He Speaks My Language

Shh...don't tell anyone...guess what I just did...I just took a nap with Cutie! Oh it felt so good!

Dr. Hubby came home yesterday evening with an apology and this purse from a Glamorousity "show" at Country Clippins' salon (he went in to get his hair cut). It is the perfect size and SO cute...he knows how to speak my language....heehee!

Happy Weekend!

loser.

Well...just found out I did not win queen in either category...that didn't feel too good. ouch.

Husband For Sale...Remote Included!

Yesterday my Dr. Hubby went out of his way to try to be home by 6 pm so I could attend a Longaberger party. It made me feel so good that he made such an effort. So I took a shower and got dressed...I was feeling good. Then I waited...6...6:30...7:00...7:30...he called and said he could not make it. I admit I teared up, but I understood.

He offered to bring home a movie for us to watch together...my choice. I told him "Bride Wars" and he said he would get it. It was my turn to pick the movie anyway...I sat through 2 really bad ones for him.

I get the kids in bed at 8:30...9...9:30...10:00. MIL calls and tells me about nephews play. She says Dr. Hubby is there checking FIL's foot and that he is SO excited to watch the movie with me. I tell her I am going to bed. Then she calls at 10:30 and says Dr. Hubby is on his way up the hill and he is looking forward to watching the movie with me...that he was SO sorry he didn't make it home for me to attend the party. I become suspicious of why she is doing that thing she does when she is trying to smooth something over...

10:40 Dr. Hubby comes and gives me a hug and chats for a minute...I go to sleep.

This morning Dr. Hubby mentions how he stopped to see his brother last night too...he says he was there at 9:00! I was shocked...I am heart broken. He says they made plans to horseback ride on Saturday...when was the last time he made special plans with me?

I hope it rains...pours...all day Saturday.

Pretty ironic that he did all that on the same day that I made this (the picture was taken by me on our farm)...the card I was going to give him for our 15th anniversary in July...I think I'll sell it.

Don't Make Fun Of The Skeletons In Someone else's...Car?

Last Sunday when I took the girls out to eat at Peking Buffet (my farewell to Chinese food for awhile) we got out of our car and I noticed a weird little collection hanging from a car's rearview mirror. They had skeletons in every shape, size, and color. We declared it one of the freakiest things we had seen in awhile. Well....as I am paying the bill, the kids like to get quarters and raid the "bubble" toy machine.

Cutie recieved this skeleton in her "bubble."

Scrappy says to Cutie "Ew...that is a creepy little man."
Cutie replys "I love creepy little men." and hugs it.

She carried it through Walmart like it was her new best friend!

Moral of the Story...Don't make fun of the skeletons in someone else's car...you just might take home one of your very own.

Sneaky Peeky

EXERCISE!

I plan on doing my Carmen Electra Striptease DVD workout...don't laugh...it IS as funny as you think it is! LOL!



What are you planning to do for exercise?

Food Journal

Think of what you eat in a day...Food journaling helps me when I am dieting cause I tend to "graze." If I have to write it down then I am less likely to pop it in my mouth. Here is what I had yesterday...



Breakfast: 1 1/2 sausage egg biscuits from Mcdonalds and a large sweet tea



Lunch: 10 boneless buffalo wings from KFC and a large sweet tea from McDonalds



Snack: Can of Coke



Dinner: 2 Honey mustard snack wraps and a large sweet tea

Snack: Grandma's Fudge Chocolate Chip cookie and a coke

(Someone revive Mechelle...she just passed out!)LOL! I am a bad girl.
Now this is not a typical day because I was on the road ALOT yesterday...but I tend to eat out ALOT (not every meal of the day like today though) and I don't go for the healthiest of menu items.

What did you have to eat yesterday?

Each week you will have a chance to share a day of food journaling...this will give us ideas of new things to try instead of the "same old thing."

A Little Dirt Never Hurt (Unless You Are Brand New Clothes)

At the end of last summer I wished I had taken a before picture of the little one's play clothes...

So I did this yesterday....these are the first 4 outfits I bought at Walmart.

The kids began the testing yesterday afternoon...they ran, they jumped, they hung upside down...

this is what Cutie's toes looked like after a couple hours with Grandma. At one point she was outside the schoolhouse completely naked playing with the water hose. I really hope she doesn't become a nudist when she grows up!

This is Cutie's outfit at the end of the day. Talented?!

Here's a sneak peek...this is the layout I did for the Font/Title Challenge Tie Breaker. We had to do a vertical title with visible journaling. I loved working with this paper...the colors are so fun! Now I have to get to work on the Scraplift Challenge Tie Breaker!

DON"T FORGET>>>TOMORROW IS OUR FIRST WEIGHT LOSS WEDNESDAY!

A Letter To My Fat (Part 2)

Dear Fat,
Well I bet you just loved the first letter I wrote to you. You want me to be depressed and low...so I will feed you. Well...I've had enough. I am coming for you. Pound by pound I will release the hold you have upon me. It will be a long journey and I am not sure just how much of you there is...but I will do it. Stop laughing...I know I have tried many times and failed...this time I will do it. I won't be strong every day...but I will win. I will be healthy. I will feel better. I will be a role model for my daughters. I have a plan...I attack on Wednesday.
Scrappy

**Don't forget! First weigh in will be Wednesday! Prepare yourself! We can do this!**
