Project 365 - Week 3

-
Sunday was family game night. My children and I played Life. I was losing and eventually had only $100, so my children made up new rules to help me. Wasn't that nice of them?!


Monday when my son got home from school and walked into the house the door hit him. He started punching and kicking the wall and the door. He was definately ANGRY! He said he hated school, homework, chores and the stupid door that just hit him. He wanted to just stay home and play on the computer all day, like what he did on Christmas Vacation! WOW, he was really angry?! He had a bad day at school too, his teacher said he was orange (green is the best, yellow is warning, orange is bad). This was the first time (this year) he was orange at school!

I got food down him FAST, and had him take a bath and get in his P.J.s. I spent time with him and took some pictures of him with his favorite stuffed animals. He even had me take individual pictures of each stuffed animal. We talked and he got to feeling better right away.

I learned a lesson from this......Never let my children laze around all Christmas Vacation, because it is too hard for them to get back into their normal routine.


Tuesday I worked in the field. That means I am in my car most of the day driving around. I usually drive around 140 miles when I work in the field.



Wednesday I got a text message from my sister. She mentioned our Sisters Biggest Loser Contest. I didn't know we had started, so I quickly weighed myself. Yes, I am fat. Obese is the word the doctors use. I plan on working on it this year. I started Water Aerobics, so if you want to join me just let me know, and I will tell you the days and times!


Thursday I went to a Close To My Heart (CTMH) Album Retreat, in Salt Lake City, UT. I went with my friend Nicole. Here we are with our bags full of goodies!


Friday I was still at the CTMH Album Retreat, having lost of fun. I completed 11 layouts. You can go to my scrapbook blog to see all the layouts I completed.


Saturday was the last day of the CTMH Album Retreat. We meet Jeanette Lynton, the founder and CEO of CTMH. I had a blast and plan to never miss a CTMH Album Retreat!

I am so bummed I backed out last minute to go. I was too chicken to just go by myself. lol Next year! For sure!! Its quite a sad thing to only be about an hour away and all those other ladies fly in from all over. Anyway, I will pop over to your other blog to see your creations. That is so funny you said that about your Biggest Loser challenge, I have a friend and her whole family and extended family are doing one as well. They just started it last week. Good luck with it!

Oh also, Yvonne do you know when that project 365 will be back in stock by chance? I check every day as I really wanted to do it as soon as I saw it on your blog but can't find it anywhere. Thanks!

My 1st Half Marathon of 2013!

-
Image
I ended 2012 with a GAIN (weight that is) but I started 2013 with a BANG and ran a half marathon yesterday (well 15.1 miles actually)! And my children both ran a 10K (6.2 miles). I am so proud they run with me. The race was inside the Olympic oval which was fun to see. I love my BLING (below). My next half marathon is in 19 days! It will be a FUN run and I cannot wait to run it. I ran 6 half marathons last year and I hope to run even more this year. I ran 2 miles more than a half marathon because the line to turn in the timing chip was long. Funny thing about it is my friend knew she was two laps behind me. Because I kept running so did she. She was so mad when she found out she could have stopped earlier.  After the race my daughter passed out cold. I think she is ready for a day of rest after 3 days of snowboarding and a day of running.

Fun in Florida at Walt Disney World!

My children and I spent nine days in Florida at Walt Disney World with my best friend. We had fun, but it is good to be back in the dry heat! My children and I cannot stand the humid weather! The last time I was in Walt Disney World was 15 years ago. I loved it. I decided it is far too big of a place when you have small children. Disneyland is so much better for the young ones because it is smaller.
