seems like the days stay busy... got the bedroom completely cleaned today.. and the girls too. did bathrooms as well.. went for a bike ride too.

eileen brought me ocean blue.. SHE LOVES ME! it was so good.. i enjoyed it muchly!
stayed up late last night.. feeling today and NOW.. :( i'm gonna read and probably head off to bed.
poor raegan fell in the hallway today. not sure what damage she did to her teeth and/or gums. time will tell.. then she fell twice on the bike ride. skinned her knee pretty bad. then she fell off the play house. i swear she has not had LUCK today! poor thing. she even took a nap earlier.

wish i had fancy stuff to post about... maybe i should take pics of some of my yummy food.. or my beautiful self...

transplanted the corn plants today, DETAILED the car, spread weed & feed on the lawn.. then WE fixed the tire on my bike.. YAY! i can ride again.. put the door knob on the door for the chicken coop, released lady bugs. and i think that's it! don't recall sitting too much today.. which is unusual.

still doing the liver cleanse.. that's gonna be goal this week. i never DIED from it... haha, and i'm assuming its doing something... cz i cant tell.
i'm enjoying feeling somewhat 'thinner'. a couple of people say they notice, but i'm not sure.
here's to another week... its MONDAY!

another week down.. and I'M WISHING I WASNT DOING ANYTHING.... i've reached the point where i want to go 'back' to my own self.. LAZY, LAZY, LAZY! boo for me..

had eggs on 1/2 bagel.. white to be in fact.. and that was strange!! had a salad for lunch, then the shake. had eggs again for dinner w/ toast (homemade bread) that was yummy AND satisfying.

mowed the front yard.. walked 25 w/ mom.. and pegged brendon home.. :D

i'm exhausted... nothing else to say!! boo

walked the big DOG this morning.. and glad i did! was gone from 10-3:30. went straight to doing other things.. and just now finished... its 8. no wonder i'm tired. took sweet point today, and i'm kinda bummed. i didn't need it, but just chose to do it. i knew i couldn't have fast food, but when everyone else had it, i took a shake instead. i drank the whole thing (and felt it later) and wish i didnt. i WASN'T that hungry.. i WASN'T forced to have it.. it WASN'T my only choice.

maybe one day i can still learn from my mistakes. its time to step up my game. springs breaks over and maybe some routine will settle me down.

journaled on paper last night.. thats usually why i skip days.. i write (or type) where its handy.
its friday, and i'm just lost! its been spring break so i have no clue what day it is!
went to lunch w/ jania and kids.. then to kiwanis park to play. dropping kids off at moms tonight to sleep and going to a movie w/ jania and dave.

drinking shake now.. .but HAVE to figure out exercise before dinner and movie. 3 kids and no kevin... not to mention tile ONLY, so laying down workouts aren't really an option... can someone just exercise FOR ME??? :D kinda wishing i had a trailer for the bike so i could take raegan. but i know kiersten would think she's invited.. and shes not.. TOO HEAVY!!!!

today was a good day! managed to get all the things in that needed to be done, and NOT at the last minute. did 35 min of kenpo.. before being INTERRUPTED by Raegan who decided to balance then fall... coming to a crashing fall! what a dork. so after dinner we went for a walk and i pulled kids in the ol' wagon.

foil dinner tonight W/ sweet potatoes.. oh and some rolls.. oopsies!! that was calories i didn't need!! salad for lunch, and my shake later, cakes & eggs for breakfast.

made it today w/ out using points again. thinking of using ff/soda point tomorrow while i'm off traveling.. but maybe i wont need to. we shall see!

i'm a little sad right now... ONLY bcz the girls got their ears pierced.. i cant believe my baby did it too!! :( i keep trying to keep her small... but that was a huge step for big girl days!! boooo

spent the day w/ Niss. had corn black bean salsa for lunch w/ her homemade chips. used some of that for dinner too w/ some meat for tacos. pretty tastey!! :D

walked w/ k-dawg tonight w/ leuscher. i was gonna take a point, cz it was late, but he loves me and was very kind to go with me. hopefully i can do exercise BEFORE its too late tomorrow.

MONDAY, MONDAY

goal for the week is NO dishes in the sink. and that does NOT mean i have to clean the whole kitchen.. (just making that clear)

cleaned out the car for my extra point! woohoo.. not sure how i'm gonna spend it yet. i'm thinking ff/soda.. cz we're planning on going to movies w/ jania and dave. after ice cream on saturday, i decided it was fun and we should do it again. :D

still read to kids before bed.. rae fell asleep while i was reading. its so sweet when that happens. the other 2 were tired as well.. kiersten just kept smiling. i think she was in a daze.

OH.. we ate a strawberry today out of the garden. it was FREAKIN' DELICIOUS!!

had erleens shake for breakfast this morning.. forgot how good it actually was.. haha enjoyed subway for lunch w/ mom and the girls! then had some fresh strawberries... SOOOO good!
gonna have pizza tonight. veggie of course, cz thats allowed. kids will have pepperoni.

planning on doing pilates for exercise today. oh joy! there has got to be a WAY to not be fat.. ugh!

wish i was taking a nap right now. just sounds good. i'm not necessarily tired per say, just the weathers perfect and the blankets look comfy.

well SNAP! i took a sweet point today! had sugar cookies (AND MAY I EMPHASIZE THE PLURAL) today w/ the scouts... i feel so full and bleh! why do i do that? say i dont want it, yet its there and as soon as my foots in the 'door' i cant help myself! WHAT A NERD.

watched anissa's babes today.. oh how i LOVED to hold a baby again. and to have her fall asleep on my shoulder.. sniff sniff.. we snuggled under a blanket on the couch. (dont tell anissa, but i kissed her a few times... ) walker was perfect and played the whole time. he just kept saying, 'i'm not going home yet.'

rode the bike for 20, then a little more, then walked a little. and might i add that holding rylie was NUTS w/ my sore kenpo arms.. ugh!

i hate the sweet point and wish i never used it or made it a part of my life. :( i'll stick w/ agave and the treats i make with it. :-)

anyone? anyone? where are all my commenter's... okay, so i only have ONE. boo :(

had cereal for breakfast today... i notice that i get MORE hungry, by the time its lunch time, but not necessarily sooner. just saying that out loud. had bean salad for lunch. shake of course, and then erleens soup and corn bread for dinner. at least my mom was smart enough to buy low fat mix. haha

opted NOT to ride the bike today.. a tad too WINDY!! did kenpo instead. i used to love doing that w/ kev on saturdays.. it was our thang!

somehow i got a burst of energy after dinner and cleaned the whole kitchen. i wanted to just do dishes, but ended up doing counters and everything. and i'm pretty sure that if i didnt have to get kids down, i would have done the whole house.. it was nuts.

Monday... OVER

survived it.. with no points used. (unless i change my mind.. haha)
gonna read to the kids still.. that's goal this week. well, actually.. just additional reading is the goal. since i wanted scripture to be goal.. that wouldn't really work. so scripture is scripture and additional reading is the goal goal.

i've lost a total of 8 lbs so far. :D guess i'm kinda happy.. =)

i HATE SUNDAYS!! going to both parents on sunday night, and trying to get 3 kids to bed immediately after----DOES NOT happen.

i made homemade chocolate ice cream today (agave style). it was good!! tasted like a frosty from wendys.. soft serve ish.

had my shake for breakfast, and then erleens soup for lunch. had almonds later, cz i was soooo hungry. had stacked enchiladas for dinner, then my ice cream after! :D

heres to yet ANOTHER WEEK!

saturday has come and gone!! and what the HECK did i accomplish??
. a baptism/party
. prepared the veggies for the said party
. showering (with the works)
. mowed lawn AND edged it
. planted new things in the garden (including flowers)
. planted MORE strawberry plants
. got groceries
. ate dinner at subway w/ the family
NO WONDER I'M READY FOR BED!

i did take a sweet point today. i forget since i already had taken one that i can more the other days!! haha !! so i was figuring out what to take where.. yesterday i took journal point.

i love kevin, brendon, kiersten, and raegan!! they all make me smile!!
(and so does my best friend dave)

what started as a crappy (sleeping) night.. and horrible morning.. turned out to be not so bad.
once i got my shake in, i was happy!!! then went for a bike ride, which made me EVEN happier. i rode pueblo to 24th street, then down to elliot and back. my bum gives up before the rest of me does. =)

had ham/egg rolls for breakfast. then ranch beans/ w light sour cream and multi grain crackers. (dont ask... pissy mood) THEN OF COURSE---i got my shake. went to BRENDON'S game, again. and i had like 2 pretzels--and as i picked up the 3rd one.. i saw a slightly large person and put it down. i realized that even tho it was only 'pretzels' and it was only 1 or 2, it wasnt gonna help me be where i wanna be.

heres to another weekend ahead... where does the time go!!??

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! (to me...) :D

kevin took me to lunch w/ the girls. we went to flancers. i had a veggie sandwich (cukes, tomatoes, avocados, spinach, roasted bell peppers, chz and a chile mayo or something.) didnt really taste that part of the sandwich.. but the rest was delicious. i took the chz off, cz thats gross! i enjoyed a root beer and fries too. but i'm over it now. i just want water, i'm thirsty.

later we'll go get ice cream w/ the kids---or the like.

rode the bike to mesa drive and back--then over to lindsay and back. 40 mins. it was fun, but i want to go more still.

that DARN cake is gone finally.. phewww... note to self--dont make it when you're the only one that eats it!

oh how i look forward to having my shake. it makes me feel better and gets me through the day. i just wish it motivated me to exercise.. cause i'm not FEELING it today.. :(

i get sweets tomorrow (for free) cause its my birthday.. and i cant believe i don't have anything in mind to enjoy or 'want'. oh well... guess that's good!! gonna make foil dinners tonight. we have primary softball, again, so that can cook while we're gone! how perfect am i??!!

maybe i'm just tired today! i didn't go to bed early with the kids..i stayed up talking to anissa... GOSH!

day went good.. til now! all of a sudden everything is fallen apart!!! i'm tired.. and i've knocked over or spilt at least 10 things.. so maddening!!! ugh.

rode the bike to alma school and back. that was fun (besides traffic sometimes). i'm really ready to go farther and longer.. ALOT FARTHER. time to step it up. :D

i dont even want to write anymore--- so i want. i still havent showered or finished the laundry. and i gotta get kids ready for bed. AND I'M THIRSTY. (but who asked.. right??)
