This is my journal, as a 37 year old mom of two, that tries to balance, family and every thing else, life trows at me.

my valentine

Anika came into the room, and stuck her homemade card under my nose at 6:40am. Very sweet, then Lars gave me one as well and they both gave the small boxes of Chocolate to their Dad. Then I gave them their Valentines.
Anika went off to school and I made breakfast for Steve, Lars and I. I then went grocery shopping, and afterwards to the gym, worked out. Then my friend brought her son, so she could go and have lunch with her hubby. I went home, made lunch, and Steve came home as well. Then we argued about something stupid and silly which ruined my whole mood for Valentines.
Steve took off most of the afternoon, and right as I got ready to get Anika, a delievery truck brought me a beautiful bouquet of Tulips. I love tulips, they are my favorties. Big points for hubby there. So I spend the afternoon sitting in front of a gas station selling Girl Scout Cookies. By five Anika and I were frozen solid so we went home. I had Choir practice at 6:30 so I left again. Then after Choir I called Chili's to pick up dinner, and while waiting I went to Central Market to get a bottle of wine and dessert. Then home and Steve had set the table with Candles and everything, we enjoyed a very nice evening together, with no kids. It was so romantic.

Study woes

So I am working on getting certified as a trainer. Long story short the Biology part of this is Killing me. I sat down yesterday and figured out that I need to do two study chapters a day to get done by the deadline in March. So if you have any mojo left send it my way please.

I skimmed thru the program design part and that looks pretty easy, cause I've been working with a trainer that has this certification and I did the workshop in September.
But learning how and why a muscle contracts and which muscle is where that is the hard part for me.

Well I guess the only thing I can do, is bite the bullet and jump in with both feet.

Other than that things are well here. The kids are not sick, both are great. Anika sang the school song this morning at assembly. And Lars is hooked on playing STar Wars lego on the Cube. It's not much fun to play with him, cause he never goes where you wanna go. LOL

I am almost back into my old workout routine. I am doing cardio 5x week and I am slowly adding my weight training back in. I am really sore from all the squats I've been doing. I also cleaned up my diet again. So hopefully by June I am going to be at Goal weight.
