The last few months have been hard. I am seriously sleep-deprived and I have been trying to do the best I can taking care of my two small children while my husband is away from town... needless to say, losing weight has become at the bottom of my list of priorities at the time. 

I haven't had much time to exercise, unless you count chasing my kids around the house, the countless trips up and down the stairs to my apartment and my small walks when I take my breaks at lunch, although better than nothing, they surely are not enough to tip the scales in my favor. 

I did manage a trip to the State's Farmer's Market Monday and was able to acquire the most delicious peaches I have ever eaten. I have already ate almost all of the ones I purchased and will certainly be returning soon to purchase more. 

I also plan to take my normal stroll to the Downtown Raleigh Farmer's Market, who knows what delicious treasures I may find while I am there. 

But as for now, I am doing my best to watch what I eat but things have not being going as well as I had originally planned but that is the story of life, things happen and you have to be able to run with it. 

I hope that all the readers out there are doing well and please feel free to leave your comments below. Happy reading.
