Failure

WOW! THAT was fast! You bet it was! I worked out on Friday afternoon, only to have Husband make fun of me when he came in and I was trying to work out.....oh, PLUS I weighed myself this morning....back up to the same poundage I was....life is beginning to suck in the working out/being athletic department.

First things first, I have done that Jillian 30 minute shred thing three times, my knees hurt for two days afterwards after each time. I'm not that heavy, but something about my knees isn't as forgiving as it used to be.

Saturday was filled with getting myself and the kids ready for my nephew's birthday party. Husband's assistance included getting the kid's shoes and hats on......my list consisted of waking up, taking out my neighbor's dogs, feeding the kids breakfast, feeding the dog, bathing the kids, giving the kids lunch, doing the dishes, playing with the kids, giving the kids lunch, putting both kids down for a nap (a very short nap), showering myself (fast - I may say), going next door again to let the dogs out, drying my hair over there as to not wake the sleeping kids .....in the mean time, Husband comes home from work, sits down on the couch......and rests.....and rests....I run back upstairs, finish getting dressed, put on makeup, wake up kids, gather clothing, dress them......you get the picture no? We're 45 minutes late to the party.....

The party was actually funner than they've been in the past. When you've got the youngest children at the party, everybody wants to pick them up.....up the stairs, at the top of the stairs, on the wood floor, on the furniture, etc. We were constantly on 'kid watch' (both ours and neices and nephews). It's not the other kids' fault, since they don't have younger siblings, or very young siblings....they don't understand being 'gentle'. I found myself being able to enjoy the party and my brothers a little more....doesn't take much though....

I was dead Sat. night, but still had to go next door to let the dogs out before the night was over, I kept falling asleep and Husband woke me after the kids watched a show. Note he didn't offer to go next door himself..... ::eye roll:: So I survived and let the dogs out at 10:00 pm and back to my couch where I watched SNL til 11:00 pm and wandered into bed around 1:30 am.....oh the exciting life I lead.

So needless to say, I didn't get much done on the working out schedule. And on Sunday I had no desire to be picked on by Husband. So I hope to get a double workout in today and head back to using neighbor's elliptical trainer machine.....

Handsome's party has been moved to a week before his actual birthday, with upcoming procedures on both myself and Handsome, he wouldn't have gotten a party until the end of April, and that's just not fair.....I took many horrible pictures trying to get one for his invitation.....No such luck today....

This was one of the best I got.....



Cute, but the boy doesn't look 'happy'......

Tomorrow is another day.....
