I forgot to post this yesterday but I wanted to wish you all a Happy Halloween. Here’s a Halloween cartoon I found on the web that I thought would be appropriate to share on this blog. LOL!

Yes…I’m at it again with another site to my network. I started this one in the middle of October. I’m adding new content regularly too. What kind of website is it? It’s a children & parent friendly website that has great findings for both. Check it out. You’ll find lots of links to freebies too!!

LittleFindings.com

If you would like to exchange links with that site, let me know by leaving a comment. Thanks!

In memory of 9/11

I’m very disappointed with myself. These past few weeks, I didn’t exercise or eat healthy. I don’t know what overcame me. I think my emotions are to blame, especially since I always seek out comfort food. It really was a disappoint. I even saw my weight going back up into the 290’s again. I freaked out and said enough Tina…ENOUGH!

So I weighed myself today and I’m back up to 288.5lbs. That’s 5.5lbs more than what I weighed at the beginning of August. I’m not happy at all. I’m trying to focus but it’s very hard especially if you don’t have support from your family or a friend who is going through the same thing.

I know that if I lived alone in my own apartment, I would be working it off without a problem. I’d be buying the groceries myself, making sure I stick to my workout routine, and watching what I eat. It’s difficult to do this when a.) your parents do the groceries in the house, b.) you can’t workout without someone commenting or putting you down, and c.) I can’t cook since my mom forbids me from touching her stove. And above all, it’s not like I can move out because I can’t afford it due to all my income going to my education bills. *sigh*

Too bad there’s no “easy way” to losing weight and keeping it off. Man, wouldn’t it be amazing if you could just snap your fingers and be the right weight for your body type and age. *day dreams*

Some downtime…

Well, I haven’t got my cable internet setup yet which is driving me insane. My current provider will be done and over with this Friday August 3rd. So I’m not sure if I’ll have internet connection at all during that day. This completely sucks since I haven’t gotten a call back from the cable company even though we called a few times.

What happened was that I made a web order, received a phone call, and set up an appointment on July 21. The guy came to hook up the internet but ran into a problem since there was no cable connection coming in our house. The problem was that about 8 years ago we had a power surge because of the construction of building a house beside ours. Somehow they cut power and cable lines. At the time we didn’t know the cable lines were messed up since we had satellite tv.

So then the guy said that he had to put in a report and his manager would call the following Monday. Nobody called…so we called customer service. They said someone was suppose to call and put in another report. Nobody has called at all and I need the cable lines fixed outside in order to get cable internet inside. *what a headache*

Anyways, since the problem hasn’t been resolved yet, I won’t be able to update my websites at all. So consider this the last update until I get the cable internet working in my house. I’m putting up the twitter updates on my other blog just to keep you all informed on what on earth is happening. If you want to read all my tweets, you can check out my twitter page. Bye for now.
