Well i havent posted much this week. It’s been one of those weeks, gloomy and raining outside. I also have had a caffine withdrawl headache on and off for 3 days now. I knew it would happen since i was all about the caffine, even when i wasnt drinking coke i was eating chocolate or drinking tea so there was always some in my system. I dont plan on stopping tea and chocolate but i am trying to “purge” my system so that i dont go bonkers like i always do so im not eating it right now. So in return my body is very angry with me. I dont blame it one bit. I am actually some what proud of myself. Brad has even “cheated” on this healthier way of living and normally thats all it takes for me to cave but i havent. Now if i could just start walking and drinking more water life would be grand! Baby steps… I am so ready for it to be Saturday. We are going out of town to see some friends and i can not wait! Just to be out doing something fun with fun people will be nice. We were originally going to stay over night but that has since changed. It will still be a nice trip regaurdless… I am two days behind on my daily photo’s, with all the gloom and headaches i havent been taking many pictures. I hope to post some today though, thats if i can resist crawling into bed as soon as brad gets home and sleeping until Saturday.

Isnt it strange how…

leave a comment »

When you do something that you think is so “blah” but people end up liking it? I made chicken with bow tie noodles last night. Basically its chicken browned or boiled however you choose to cook it. Cut up/shredded and put in a cream of mushroom sauce then mixed with the noodles. Nothing fancy here on flavor. I have in my opinion cooked many things that are WAY better but wouldnt you knowmy kids LOVE it! I mean so much so they asked for leftovers tonight and when i said we didnt have any(because they ate it all) they asked for me to cook it again! I have cooked this before but the kids were much smaller so they dont remember it. The only other dish they have “RAVED” over this much is Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti, and even that i understand because its actually really yummy!!! They are strange little creatures…

Now for the sad part of this post. I have to lose weight. I mean ive been needing to, since i am quite large but its a “MUST” now because im going to be in a wedding soon and i cant look like this. I hate how you know you need to diet/lose weight but until some kind of event comes up it never really hits you, and then its to late!!! You have to go to these events looking like Fatty McFatter while everyone else flutters around in their size 5 dresses talking about how fat they look! Do they not see you? Do they think we wont realize we are way bigger?! BLAH So yeah im a little bitter about the situation(diet, not the wedding) but my resolution for this year was to get healthier so its not like i didnt plan sometime this year to get it started, just i mean its just the 10th of the new year! I have not yet decided how to go about this. I know i want us to eat better foods,etc but im going to have to do more then that to drop some fast weight before this wedding. Let the games begin!!!

Monday Woes…

leave a comment »

What is it about Monday’s that make them so terrible. The getting up early again, the traffic, the day dragging on forever! Even if you dont work Monday’s still arent much better. To add to the yuck of Monday i have done something to my back, pinched a nerve or something but last night when i went to get off my counch it hurrrrttt and it still does! Talk about slow you down and make you realize how much you bend during the course of the day. I also did not sleep well last night. Payton kept crying out in his sleep last night so i was up and down checking on him, wimpering in pain as i got in and out the bed.

Well now that I’ve done enough complaining for the week… Besides the back pain the weekend was really good. We even made it to Church! Which is a huge plus for us seeing how for about 2 months we havent been able to get off our lazy behinds and go. Sad i know! We had brad’s brother and his wife over last night for dinner we had a really good time. Nice way to end the weekend.

I had to go do some stuff and now that ive come back to finish ive lost my train of thought…So i guess i will go for now…

I think im in love…

With my CHI! Brad got me a CHIfor Christmas this year. I have been asking for one since it was first used on my hair. They are the BEST flat irons ever. Trust me I know. I have spent lots of $’s trying to duplicate it without actually buying it because brad thought it was to much for a flat iron! However he realized i spent more then the actual cost of one on knock offs and again realized how i am truly ALWAYS right! :D With that said, i think i might run off and marry it. OK not only did it straighten my hair, but its silky, not frizzy and with the humidity we have here its still STRAIGHT! Only a CHIcan do this people! Seriously its wonderful. Now i need a new hair cut to go with its awesomeness!
