There is a Saturday morning class offered at the Fitness and Aquatic Center we just joined this past Friday. Not only am I gonna get this weight gone but I am going to turn this belly fat into something a bit less disgusting. It will still have all of the strech marks but I want the donut roll gone and I want to be nice and fit by the time we head to Hawaii. I am just nervous because I have a feeling this class may kick my butt!!!
Call me blonde
I know we all see the ads for mesothelioma all of the time in magazines and on T.V. but I honestly have no idea what it truly is. I believe it to be a form of cancer but that is about all I really know. Yet I look at those ads and think I have no reason to know about that because I don’t have it. Isn’t that funny that even our conception of things shade how we look at most things through out our lives? What is een funnier is that I still haven’t looked it up!
Spam Scan
Every once and while I’ll scan through my spam box to see if something ended up there by mistake. Luckily most of the junk goes there and the stuff I want goes to my inbox. However I do find it rather funny some of the subjects of the messages that go in my spam box. Like for instance I got one about “Oakland motorcycle accident lawyer” . Makes me wonder why they would send something that is a local type thing to random people because the likely hood of it going to someone that actually lives in Oakland , CA is pretty small I’m guessing. I hope I’m not the only one that gets these bizzare spam e-mails.
Ready to crash
All of this work in the bathroom sure is making me one tired lady. I am really noticing this when I look at the bags under my eyes. I hope that I can start getting some good sleep here really soon or I am going to have to look for the best eye cream out there to hide these bags. Granted this weekend we are hoping to get a big part of the bathroom done so that alone will make things a ton better. I can’t wait to get back to as normal as we can get here in our family.
February
Well we have had yet another big change in our travel plans. We are still going to Hawaii but we changed when we are going to go. We were looking at going in the Summer but the more we thought about it we thought it would be much nicer to get away from the cold winter and really enjoy the sunshine. So we are going at the middle of February. The only downfall of this is now I am really on a time crunch to get this weight off. I would really like to lose about 15 lbs and be a size 8/9 or by the time we go. So I feel like I am on a hunt for weight loss products, but of the non-chemical type. We just recently got the Wii Fitness Plus for our Fitness board and we also joined a gym. These are just a few of the things I hope will help me to reach my goal.
Friday 5: Similes
Who in your life is as blind as a bat? That would be my dear hubby LOL
Who in your life is as happy as a clam? Logan is pretty much happy all of time.
Who in your life is as mad as a wet hen? When Allie and Logan get into Maddie’s stuff this is her to a T!
Who in your life is as stubborn as a mule? Probably me ROFL
Who in your life is as quiet as a mouse? Allie is our sneaky one for sure. She is really bad at getting things she shouldn’t and we never have a clue.
Babies
I went last week to visit a good friend that I have known since 7th grade who recently had her third baby. The most amazing thing is that she had an unexpected homebirth for this baby. In my opinion it was a blessing in diquise because her coard was wrapped around her neck 3 times and if mom had gone through a long labor with lots of pushing it could have been a really bad thing for everyone.
It was so great to go visit her since she had moved almost a year ago to a new house and I had never gotten there. It was a bit of a muddy ride since a mile of it was on a very wet and soggy dirt road but well worth it. Her house is so awesome and I really love it. Logan got a kick out of the fact that there was a rackmount 8 pt (I think might be more) deer hanging in the basement. He had never seen that before and was truly amazed by the whole thing.
My friend and her baby are doing great and I am so happy that they had God watching over them the whole time. I am not sure that I would be able to handle that as well but hey we are only given what we can handle and that is why it was never given to me.
Birthday anniversaries??
Today is the 2nd anniversary of my 29th birthday. Don’t you dare try to tell me that means I’m 31 because I am not ready to say I’m in my 30′s now LOL. Joel took me down to Artprize and out for dessert at San Chez. It was a great night and even though today is gloomy and rainy it’s all good.
Monster
That is going to be Logan’s new nickname. He can be so destructive and he thinks it is so funny too. Lately I am telling him on a daily basis to leave Daddy’s speaker wires alone. They are not a toy even if they do seem fun to pull on and watch mommy run for a speaker that might fall. Poor Daddy is the one that suffers too. He has always had dreams of making our livingroom his very own home theater where he can really enjoy great sound from his speakers while watching Hockey on his HD Plasma TV. I just roll my eyes because it doesn’t matter as much to me but Logan sure is making it clear what he thinks.
Friday 5: Story
Which of your stories have you probably told the greatest number of times to the most people? The story of how I broke my foot last summer and how I pushed the bones back in that were out of joint.
What’s a story someone else often tells about you, much to your chagrin? My grandparents talk about the time when I was 2 and we were camping with them and I came to their camper with a sign around my neck saying “Please do not feed me”.
What oft-told story from a chapter in your life seems to be remembered differently by different people who were there? I really can not think of one at all….
What are some of the details, without retelling the whole story, of a story you’ve told often but never to your parents? I’ve pretty much told them all now that I have kids and I am much older.
What song would be an appropriate soundtrack to the story of your most embarrassing moment? OPPS I did it again… and only because I’m always doing something stupid and embarrassing.
