Not so good...

That's what my head tells me I am feeling like. It hit me like a brickwall yesterday. Either it is a cold or I am allergic to whatever blew in yesterday. My little Viking, is also sniffely, and still sleeping, which is unusual for the little guy.
So needless to say, today will be a day, where there shall be no housework getting done, much sitting on the couch watching tv and snuggle with the little guy. Since he is not going to school today.
Maybe watching firefly??? Cause I can't watch Serenity, since my friend has my copy for 3weeks now. I hope she actually watched it.
Maybe I can finish another pair of felted clogs. That would be great.

Oh and I got the yummies Yarn yesterday from my secret Pal, it is a silk, cotton, wool blend in Tangerine, and it screams at me to become a nice tank top. So we will see. But I also need to finish Erin, for my friend.

what a day I had

First take the kids to school, then back home to get showered and dressed, then back to school to help with Dinosaur school projects, Kindergarterners are cute, but not today. LOL
Then I wanted to go to the Grocery store, well that didn't happen, cause hubby talked me into coming to lunch with him. Big mistake, good thing the place had a salad bar, or I would have left starving. My food was not at the table 20mins after we ordered, and the guys were already done. Finally I told them to pack it up and give me a discount. Sure enough got it half off, I had to leave to pick up the little monster from Preschool. So after that we went to the grocers, and came home with new StarWars Figures. ( how did that happen? )
Then I just had time to put away the food and run thru the house with the Vacuum, before the big monster came home with the bus, and we had a play date. They all had fun, destroying the house.
Then at Hubby comes home, we go to Gym. Worked out, Cardio for 40mins. Then home eating Dinner, get kids bathed and tucked in. Now I have a bit time, before I have to tie ribbons on Frames for the PTA. Then I am going to draw a bath and soak for a bit, and then sleepies.

Oh Switzerland got 2 Gold Medals today for a total of 13 Medals. Not bad for a country with 7.5 Million People. HOPP SCHWYZ!!!!!!!

well...

Superbowl was not as healthy as I thought. I really tried, but the Queso was just too good.

Today is Wednesday and I need to clean the house. It is not dirty, but it needs to be vacuumed and mopped and such.

This afternoon, I am hoping to sit down and get to watch some of the shows I DVR and knit, I am going to try and get going on Eris again.

That's it for now.

a healthy Superbowl????

Ok, so we are having a superbowl party and I am not so sure I can stay on my meal plan. I am trying really hard. I promised myself. I know I am not going to have a drink since I had a drink on friday and yesterday. So I am having a veggie Tray, corn, Steve is grilling Chicken for me, since I am not going to eat the Ribs. I am making German Potato Salad, which is mostly broth, vinegar and such, but it has bacon in it. So I am going to try and avoid that. I am also having a green Salad and Cucumber Salad Ready and hope to eat some of that. Anyways, I'll let you guys know later how it goes.

Tallies for January...

Well January gone by and I made a lot of changes in my life. I am trying to eat better, I am working out 5 days a week, I try to play more with the kids and just be a better person all around.

For the month of January, I have knitted two pairs of felted slippers and that's it. LOL not much there.

On the weight loss front.



I wasn't to happy with this result at first but then we measured this morning. And I have lost 12" all over. I lost 1/4" on my neck, 1" on my chest, 2.5" on my waist, 3" on my hips, 4" on my thigh and 1/2" on my calf. I could not believe that when I was told. So this is what is going to keep me going for February.
