Long weekend coming to an end

I need to take a break from cleaning my bedroom and putting away clothes. I've been folding clothes and putting clothes away since about noon so I desperately need a break. I wanted to get rid of old pajamas and tshirts since I have a serious accumulation of them. I just bought some new pajamas for the holidays because J.C. Penny's had a great sale. So I've been in here all day watching television and folding clothes. I have mostly all of the laundry done just some towels and sheets left. I cannot believe how fast Thanksgiving vacation went! I love my job but I'm not looking forward to going into work tomorrow. Its nice to spend time at home and just relax. I got a lot of crocheting done and even watched a few movies. That is one thing I really would like to do more. I'd like to watch more movies. I really need to make good use of my Netflix account.

On the weight front, I bought WiiFit Plus which I actually really like. I have been maintaining weight but it really is making me mad because I need to lose!! I really need to incorporate some more exercise into my busy schedule. I think the reason I lost considerable pounds (mind you it was 6 lbs) during the summer was due to walking on a regular basis. I really need to make time to go for walks and drink water when I think I'm hungry. The hot tea works during the day but when I get home is the issue. I also need to make a better commitment to eating breakfast in the morning. I've gotten into an awful habit of sleeping in till about 7:30ish so that I'm rushing to get out the door in time for work. I really should be getting up closer to 6:30-7, so that I have time to make sure I have a good breakfast and lunch made.

Here's to Monday.

Christmas and fingertips

So parent teacher conferences went well and now its Thanksgiving Break. Where the heck did the time go?? Seriously, next week is December already. I'm looking forward to decorating the house for Christmas on Friday. We're going to put up the real Christmas tree and not use our decorative plant as one. We have an artificial Christmas tree but last year we decorated the artificial decorative tree as our tree.

I got fingertip grips put in my bowling ball and had a good night. I bowled a 178, 217, and 177. My average is a 165 so that means it will be a 167 next week. This is the highest that my average has been. So hopefully it stays up because I need something to aspire to athletically since its the only competitive sport that I play in the winter.

Well I think its time to go relax on the couch or in the Cozy Sac or even quite possibly in bed to read a book before getting some sleep.... good news though.... NO SCHOOL TOMORROW!

Loving Sunday

Sunday again... I love Sundays.

I'm sitting on the couch, listening to music and crocheting. It is so relaxing. Just laying around in pjs and doing NOTHING. I mean, of course I'm doing laundry but I mean nothing constructive like housework, lol. The house is pretty much ok right now, and I'm going to do some straightening up on Wednesday because I have the day off as part of my Thanksgiving Break.

Jonathan is FINALLY hanging our television on the wall. We've only wanted to do it since we moved in. I'm looking forward to putting up my Christmas tree soon. I really want to decorate this year and make the place look holidayish. I just can't believe that Christmas is coming so quickly! I'm a little bummed that Jonathan is going to be in Florida for longer than we originally planned but if the house looks Christmasey, it'll make me feel a bit better.

Well, I'm going to go back to the blanket because it is supposed to be one of Jonathan's Christmas present (from 3 years ago).

The Point of Breaking

You know that point of stress where you either are going to break or be ok.... well it is fast approaching..... there are so many things going on around me and I feel so much burden on my shoulders that I'm getting to that point.... I know God doesn't give you more than you can handle but I feel like lately he's given me quite the load........aaagh.

Disappointment

I am so freaking disappointed in myself. I was doing so well for a well with the weight thing. But I weighed in at Curves today and had to pay at Biggest Loser for work. I gained.... I really need to get this under control

And its Sunday again

It is Sunday again and here I sit wondering where the weekend went. I did have a nice weekend but it definitely went by too fast.

Today we went on a trip to Sam's Club. We probably spent more money than we should but at least we didn't deviate to far from the list we brought.

I need to get back on path with the fitness and exercise. The wedding is 251 days away and I want to make sure I'm not a blimp floating down the aisle but rather a fit young woman. I've just been so lazy lately. I'm not getting sleep and the sleep I'm getting sucks. I think a lot of it had to do with me staying up late to watch the Yankees. Now that the series is over, and thankfully they won, I should really get more sleep and get in a better sleep---->wake pattern.

Well, I have to go check on the laundry because I'm determined to finish the laundry today. It is just amazing to me that I can never get ahead of it. We have no kids it shouldn't be this hard!

I also am hoping to get a bath in today. I haven't had a candlelit bubble bath in a while and think that is just what I need tonight.

On another note, Bert didn't come home today :( Hopefully he can come home tomorrow.....

Almost Breathing

My grandpa had surgery on Monday and so far so good. He should be able to come home either tomorrow or Friday.

Last night I went to bed at 8:30 and it was great. But its pretty frustrating when you wake up and could still use a few more hours. I wonder if I'll ever catch up. Hopefully once baseball season is finished I'll have a better sleep schedule. It is currently 11:30pm and I'm awake watching the Yankee Game. Its game 6 of the World Series and the Yankees are winning 7-3 in the bottom of the ninth inning. Three more outs to go.

Well, hopefully the Yanks win and then I get to go to bed.....
