Blog EntryLooking for motivation...Jul 2, '08 2:48 PM
for everyone

...but I think I'll never find it staring at this computer screen!

 

I need to eat.  I did, however, manage to take off those five pounds that have creeped back on over the last month or so.  Now, with 8 more to go, I'll be down to my goal weight.  WOO HOO!!!  Then again, I might have to adjust it if I still have FAT KNEES!!!  UGH!!!  To come so close but still seem so far...

 

Our pool is FINALLY ready for swimming.  I knew it would someday benefit us that David used to be a 'pool guy'...and NOT the porno kind!

*giggle*

 

I need to scrub both of my bathrooms and tackle that horrible spot on my carpet that never seems to want to go away!  But, it's 12:15 and time to get some lunch for myself and these rugrats!  Lily is a completely different dog and she barks and chases the cat and everything...and she really has a sparkle in her eye now!  YAY!

 

Have a great day, everyone!  I am grounding myself from this time-sucking computer until I've accomplished at least a FEW of things I need to around here.

 

 

Prev: Don't blink or you'll miss these!
Next: 3 pounds later...

Hi, Sweetie. I'm glad that things are going so well. And CONGRATS on losing that weight. I know you'll lose the others as well. Can you take mine with you? They don't seem to want to leave on their own.

Oh the dreaded bathroom....I hate cleaning my bathroom because I have all boys. I am actually in the middle of a protest...I told my husband that I am not cleaning around the toilet because I don't pea outside of it. I am starting to realize that he doesn't seem to care & I am probably going to be cleaning it soon. Guys are so grows sometimes...LOL

5 lbs is a big deal when you are already little. I am still trying to figure out where those other 8 are going to come from my dear. Unless you have REALLY fat 4 lbs knees or something. lol!

Kari, HI! Thank you and I would LOVE to take your weight off too, if I could! Sugar is the answer, though! In fact, I almost look at it like a 'gateway drug' for me. One cookie or piece of cake and I'm almost certain to be headed on a downward spiral of eating. And then I feel yucky and want to eat more yucky food!

Yeah, mine won't leave on their own, either!

Jolie, I don't really MIND cleaning the bathrooms...once I actually get in there! My problem is that I just keep putting if off when, in reality, it's one of the easiest rooms to clean in the house! Then again, the only boy I have is David....he's gross on his own, but at least there's only one of him!

Train those boys right! Make their future wives PROUD!!!

Shakes, our well couldn't handle the more than 7,000 gallons it would take to fill the pool, so we had to rent a truck and buy the water. We found a great deal on the water, but it was VERY DIRTY. It basically looked like MUD. After a few days of heavy filtration and lots of chemicals, the water is now crystal clear and all of the chemical levels are right where they should be!

I was a bit nervous because the pool is 52" deep and B5YO and my two younger ones are all much shorter than that! Water wings and inflatable rings and such are a WONDERFUL THING, though! And, 12YO was a lot of help as well!

You want me to clean your bathroom? I'm on my way...I'll see you in THIRTY-THREE HOURS and YOU have to buy the GAS!

Jen, did you just call me 'little?' I LOVE YOU!!! I actually DO have pretty fat knees....but they're not as bad as my thighs!

Either way, you have MADE MY DAY!!!
