Year 3, Day 147

Mark let me sleep in this morning for a little bit. I got up and joined him and my Dad in drinking coffee and Mom soon got up and joined too. I made Mark his lunch and got him out the door. Mom, Dad and I visited and things went pretty good. Mike called me around 7:15 from the road and asked me if I had killed anyone yet. We talked in code for a few minutes and then he told me that he would call me from the road in the afternoon, then we had a regular conversation and hung up.

Mom, Dad and I sat around the breakfast table talking and drinking coffee and having bagels for breakfast. Dad started getting antsy about getting to the airport and getting ready. Mom went and took her shower and it gave me an opportunity to talk to my Dad. I wanted to tell him how much I hated what Mom did yesterday in our confrontation in front of Meredith and Melanie. I was happy that he agreed with me that she was out of line. My Dad knew better to try and discussion the topic further. He handled it like Mom should have! He said that he hoped that the counseling helped and he knew that I needed to talk to her about it all.

Dad went and got in the shower and I went and got dressed. I needed to wash my hair so I decided that I would shower when I got home from taking the to the airport. I still was so tense from the happenings of yesterday I couldn't wait to get them to the airport so that I could just be by myself. I wanted to talk to Mike and I wanted to talk to Anna. I hated the way I felt.

Mom and Dad finally got ready and Dad loaded their things into my truck and we headed to the airport. I flew. I bet I drove 75 miles a hour on the toll road. It was amazing that I didn't get a ticket but there were alot of people flying with me. LOL! I got them to the airport and they gave me a kiss good-bye and Dad got their luggage out of the back of the truck and I took off. FREEDOM!!! That is how I felt! Once I got home I grabbed some lunch and went into the media room and crashed. My feet were still killing me from doing so much Sunday and Monday. I hate this. I really have to watch how much I am on my feet. If my freakin weight would start moving again maybe, just maybe it would get better!

I slept most of the afternoon until the boys started screaming for dinner. I got up and fixed their food and Mark called and said that he was going to have to work a little over. I was o.k. with that cause I was planning to heat up left-over lasagna and make us a salad and call it dinner. I love that recipe and I promise to get it up on the site. It is so easy and so delicious!

I almost forgot! Mike did call and wake me up and we talked about what happened yesterday. He listened to everything that I had to say and he agreed that it shouldn't have happened. He told me that he was really proud of the fact that I stayed in control of my points and didn't go over. I was pretty amazed too. I told him that I was feeling kick-back from it all and that I was having to fight the urge to eat but that I kept telling myself that "they are not worth it!" He told me to keep telling myself that.

Mark got home and we had lasagna and watched LOST and then we watched The Biggest Loser that we DVR'd. I love that show. I also love LOST and I can't believe that in a few weeks it will be all over with. OMG! I think this is the best TV series that has ever been on TV. I can't wait for them to release the entire series on Blue-ray! We will own it. I don't care what the cost is.

We both hit the hay after The Biggest Loser. I'm still tired!
