Getting ready to kick some a$$!!!

I am ready to put myself back on project status and get back to my daily gym routine. I can't wait!! I will get there EVERY DAY this week. ALL 6 DAYS. Tomorrow is Cardio and UBWO. I have an appointment with myself at 8:30 am to get it done. Looking forward to dropping a few lbs of sludge this week with my clean eating. I'm happy that I will be feeling better by thursday and not feeling lke a whale anymore (notice I said "feeling" not looking....it'll be a while longer till I can improve the visual) Right now I am going to eat to perform in my workouts. Looking forward to the road back. :D

I just have to add this:

I'm sitting here at the computer just now and Cade comes in to give me a hug goodnight and then says "mom, you smell like crap!" UM YEAH mabye because I just had to clean my 5 YEAR OLDS crappy underwear 2 different times in less than half and hour!!! I guess in the midst of my overzealous underwear scrubbing (I gave up on the one pair and tossed it) some POO WATER may have splashed up onto me. NICE. Not diahrrea, just more like too lazy to get to the pot. Boy did I yell. I smoothed it over later (with a lecture) but I was MAD. My poo cleaning days are few and far between and my patience for it is pretty much non existent at this point. BOYS!!! I SWEAR!!!

I finally got a blogging minute

The only reason I did was because my 8:30 pm hair client cancelled, she wasn't feeling good. Thats good because I'm exhausted!! Its only thursday night and I'm already dreading the weekend. I am babysitting my 15 month old nephew from now till saturday afternoon. Luckily he's a bit older this time and its a lot easier. He went down to sleep great tonight WHEW! Then my 4 yo niece is spending the night tomorrow as well. That ought to be interesting. Plus I'm babysitting the girls tomorrow (but they will leave before my niece gets here) HOWEVER I do get to meetup with Dana, Deedee and Jim this weekend, so that will be a little break, even though I'll have the baby with me, he's good. Then off to Katie's wedding dress fitting, hand off the baby and then Cade's football game. Enough already!!

I really wish I could just include the girls I babysit in on my gym membership and take them too, (or even have their mom pay the 10 bucks a month) but the issue with that is the older one having Cystic Fibrosis she needs to be kept away from places like that with a zillion kids in close quarters, she needs to be really careful not catch anything. So that won't work. I usually only have them 2 half days, but you know how it goes, things come up and they need me other times too. Once I get through this weekend I am so excited to get serious on monday. I'm eating better already (if by better you mean not stuffing my face full)but I have gotten so FAT! Its horrible!! I'm getting this fat all back off, I can't stand it. At least my fat tolerance has lowered, now to be a size 10 is enough to make me freak out where before I was trying to get down to that. Now to me a 6 is comfort zone. Not that a size is the magic number or anything, but ya know what I mean. I want my cute body back!!!

Getting to the gym before monday is not going to happen. Mark is working graves tonight friday and saturday night, and I'll have extra kids the whole weekend. I'm going to concentrate on eating to prepare for mondays workout, get all the soda out of my system and hopefully some of the other crud so I don't die when my heartrate rises. I'l probably be sweating out Diet Coke instead of sweat. Sick. I need a milestone to work towards, I'm still thinking my July road trip to Missouri will be a good one. I can still make progress by then. I've even thought of joining weight watchers just for something different to do. I don't know, I can't decide. I'm so lost about it all, which is unusual for me. :D

OK time to go watch my DVR'ed shows after I peek in on you all. I might even have time to comment on a couple, woo hoooo!! :D

Why does it have to have a title??

I never think of good titles. But hey say hi to my friends Maddy and Jill who I just found out are bloggers and here we have been neighbors,friends and gone to church together for over 2 years. Wierd, huh?

Lazy Sunday today, I have gotten nothing accomplished but that is a good thing today, I love it. Mark is working today. He keeps telling people he's "Doing the ironman". So they act all impressed but then he has to add that he's "working at it directing traffic" Har har har what a comedian.

I had such a fun time on Saturday. I got to sleep in a little. Well actually I thought I was sleeping in but then after I got up (at what I thought was 9) I went out to the kitchen and realized that my clock was wrong and it was only 8. Oh well, my body was feeling as if it had been 9, how tricky! Then I got to go wedding dress shopping with my sister Katie who is getting married in June (I feel old now). She was 5 when I got married. Eeek. I was a little worried when they picked me up to go that she had no colors picked, no theme, no idea what kind of dress she liked....she basically had a ring, a guy, and my moms credit card. LOL So mom, sis Emily and Katie and I head out to Davids bridal to do some damage. Between the hours of 10 am and 4 pm we picked colors/flowers (raspberry pinks and green hydrangea silks for the big arrangements) Tons of Tulle to tie the chairs, and THE dress.(all on sale, no less!) On the way home they found the flower girl dresses, bridesmaid dresses and Kamerons ring. Also all on sale. Pretty productive, I must say. Her dress is very gorgeous. I started crying when I saw her in it. *sigh*

Things turned bad though after I got home,I did an updo for prom then I drove out with the 3 little boys to go to Cades second football game. It was at Kiwanis park (which I am not very familiar with) and I could NOT FIND THEM!! Marks mom and I drove around for about half an hour and could not find them anywhere, I was so tired from this crazy past couple weeks just and this was the last thing to do in a loooong series of events the last few weeks, I got so extremely beyond FRUSTRATED!!! The other mom that I knew out at the game's phone was off, Mark was wrapped up in coaching, he never even heard me call (nor did I expect him to) so there was no other way to find them. I got a map of the park, coudn't find it. I sorta held it together, I did not cry and I just said screw it and went home. No sense wasting my gas, but it killed me to miss my Cader boys' football game. Of course he had played great and got a sack and our team did great even though we lost. Everyone had a blast and I missed it!! GRRR! I apologised profusely and heard all about it at least. It really sucked to miss out.

Backtrack to friday night...Party went really great! Its amazing how simple you try to make things, its still SO much work. I couldn't really even concentrate on it until a couple days before becauses of all of the Easter/Funeral/Family in town going on, but I had lots of help and tried to delegate as much as I could. Its funny when you do that (delegating) you still have to cover your bases because stuff comes up and people can't always follow through. So you still end up doing a lot. I really had a lot of help, and I really did not cook one thing, pretty good considering it was food for 40 people at 6 different locations and only 1 thing from an actual restaurant. We all had a great time!! I was so thrilled with all the people that came out to support it, it was great. I have to admit that over the years I am getting the "anal-retentative-ness" beat out of me and I can let so much stuff just go thats not important. Hopefully nobody noticed that I had an outlet cover missing from my main family room wall, and I have NO flowers in the front of my house.I think there were some grass clippings on my sidewalk in front of the door, too. It sucks having hte lamest house on the block. LOL 5 years ago these things would have sent me over the edge for a party of this type, but I guess I'm getting more mature. Or tired. Anyway, We went to Maddy and Dustins' to play games after, I haven't seen Mark and some of the other guys laugh so hard in a looong time. It was hysterical! We need to start doing game night WAY more often with our neighbors. It was a riot.

OK time to go console Cooper, on the floor next to me having a meltdown because I won't let him get the halloween masks out. I'm such a meanie LOL
