OK, so Scott was back at work today. The day actually went pretty well. The girls actually seem easier to get ready this year than last so the mornings aren’t that rough. Plus I’ve been setting clothes out the night before to make it even easier. We brought S home from school with us so they played the entire afternoon together in the playroom. And have I mentioned how much I like my office in the sunroom and the toys in Lexi’s room? They play in there ALL the time. And today I went in there and Lexi literally said, “Get out of here!” Two seems a little early to be dissing Mommy but I guess that’s the way kids are these days (please catch the sarcasm).
When SIL came to pick up S, the girls wanted to go home with her so they spent the afternoon/evening over at their house. In fact, Lexi was asleep for the night when she brought them home.
Scott and I went to the gym when I quit working and can I just say I’m kind of over the gym. It’s been almost two years that I’ve been working hard in the gym, only for the past 6 weeks or so when I actually lost weight and kept it off and now when I see those calories on the elliptical, I just don’t care about them as much and there’s no motivation…there’s no “Just 100 more calories and I’ll work off that cookie I ate after lunch”. I’ve lost the weight I’ve wanted and I really want to keep up with it because I know my cholesterol is still a little high but there’s no “You just worked off 5 HDL points! Congratulations, keep going for 10 more minutes” option. Anyway, we’re seriously considering stopping the membership at least until January when they have the free signups again. I know everything is going to get busy during the holidays anyway and it’s almost $70 a month. Very much one of our luxury bills we could do without.
So anyway, Scott and I stopped at Subway on the way home where I then spent almost this whole evening either checking email, myspace, watching crappy reality shows or blogging about them. I wish I had something more interesting to say, but I think this will do it for now. The clock just turned midnight so I think this Cinderella has to go!
