A boring day

Let's see now.......on the agenda for today is

1. laundry
2. vacuum
3. dishes
4. possibly mop again (Jeremy didn't do it on his hands and knees so it wasn't a great job)
5. wrap b-day present
6. go to b-day party
7. oh wait....put on skirt to go to b-day party
8. drop check off at MIL
9. grocery shopping
10. make dinner
11. and many more countless things we do in a day

sounds boring doesn't it. The weather is crappy this week, so that rules out walks, and trips to the park, and picnics and playing outside. Which is what I wanted for this week.

Hurray

It is finally here. SPRING BREAK!!! HURRAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am looking forward to a week full of visiting friends, keeping my house clean (b/c it is FINALLY how I like it) and having fun. I doubt that I will get to sleep in all that much, but who cares. I will enjoy it. The weather is going to be a little crappy, but hopefully it will warm up to the 70's and sunny soon.
Sorry if this blog has been a little slow lately, my mind has seemed to be on auto-pilot lately, and I don't really have anything interesting to say.
I have been doing good on the whole walking thing. I did it every day this week except yesterday and today. Yesterday b/c I cleaned ALL day, and today b/c it is crappy and raining, and my gym is not open today. (for those of you who don't know, my gym is TJ's house. I use her treadmill, which has been a HUGE blessing to me. THANK YOU TJ!!!) And furthermore TJ, I know that you hate the nickname TJ, but I happen to LOVE it. I think that it is very cute, and just fits you so well. I know, I know, the cute word.

fever

Well, we are slowly inching our way toward spring break. 2 more days, and we are free for a week. I do have to work 1 morning, but I can totally handle that. I really think that #1 is ready for a break in particular. I am really hoping for a nice week weather wise. I want to be outside!

Nonsense

Well, I am very thankful for hubby, I just have to say. He started working on our laundry last night. The mountain of laundry that has been growing all week, and we are finally starting to tackle it.
Today is Wednesday. And I am exhausted. I don't think we are going to go to church tonight. I need a night to do nothing except laundry. I am going to a lady's retreat this weekend and I need to leave w/ my house in order. If I don't, then I won't come home to a clean house.
This is the 1st day of spring. My #1 is very excited about it also. She thinks that it will no longer be cold outside. I didn't want to break her heart and tell her it will still be cold. But anyway, she walked into my classroom today and started singing a Happy Spring song. It was really cute. But I have to admit, I am really excited about spring this year. It must be b/c I am working now.

Finally

I have been walking for the past 4 days. My goal is to walk 6 days a week. For at least an hour. I have walked app. 10 miles. ( That may be way off, but that is my guess) I finally feel that I am doing something good for myself. I also have not made any more brownies, and am trying to not eat sweets at bed time. I want to do this thing 1 step at a time so it isn't such a huge shock to my system. Hopefully I will see something good coming from this. I wouldn't call it a diet that I am on, I am just trying to watch my weight. Just thought I should give an update. Not that anyone cares.

A good day

So this morning when I woke up, I really did not want to get up and get going. It took all that I had to get up start my day. And really the only thing that got me going was that I didn't want to be like my mother. My mother would have stayed in bed and called in sick to work. So I went. And it has turned out to be actually a good day. I went to work, and then as I was picking up my son from the sitters, and I sat down, and 1 thing led to the other and here it is 5 o'clock and I am still here. Hubby had to come over and fix their faucet, and here I sit. No laundry done, no dishes done, no vacuuming done. But I have had a good day. I have laughed, and just had a nice time visiting w/ my friend. We have definitely gotten things accomplished though. I will have a busy night tonight working at home.

I have a need

So I am just going to say it. I need romance. I am not just talking sex here. I am talking holding hands, that butterfly feeling, can't wait to see you kind of thing. I need that. I am totally in love w/ my husband. But I need to know that he thinks that I am pretty, that he is totally in love w/ me. I want flowers and dates, I want silly little notes, and late night conversations. I need it.
