D170..."But my lips hurt real bad"

So many good quotes from this movie coming your way.  Today was a good day.  First of all it rained and it rained a lot.  I did water the lawn this morning because you never know.  The temperature was nice all day and only turned the swampy on for like a half hour.  I actually got a little cold outside after Adam's cousins doTERRA party this evening.  I love it.  Fall is coming soon.  I hate to think the temps will go back up to the low 90's next week.  I was naughty tonight and had a small frosty from Wendy's and a string cheese for my snack.  We're watching Tangled again.  My boys love this show.  I have to admit, it's one of my favs.  Ah, the nice cool breeze coming through the window it amazing.

Other than the rain and the cooler temps nothing exciting happened today. No hawk came for a visit, the boys were a little naughty, Adam's been working since he came home, and Ariel has been doing her own thing.  But it's past time to read so here we go.  Night all!!

D169...Enjoying the beautiful evening.

And after a crappy day it couldn't be better....well it could rain. hehe!!  It looks like the mountains are getting some.  So today I asked my mom if she would be so kind as too teach me to play the piano....again.  This will be attempt 93 I think.  I stopped counting.  But she said yes.  I need to keep my hands and brain active some how.  I did weigh in today but regretted it. I need to just say no on the last week of the month.  That's when I hate being a women.  Anywho, Siko and I both had tummy issues and I wasn't sure if mine would let me run but it was okay till I got done.  Although I had and still have a headache.  Boo!!  I need to catch up my logs.  Boy I'm terrible these days.  Everything is just habit now so I forget to right it down. haha!!  So DK hasn't had a pacifier since like Monday I think.  Phew!!  That makes me super happy.  Goodbye nasty thing.  Thank your for your help till now.

This morning I got to try out my camera skills and take picture of a hawk that was perched on our across the street neighbors roof.  It was gorgeous.  I have never seen a hawk chill in a neighborhood before like that.  I've seen them looking for food in the air but he was just looking around and then started to sing.  I loved it.  He may have been a she. It was pretty big.  It definitely wasn't starving. hehe!!  The other birds didn't care that he was around.  If he's hanging around the cat's that roam aren't doing a proper job at mouse/rat hunting. hehe!!  I think I will take my eyes out since I get to stick a new pair in tomorrow and say good night. Sorry.  It's just been a blah day.  I hope all of yours was better.  Nighty night!!

D167&168...I did it! I did it! I did it!!

So yesterday I did it.  I went 4.5 miles on the treadmill.  Yes!!  On top of that I didn't run below the speed of 4.6 and went a full 30 mins at 4.8 before I had to slow a little.  It felt so good.  I'm so proud of myself. Hopefully I can do the same today.  Yesterday I was also able to help another sister in the ward and watched her three of her kiddo's while she went to the Dr.  Although, my reputation for being ornery is starting fade especially if I keep being nice.  hehe!!  No, I love to help out if I can.  Most of the time I'm home anyway.  I also went visiting teaching and then Kyle came over for dinner and a movie. He spent the night since we're pretty close to SLCC.  Siko has been going potty all by himself.  And I mean doesn't' ask for help or for you to be in the bathroom with him.  Hopefully it will stay. hehe!!  He comes and goes.  And I need some water.

Today will hopefully be a slower day.  I need to fold some laundry as well as get my resistance in after my cardio and start some laundry.  A mother's work is never done.  Well neither is a dad's.  hehe!!  But I'm still waiting for the rain and fall to get here.  The store's are putting Halloween stuff up and I'm getting super excited.  I love love love Halloween.  I need to get to my parents and go through their costumes.  We may have to head to Saver's early this year.  I have some more visiting teaching to do this evening and then it's bath time for the boys.  Super fun.  I hope your hump day will be a good day.  Here's to Wednesday!!

D166...Monday, Monday!!

Yesterday was another early run for me.  So the day started early.  Mostly because I got to watch one of the cute babies in our ward.  I started to call her Lillybug because she reminds me of DK in a lot of ways.  She's super curious about everything, super smiley, and has to have a toy in each hand. hehe!!  Plus it didn't take her long to find and toss the bath toys in the bathtub one of the times I had to go in there for something.  It was so much fun to have her here.  The boys loved it too.  She chased the cat downstairs as soon as I put her down after she got here. hehe!! Then the gate went up. No babies are allowed to fall down the stairs. I won't have it.

Ariel had a great day at school. Her first day went great.  Here's to hoping her second day goes as good.  We met Adam up at the Kneaders in Bountiful for dinner because we had a birthday party to go too.  DK woke up from a short nap grumpy and drove some people out of kneaders which is fine because the one lady kept staring as if to say take that kid out of here.  Ya no.  Deal or you leave.  haha!! I'm such a horrible person.  But really.  Ariel took him outside and walked with him and then Adam did when he was done and he got over it quickly.  But no before they left.  There were two other ladies there too that just sort of chuckled  when he got pretty loud. And a teenage couple that handled it better than this one lady. Silly people.  We got home in time for me to water and for all of to read. I didn't feel like eating my snack when it was time too. I sort of regretted that later and this morning. hehe!!  Have a great day everyone!!

I really need to make time for blogging. My old memory can't handle this three day stuff!!

D163-Friday-was a busy day. More than I wanted it to be.  Figures.  I wanted to paint my fingernails and toenail's but I got busy doing other things, like cleaning the house, treadmill, and resistance was a joke with Siko on Friday.  He kept crawling under me. It made for an interesting challenge that was annoying too. hehe!!  But we both survived. Then it was time to get ready for the drive in.  We went and saw The Bourne Legacy and The Dark Knight Rises.  Both excellent movies, although I couldn't help thinking about the shooting in Colorado during Batman.  I fear that movie is tainted.  Sad.

D164-Saturday-I slept in till 10:00 and got up and ate breakfast and my morning snack(modified) and then Adam and I started to scrape the caulk around the bathtub upstairs and then Adam re-caulked.  Hopefully that will stop the leak in the  downstairs bathroom.  This house.  Then it was time to get ready to go to the Jordan North 16th Ward reunion.  It was so much fun.. Got to see a lot of YW leaders that I haven't seen in forever and got to see some of their kids grown.  It was great.  Got to see Natalie which was a real treat.  We laughed like old times and got caught up.  Then we bathed the boys and my parents and then went home. PS-thank you all for the great compliments.  They truly are great to hear.

D165-Today-I didn't get time to treadmill Saturday so I got up early this morning. I enjoyed the lightening, rain and wind while I ran.  DK woke up cranky and feel asleep during church.  Then it was choir practice, visiting teacher's visit, and then I got the text from mom about my dad having chest pains but that we shouldn't' worry. He is spending the night in the hospital to be sure.  They don't think it was a heart attack but there could be a blockage.  He had a stent put in probably close to 10 years ago in one artery.  I am a bit worried.  But that's normal I think for situation's like this.  He was doing good when my left the hospital.  We had Adam's parents and Kyle over for dinner.  That was fun.  We made salmon.  So then Siko wanted to go home with them so he did.  Then we read, drew and now it's time for Ariel's school year blessing. I can't believe I have a High School student.  Oh boy. Ninth grade. Here we come.  Good night all.

Day161&162...Phew!! Busy, busy, busy!!

But I'm sure none of you know what that's like. hehe!!  My burn is getting better so that's awesome.  Still hurts a little and looks horrible.  Yesterday when I ran I decided to start a little faster and run a little faster.  I was able to run for almost a half an hour before I had to stop.  Same with today. Awesome.  Although I will be honest. I never thought I could love and hate running.  During my workout my knees want to buckle, my ankles want to do the same, and by the time I'm ready to cool down I can barely walk.  The only relief is that I recover very quickly.  And I love the stretching part. hehe!!  Last night I got to go out for a birthday party.  The party was at the Tavernacle.  Yes it's a bar.  It's a pretty awesome one too.  It was bright and the pianists that were there are amazing and no smoking.  There were a few songs that were a bit eh, but that's to be expected. So Rose, thank you for inviting me. It was fun. They got me up to dance to a song that didn't have good rhythm most of them time. But it was fun.  They tried to get me to eat the pizza that smelt so yummy but I held my ground.  I did however, have a virgin strawberry daiquiri.  They are my favorite.  And the bar tender made it perfect.

I didn't get to bed to late and or early. hehe!!  And got up when the boys did at 8:00. I've been super tired all day.  I finished my watering though so that rocks.  During my workout today we started watching the Hunger Games.  Oh and if you haven't seen Unstoppable.  Watch it.  It's such a great movie.  Two of my favorite actors are in it.  Denzel Washington(hotty) and Chris Pine(another hotty).  I have a lot of favorite actors.  If haven't noticed.  But back to me.  hehe!!  I've started to notice muscle definition in my calves and thighs especially during my resistance training.  It's fantastic. Today was my weigh in and I lost 4 pounds.  So that's a total of 57 pounds and I started my 24th week today.  It's crazy and I love it. So I am especially thankful I stopped at that daiquiri.  Someday I will be able to enjoy one piece of pizza again.  Good night all.

Beware!! Three days below.

Day 158-Sunday I believe.  Busy busy.  Poor Siko starting his first day with the super runs.  he went through two pairs of underwear and shorts before church and two more of each before bed.  Poor kid.  Sunday's dinner was yummy. I had my bread for dinner because we had fondue.  Now I can't have cheese and yes I did have some.  Not a lot.  I had my serving of veggies and my fat as well.  Desert  was dark chocolate and lots of strawberries.  I did get a moldy one though.  Siko and Ariel camped out in the front room which was fun for them.  Ariel is such a great big sister.

Day 159-Monday-The super runs continued and it was starting to show. Siko went through about five pair each of underwear and shorts.  I had to wash some towels to wash his clothes. He was quickly running out. I also left my phone up at the  in laws so that evening we went up there and I grabbed some oil for Siko so he could get some relief.  On top of all that some how we have been having a ton of dishes.  Before we went up there our internet went down.  Blah!!  Technology sucks when it doesn't work properly.  It was back on by the time we got back but I was too tired to blog.  Oh and I burned the crap out of my right tricep. It's from my elbow up to almost my armpit.  Ariel took a pic of it yesterday.  It's not as bad today but holy crap it hurts. 

Day 160-Today-Well the super runs continued but started to slow down once he was up and started eating.  Siko came into bed with us a few hours after DK had.  But he had an accident on our bed.  At 5:24 AM he woke up and said he had to go potty.  So he went, I cleaned him up, we got him dressed and he went back out in the front room for his camp out with sissy and ate a gogurt before going back to sleep.  I put some more oil on him as well.  Then I decided to just get on the treadmill. Had a great workout. I think I need to up my speed and or the incline.  Anyway, DK woke up just after I got done eating breakfast and then I went upstairs to check on Siko and Ariel and both were sleeping and Siko had moved to DK's bed. hehe!!  They boy slept till almost 10.  Lucky's.  I also did my resistance and had to fight with DK sometimes but he did really good and stayed out of the way for the most part.  Then it was dishes, snack while balancing the checkbook, shower, lunch, Costco, snack, laundry, dinner, laundry, dinner(the family), reading, laundry, snack, and ready for bed with some more laundry to go.  I feel like that's all I've been doing lately. Laundry and dishes.  I am pooped.  So good night and sleep good and pray for rain people of Utah. We need it in more ways than one.

156&157..."I was going to come over and say hi but I wanted you to stand up to get the full effect."

That is a quote from my cousin in law, Gina, at Grandpa Walker's birthday party up at the cabin.  Gina, thank you.  Compliments are awesome.  I need to give more out.  You're all beautiful.  Of course you always look fantastic so I have to keep up some how. hehe!!  It was a beautiful evening in Lambs Canyon.  Today was a busy day.  Watering, cleaning, treadmill, and the party.  But it was a good day.  I did forget to eat my favorite snack. My apple and peanut butter.  I was getting ready for the party. hehe!! I didn't realize I had forgot till I started eating my dinner.  Then DK was angry and knocked half my beans on the ground.  Good thing there were some yummy veggies I could eat.  Yum, yum!!

Yesterday was busy as well.  I volunteered at the Magna Bishop Store House in the morning.  I didn't bring my snack because I wasn't sure if I would be able to break away to eat it.  I did okay and ate some extra veggies and salad to make up for it. I ate some string cheese when I got back.  Then it was store time, then my workout, then I got ready to go to Dickey and Alis's house for pizza and a movie.  Well, pizza for everyone else. I ate dinner on the way and brought my dessert with me.  We watched Furry Vengeance.  It was good.  Brendan Fraser is still hot.  Now its movie time and then bed time.  Good night all.

D155.....A one pound lost is better than a one pound gain.

But seriously.  Today was better.  My weigh in wasn't dreadful but it wasn't spectacular.  I'm feeling the hormone shift which is what I think my issue was yesterday.  Well some of it anyway.  I got my cardio and resistance in today but didn't make it to the store. I will have to squeeze it in tomorrow.  Oh my feet hurt. I will have to whip out my deep blue and put some on my feet.  That is an doTERRA oil. One I can't wait to try. Oh crap. I forgot to call my mother in law.  Dang it.  I'm trying now.  Yikes. It's only 10:30 at night.  Boo!!  She's still at work.  Holy cow. That's dedication people.  But I digress.

So today I got my website for doTERRA.  Adam is going to take a look at it and then I will post it.  When I do please take a look and then ask questions. I totally believe in these oils and the benefits they bring.  There are so many so I don't know a lot about them yet but I am learning and will learn with you as well. I can't wait for fall.  This endless heat doesn't help the mood.  This is short because I'm tired and ready to go to bed.  Night all!!

D154..."I can't be nice."

Another quote from my son.  That kid I'm tellin ya.  I don't know how either of us will survive this life.  Registration went good other than I don't know how the check will clear.  Ariel got me all pissed off after we left.  I was able to run when we got home and the boys did okay.  When Ariel starts school I might have to blockade them downstairs so I can keep an eye on them.  I made food that Ariel didn't want to eat, again.  That's getting old. I seriously don't know why I try.  I'm about over it.  It doesn't seem to matter anyway.  I did the laundry and thought I was done but Siko changed that for me.  I watered and took the boys outside and DK couldn't stay in the yard so we went back in.  I also finally filled the our bird feeder that's been empty for like a month. Took my stool out there and prayed I didn't fall.

After we came in it was bath time. That's always fun to do alone.  DK of course was the first to come out and I then my worst fear came true.  Siko dumped a bunch of water all over the floor.  Awesome. There is water still coming out from under the toilet.  The floor mats three or four towels and more laundry for me to do.  Awesome.  Needless to say I don't plan on having a great weigh in tomorrow.  I've been angry today more than I've been happy. I wanted to run away but you can't run away from life.  It'll always be there and life sucks right now. Big time.  I'm waiting for the anvil to drop.  Hopefully it won't miss when it does.  It's like waiting for the flood that you know is coming, you just don't know when and not knowing how to stop it.   I think Siko put himself to bed.  Good. He needs it.

D153..."Food hurts my tummy."

Says Siko.  That kid is so funny. He wants goodies all day and when you say he has to eat real food that is the answer you get. hehe!!  Our response is always, well if food hurts your tummy so do treats.  He doesn't like that answer. hehe!!  Dang kid.  So my good friend Cherie had her baby.  A beautiful baby girl.  Congratulations to you and Dewayne.  So there were no DK accidents today with the treadmill, or wall, or window sill.  That kid is more accident pron than me.  Poor thing.  Only two meals were late. And a crazy lady at the hospital tonight tried to get in our car and DK just hit his head on the window sill.  I jinxed him. Sorry DK.

So we're pretty sure the lady in the hospital parking lot was drunk.  She walked right out in front of our car, stopped to talk to her hubby, then stumble out of the way, and then tried to get in the back seat. Thank you automatic locks.  She yelled sorry and we just drove away wondering what the freak?  Lay off the booze lady.   Tomorrow is school registration. I can't believe Ariel will be in 9th grade. I have a High School student.  I don't feel old enough for that.....yet.  I will be in ten years though. haha!!  When I'll be doing it all over again. Well it's more like 11 since Siko will have to wait a year to go to kindergarten.  Time for prayer. Good night all.

D151&152...."Gummy bears make me happy."

A quote from Siko tonight.  lol!!  I'll explain a more a little later.  I was going to post last night but we got home super late from the Walker's because we decided to stay and finish watching the closing ceremony from the Olympics and London didn't disappoint.  And neither did Brazil.  They got me all excited for the next summer Olympics.  Yesterday was a pretty normal day.  Church, food, choir, food, and family mixed with food. hehe!!  It wasn't a very hot day but still pretty toasty.  I can't wait for fall.  Siko had a rough day yesterday.  Especially when we got there.  He's been going through a I don't want to eat phase again. That kid. How do I get him to start tasting food to move him toward eating food.  Thank goodness for home made pancakes with whole wheat flour and hidden veggies.  He will eat those. hehe!!

Today was a crazy day.  Both Adam and I slept in. oops.  He luckily was only a few minutes late for work.  I however didn't eat till 8.  boo!!  DK woke up just as we did.  I made him and egg and toast and he still wanted my food. What they????  Kids!!  He eventually ate his egg.  I was finally able to get on the treadmill but after my niece got here.  They little then proceeded to play wipe out around the treadmill.  They crack me up.  Then DK decided to be a dare devil.  How many times can one do the same stupid thing before finally learning a lesson from it?  DK out a pillow on the treadmill after I started running while he was hanging onto it.  I was striding around him trying to figure out how not to make things worse.  I finally hopped to the sides right when he decided to lift his legs off the floor and then he hit the wall. I got the key out just before he did but really.  That's the third freaking time.  Garg!!  He cried and I yelled and then loved him and then Ariel took him upstairs and I proceeded to finish my workout.  He came back down after like 5 minutes and started playing with my fan and then the toys.  I also did Yoga Meltdown. Holy freaking cow.  I can tell I'm getting stronger but I still have to stop on those dang push ups.  I can push through fine with the other parts just not those.  I'm so weak.  Tonight for FHE dessert we went to Frogurt at the mall.  A yummy way to end the day and this where my title comes from.  That is what Siko said when we were getting ready to leave. I am pretty tired though so good night.     

D150...Today was a good day!!

It started out with breakfast and then I got on the treadmill.  Okay. I know why there is a key that is supposed to come out just in case you trip and fall so the treadmill will turn off, but holy crap.  I just barely tap it and it comes out. So I basically had to start all over again. I made some changes to my watch the other day and I'm glad I did. It's showing more calories burned and I just changed my workout level from fair to good. hehe!!  I also did resistance today after my morning snack.  However, my abs and arms are still sore from Wednesday so that was interesting.  I got it done though and I survived.  Thank goodness.  Adam grilled my chicken for me today.  yummy!!

Now I don't normally shower twice in one day but after two hard and sweaty workouts you have too.   The second one came after a trip to Seven Peaks.  We went with Adam's mom, brother and his wife Erika as well as Haliegh, Ariel's friend in the ward, and Ariel and her dad came.  It was fun. I ate dinner alone out in the picnic area when it was time for me to eat.  I enjoyed the smell of fried chicken, pizza, and burgers.  I didn't pack my snack because I really didn't think we'd be there that late and we were.  Boo!! But I didn't give in to my dippin dots craving.  Phew!!  Now I am pooped and not burned.  Thank goodness.  Have a great evening all.

D148&149..."Prepare to be amazed!" (and viewer discretion advised)

So I got super busy yesterday so sorry for not posting. And who can guess where my quote is from?  I weighed in and lost 2 more pounds.  Sweet!!  I also went to Sarah's to get measured and here are my totals since March 11th.
BMI-down 8.6
BF%-down 6.4%
Neck-down 1.50"
Chest-down 4.25"
Waist-down 6.50"
Hips-down 10.0"
Thigh-down 4.25"
Calf-down 2.50"
Upper Arm-down 1.75"
Lower Arm-down 1.25"

Total weight loss since March 1st is 52 pounds.  Holy freaking crap people.  Awesomeness. Complete awesomeness.  I'm also on the treadmill 25.5 miles a week and according to my watch I've burned over 15,000 calories in the last four weeks. My abs have been so sore from that resistance on Wednesday. Yesterday my entire body hurt from my jaw to my feet.  And today I still can't sneeze without wanting to cry.  Tomorrow will have to be an easier day on my abs workout.  But I was able to start cleaning the house and did get the dishes done. Oh and I had a chocolate chip cookie yesterday.  Sorry for disappointing all of you but I had to "celebrate".

Today I could not get up to save my life.  Sarah told me to eat before hopping on the treadmill. Thank goodness that's okay.  I work out better that way.  But Siko didn't sleep good which meant I didn't either and my body was just so sore.  I watered, mowed, cleaned upstairs, treadmilled, showered, then helped Adam's scouts wash my car.  And I did eat in between all of that. hehe!! And the dishes still need to be done.  I posted a two links of my before pictures and my half way mark.  Keep in mind I am in a bra and underwear and they're scary but shows all the hard work I've put in.  So viewer discretion is advised when clicking on the links. My before pic was taken on March 14th(right) and the half way pic was taken on August 3rd(left).

D146&147....It's cloudy but no rain. Boo!!

Yesterday:  Oh boy. It was a day. A day of fun and a lot of work.  I slept in...again, and before I could get on the treadmill I had to clean up my bathroom floor after my youngest niece had an accident.  Which was really all good. I need to wash the mats and mop the floor anyway.  So after that I got on the treadmill and had an almost awesome run. My towel knocked the key out and I stopped for a few seconds till I got it all back under control.  But I ran the entire time. Well except for the warm up, cool down, and the towel incident.  I'm awesome.  Sorry.  So after that it was a shower because ew. I stink after the treadmill.  Then lunch and then sweeping and mopping and then starting and almost finishing laundry.  Phew!! Oh wait. I'm not done yet.  It was also bath night. Fun, fun, fun. Especially since Adam and Ariel went to help his mom with activity days in her ward.  They tie died shirts and Adam and Ariel did that last year for Youth Conference.  So it was just me and the boys.  Like always.  Adam started a goal on Monday for FHE.  We are reading a chapter every night for 30 days in the Book of Mormon and then we draw a picture from a list he found.  It's pretty awesome although I can't draw to save my life. hehe!!

Today:  I actually got up on time but didn't get on the treadmill till almost 6.  My workout wasn't as good as the last two days but it was still awesome.  Everything is awesome.  After breakfast I found an awesome workout for my resistance ball on youtube.  So I did it and holy cow I was sore by the time I got done. hehe!!  Sweet. I'm so stoked that I found one for it.  Now I have even more to switch around with.  We went to Costco this morning and Siko asked to get cookies so I said yes and DK grabbed them out of my hand and opened his mouth and eyes real wide.  I think he may have been excited.  By the time out Costco trip was over the boys had had enough and we were only there for about 40 mins. Really.  Ariel got one pair of her glasses fixed. The lady that did was super nice.  I am all stocked up again and ready for asparagus. I ran out last week and just finished off the broccoli and green beans I had to try and save money.  Most of my meals this week have been late but I get them all in.  I'm finishing up laundry now and I will be home alone again with the boys.  I can't wait till the 22nd.  Thanks Rose for letting come have a girls night out.  I need as much as any other mommy. hehe!!  Have a great rest of you hump day people!!

D145....No. Not that!!!!!

I slept so horribly last night.  Went to bed and a few hours later got woken up by some thunder and then the lightening came and more thunder and then the cat decided she wanted love and started drooling on me.  Oi!!  Then I just couldn't get up to workout, but when I did I ran for fifty minutes again.  Woo-hoo!! My knees were screaming but they made it and they recovered pretty quick.  This blog may have a lot of spelling errors. Sorry. It's late and I'm tired.  We had a fun day with my nieces today. Siko spent the day with granna. He didn't want to come last night so he spent the night and then didn't want to come home this morning. My mother in law wasn't shedding tears over that one. hehe!!

Got my towels washed and folded.  That's amazing.  While I was washing my face I noticed, while popping a few white heads(this info is important) I noticed two black hairs on my upper lip. What the???  WWWAAAAAAAA!!!    I'm still getting zits but I have grey hair also and now I'm getting freaking black hair on my upper lip?  None of that makes sense.  Boo to getting older.  My grandma was right. It sucks.  lol!!  Oh and the grey hair I can deal with.  They black upper lip hair.....ya you can come back when the "change" happens okay.   Oh and for those of you who know me well and know that I basically pulled just about every eyelash out, Mary Kay has a new eyelash and brow serum that is amazing.  I've been using it for just over 30 days and  lashes are longer and now starting to thicken up.  Holy cow.  If anyone is interested it's $38.00 and it won't turn your eyes yellow like that other stuff.   And it works.  We tried to take a pic of my eyes but it didn't work very well.  You'll have to just trust me.  Good night all.  Thanks for reading all my personal craziness. hehe!!

D144..."huhuhu. Goggles!"

I love the movie UP.  Always makes me laugh.  Yesterday was fast Sunday and I had the hardest time fasting yesterday.  I had a low grade headache till I broke my fast. I was super tired on top of that and a few time I thought I might pass out after standing up.  Geesh!!  I don't know what that was all about but holy cow. It sucked.  Other than that yesterday was good.  I had sharing time and it was fun. I brought some of my high school dance pictures and one of my 9th grade promotion pictures.  We talked about friends.  I let the senior primary come up and look at them and see if they could guess which was me. It was easy. I still look the same other than my hair. hehe!!  They did really good picking me out.  Ariel got excited when she saw them too. She likes to laugh at my hair. Oh 90's bangs. Please don't come back in style. haha!!

We went up to Adam's parents for dinner and we enjoyed the smell of the rain during dinner.  We had turkey and it makes me crave thanksgiving dinner. I'm so odd.  The rest of the evening we sat and chatted and played Sketchy.  It's a fun game.  The rain cooled the evening off enough that we drove home with the windows rolled down.  But I know it will be super hot again.  Boo!!  Rain.....come back!!!!!  Have a great Monday and I'll post again later.

D142&143...I don't have anything witty to insert here today.

Yesterday: Was busy. Holy cow.  I think I slept in. Ya, I'm lazy, but I got my cardio in and it was pretty good.  I enjoyed watching Eclipse.  After I ate lunch I cleaned upstairs with Ariel's help and then it was time to shower because I was super stinky.  That's what happens when you sweat for an hour on the treadmill.  Ew!   We had a wedding reception to go to last night and then we went up to my sisters to get some boxes.  Big Brothers and Big Sisters are making a run in my parent's neighborhood next Friday and I have a butt load of clothes that need to go. Between me and my mother in law we will be filling a lot of boxes.  After my sisters we celebrated my half way mark by go to Yogurtland for some frozen yogurt and fruit.  It was yummy.

Today: I freaking slept in again.  This time not so much on purpose. I woke up when DK did which was about 7:30 as always.  So I was pretty hungry.  While I ate I watered and then did dishes while Adam finished watering for me.  Then I went to a baptism.  It was awesome.  Such cute kids.  I received a lot of compliments so thank you again everyone.  It's very nice to hear.  Tonight thought I feel very warm and bloaty.  It's nasty.  I did get my cardio and resistance in by Sarah's Biggest Looser DVD.  Holy cow.  My legs and shoulder got an awesome workout as well as my abs.  I am expecting to super sore by Monday.  We had to make a run to Wal-Mart because we never seem to get it all in one shot and the boys finally broke my mouse. So I got a new one and it will be hidden so they can't drag it around and toss it down the stairs.  After all it was a ten dollar mouse. hehe!!  And now it's time for bed.  Well as soon as Ariel get's back from Lagoon. Oh to be young again.......

D141....Yes!!!

Today Ariel and I had to go back to the Dentist for some fillings. She had two and he just fix a few of mine.  Boy oh boy. He didn't numb me and a few times I got chills from the drill.  Ew!!  But I survived and still love my Dentist.  He's the best.  My run on the treadmill wasn't as good as yesterday but it was still awesome even with how sore I still was this morning.  I got some KT tape and I need to figure out how to tape it on my feet.  My poor ankles have been having issues and my left knee too.  They make me feel like I'm 500 years old most days.

I made my special pancakes for the boys. I combined spinach and my moms yummy sugar free apple sauce as well as whole wheat flour.  Both the boys ate two.  You can tell Siko had a good dinner because he has good energy right now.  I think the Benedryl is working for his hives too. Thank goodness.  Ariel left our freezer chest open today. I didn't go downstairs till it had been left open for 5 hours.  Thank goodness it was barley thawed but holy cow.  How do you forget to close something like that? hehe!!

Well I did it.  I lost a pound and I am now 50 pounds down and half way to my goal.  It feels so good. I have 10 pounds to go to be where I was when Adam and I got married 5 1/2 years ago.  I bet I can fit in my Temple dress again. I'll have to try it on so we can go soon.  This evening DK got on our bed and Sparkle was on it and he cuddled up to her and kissed her, then he pet her, and the he started to play with her ears and she was so good just putting up with it.  She would eventually shake her head and that made him laugh and after he started to pull on her ear hair she got up and left. hehe!!  That just reminded me that The Hobbit comes out in December and I can't wait.  Sqwee!!  I need to go wash my face and brush my teeth.  Good night all.  Sleep good.  Another quick and cute thing.  Siko has a stuff chameleon and he keeps coming up to me to get kisses for it because it keeps breaking it's legs and tail. Mom's kisses truly fix everything.

D140.....Just don't touch me today!!

I am so sore.  From shoulder to shoulder and my neck and my legs and bottom.  Holy cow.  Not to mention, since DK took a super late and long nap yesterday I was up late. I woke up after midnight when DK had fallen asleep on my legs that were super restless.  So I slept in this morning and didn't want to get out of bed when the boys woke up. I was in my jammies till 1:45 while I was folding laundry and until I got ready to get on the treadmill.  I've been on this Rob Pattinson kick lately that intensified when he left Kristin Stewart. Seriously. I'm I in High School still? hehe!!  So I watched Twilight.  He's just so cute.  Really though he's jail bait so it's sort of icky to say he's cute. haha!!  And Adam if you reading this, you're still my Edward.  xoxoxo!!

I think Siko was allergic to his medicine for his eye infection.  Can allergies show up after you're done taking it?  He had hives all over by 3:00 today. I had to give him a dose of benedryl.  He'll need some more before bed. Poor kid.  He was itching his belly button so bad today that it bled a little.  All of that happened after I ran for 50 mins straight. ye-ha!! I started out at 4.6 mph had to slow down to 4.0 mph for a few mins at the end and then ended at 4.2 mph.  Ya that's slow for most but for my short and still a little out of shape legs, it's pretty good, I think.  Tomorrow is weigh in day and I don't want to get to excited but I can't help myself at the same time. I'm so close to being half way to my goal and I've been working so hard that I don't want to get on the scale and be disappointed.  I know I will flat line a few times. I know I won't loose every week. I know that I shouldn't stress about it but Aunt Flo makes me crazy.  Everyone have a great evening and I hope to sleep good so you do the same.
