A new leaf

As of tomorrow I'm going to turn over a new leaf!! (I really wanted to do it on Tuesday, but it's always best to start something at the beginning of the week or month)  My goal is not going to lose a certain number of pounds, because all scales are basters and lie to you!

But rather gain this:

And it's not going to be to fit into a certain number on a tag inside my pants, because that is complete Bull Shit too ..... that changes with the color of fabric!!

Honestly this is me every morning:

and I hate it!!!  So I get one of these:

 

 and it turns into this:

Sorry.....I Googled a pound of FAT

And results are this:

*not a complete true story, but I had to add some "drams" to my blog*

UGH!!  I hate it!!  So that 's why I'm going to change!  I need to! Emily and I have been measuring ourselves since January of last year and on Sunday I measured my thighs, hips and waist - 1 inch everywhere!!! ONE INCH....that's 4 inches!!  I've thought about diet pills, but since I'm convinced (because seriously every other day I hear of someone who went to the dr for something small and came out with cancer) that I probably have cancer floating around in my body and opt not.

WTF is my excuse now......

• People say water aerboics are great....Um I have pool, do you think I ever once exercised or swam laps-NOOOooo
• I have so many workout DVDs that Jillian Micheals herself sent me a membership card (not really, but I'm sure it's on it's way)
• I don't have to be at work until 10 am, therefore I really don't have to start getting ready until 8:00 am, so why can't I get up by at least 6:00 ?!?!?!
• I have 2 dogs who LOVE to walk
• I have a kid who LOVES walks
• I have 2 dogs so I can walk at night (because their protect me....by licking the attacker to death)

So that's that.....I'm F'd up in the head thinking I'm 300 lbs, so maybe I should make an appt with a therapist instead getting up at 6:00 am and live off Frappes!  Ummmm, I'll keep you updated on what I decide!!  =)

Hey There

So.....I'm back on Facebook  and honestly I'm bored with it already!  Matt keeps saying he's going to get a can of dip now...but I really hope not!

The Weekend:

The fireman's picnic.....this weekend used to be the highlight of my summer, but not really anymore and espeically with a kid!!! 

Friday: I was so ready and excited to take Brody to his 1st picnic and we debated on whether or not he would like the rides....because one time walking out of Wal Mart we put him on the elephant and he freaked!! First I went to go buy tickets and was already pissy about the price - $2 for a ride that goes for MAYBE 2 mins!!  We put him on the cars and he LOVED it!  When it stopped he did his sign for "more".....precious!  So he had to get off and he threw a fit!!  We moved over to the big blow up slide.  I ask 
Me: "how many tickets"
Carney: "2 (aka $2)"
Me: "How many times does he get to go down?"
Carney: "once" 
You have got to be kidding me!!!  $2 for a slide!!  WTF.....so I walked up the slide with him and sent him down-loved it again and threw a fit AGAIN!!  Needless to say I had a very stressful night and spent $40!!!  ugh....never again!!

Saturday: After Brody went to bed super late on Friday I thought for sure he would sleep in....NOPE-up at 6:00.  So I took him and the dogs on a walk and by 9:00 he was horribly tired and super crappy.  Did someone say "morning nap!?!?!"  Him and I both slept until noon!  I rented Matt and I a movie "The Switch" - it was GOOD!!!

Sunday: Brody got his pictures taken with his cousin Chole in Sparta and they turned out so good!  You can check them out HERE (email me for the password)  After that Brody and I went to the parade....he loved it and was only really scared of the people dressed up.  He LOVED the bands....he was clapping and marching! 

Confessions

I confess that when I have to do errands at work I get my 1000+ calorie Starbucks Frappe first so I'm done with it before I go back to work, so no one knows I drink 1000+ calorie Starbucks Frappes! 

I confess that coupons don't save me money they make me buy stuff!  Example: I had a $1.50 huggies little swimmer coupon from Huggies & Target....save $3.00 I should buy them!!  BUT.....I don't' need them because Brody has a reusable swim diaper.

I confess that I love to spend $$!  I don't even care if it's toilet paper.....I like to buy stuff!!

I confess that I spanked Brody this morning and really feel bad about it.  I don't want to spank him (not that I think poorly of anyone who does spank their kids), but I don't hit my dogs to discipline then so why would I want to do it to my kid?!?!  I was on my swiss ball doing sit ups with a weight and he came on top of me and pulled my hair (those little hairs on your hairline)  It hurt so F'n bad!!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend and hope you see you a the good 'ole Fireman's parade!! 

Legally Blonde

I went to the Muny last night to see this:

It was the BEST musical I've ever seen!! 

Almost 2 weeks....WITH PICS

....good lord I haven't blogged in almost 2 weeks (hope I still have followers)

Here's what's been going on in a nutshell:

The concrete project is DONE!!!

Josh did that design free handed 

 

Brody's farm SLIDESHOW is DONE too!

I caught the lil princess of the house bathing by the pool.....

I surprised my mom with THIS this last week (She's only been asking me to make one for about 6 months now) It was great...Tuesday when she came over I had Brody bring out the book for her to "read"  Of course she cried, so I know she loved it!  I wasn't too impressed with Snapfish, tho.  It was hard to fit the pictures in the layouts.  I wish I could have made my own layouts!  Oh well, I'm still happy with it!

Brody kept going back and forth from the dog basket to his toy box and I was wondering what the heck he was doing....

Poor kid needs some blocks I think!!!

Other than that.....not much going on!  I planned my first all employee meetings last week and it went off without a hitch!!
