Good Morning everyone,
How are we all today? Sorry I have not been on much this week...I have been trying to get things done around here and at the slow pace I'm moving it takes double the time. No exercise yet but we'll see what the doctor says tomorrow...I'm thinking he will say no to working out only because my foot is so bruised still and is really sore...I'm trying not to let it get me down...but I have been having a lot of trouble getting to sleep at night...I think it is the lack of exercise.

I tried for a couple days doing the bicycle laying on my back feet and legs pumping...lol...I'm so sore in my thighs and my abs have been killing me but I think it is a great exercise for anyone who wants to try.

Just got a phone call my best friend is going in for her c-section this morning a week early because she is loosing fluid...I'm now crazy excited and my job was to be to keep her hubby calm he is a little anxious about hospital environments...now I'm so excited I'm crying neeed to pull myself together so he does not think i'm a nut case. Ok well I'm off to drop my little one off to my parents and go wait for a baby to arrive!! I'll let you know how it goes.

Good Morning people!!!

Well, things are goin pretty good on this side of things! I am keeping myself out of bed in the evening and cleaning... Hey that is a work out! Right? LOL anyways, I am taking time for myself to get my life under control- simple things like keeping my bathroom clean, and my bedroom (I live with my mom, so those are the big ones right now). Trying to keep things healthy and happy.

Hope yall have a great day!

ok you guys - i'm back and pumped up!!!

amazing what a face-paced walk does in the morning for your mood all day long. had to hurry to get to the vet for some cat food b4 gymnastics so a walk that normally would take us 1 hour at a decent pace took us only 40 min at a fas pace - awesome!!! ate a good lunch and bfast today too with NO slips!!!

gotta go see a house!

ok so ive been a little mia lately but i PROMISE to get back on that...except i'll be goign to houston from tomorrow night till monday night-but when i get back i hope to change lots of things--i ate lots of veggies and fruit this week so that was good-drank lots of water-had nothing but water.

i just did step ups--i never know what they're called--my desk is a step up from the rest of the office and i used that and did 100 step ups-50 per foot/leg-for 5 mins and man i started sweating and heart was racing-geez am I that out of shape?! haha!

everyone is doing soo well here i cant get over it!!

i think in like 10-15 mins i'll do those step ups again--and ill sprinkle them throughout the day.


GO DIAMONDS!

I'm glad to know that its not my computer thats running so darn slow!! I was on here earlier and got impatient and logged off. It seems alittle better now!!
We had awards this morning at the school and then they let us bring our kids home!! (I think they are just tired of dealing with them. THANKS!!!) ha-ha!! So our summer officially starts tomorrow. So guys please be patient with me I may seem a little nuttier than usual!!
We are almost packed up and ready to head out tomorrow. I will tell you I LOVE camping but it is SO much work. Especially when there is 1 main person that does EVERYTHING!!! All i have to do tonight is load up the food in the fridge and then pack a few last minute things in the am and we will hit the road!!
All this running this week I have lost 1 pound WHOO-HOO!!
Dawn - SHoot girl its 90 degrees here. We had a cold front come thru here a few days ago and knocked us down into the 80's. So we'll be roasting by mid June!!
I am so glad your test came back A-OK!!!
Debbie - You are awesome girl!! And a #1 cheerleader!! You're support is Fantastic!!
Lyssa- The movies sounded fun!! What did you go and see? Kung Fu Panda comes out in a few weeks that looks so funny!! Sorry thats about the extent of my going to the movies. Ha-Ha!!
Annia - We miss you!! I hope you are doing well!!
Zina- The races sounds fun!! We are talking about going to either New York or Washington DC in the next few weeks for a daytrip. We promised Austin if he got straight A's and perfect attendance we would do one or the other. He would really like to go to the beach for a few days but thats just too much$$$. We fly for free so we heard those 2 places were great for daytrips.

Everyone have a great weekend!! I will try to get back on here in the morning before we leave!!

Yeah no more work until Tuesday. 4 day weekend . Yes!!! I have blood work in the morning and then a day with my grandson.
Jen what would be easier the exercise you did or riding that bike that Debbie is imagining? LOL Atleast Debbie made your day.
Debbie I don't think I have done anything special for anyone today. Maybe tomorrow... Exercise well, I cleaned house today, cared for the kids, and walked 3 miles today. Does that count? I wish I could go camping with Tanis...
It sounds like so much fun. (except the packing up part)
