Summer Vacations and a new schedule

More than half of the  much dreaded summer vacation has gone by and here I am not a pound lighter!! I was really dreading this long hiatus of my five year old from school thinking of how much I would have to endure with him being home all the time. But whew, thanks to a close network of friends, we have managed smoothly so far with planned playdates and weekend activities.
I have even stepped into a new routine of gymming every day while my son is out on playdates. Unfortunately the fat which sits round and comfortable on my body refuses to melt away and so far there have been no "positive" results. All my mom's love shed on me through different delicacies during my trip to India last summer has shown booming results and the "congratulations" (why do people assume a stork's visit every time you pile on..okay I do the same so fair game!!) and "you look so different" remarks just follow me everywhere. To make matter worse, a close friend posted our pictures from a decade gone by on Facebook. Ah, that set the wheels in motion afresh.

And so my sordid saga reels on......
