After a long Friday of work and coming home to tired/cranky kids, Todd and I were able to sit our asses on the couch and watch part of a movie "The Last 3 Days". It was very nice to veg out in front of the TV but I could not watch the entire movie and stay up too late. I had to get up early this morning.
Up at 6 a.m. for my WOD today - 1.5 mile swim in Lake Quassapaug with the QSC. I cannot even begin to tell you how gorgeous of a morning it was. Cooler temps, sunny skies and a very placid lake. It was breath-taking. After struggling to get my wetsuit on (always such a chore) I jumped in the water and took off. It was a .75 mile swim across the lake, a quick stop to have everybody catch up and then back to the club beach. It felt really good to swim but my lower back was very achy. I just need to focus on keeping my head down and body in alignment. 1.5 miles is a good distance and you really need to focus on your stroke and body to avoid hurting anything.
Home by 9 a.m. to the smell of pancakes in the air plus one extra child; our neighbors grandson. He came over for breakfast and stayed for a bit. The kids had a great morning playing and then we jumped into the car to shop a bit (remodeling my kids bathroom). After a tile purchase and some paint, we brought Lincoln to a pool party that he was invited too. Trinity went to our neighbors house to swim and we tried to put R down for an early nap. No good! Around 1:30 p.m. we collected everybody to head over to the Italian Festival in Southington. Trinity's Little Miss Southington group was asked to perform and I signed T-bird up. I posted the video on FB so you really need to hear it. She's our superstar!
I'm now home with a pint of vodka and lemonade by my side. I drank the full 16oz so far and I'm ready for another one. Off to neighbors house to get her drunk and use her pool. Love Thy Neighbor! We'll scrounge something up for dinner.
Oh by the way! I signed up for the Hartford 1/2 Marathon yesterday. Could not do the full because I don't think I want to run that far but 13 miles is long enough right now. Shelling out money like crazy! Sweet! It grows on trees at my house.....LOL!
Roxy is snoozing and I need to get her ass up because it is time to party. Damn kid is supposed to nap when it is NAP TIME! Now she is interfering with my drinking time. WAKE UP ROXY!

Fatty Patty!
OMG.....Can I just stop eating shit? Really! Period is over but my mind keeps thinking "eat shitty food and enjoy it!". After a great spin class at 5:45 a.m. I proceed to pack an amazingly healthy lunch to set myself up for a very healthy day. I get into the car and I want munchkins so damn bad. What do I do? I buy a box of 50 to bring into work and I ate about 25 of them on the drive in. My drive is only 2 miles! Fucking pathetic! So now I just need to ignore what I just ate this morning and continue to behave the rest of the day!
Enjoyed a great night last night at the YMCA for their Family Picnic. Had a hot dog and tons of watermelon and the kids tooled around making t-dye t-shirts, playing in the bounce house, dodgeball in the gaga pit and the slip n' slide. Everybody was very happy! But they quickly became unhappy when they finally realized that they were hungry and the grill closed down. I told them to eat before the event was over but nobody would listen to me. They just had a bowl of cereal when they got home. I had a bowl of ice cream after everybody went to bed :-)
Time to get my head out of my ass and behave! Plus I have to work too.....damn!

Hello Chair!
....I'm very happy to sit my ass in you today! My whole nerve thing is feeling good so I am welcoming a chair under my ass and some chill time. Granted, I am at work and I'm not really chilling but it works!
WOD - Nada! Took today off because I have been teaching class all week.
Yesterday was my "chill" day but I was still very busy. Brought L to camp, back home, back out to pick up T's friend to spend the day with us, back home, back out to get L from camp and then back home. In between all this I was able to change sheets on all the beds, do two loads of laundry and scrub one toilet bowl. I wouldn't say that I really got anything done but I had to entertain everybody and feed them a million times that I think I did enough. I was happy to be home all afternoon and put R down for a nap in her bed! She didn't sleep long but at least it was in her bed and not in the car like she has been almost all summer long!
Grigs came over for lunch and brought the kids ice cream. My kids LOVE Sue because she's always bringing treats. Her pockets are filled with candy and there's always something yummy coming out of her purse. It was nice to have all of us sit together on the back deck and eat lunch. Granted there were about seven conversations going on at once but it was fun. Thanks Grigs! We always love to have you over for lunch!
After lunch I had my neighbor send her grandson over to play with L and that's when that extra kid made things more complicated! Now it's boys against girls and everybody started arguing. Really people? Just have fun for crying out loud! I don't see what all the fuss is! By this time it was really warm out and I was in charge of the slip n' slide, the sprinkler, the water balloons and everything else. Then it's "Mom, I'm hungry! Mom, can we have? Mom, I want! Mom, they are being mean to me!".....oh shut the hell up you ungrateful little shits. When the neighbor left I was able to get everybody inside to prep for dinner, pack my bag for class and then bring T's friend home. When I arrived at the gym and got into class I had no idea what the hell just happened to me this week. It was a whirlwind! I still had the energy to muster up a fun class for my final night of teaching (WOD - 5K at 60rpm, 50 squats, 5K at 60rpm, 50 squats and another 5K at 60rpm.). I will continue to teach in the morning just not at night anymore. I need to be around for the family!
After class it was HAPPY HOUR! I had about 3 drinks under my belt and nobody else was really drinking with me so I just went right to water. Very quiet crew last night but it was a great night with some great conversation! Thank you all for coming out to Sliders with me! I was actually in bed by 10:30 p.m. for some much needed zzzzzzzz's!

Can You Say POOOOOOOPED!
Oh my word! What the hell is going on man! The kids are having way too much fun and I'm paying for it by doing all the damn work....Is it school yet?
Yesterday I taught the 5:45 a.m. spin class which gave me the entire day to get stuff done. After I dropped off Lincoln at camp around 8:30 a.m. I took T and R to get groceries. Came home, unpacked them and hung around doing God knows what! Picked Lincoln back up and home for some lunch and nappy nap time for R. T, L and I played Sorry while she napped and then she was of course awake. I just wish R napped for two hours or more. I can use that time!
Last night was ESPN night at the Rock Cats game. We had a cook out and enjoyed the game in some really cool temps after the rain came through. Thank you ESPN for the free event. My kids were very happy getting signatures from just about every mascot. Lots of fun but we needed to leave by the end of the 4th inning. It was already 8:30 p.m. and R was getting restless. That means get her home and into bed NOW!
Once home it was awful trying to get everybody to focus on getting ready for bed. This mommy had her evil horns coming out of her head because I was super tired myself and getting more cranky then the kids were. I wanted my bed and my little shits would not cooperate! Once I slammed their doors shut I threw myself into bed right after. No need for TV or anything else. I want sleep!
This morning I could barely get my ass out of bed around 6:45 a.m. I knew I had to get L to camp, pick up my neighbors kids, get to gym to teach class, back to get L from camp and then finally chill out at the town pool for a bit. I bolted out of bed and did all my morning chores and packed bags/cooler for the day. Once I did all that and was in the car at 8:30 a.m. I was already drained. I knew my day was going to be crazy.
WOD - spin class.....warmed up then hit the floor for three rounds of 4 burpees, 8 pushups and 12 situps, back on bike for a fast 3 miles, back to floor for another three rounds, on bike for 3 miles, last round on floor and back on bike for final 3 miles. I kicked my own ass pretty damn bad. It did make me realize that I have been slacking off with my "white sheets" workout because I have not done pushups or burpees in a while and I felt it. Granted I'm technically done training for my Half IM races but I need to continue to work off the plan. I don't want to lose all my strength.
After class grabbed the kids, got L from camp, took everybody to pool and lubed them up with lotion (job in itself), headed home, unpacked to just repack again and head out to Winding Trails for the kids Tri. By this time I'm all fucking pissed off and cranky. I'm beyond tired and I don't want to do a damn thing. I aired out all our suits/towels and cleaned out cooler. Packed up the suits/towels and cooler AGAIN and dropped of neighbors kids. R did not nap, L was sunburned from camp and T was hyper about racing. Here we go round what???? 10! Shit! I just do this shit to myself.
At WT and the kids race took off. T did an awesome job for not moving all summer so far....LOL! She had a huge smile on her face and this momma was and is really proud of her. She'll be sore tomorrow.
Due to the rainstorm afterwards, Daddy did not race in the "big boys" race tonight and instead we all went home and headed out to Outback Steakhouse for the most delicious filet mignon. YUMMIES! I had nothing pulled out and planned since we were supposed to be at WT swimming and watching the race, so we were better off eating out. My belly was very happy!
I'm not sitting here with me feet up blogging and thinking about how excited I am to do absolutely NOTHING tomorrow. Yes, I have to bring L to camp but when I get home it's time to clean the house. Maybe scrub a toilet, change some sheets and do some vacuuming. T and R can watch TV all morning for all I care!

BOO YAH!
My busy weekend has come to an end with my ass sitting on the couch with a bowl of ice cream in my lap watching the Kona Ironman Championships. Those damn racers are FAST! Shit! Great stories from some of the racers; testicle cancer racer who is still taking chemo, bike accident survivor, drug addict and in jail guy that got his shit together, 80 year old man who has raced in Kona 20 times (what the hell!) and a lady with a stress fracture on her foot and walked the whole 26.2 miles with a boot on. They all made it under the 17 hour cut off. I can't bitch about the little things anymore.
This momma needs her rest. It has been a busy weekend with some really really really late nights. Friday night with my buddy Rouski drinking beer and eating pizza by their pool. Did not leave their house until 11 a.m. and that means in bed my 12 p.m. Up early Saturday to MC Mom's Tractor Pull (again, don't ask!) but home in time to take a quick hour nap before we headed to the Southington Drive In to park our truck for the movie at 9 p.m. The town pool is a quick walk away so we locked everything up and hit the pool to cool off. It was so damn hot. The movie of the night was GREASE and I was very happy to be there and see it. The kids hung out in the back of the truck while Todd and I sat in our beach chairs. Again, home after 11 p.m. and in bed close to midnight again. At this point my kids really need their sleep because they are getting none at all. And up at 4:15 a.m. this morning to head down to New London for the AMICA OCEAN BEACH SPRINT TRI......Giddy up!
What a great morning. Still sticky and gross but cloudy with some rain. I won't complain about that. Of course the sun came out on the run which is the worst time for it to appear. We had 12 Tri Club members race this morning and it was great to see all of them attempt their first outdoor tri or for some others see them reach a time goal. I think we all came in within minutes of each other which I find funny! I completed the .5 mile swim, 16 mile bike and 3.1 mile run in 1:46 which I was happy with. I think my swim was really long. I was zig zagging like crazy because I was breathing on one side due to my goggles filling up with water on the other side. I usually swim away from everybody to get out of the mess of people and I sure did swim away from everybody this morning. I was going in the wrong direction have the time. Totally thought of you Grigs!
A few of us hung out on the beach afterwards and enjoyed the water, company and food of course. The kids had a blast playing in the water. By 2 p.m we decided to pack up and leave. I really wanted to get home and clean up. Plus my kids needed a serious bath and I just wanted to be so DONE! When we did arrive home I ended up doing some yard work, cleaning off my bike, hosing down my wetsuit and other miscellaneous stuff. It was 5 p.m. and this point and I was beyond sweaty and I needed to shower NOW! I get ready to hit the shower and BAM! I have my period again......Geez, I just had it didn't I? Well, it has literally been three weeks and now I'm pissed off about that. Yank my uterus out! I don't want it anymore.
With nice clean kids and a nice clean ME, everybody hit the sack early to read and hopefully fall asleep before 9 p.m. at least. I'm off to bed myself because I surely need the sleep. Plus I am teaching the 5:45 a.m. spin class tomorrow morning......oh yippy!

I Love This 20/20/20 Shit!
You should all really try it. My WOD today was 20 min swim (1100 yards)/20 min bike (6.45m)/20 min run (2.31m). I felt indestructible, strong, confident and truly amazing! For all my racers that read this blog, you should do this 20/20/20 two days before a race. It warms up your body and gets you ready for the big day physically and mentally! I'm even a week away from my period and I still feel really good which never happens :-)
After a long day of sitting on my ass yesterday, supper was on the table waiting for me as soon as I walked in the door. Thank you Todd! Trinity had voice lessons so I stayed home to clean up the kids' rooms while Todd took R and L to the pool for a quick dip. They came home with hot fudge sundaes from McD's. How happy was this momma!!!!!! Very happy!!!!!! By the time we got the kids to bed it was after 9 p.m. and I quickly jumped into bed as well around 9:30 p.m. I really wanted to chill and watch some TV but I knew that I have a busy weekend ahead of me and sleep is very important right now. After a few minutes of reading my eyes started to blur and it was time to roll over. I don't even think I got the words "I love you" out to my husband before I fell asleep......Oh I love to sleep! Love it, love it, love it!
Today is another "sit on ass" day at work. I was able to get some of my class reunion stuff done (yes, I'm planning my 20 year class reunion), get my workout in and now it's time to finish this day up. We are going over to my friends house tonight for pizza/beer and some pool time. Looking forward to it! Tomorrow morning I am MC-ing my mother's tractor pull event at the Terryville Fair Grounds.....don't ask. It is going to be so damn hot that I'm actually not looking forward to sitting around in the heat announcing that Mr. Jim Dick is pulling with his 4500lb 1949 Farmhill Tractor. The announcing part will be interesting but not the heat!
Stay cool everybody!

I'm Sore.....
.....take a whole week off and look at what happens. My body is in shock!
Been working out all week teaching spin classes, running and lifting. I think the lifting is what is making me sore. I have not done pull ups in over a month. Today is a rest day and I'm sitting on my ass which my ass is not happy about but at least I'm able to "chill" at work. I have a sprint triathlon on Sunday with my PEEPS so I should be careful with my workouts. I don't need to be super sore for it!
I have been much too lazy at night to blog so I apologize for the lack of "Stacia's updates". My week has been hot, sweaty, busy, sticky, lazy and freaking nuts. I made sure the kids had fun on Monday at the CT Science Center after a brief workout in the morning. We were there almost all day (11:30 - 4 p.m.). I was exhausted from the constant stimulation. Then on Tuesday we picked blueberries at my mother's house and hung out with her all afternoon and then to my brother-in-laws pool after supper. Yesterday (Wednesday) was a "get shit done day!"........Jen I would have loved to have had you over for company but good thing you needed to get shit done too because I had some things to wrap up. Ran to a couple of stores very early in the morning before the heat got bad and then back home. After lunch is when things got busy because Trinity had a birthday party at 1 p.m., Lincoln was invited to his friends pool (neighbor across the street) at 2 p.m., I took Roxy with me to my DR apt. at 2:15 p.m., then drove back to neighbors house to swim with Lincoln, back home to get Trinity from party at 5 p.m. and left at 5:15 p.m. to go teach class. Phew! Dinner was on the stove and I high-fived my hubby and left. I did not come home right after class because I had to do some clothes shopping for two kids that I sponsored for the "Adopt A Child" program at work. I had so much fun buying them school clothes. Totally robbed JCPenney's blind. You should see the shit I bought! By the time I got home my feet were throbbing and my head wanted my pillow.
So far my kids have been doing really good. Granted, I don't put up with any of their shit and I do not give them a second chance, but they have been great. Roxy is a trooper especially with quick naps in car, lap or couch all week long. The poor girl has not been in her bed for a regular nap all week long. No complaints from her though. She is quite happy!
Going in Aug 2nd for my cortisone shot. Ass feels good but I can still tell that it's there. I'm getting the shot anyways to prevent any flair-ups that I may get from exercising. It's been almost a year now and it's about time I solve this damn problem.

After lunch is when things got busy because Trinity had a birthday party at 1 p.m., Lincoln was invited to his friends pool (neighbor across the street) at 2 p.m., I took Roxy with me to my DR apt. at 2:15 p.m., then drove back to neighbors house to swim with Lincoln, back home to get Trinity from party at 5 p.m. and left at 5:15 p.m. to go teach class. Phew! Dinner was on the stove and I high-fived my hubby and left. I did not come home right after class because I had to do some clothes shopping for two kids that I sponsored for the "Adopt A Child" program at work. I had so much fun buying them school clothes. Totally robbed JCPenney's blind. You should see the shit I bought! By the time I got home my feet were throbbing and my head wanted my pillow.
So far my kids have been doing really good. Granted, I don't put up with any of their shit and I do not give them a second chance, but they have been great. Roxy is a trooper especially with quick naps in car, lap or couch all week long. The poor girl has not been in her bed for a regular nap all week long. No complaints from her though. She is quite happy!
Going in Aug 2nd for my cortisone shot. Ass feels good but I can still tell that it's there. I'm getting the shot anyways to prevent any flair-ups that I may get from exercising. It's been almost a year now and it's about time I solve this damn problem.
