Lighter and Lighter

I'm 13 pounds lighter today. I have a confession though -- I absolutely hate that spinning cycle. You burn calories faster than the treadmill, but it hurts my tush and wears me out. I'm committed to using it, but I don't have to like it!

Thank you Jesus for the weight loss (slow moving as it is) and for the stamina to keep at it.

Jacob is finally eating a little better. I'm very proud of him so far he's taking very good care of his braces and brushing after meals. Yesterday he said, "I have to get in line after lunch at school for the bathroom sink. There are five of us cleaning braces!" At least they are actually cleaning them!

Unfortunately, Jacob and his brother are still on the outs. I have spoken to Zachary and I truly believe that he has lost his mind or at least the rational part of it. Someone came to me yesterday and told me that if he doesn't stop calling Candace at work they are going to fire her. This would be the second job she's lost because of phone issues.

Lord, I plead with you to intervene in this relationship. I pray for your protection to surround my son. I pray for mercy on his behalf.

Congrats! on your continued weight loss! You are doing so well... spinning cycle and all! I hope to get as inspired soon. Sorry things are no better with your son. God can work all these things out... just try to put your trust in Him. (easier said than done, I know) Happy to hear your other son is doing so well with his braces. I remember those days well!
