Self Challenge!

So I bought the magazine “Self” this past week and noticed that they have this thing called a “Self Challenge”. So I’m doing it. It looks fun and it can help you lose weight. They customize meal and workout plans for you and it’s FREE. So yeah. And it even makes a shopping list for you so  you don’t have to read the recipes and right down the ingredients. I’m excited. I am actually going to wait and start my meal plan NEXT week because we are moving into the new house this week and it’s pointless for me to go and buy a ton of groceries that will just be left here at my dad’s house. 

Anyway…Lil P is up so I don’t have time to write much more. I went out and purchased tons of birthday gifts for M and I really hope he likes them. His birthday was yesterday and Lil P’s birthday is tomorrow! Lil P is having a party on Saturday so that will be exciting. Especially since we will be in the new house then!!!! Ahhhh I can’t wait!!!! I’m trying to take off work on Tuesday so I can move everything then, but I don’t think it’s going to work out that way. I hope it does, but who knows. I am going to show M the challenge and I hope he decides to do it with me so I don’t have to fix seperate dinners every night!

I Just Want A Shower

Honestly, is that so much to ask for? I think not, especially when I have been running around all day trying to get everything done and make everyone happy. Eh, what can you do. I suppose that is my new, third job now. Being a full time pharmacy technician and a full time mom just wasn’t enough. I did get to enjoy a half hour of being outside in the gorgeous weather, playing basketball with a neighbor’s five year old child. He was actually decent to my surprise!

Tomorrow is Monday and I (thankfully) have the day off. This will make the fourth day in a row, but alas, I work Tuesday through Saturday then Sunday must drive 6 hours to Charlotte, NC for a memorial service on…Memorial Day. Hopefully I do get to relax, even for a few hours on Sunday by going to Carowinds. It will most like rain on my parade (literally) because rain is now the new sun apparently. I believe Northern Virginia is going to be the next Seattle very soon.

Today has just been depressing all around. Right now I’m still in the sweaty clothes that I played basketball in about 5 hours ago. I’m itchy, stinky, and I need to shave my legs. My boyfriend has decided to go to a friends house and leave me alone with my 10 week old, so there is really no chance of me even thinking about a shower until he gets home. The baby is sleeping now, but he has proven to me that if I actually try to do something that is louder than typing on a keyboard, he gets upset and for some reason, wants to eat. So the shower will unfortunetely have to wait until midnight (or later…if it’s much later the boyfriend and I will be having a little “chat” when he gets home) or tomorrow…(god forbid).

I’m in the writing mood for some reason, but really have nothing to write about. I know I’m usually positive and upbeat but it’s just not happening today. I don’t know what it is really. Something in the air? Maybe the water? Who knows…hopefully I get out of this funk soon. I think it’s mostly because I am still “fat” from the pregnancy. By no means am I overweight, but I am still about 20 lbs heavier than what I was before I got pregnant. I was hoping to shed those by June, but it looks like that is not going to happen. I’ve toned down the eating a lot though…and I’m only drinking diet soda. I hope it works. Well, I am going to go…GET A SHOWER!! YAY.
