I have taken a few steps back and realized that Stacia Cardillo's life is healthy and happy. I have three beautiful kids, my husband has a good job and takes really good care of us and I have my jobs and they all make me really happy. I know that I bitch about all the small stuff which really shouldn't matter but it is still fun to complain :-)
Blogging early because I really do need to get by ass to bed early tonight. My body is tired, my eyes look it and I just need some good sound sleep.
First words of the day "Mommy I peed my bed!".....oh here we go! It was 6:20 a.m. and that was our wakeup call. Time to change some bed sheets and do laundry.
WOD - 10K run for time = ????? I forgot my watch so I have no idea how long it took me to run. My legs are very tired from all the biking and the 7 mile run from Monday. I was going to swim today instead but that would mean I would have to do the 10K tomorrow and I'm not going to do it on the treadmill since the weather is supposed to be bad. I decided to switch and just do the run today. I felt really good but unfortunately there are numerous hills around work. Two very short and steep hills really did me in on the way back. I needed to stop and walk for about 20 seconds and then continue. I was upset with myself for stopping but the quick walk gave me the boost that I needed and during that break my heart rate was able to sneak down a bit.
Now I'm back to my desk plugging in all my work and I'm already behind schedule. Damn!
Ass - Awful! I'm telling you that work is really bothering me. This sitting is painful and I need to figure out how to fix the problem. Maybe quit! Nope! Can't do that. I felt the nerve/muscle pulling a bit in the beginning of my run but then my legs warmed up and I didn't feel it anymore. I also stretched really good afterwards and that felt great. But as soon as I sit for longer then 5 minutes I'm in trouble.
Food - Shake, granola bar for breakfast, ham/cheese roll ups, carrot/hummus, diet soda for lunch. I also have my cantaloupe and yogurt to have later this afternoon. Leftover chicken for supper tonight. I hope it is still good.

I want to get horizontal so bad I can taste it!
I'm so damn tired. My body is itching to get into bed and I can't get there quick enough tonight.
Another crazy day picking things up at the store, painting bathroom, having Mom over for lunch, laundry, feeding animals, nap time for Roxy, working out, preparing dinner, packing lunches for tomorrow, checking e-mails, blogging and now getting kids to bed. I still need to shower, pack my lunch for work tomorrow, pack my gym back for my workout tomorrow morning, take my vitamins, brush my teeth and THEN I can SLEEP! Oh how lovely it will be to snuggle up under my covers with my electric blanket on. I'm so esssssited!
WOD - Deadlifts (1/2 bodyweight = 95lbs) 21 times, 400m sprint (8.5), 9 situps, 15 deadlifts, 400m sprint (8.5) 15 situps, 9 deadlifts, 400m sprint (8.6), 21 situps then bike 4 X 5K's (3.1 miles totally 12.4 miles). Added a few extra miles in for warmup and cool down. Phew! WO #2 was teaching another class tonight for an hour (1 min out of seat, 1 min rest, 2 min out, 1 min rest, 3 min out, 1 min rest, 4 min out, 1 min rest, 5 min out, 1 min rest then back down from 5 to 1). My legs are shot!
Food - No sugar today. Giddy up! Shake, nuts, salad, yogurt, granola bar, diet soda, 1 slice of pizza and turkey sausage soup. I'm pretty damn proud of myself......and OH YEAH, I completely forgot to mention this but I got on the scale this morning for HA HA's. 192.5 pounds. I have no idea how I just went down 3 pounds but I love it! I even got a compliment tonight.......Love you Ellen Arce!
Kids - Roxy was very tired so I had to walk on eggshells around her. Chilled out after gym and put her down for a nap. She didn't nap too long but it was long enough for her to catch up. Lincoln was the one that fell apart after school. Needless to say he fell asleep at 3:45 p.m. and work up at 5:15 p.m. Trinity is punished so she is not allowed to watch TV so we played outside for over an hour after school. It was such a beautiful day out.
Ass - It's there! Nothing new to report.......damn ass!
Time to catch up on a quick show before bed. Goodnight!

Trial and Tribulations of Parenthood
To nap or not to nap. That was Roxy's dilemma today. She chose to nap for 20 minutes. GREAT!
To decorate for Easter or to take a shower. That was my dilemma today. I chose to do both but the shower was 15 seconds long. Enough time to scrub my bits.
To punish or not to punish. That was Todd's and my dilemma today. We chose to punish. Trinity received a call home from the Principal. She is too damn nosey that she decided to get involved in something that she shouldn't care about! Just like her mother.
What a day! Taught class, headed to sisters house to drop off cooler, let her dog out for a pee break, dropped off glasses at a friends house, back home, lunch, folded clothes, outside to hang eggs from my trees, feed the rabbits, get kids off bus, homework, prep dinner, neighbor visits, phone keeps ringing, make dinner, eat dinner, shower, head to school for Talent Show rehearsal, back home, kids to bed, long talk with Trinity and here I am.
WOD - Class today so I did not follow my sheet. We rode uphill for about 3 miles, jumped off the bikes and did a circuit of pushups, situps, jumping jacks and squats, rode again, circuit, rode one last time then off for a nice long stretch.
Food - Other then the typical afternoon munchies I did okay. No sugar in the house so I was munching on Cheez-It's, crackers and cheese and some peanuts.
Ass - Not too bad today. I felt it on the bike a little bit but I didn't sit all day so it does not bother me. I did stretch really good after class to help it out a bit too.
I just need my bed so I'm going to sign off right now. Oh yeah! I forgot to blog yesterday so I just wanted to let you know that I did my 7 miles. I actually ran for 1:07:00 which I'm praying is at least 7 miles. I'll have to clock what I ran. Windy run but was okay!

You get a haircut and nobody notices you!
 |
| Joe and I at today's Tri. Here's my new do. |
I really wasn't home today. At gym for indoor tri at 8 a.m., did not get home until 2:30 p.m. Ran the kids over to neighbors house to play. I was their pitcher so they could play baseball. Back home at 4:30 p.m. to throw supper in the oven, out in the car with Trinity to hit Ocean State Job Lot, back home by 5:15 p.m. Needed bread and milk....dammit! Back out into the car to hit store for bread and milk and finally home by 5:45 p.m. to finish off super and eat. PHEW! What the hell just happened today.
WOD - Supposed to run 7 miles but I keep putting it off. Didn't want to do it yesterday, so I was going to do it today, didn't want to do it today so I will do it tomorrow. How bad am I? I pulled Tuesday's workout off the sheet and did that today......300 squats for time = 7:24. I literally rolled out of bed at 6:55 a.m. hit the potty and sat in front of my TV in my bedroom with my jammies on and did the 300 squats. Showered after and got ready for my busy day.
Food - Shake, apple, yogurt, salad with chicken and then BAM! Carrot cake, cookies and a brownie. All that stuff is left over from our Friday night party and it is still in my house. Todd and I have been enjoying it all weekend long and I think I just need to dump it all tomorrow. However, I really do hate to waste some yummy treats! But we did have some yummy chicken, green beans and potatoes for supper.
Ass - tight this morning but felt good all day. I never sat so that is why it felt so good. However, I'm sitting right now so it will be interesting to get up. Oh boy!
Kids - L and T are feeling better but not 100%. They are going to school tomorrow so they better be fine. Roxy is the only germ free kid right now. I hope it stays that way. This mama can't afford to be sick!
Weekend is over. It was a wonderful weekend and now I'm ready to start my week.....NOT!

"Mom can I buy this? Can we get that? Look at what they have Mom, can we get it?"
That is all they do when we go to the stores. It's beyond annoying! For once I would like to just walk into a store, look for what I need, maybe browse for myself or the house and leave without anybody bugging me to buy something. UGH!!!
So my party last night did not end until 12:30 a.m. and I was sober the entire time. Not one drink hit my lips! No idea why I wasn't drinking. Maybe I was just too busy making sure everybody was so damn happy that I didn't get "happy" myself. It was loads of fun though. My Dad's friends are awesome and I love them to pieces.
In bed at 12:30 a.m. and at 2 a.m. Roxy was up for some strange reason. Walked her back to her bed and then I was up with her at 6:20 a.m. Oh my word! I felt like I drank a whole case of beer. I was tired and I had a headache. I just knew it was going to be a long day but it was a great day. I had patience this morning, shockingly enough and the kids were really good. T and L are still fighting their yuckies so they napped this afternoon while Roxy napped. This Mama had to clean up the garage and do chores but I did find time to sit on the couch and catch up with Dancing With The Stars. Love that show!
WOD- Nada! I'm too damn tired to workout. I'll save my energy for my 7 mile run tomorrow. That is going to be interesting.
Food - Not interested in healthy today. I was pretty good last night without eating many apps and desserts. However, I did eat some but not alot and there was plenty. Today is a different story. Too many cookies and cake leftover that I happen to be snacking on it all day. But in moderation though :-)
Ass - Sore this morning but I haven't really sat all day so I'm not hurting as much. We'll see how it feels after my long run tomorrow.
TV time..............................

Five million things going on at once! Story of my life!
I'm going to post early today because I'm having a big party at my house tonight and I will not have the mind frame to sit and blog. I will either be two sheets to the wind or beyond exhausted. I'm going to guess both.
Two sick children on my hands today. Ran one to mediquick at 7:30 a.m. for a sore throat which is strep. The other one has green monsters flying out of her nose. It's totally like that Mucinex commercial. These guys are big and mean. The poor thing blew through 5 tissues and the green goup kept coming. Needles to say her eyes were very glossy and she was not happy. Two phone calls to the school nurses and off to Papa's house to chill. Big momma has to work and so doesn't daddy. Sorry kids! At least Roxy is healthy for now!
WOD - I was supposed to do a long workout at 5:30 a.m. but I had no energy to do it so I brought my stuff to work and hit the work gym. I had to row but some bimbo was on the rowing machine barely sweating. I wanted to drag her off that thing by her pony tail. Come on girlfriend, I need the damn machine to workout HARD. Get the F!@#$ off!!!!! That is what I say in my head but I chose to find an alternative route. So here we go: 21 burpees, 3 mile bike (13 on resistance pumping out 100rpm), 15 burpees, 6 mile bike, 9 burpees and 9 mile bike. I was supposed to row in between and do 12 miles after the 9 but I had no time an I think 18 miles of biking with 45 burpees is plenty for today. Not an inch of dry shorts or shirt so I guess my workout paid off. My heart rate was on average of 143 the whole time which is a great fat burning pace. Burn baby burn!
Food - Another great day! Shake for breakfast, gluten free granola bar, pb&j on whole wheat sandwich thin and it was the real PB (100% peanuts). No skippy today. An apple, carrots with hummus and now I'm chomping on gum. I'll have my yogurt in a bit and once I'm home I will party it up like a rock star and eat pizza and desserts. I'll "try" to be somewhat good.
My ass is a mess again. I actually noticed that my lower body is completely sore. I don't have the movement that I used too. I feel really sore and achy. These tree trunks are heavy suckers and can take anything but maybe they are getting beat on too much. I walk and bend down like I'm 80 years old. But for now I'm sitting on my bosses baseball. Not for kicks my friends but rolling it around on my sore ass. Quite funny actually but it does help. My boss says he doesn't want it back :-)
Work is totally nuts and I have 5 things pending right now and all due at the same time. That is the TV world for ya. Always in a time crunch.
Giddy Up!

I love old people!!!!
On my way home from the gym at lunch time today I drove past this really thin, old man walking. He was wearing a large brim hat, coat with gloves, shorts, tube socks and sneakers. I was so happy to see him outside getting fresh air. It did make me wonder what I will be like when I'm his age. Will I still be exercising? Will I be able to actually move is the big question :-)
Work day today so my butt was miserable, I was in a constant time crunch today because of work, my lunch time workout, hair appointment after work, picking up my daughter at her friends after that and then back home. Once home it was pack lunches, feed the cats, unpack my bags, working on the computer for the Tri Club for Sunday's race and now I'm blogging. It is 9:21 and I really need to get my sore butt to bed.
WOD - Swim 100 yards, 5 squats, 5 pushups 8X's for time = 18:41. The best part about this workout today is the following:
A. My husband met me for lunch and we worked out together
B. In a small way it gave my legs a big break
C. It was only 18 minutes of my time
Even though it was short I still really felt my heart rate get up pretty high.
My butt is miserable today. Sitting sucks but I have no choice but to sit at work. I won't get anything done if I keep getting up to walk around. I'm in the TV business so everything needs to be done at a certain time. If it's not done I am totally screwed. I'm even sitting right now and I can feel my ass getting cranky.
As for my food today I did GREAT! However, I was starving all day. I wasn't hungry due to boredom but hungry because I was really hungry. I had my protein shake, apple, salad with turkey and cheese, yogurt, gluten free granola bar, cup of tea, cup of sugar free hot coca, handful of almonds and a bagel with cream cheese for supper (needed something on the fly before my hair cut).
Time to clean some stuff up because I'm having a big party at my house tomorrow night and since I am at work I won't be home to get it done during the day.
