TWENTY FIVE

Wow...I'm actually 25. When I woke up this morning I was SO happy it was raining. It was still dark and the rain was strumming a sweet lullaby on the roof of our little house. My kids were all still sleeping because it's spring break and I was warm and comfy. 10 Years ago if I would have been up at 7:15am during spring break I would have been grumpier than a hippo with hemorrhoids. Not to mention the rain would have put a serious damper on my plans..... But This morning it was great! Does that mean I'm getting old? I think it does! My insurance rates are going to go down now. I'm officially a Grown up. Weird!!!! The hubby is going to try and get a sitter so we can go out to dinner. I'm going to make the runchkins some pork chops and potatoes and send them to Grandmas.... If she wasn’t to help out. If not we'll do something here!


Since it Is spring break, today the kids and I are going to dye some Easter eggs. The girls are waiting ... not so patiently... so I should get it done soon. The eggs are boiled and cooling. They only need to be dried off now. I also think this week we are going to make some cute little paper mache' candy bowls. It will give them something to do and The girls can measure their own supplies.... So their math doesn't get rusty. Maybe we'll give em away as Easter presents. IDK.

Anyway. I'm going to go get crafty! Wish me Luck! LOL

I lost 3 lbs!

    So I woke up this morning feeling terrible about myself. I have been for the last few days. I want to see the results of working my butt off! I also want to look MY AGE, not twice my age. I've been looking a lot at cosmetic surgery to give me back my body. The only problem is that it makes me feel even worse sometimes because there is no way that I'll be able to afford it. :c( Boooo

    I called my Mom this morning like always and talked to her for a while (ok so like 2 hours LOL), and it made me feel better. Just completely took my mind off my ewe and made feel good. So I got out my tape measure to measure myself for the week and guess what.... I lost 2 inches around my waist, 1/2 an inch around my neck, and 3 whole pounds!! WOOHOO Now I seriously feel WAY better! I have to do Burn Circut 1 today ( I skipped it yesterday, woops) and then I might do some Turbo Jam... maybe!! :c)

    Yesterday poor Dylan gave himself a black eye! I was sad and kinda funny at the same time. He was wearing my high heels ( I know....) and he laid on his back to kick them off. Before I could tell him to stop and pull them off with his hands he had flung it up in the air in the heel landed right on his cheekbone. This morning he has a blck eye. :c( my poor little man.

    I've got some chores to do while the girls are at school today. I'm hoping to get the floors cleaned so I can pull my shampooer out this week and get the spots up. We've been here for over a month and I still haven't done it. This week.... maybe! :c) My birthday is on Monday and then My sister is going to be here on the 11th. I'd like to have it done before she gets here... although I don't know if it will actually happen!

    I just can't wait for her to come down here. She may not be showing yet, but I can't wait to take a bunch of pictures of her and have our pictures taken together and talk about that little baby growing inside her tummy! :c) I miss my little sister!!! I don't know if we will do anything or not... It's kinda up to her... if she's feeling up to it we might take them to Downtown disney to walk around and look at all the sights.... but if she doesn't feel like it then maybe we'll just hang out at home and play with the munchkins. That's probably more likely!!

    Well Now I have 2 monkeys literaly climbing all over me so I should go make some lunch!

Thursday *sigh*

It's Thursday already. I can't believe it's already Thursday. There are only 11 days until I turn 25. I feel old! I know it's not really that old, but it feels that way to me. I don't think we're going to do anything special, and I don't want cake, so it will be just like any other day. I remember thinking how weird it was for grownups to not care about their birthdays when I was little.... now I understand.

Yesterday I was supposed to meet a family so that I could start babysitting for them next week. I was excited. Then he called me and said never mind. :c( She decided to be a stay at home Mom. Not that it's bad to stay home, I just wish she would work so I could stay at home! *sigh* I'll just have to wait until the next one comes along!

Classes start in May, and I'm SO ready. Last night I got the E-mail I was waiting for telling me a seat opened in the online math class that I wanted, so now I am officially registered for all of my classes. Now I have to pay for them! I've been waiting since mid-December for my transcripts to arrive so I could bring them in and receive my financial aid. They have to be unopened. After 3 looooong months of waiting and calling to complain, I finally received them. Matt opened it. *CRY* So I've mailed my requests again, two of them this time, one to me and one to the school. Hopefully this one gets here faster; I'll call again on Monday if they aren't here yet.

Monday was my first day (again) of "ChaLEAN EXTREME". I absolutely LOVE the program, but it is so hard to find a time to do it! Yesterday I missed my workout because I was too busy. Yet here I am, writing, not working out. I think we need another TV. That way I could keep the boys entertained with cartoons for 45 minutes while I get buff. Today was the first meal I ate from her food guide. It was actually delicious!! Veggie scramble! It is eggs with bell peppers, broccoli, zucchini, & parmesan cheese. I added a pinch of garlic powder too and it was AMAZING. Only 240 calories and lots of good protein! I'm having a southwest turkey burger for lunch. We'll see how it goes. I have a cardio workout scheduled for 12:30pm today. A little nervous, but I can do it! Then once the laundry is finished, I might take the boys down to the park to play.

Well the boys are snacking, I think I'll go clean up the kitchen and throw another load of laundry in! :c)
