Holy shit! $90 to fill my gas tank.

Oh my word!  I need to figure out a way how to get somewhere without driving.  Or I'll have to be strategic about where I go and how far I go.  Craziness!

So I woke up today realizing that I have a month left before race #1.  I had a revelation this morning.  I need to give myself one whole month to detox the body.  Maybe "try" to lose 3 - 4 pounds.  Treat the body like a temple, feed it really nutritional and healthy foods, sleep more, stretch/more massage therapy and stop eating like shit.  But the funny thing is trying to do all this while PMS-ing.  Might not be too easy.

WOD - 400m sprint followed by 50 squats 5X's for time = 18:50.  I was supposed to row instead of squat but my ass does not like rowing.  Therefore I substituted my own thing.  Sprinting at 8.5 then 8.6 and finally 8.7.  My body was NOT happy doing the sprinting.  I felt like a sack of potato's.

The workout was quick because I had to get groceries.  Came home after spending $232 at the grocery store, put everything away (so nice to have stocked shelves again), had lunch, played with Roxy, put her to bed, planted some dying tulips bulbs from Easter, laundry, computer work, DR apt, prepared dinner, took Trinity to her "Little Miss Southington" rehearsal, came home to eat, cleaned up, put the kids to bed, put the laundry away and here I am.  Phew!  Another minute to minute day!  And again I did not get any of my housework done.  Damn!

Ass problem - went to DR today for my cortisone shot consultation.  Looks like I'm going back in for another MRI because he believes it could be a disc issue.  I don't understand how that is but he's the DR.  He did say that in most cases the piriformis syndrome is a false diagnosis and is actually caused by the sciatica pinching in the back.  Okay dokey!  We'll see what happens in a week.

Kids - Great day with them today but Lincoln was all over Trinity being a jack-ass.  Typical picking on his sister and driving her crazy.  If I were Trinity I would have decked him.  I'd be pissed off too with the teasing.

Time for some down time in front of the boob tube and off to bed.  No hanky panky tonight.  I'm too damn tired!

I have to hurry up and write my blog.......

...............so I can get some action tonight before my hubby falls asleep on me :-)

Sorry for not checking in with you all on Saturday.  I had such a busy day doing God knows what that I couldn't get on my computer at all.

WOD - 5 burpees, 10 pushups, 500m row AMRAP (as many reps as possible) in 20 minutes.  I think I got through 5 rounds.  Ass was not happy rowing again.  After that I needed to bike 1m, rest, 2m, rest, 3m rest, 4m, rest, 5m, rest and back down 5,4,3,2,1.  I cheated.  I only biked 1/2 of that.  I did my 1,2,3,4,5 miles and quit.  I didn't not have the time to go back down.  I plugged in 17 miles but if I followed through the whole way it would have been over 30 miles.  I can't imagine doing that on a stationary bike.

Came home to get chores done around the house and do some yard work.  Let's just say by the time I got back home it was 11:30 a.m.  Todd had just gotten back with Trinity (Fishing Derby).  I made lunches and before you know it Todd and I were on the back deck putting together a canopy and new deck furniture.  That took up the whole afternoon.  My neighbors grandson came over and the kids played while we continued to work.  I never did get my yard work done like I had wanted too.

By 4:15 p.m. I was showering, shaving and getting ready for my girls night out.  Happily left the whole family and grabbed two Coors Lights out of the fridge, some cheese and crackers and headed to my sisters house to hang with my cousin and friend Kathy.  After over an hour of drinking and talking about our vagina's we took off to the Jack & Jill we had bought tickets for.  LOADS OF FUN!  This J&J was for my friend, who was my 1st boyfriend, whom I have kept in touch with all these years.  It was great to see the family and all the old friends.

Home by midnight with about 5 beers in my belly.  Passed out cold with a smile on my face because I really needed that night out.


TODAY - Slept in until 7:30 a.m. (I know, I can't sleep in late).  Family portraits taken this morning at Camp Sloper at 10:30 a.m. then off to Kathy's house for her daughters 1st communion party by 11:30 a.m. and stayed until 5:30 p.m.  Drinking, eating and socializing all day.  We had loads of fun and the kids had a great time playing with all their friends.

Ordered Chinese for dinner, threw the kids in the tub (of course with a few screams because they were so tired and did not want to bathe), chilled to some TV and here I am. 

WOD - Nada......Was supposed to sprint today but I never did get it in.

Food - Ate like shit all weekend.....Giddy up!

Ass - Killing me!

Kids - They just ran around like Indians all weekend long.  I would say they had a great weekend.

Cheerio!

I'm so sorry for forgetting about you...................

............I was sooooooooooooooooo busy yesterday that I could not blog.  Then once my ass hit the couch there was no turning back.  I apologize!

Yesterday's WOD was done at 5:30 a.m. - 5K row (5000m) followed by 800 yard swim.  I was watching the Royal Wedding while I was rowing and that made the time go by really fast.  I couldn't get my eyes off the damn TV.  Then I jumped into the pool to swim with my new goggles that kept fogging up.  Nothing like buying "anti-fogging" goggles.  Load of shit!  It was very hard swimming with blurred vision the whole time but I guess it is getting me ready for open water swimming.

Trying to get ready for work was impossible.  I wanted to sit with a cup of tea and keep watching the wedding.  I loved it and it put a smile on my face all day.  When I got to work I even put it on my TV that is on my desk so I could watch it.  Finally, I decided to shut the TV off because I was going to get no work done what-so-ever.

Work was absolutely nuts.  I won't even go into it but I barely had a lunch, but I did get a chance to head out to get a pedicure.  Usually they are pretty quick but for some reason they were so damn slow and I was gone forever.  I was stressing out and getting pissed.  Of course by the time I got back shit had hit the fan and the rest of my afternoon was a whirlwind.

Ass - very bad yesterday.  I know it was not happy with the rowing especially right out of bed.  I think that aggravated it the rest of the day because I was very uncomfortable.  I just need to take some time today and give it a good stretch.

Food - Did okay until the devil in my mind made me hit the candy dish.  Then I lost it and ate a lot of chocolate.  Now comes the gas.  Oh well!  I just continued eating somewhat healthy and then I would fall off the wagon all day long.  By this point I was terribly bloated!

After work I hit TJ Maxx to buy some clothes.  Usually I can never find anything in there other then workout clothes but I was on a mission for shoes, bras and pants.  I was on FIRE!  I came out of there with a pair of shoes, two bras, 3 capri's, 1 skort, 2 jeans and a book for Roxy for $143.  Not bad at all.  Between my shopping spree with Grigs on Wednesday night and yesterday I should be all set for  the Spring.  At least until I get paid again :-)

Kids are demanding breakfast so time to feed the animals.  I'll blog later today and let you know how my Saturday went.  So far I was woken up at 6 a.m. by wee Roxy.  Damn her!

Sniffed out some chocolate.......

Damn candy dishes around work.  Oh but it's so damn yummy

I'm ovulating! Anybody need a baby?

It always feels like gas but there it is.....ouch!  Ovulating is more painful then the actual big event.....oh, ouch!

Had a great night shopping with Grigs last night.  Didn't get home until 11 p.m. because we kept talking.  Hit Old Navy first then Kohls.  By 8:30 p.m. I was so done shopping (I'm a shopping light weight).  Off to Flatbread for some supper and a few beers.  Needed to have one more beer so we hit Chili's down the road to sit and drink again.  Three beers is all that I am allowed!  I would get into trouble if I had more.

Work day today - Trinity has not been complaining about her stomach but I'm still putting Mylax powder in her milk (Thank you Miriam....we have it in the house for Lincoln).  We'll see if she pooped today or not.  I don't even know if it is a poopie issue or not.  Well see!

WOD - 100 push ups for time = 4:39 = my personal best.  I was shocked.  I'm going to get some firm boobies someday.  After the pushups I rode the bike for 13.1 miles = 29:58 = that is another personal best for me.  I guess I was on fire today.  Very sweaty but on fire.

Due to my ovulating issues I feel very bloated today.  I'm doing good with my eating because I have been so busy at work that I can't even think about it.  Shake, grapes, salad with turkey/cheese, yogurt, fiber bar and tons of water so far. 

My blog is quick today because I need to get back to work and I won't really get a chance to do it tonight.  And I don't want to be up until 10 p.m. tonight.  It's going to be a 8:30 p.m. night.  I need my sleep!

What did I get myself into.....

I thought that maybe watching my sister's puppy would be no big deal.  Wrong!  He's such a sweetie but I need to get every stuffed animal and shoe out of his mouth.  Silly boy!  See the picture of Emil, he's a sweetie.  The cats did not like him, check out my cat on top of my front door.  It was hysterical!

WOD - I did not look at my sheet because I was too damn tired from everything I did yesterday.  I met my friend Jill for a run on the Farmington Rail Trail at 8:45 a.m.  Roxy sat in the jogger and Jill pushed her daughter Katherine in her jogger.  We took of and started talking and did not shut up once.  Before you know it we are a 1/2 hour out and we need to turn around and run back.  I'm guessing we plugged in a good 6+ miles.  Roxy asked a lot of questions so she kept me on my toes the whole time.  My legs felt great and it was a wonderful workout.  Usually I do double workouts on Wednesday's but since I am not teaching tonight I only have the one.  I'm okay with that!  My body needs the wee break.

Hanging out with Emil (the puppy) all day.  The kids need to understand that screaming gets the dog all excited and he wants to play.  They are not used to dogs and that is why I offered to have him with us for the day.  So this way if we want a dog down the road they understand them.

I wanted to get outside and do some yard work but I received a phone call from school.  Trinity still has belly problems and so I picked her up.  I made her drink a cup of tea but she hasn't gone poopie yet.  She better get something out soon before she pops.  Roxy took a small nap and Lincoln is wired up from school.  Now my house is crazy and I need to focus on getting some chores done.  Plus I need to shower.

Going out with Grigs tonight for some spring shopping and a bite to eat.  We both hate shopping so this should be very interesting.  Question is, do I shower before my date night?  Oh of course I will silly!  That is why I am blogging now because tonight I will not be up for it.

Enjoy!

Today was an absolute whirlwind!

It's 10 p.m. and I just want to get my ass to bed but I need to fill you in on my day of events.  I'll make it quick and painless:

1.  Got kids on bus and headed to Agway for some fertilizer before going to the gym.
2.  Taught class at 9:30 (biked 3 X 5K's at 60rpm and in between we lifted)
3.  After class I drove to my church to drop off clothes for their clothing sale.
4.  Back home to make lunch and play outside with Roxy.
5.  Roxy down for nap and now this mama is out spraying her wild onions (I'm infested with those fuckers!)
6.  After doing that all afternoon I needed to get Lincoln off the bus at 2:50 p.m.
7.  Back home checking e-mails to go pick up Trinity and neighbors kids at bus stop for 3:20 p.m.
8.  Trinity had a 3:30 p.m. DR apt.  The whole gang hung out in the lobby making a mess of the toys and driving me crazy.
9.  Did not leave DR until 4:40 p.m. (At this point I'm a mess b/c I needed to sub class tonight at 5:15 p.m.)
10.  Supposed to drop off T's pee sample (may have a UTI) but there was a line.  Shit, I'll do it tomorrow.
11.  Dropped off neighbors kids
12.  Drove home to dress and back into the car to head to gym.
13.  Dragged kids into the daycare so Daddy could pick them up in 10 minutes while I started class.
14.  Taught 45 minutes of body sculpting followed by a 45 minute circuit training class.  (My body is done!)
15.  Rushed out of gym to head to Walgreens and pick up stuff for Trinity
16.  Barreled through the door worried about a pissed off husband because of my last minute subbing.
17.  Ate supper, folded clothes, helped Trinity with her enima (she has poopy problems). 
18.  Stayed up with Trinity because the enima made her very sick and crampy.  Poor girl!  I felt so bad!  And she still did really shit.
19.  On couch to watch a show
20.  Blogging and debating whether or not to shower now or tomorrow?  Thoughts?  I should shower now because I have acne like I'm 12 again.  It's so ugly.

That is my day in a nutshell.  Tired, ate like crap again, ass is still sore, very short with the kids this afternoon and I just realized that I needed to add about 10 more things to my (100 things to do) list.  Crap!

I need to fall asleep now!
