I noticed the message light was lit on the dvr, so I looked, thinking it would be the usual message about a new HD channel or whatever, so I went to read it, and wanted that annoying red light gone. It said that exercise tv is now on the on demand. lol So seriosuly, I have no excuses. I peeked at it, and there are tons of different choices, some for 10 or 20 minutes. Perfect! Now if I can fit that into my long list of things to do at naptime. I think I’ll try it today. Hopefully I won’t hurt myself.. no seriously. I haven’t exercised in forever. I did get on the scale this morning, and have my official start weight for today: 230.5. I’m ashamed of that, really. I didn’t want to actually type the number out, but I did, and hope to make that number smaller. Hopefully today will be as nice as the weatherman said it will be, and we will be able to go play outside after lunch. 

I feel like, as a Mother, I have to put my daughter first. But, in my attempts to always worry about her well being, I’ve put myself last. Since she started eating “real” foods I’ve always tried to make sure she eats decent, with fruits and veggies, limiting her sugar, etc. So why is it that I eat junk? Today, I’ve decided, I’m going to start eating better. I’m going to start eating 3 meals a day, since I’m bad about skipping meals. I need to take care of myself, I think she would want me to. I’m thinking I’ll weigh in tomorrow morning, and make it a weekly thing- the hardest thing is remembering to do it when I wake up. The good news is, the clothes I’m wearing, I wore before I got pregnant with my daughter, so no pregnancy weight leftover, but the bad news is  that before I got pregnant I was trying to lose weight, so I’m back where I started pretty much. I’d like to lose quite a bit of weight and feel better overall. Won’t you take this journey with me?

Coupon is good today only, hopefully someone can get some use out of it.

I’ve aways hear such horror stories of the “terrible two’s” My daughter is 26 months, and though she is often quite moody, most of the time she is so lovey, saying I love you all day long. I will admit she can change like a switch, from miss moody to miss nice, in an instant, with no warning. I consider myself lucky to have her every single day.

On a totally different subject, we have our usual tv shows we have set on the dvr, and we watch the oldest first. We watched an episode of Supernanny, I’m thinking it was a week or 2 ago. I can’t get this family out of my head. Those kids. One of the most disturbing parts of it was when he had the life size pictures of his children out in the backyard, and was throwing darts at them. Seriously. Mainly at their little faces. He threw them over and over, until each child had 5 or 6 darts in their face, on the pictures. I just can’t see how he could or would want to do that. Sure, we all get frustrated at times with our childen, and I only have one, but to go so far as to do that? I’m a little speechless. Did anyone else see that episode? What did you think about it?

I’m trying to do this week’s menu a little early, it’s usually on Sunday mornings, but I thought I’d get a jump start on it tonight. Here’s what I have so far;

chili & grilled cheese sandwiches

baked ziti & garlic bread

chicken strips & mixed veggies

pork chops & mac & cheese

Hmm.. what else sounds good when it’s so cold outside?

I’m not sure why, I’m not feeling very motivated to list things on Ebay right now. I have lots in my store, and a few auctions, but I’m really getting tired of some of the buyers I’ve been getting. They want to pay when they feel like it, even if it takes 2 weeks, but they want to box on their doorstep as soon as they click the pay now button. I’m hoping the USPS doesn’t cut out another delivery day, like they were talking about doing, because that will only slow it down more, and since I don’t work for the post office, like buyers must think I do, I’ll be stuck.
