So my sister said I should continue blogging, I told her no one looks at it and she said that probably more people look at it than I think. So I decided that I'll just put stuff on when I feel the desire. So here is some of the recent events of the Parry family.

Well, in the last few months I started a new job. The first of April. I'm just an on-call receptionist at a treatment center. I'm starting to catch on. But its still a little hard, everything is done in a patucular way. But its getting easier. I really like it. Time flies by because you are pretty busy with tasks...I just wish I felt confidant about my reception skills. LOL.

Here in one month We will be heading out to Indiana to get Liz, Nate, Trevor and Ryleigh from their mom for the Summer. Elizabeth and Nathan will stay for the school year and Trev and Ry will go back to their mom in August. We are hoping that their mom will let them stay but its looking like thats not going to happen.

Aiden is doing really well in Kindergarten, I'm really Impressed with his school. At the beginning of the year I couldn't get him to do anything, he would hardly try. But now he is reading and doing Math at a first grade level! He is so smart! Its amazing and one of the best things in the world to hear him read me a story.

Troy has taken up golf, we go almost every weekend. Its fun to watch and just hang out. I get to drive the cart which is the funnest part. Aiden has come a few times and he loves it. The last time we went out and he pretended that one of his toys was a video camera and he was making a golf movie. Then when the guys were taking back the carts when we were done Aiden decided to ride with our good friend Gregg, they turned sharply and Aiden wasn't holding on and he fell out of the cart getting some pretty yucky scrapes from falling in the gravel. He was a tough guy after a few tears and the stinging poroxide! He had to tell everyone about it and show off his bandages. But Troy is getting better at golf! I can tell because it doesn't take as long anymore to be done with the 9 holes, that we only have time for.

I have started a Lifestyle change, or improvement if you will. I don't like to call it a diet because people always fail when they diet. I have started doing Pilates with the rubber band thing about 5 days a week. (for some reason I can't get to it on the weekends) I usually try to step it up a notch and add in some walking a cople times a week. I have already started to see improvements in my abilities in the last 2 weeks. I can do more than I could before and I have lost 6 lbs. I just have about a million more to go! I watch more closely to the food I put in my mouth and drink water like crazy! I'm feeling optimistic and can't wait to see some real changes.
I did start taking phentramine to help give me a jumpstart, and REVVNRG helps too. (energy+appitite suppressant drink) It kinda makes me feel like I'm cheating the hard work but oh well its working.

Well this is about all I have to add today. Please post any comments. So I at least know I'm not just journaling to myself. ha ha.
