  BEFORE PREGNANCY CLOTHES!!!!!  i wore pants that i hadn't worn in almost 2 years (1 and a half years to be precise).  that, my friends, is VICTORY.  small, perhaps, but victory nonetheless.
