finally friday!!

yikes! for a short week it sure seemed to take forever to get over.. maybe b/c my productivity level is almost @ a negative value?! last night is the first night this week that I've lasted past 9pm. eek!! I have a HUGE list to try to accomplish @ nap time today.. WE WILL SEE. this morning I am just hoping to get the reminants of the kleenex monster (it looks like a monster has a cold) cleaned up down here, some things sanitized that haven't been & maybe, just maybe, get to the grocery store.

my weekend will consist of setting up, cropping, tearing down, eating, & chatting, w/some sneezing & blowing thrown in for good measure LOL maybe I should include hand sanitizer in their goodie bags LOL

ok.. off & running.....

on the mend

Still excited for the crop this weekend!! I started shopping for it Saturday on the way home from training :) so fun!! just need to get to Creston to get some more goodies!! going to have to start Scrap pink earlier this year LOL

checking my lists to be sure all the last minute stuff is close to being done so when I have less germy hands I can do them :)

TGIF!

I am fighting a bit of a headache today UGH- took some ibu + drinking detox tea so hopefully something will kick it!! :)

I AM SO PUMPED for this crop!!! we decided last night to use some of mom's luau decorations :) so I am now looking for inexpensive goodies luau themed too LOL Sunday is FULL & ONLY 4 spots left for Saturday!! I am going to start shopping this weekend!! WHOHOOOOOOOOO the menu is basic & decided, the goodies are yet to be decided, but the rules are out there & the money is coming in YAY!

this weekend I am hoping for more down time than is planned! we have to grocery shop & I have a training while he has a side job to start tomorrow. then we are hoping to go to the flower/plant show in DM on Sunday. looks like a good weekend to be inside w/all the rain we are expecting YUCK! I am so ready to get in the garden & get these flower beds from my head to my yard!!

APPRECIATE: I appreciate my job for many reasons-not having to go out in icky weather, getting computer time thru out the day, getting to set my own rules & hours(even tho I threw them into a tailspin today w/a newsletter announcing a shorter closing time but that's my right), 'able to work' can be lower than a coorporate job level, can eat (not always a benefit) when I am hungry, get to go outside during the day (weather permitting). I appreciate people who read the whole newsletter b4 bringing me questions. I appreciate scrapbookers.

ACCOUNTABILITY: I did 30 fit minutes last night! I scored in the top 10 on ALL BUT ONE! pretty good for only being on 2x in the last 35 days LOL I got 3 servings of f/v & 80oz in!!!!! great day! :)

It has taken me 3 sitting 'sessions' to get this sucka typed up LOL so I am going to give up & go be more attentive :) maybe they'll let me color w/them.. if not then I'll try the ones playing w/the cars ... have a great weekend!!

not so hot

ugh-I am not feeling so great all of a sudden! :( I cannot be getting sick! I won't let it! I am on antibiotics-they are a cure all-RIGHT??? I'm just going to blame it on the ribs being out. :) yea yea that's it. on to a random list:


  • I have 4 spots taken for Saturday's crop
  • I have 7! spots taken for Sunday's crop
  • I hope to get 10 for each day so we can afford goodie bags & meals
  • I am shortening my work days by 30 minutes as of June1! so excited
  • I am hoping the wind yday dried out the back yard b/c we will be out there today
  • I need to get breakfast going
  • I need to lay down for a bit but breakfast will come first-Promise!
  • I need to make Tim a chiro appt (I already have one for next Wed)
  • I got my 5 servings in yesterday :) 2 strawberries, 2 bananas, 1 corn
  • I barely got 40oz of water down but did get 16oz of detox tea
  • I didn't get on the wii -again I think I'll only report it if I do it :)

ok enough about me-get on w/the day ;)

and this is my reasoning for...

the 24 hour rule!! I have a total of 4 missing today due to others bringing their children b4 the 24 hr rule was over! I am so glad I got the cc aired out yesterday -going to bleach everything plastic & wash everything cloth today OYE! this is rediculous!

the weekend was productive!! amoxil from the dr since I have been fighting this for 2 weeks, dishwasher for upstairs ordered, fence added to, safety precaution on deck stairs started, gate fixed, a couple of scrap items bought, cc books bought for curriculum, fun time w/friends, quality time w/Tim & naps taken :)

SPRING FLING-the first paid registration is IN!!! only 4 more days to get the rest in! then I will be able to decide what I can afford to for food & goodie bags. :)

APPRECIATE- those that DON'T wait until the due date for things-makes me nervousLOL, amoxil & the dr that listened, the comfy couch I was stuck on Saturday evening &yesterday afternoon :)

ACCOUNTABILITY-(Friday)over 5 servings, 40oz water, 16oz detox tea, no fit time. (Saturday) 3 servings, 40oz water, no fit time. (Sunday)3 servings, 40oz water, 10oz detox tea, no fit time.

OK... so I am off to sanitize, sort & fling today! my productivity level should soar w/only 2 so far & only 2 more expected! YIKES!! look OOOOOOOOOOOOOOUT!!!!

T.G.I.F!!!

wowza.. I had no idea how tired I was until I went to read last night & was asleep by 9 LOL
we are looking for another great weather day today here so there will be another walk in store!!
then hopefully finishing my QRS paperwork! I got all the copies I needed from the nurse yesterday.

I got to email 2 & deliver 3 more registrations for SPRING FLING yesterday!! wow when they all come in we will be over ful!! good thing some are just reserving one day. :) I am really excited to fill the room soI can feel more confident about stepping up my plans for SCRAP PINK!

this weekend is jampacked. tonight hosting wii-fest, tomorrow all day training in creston (backyard adventures-fun!), then buzzing off for surprise party, then Sunday will be recooperating!! looking fwd to it all! :)

I got the disk & card back from the photo shop yesterday & there are 15 usable images on both but 192 images on my sd card... very frustrating to see them on the camera but not get them to transfer.. i was way better off thinking they were gone & lost forever LOL

yesterday was alot busier than I realized until now when I list it all LOL

5in5- I didn't do so good yesterday I only got 2.5 servings in -tator tots(.5 serving) for breakfast, corn +romaine (1.5 serving) for lunch, banana for snack (1). CORRECTED to count right: breakfast .5, lunch 2.5, snack 2=5!!! I did it!! (just didn't know how to count them LOL)
so I am starting strong today: 32 oz of apple cider (thinking its atleast 1 & maybe 2 servings there!)

Ok its toast & sausage gravy & fresh pears for breakfast today!! yummm I know what I'm having :)

intro...

to a busy weekend...or a string of busy weekends rather....

TODAY: I have to buzz around & fine tune the cc for a nurse visit (breaking a new one in as they decided that ours won't be returning to her job when she returns from her year in Germany w/the Navy *sigh* I had just gotten her broken in RIGHT)

TONIGHT: hopefully nothing but TV
TOMORROW: book sale @ the hs, DM to get the house burn dvds, groceries, bday party
SUNDAY: sleeping in :)- Kyler's wrestling meet @12.

I am officially in full swing-crop-planning mode!! yesterday I settled on a date & reserved the room!! MARCH 28 & 9TH! I am so far calling it a spring fling as I am uncreative as ya get & can't come up w/anything else LOL I am trying to come up w/a creative 'bar' for lunch (sub, pasta, potato, etc) IF I have enough spots filled I will take part of the money & buy donuts one day for breakfast :D but I am NOT going around looking (begging) for donations this time. I'll save that effort for the SCRAP PINK in the fall!

off to make biscuits & gravy for breakfast! then going to get moving!!
