i know, i know, iknow!!

okay, i know it is not monday and i am supposed to check in on mondays. but i just couldn't make it happen yesterday. so here i am to tell everyone how pitful my attempt at healthy living is going. i did manage to do 10 minutes on my elliptical trainer sunday, and yesterday i ate rasin bran for two meals( it says on the back of the box you can drop ten pounds if you do this) but i made up for it with my yummy chicken dijon last night for supper. yum!! lots of pasta and french bread, can't beat it. :-)
i really wanted to lose my ten pounds before we went to the allison krauss concert but i don't think it is possible now.oh well. kenny is so excited about this concert he is telling me everyday before bed how many days are left. i don't think he would notice if i gained ten pounds before it. he is a very happy camper these days. he drove to work today in hilda honda. he will go at three and get her inspected and then try to get her tags before he has to come home. She is almost as good as new, very shiny,new tires, new stereo and speakers, and the windshield sprayer thingys are working so no more windex bottle out the window! The best thing of all is that she smells awesome inside. he really outdid himself on this project.
i am trying a new family schedule today. after watching super nanny last night i decided it was much needed to help with the consistency she says we need to help with hope. the naughty stool really helps alot so maybe this will be the thing to get some of my sanity back.if it doesn't help i am going to send in a video and try to get on the show. let super nanny try to deal with her for a while!
so by the schedule my computer time is over. this may really suck! i will let you know how it goes next week.

monday

this has been a long long long day and i am so tired! I began my day by moving beds out so carpet could go in and ended my day by moving beds back in! i won't go into the details of what went on in between but lets just say hope was in high gear and never got to take a nap.
it wasn't pretty!
i would definatly count today as a work out day even though it wasn't on my elliptical.
i did okay with my food today and my water intake. will try to keep going tomorrow.

our valentine's was celebrated on friday. kenny got a big gold star in his crown for my surprise!
diamonds are a girls best friend!
i did ask him if i would have to wait 13 more years for the next one. :-)

church on sunday was awesome! everything sounded great, despite colds,headaches, and sore throats! the band was great the sermon was great and everything seemed to flow really well for a change. i am ready for more of the same!

mom you already know my favorite memory of hilda honda. it is definatly not when i was in labor with mike and going 113mph to liberal. it trully is a wonder that he took so long to come out after that trip!

monday morning

Okay girls, I really blew it last week. I am using my illness as my excuse and am on a mission to do better this week. Nothing in my closet fits right and it is making me crazy!
Today I am going to Stark to paint for mom so I will get back to my workouts tomorrow. I hope you all had better weeks.

Mike's team had thier first loss this weekend to Drexel. The score 51-12 was pretty hard for them to take, but it hasn't made him want to quit. He is determined to do better next week.
He did tell me last week that he has" been thinking of doing homeschool again next year"
HA! Over my dead body! I sometimes have a hard time keeping myself from running out to the bus and kissing the bus driver when she gets here in the morning!
