Geez Louise

It's been 2 months & 1 day since my last post - surprised I still have followers , BUT I have kept up with all of your posts & pics via my phone - hence the lack of comments blc sometimes the fancy iPhone it's retarded.

So here's a quick catch up post: (sorry for the lack of pictures....I decided to start blogging again while in traffic this morning)

My Garden:  I have produce!!  Not everything I planted grew, but so far I've harvested (yes I really feel like a farmer) green beans, cilantro and lettuce.  I have a TON of baby zucchini's growing, tomato plants (did you know they now make cute colored tomato cages!??! Well, they do and I have bright blue ones to match the pool), cauliflower, broccoli and peppers.



It's half way thru 2012, so let's check in on those resolutions I made:

  • Run the whole thing:  I sign up and participate in about 5 races every year and besides the Santa Hustle a few weeks back, I haven't ran the whole race since the Halloween 10k in October 2010!!  This year....I'm going to run the whole race - every race!
So far so good....I ran the whole 5 mile St Patty's Day run 2 min faster than my goal....next up Susan G Koman (haven't ran that whole course since....um....2008), then the Color Run in August, then the Halloween 10k, THEN.....the HALF in October
  • Pre Brody Weight: I'm a big slacker....I'm the first to admit it-I really don't like to exercise and still like to snack and eat shitty like I did when I was 17!!! But, this year I'm going to get down or below the weight I was when I got pregnant with Brody.  Just for the record....that's 10 + or - pounds.
Work in progress....Matt and I joined Weight Watchers online on May 8th (um almost a month) and I've only lost 4 lbs...NOT because WW doesn't work, because I cheat ALL.THE.TIME. Still working on it....I have another 6 months!  =)
  • Better Mother and Wife: I really hate to confess this (its not even Friday) but sometimes I act like Kate Gosslin.  I freak out over messes and when things don't go as planned, so this year I'm really REALLY going to try to be a little calmer.  This by far is going to be the hardest one for me!
Still Kate Gosslin....sorry people in my life! 
  • Baby #2: I'm going to THINK about getting off the pill (FYI: it'll probably be way later in 2012...like probably November-ish).
The way Mr Broster has been acting lately this will happen closer to December 31st at 11:59p until I THINK about it. I can roll over resolutions, right!?!?
  • Potty Training: well, duh.....yes I'm already this, but Mr. Brody isn't!  He will be in 2012 though!
We have the peeing down pretty good....but the poops - ugh, I'm running out of underwears blc I throw them away instead of washing them.  It's easier to just cut the underwear off then pull them down then wash their leg - OK I'll stop there, I'm grossing myself out.
  • J.O.B.: My goal is to find another job that I absolutely love - like when I was at WCG (if that is possible)
SUCCESS: Oh the relieve of having a job I love again.  I'm working at World Wide Technology in Westport and couldn't be happier.  It wasn't an easy road...I interviewed 4 times with 6 different people all while still working for the Prada's. I sit in the lovely 270 traffic for about 45-60 mins everyday, but it's totally worth being in a healthy work environment again. 

P.S. Heather, I'll be hitting you up for a new look....Brody's 2 1/2 pics will be ready soon!

1. On the phone, while driving. I'm upset! Didn't you know that texting/blogging while driving causes more deaths than drinking and driving......


2. Now that you say it, you totally remind me of KG. Haha, I love you!!!

3. Do you realize we are never going to be able to go out again if you start 'trying' at the end of the year!?

4. I'm gonna help you with the PT thing. I'm a pro now!!
