How busy we are.....

I decided last night that we are just too busy now a days in society. I t seems that as grownups we are always running back and forth from one task to another one. I think life was much less complicated when I was a teenager and the only thing I had to worry about was getting to school on time.

I went to Office Depot today and drooled over the planners. I don't know what it is about this time of the year and planners but man, I want one. Now the one that I have is perfectly fine for the rest of the year and I don't always use the planner that I have but when I see the brand new ones I want one. They have turquoise, salmon, leather, bonded leather, pleather, paper, graphics, plain...it's like sensory overload. I just cant go back in there until July or I will cave.

what a day....

Today was a BUSY day for me. I was at work at 6:30 ONLY because I had tons of work to do. I get to work and there is absoutely no work for me to do because I don't have a key to my supervisors office AND I also can't get online still from my new computer. So, I got to have a few minutes to redo paperwork.

Then, off to school for Aimee to see her new school. Of course, $200 later in deposits, she decided she likes it. Glad she does, private school is expensive.

Before I left work today, I finally got internet. It's been almost 6 weeks since I started my new job and my computer had been ordered forever. It finally arrived and I am good to go.


Lets see, Aimee had to get 4 shots today for school. She had her polio shot's when she was less than 3 years old and Arkansas has some dumb law that states that you have to have your last polio shot after you are 4. I had already told her that she was only going to get 2 but then she had to get 4. Darrell said it was awful and they had to hold her down. She is always so scared and it's always hard to get shots at her age.

Well, off to a ball game! Last tee ball game tonight!

Hit my goal!

I started losing weight about 2 years ago. I would work at it very good for a while and then I would stop. I kept doing this for a while but these past 3 months I decided to buck up and go for it.

So, I weighed today and I have hit my first mini goal!!! I have lost 40 pounds! I am so excited. I went to the store today and bought 2 new dresses. It was so nice to be able to not have to go to the plus sizes.

I am not eating as much as I have in the past. I still struggle with the fruits and water because I don't have much of an appetite. I still go work out about 4-5 times a week for 45 minutes to an hour. I need to do more strength training but I don't really like to do that so I haven't been doing it much.

We booked a cruise for December and my next goal is to be 20 pounds lighter. That gives me about 6 months to lose 20 more pounds. I can do it!
