I had a pretty decent day yesterday.
My little guys were cracking me up! The older of the little ones barricaded the little guy into the corner with laundry baskets. The baby was happily playing, quarantined. lol I walk in and soon says, "sorry, mom." so he clearly knew it wasn't Ok as I hadn't even said anything yet. I said, "what did you do?"
"i put the baby in a cage."
"you can't out the baby in the cage, babe!"
he responds, "only kiki?" which is our cat. Then later the baby was trying to get out of his play tent and his hands were poking under, but the tent was moving with him as he crawled "out". son was laughing, so I asked why. He told me, "the baby is a crab!" Ah.... their imaginations are too much!
Finally, it was lunch and
older son was quite upset because his Fiber want in his yogurt. What 4 year old asks for fiber? lol fb that!
I weighed myself today. That took forever because I ran around looking for batteries for the wii board. Ugh. But it payed off. I'm exactly the same as I was the last time I weighed on the scale. That's 4 pounds up from lowest. My belly is definitely not Concave like it was. It sucks out which I hate. But it's probably not that noticeable? If I had that tummy tuck I would feel fine about my body. Overall.
It's snowing here. husband isn't going into work tomorrow because of it. So he will have from Wednesday through Sunday off! Today we will have everyone over, Friday we will decorate with the kids, then go get ice cream. lol after they will leave for the weekend. That will give us a break after it being busy.
Waiting on husband's fish to arrive. They are out for delivery. He bought a Fox face, blue hippo tang and some sort of wrasse. The Fox face I'm actually excited about. It's beautiful! They were on sale. We talked it over and he thinks I'm the best. But I think he just needs to remember this moment when my running shoes costs as much as three salt water fish. I'm normally pretty cheap. But after breaking my fifth metatarsal I will pay through the nose for running shoes! Especially since my foot bones are off and it causes my striking to be forceful. thinking of getting a pair of Brooks. But they have a treadmill and make recommendations.
Today's goals are pretty much cleaning. prepping everything for Thursday. Kids have an early dismissal. Break starts today.
husband was 45 minutes late to work from the scow!
Yesterday was eldest sons day to spend time with me. I was pressed for time but he suckered me in! LOL He asked me if I had any rap songs that I liked from when I was a kid. I do. It was an interesting conversation. I talked about how I am more geared toward rock, but I can appreciate all music as long as it speaks to me. So, we spent some time watching youtube videos of Tupac. I told him that I liked tupac because he told a story, he evoked a feeling, he gave you something to think about. We played Changes (told him how my family is uber racist!), life goes on (how I related emotionally to that song), and Dear mama. Then I told him that I listen to music that he isn't allowed to listen to because I am further in the faith and can weed out the lies, and music has the potential to influence you. I also talked about how I can appreciate talent, which todays rappers don't seem have possess. I mentioned how talented Eminem is, and played mockingbird. And walked him through how I related to them, and he sat with his arm around me (which is sweet) and listening and asking questions. I really enjoyed that time.
Today I'm thinking of throwing together some sort of recipe. I have leftover grilled chicken, an avocado, and some black beans. Surely I can do something with that? lol
