Weight's same again today, I'm cool with that though!
Slowly but surely.. I did a lot of exercise yesterday,(well more than usual..not as much as some of you maniacs!!) hopefully I will today too. I walked 7 miles, did 20 minutes of boxing, 20 minutes yoga, plus weight training. My butt is sore.
I thought for sure the scale would move a smidge but no luck there. I just wanted to get to 120 even for the contest, but i will be happy with what I got I guess. If I wouldn't have backtracked I probably would already be there..but no use thinking about that i guess.
It's another pretty day to get out and walk, I am glad. Yesteday the radar said we were going to get storms possibly, but it passed us by, and there isn't another system coming until Monday, so I will be outside a lot! As soon as summer hits we will be indoors a lot more, as it gets VERY intolerably hot here in summer.
I always have to get up very early to walk in the summer, and take her out to play in the morning before it gets too bad. I am from Michigan so I am not used to that kind of heat.
Well i say that, but I HAVE lived here almost 6 years!
Dang that is hard to beleive. Hard to believe we have been married 6 years. I feel old. My taste in music is still stuck in the 80's and 90's!! I am way behind in trends, and I sometimes just feel like a shut in. Thank you GOD for my internet! That makes me sound like a nerd, but it is a lifesaver to me when I am pretty much at home all the time. i really need to get a hobby or a project of some kind going, I am starting to get a little depressed being home all the time. Cabin Fever would be putting it mildly. I haven't gone anywhere at all this week due to a flat tire and no money. On any given I am pretty much at home or at Walmart, one day a week, with an occasional visit to the dollar store if I can scrounge up enough change and can find an excuse to go. Also going to Walmart is pretty much the only thing we have done as a family in a long while, just because we don't have a lot of money. I want so bad to take Kaelyn to the zoo but we haven't had enough to spare the last few weeks to pay for the gas to get us there. :(
Our cell phone bill is killing us! It's a lot more than we thought it was going to be, and we haven't gotten anywhere near using all the minutes allowed! We gotta change that.
Dang I sound like my husband...
I don't feel like thinking about bills, I think I will obsess about my weight instead! Much more fun! ;D

Ok, I'm off to count the calories in my ice cubes...LATER!!
