MIA Again!!??

I clearly have been severely MIA again. Couldn't be due to chasing toddlers, a preschooler and kinder, could it? I am disappointed that I haven't been keeping at this as often as before. I dove into blogging saying to myself to post at least something small every day and I think I did for a couple of weeks. I'm going to give it the 'ol college try again (although my success in that dept isn't so great either!)! ;-)

As is typical for most women, I'm not all that happy with the physical shape I'm in. I recently acquired 3 new workout DVDs. I decided today to start with The Biggest Loser's 30 Day Jump Start. You workout 6 days a week with week 1 only being 10 minutes/day, week 2 20 minutes/day, week 3 30 minutes/day and week 4 40 minutes/day. OMG! That measly little 10 minutes kicked my pathetic behind! Apparently I'm in worse shape than I thought. Instead of beating myself over it, I'm choosing to stay the course and see if I can get my not-too-far-from-40 body healthy.

Time to shower because I stink!

So much to do....

I was reflecting on the things I need to get done while the babies nap: shower (a very necessary evil), bake cookies (for a thing tonight) and put together the bank deposit. Annoyingly, these will take up most of nap time and then it's off to get my girl. The things that should be on this list are: mop floor, clean bathrooms, dust, vacuum and continue to organize personal finances...blah, blah, blah. (somehow laundry is "caught up" for a couple of days!)

Not quite sure why I felt the need to post this random, monotonous stuff, but there you have it! Probably because this is the repetitive life that I lead right now. I am grateful for visits from precious friends and moments of playing and laughing with my kids that make it all okay.

Music to my ears

The twins have taken to chasing each other around the house and giggling out of control when they catch one another. I just love that sound!

Another sound I *love* is hearing my firstborn son talking to the boys like I do, "You're okay. There's nothing wrong with you..." ;o)

Lazy Mayzie Is Calling!

And she wants a margarita, a book and liposuction.

The end.

(This is a personal re-telling of Horton Hatches the Egg)

Point A to B

I have been stuck at point A. Point A being a home that needs major organizing especially after all this re-modeling and having more work to do. Point B is an relatively organized and clean house. Now to convince myself to start moving in that direction instead of putting my feet up and reading a good book. ;o)

I wonder which will win out?

Peace out, My Peeps!

The Big Move

This re-model that we started back in mid-November feels a lot more like moving than I thought it would. We are finally seeing a light at the end of the tunnel and have relocated everyone (in groups of 2) to their own room. Tonight will be the first time in almost 16 months that the man and I have slept in a room without anyone else in it! At least we'll start the night that way... ;o)

I'm so excited I can't even stand it!

I'm Back!

After weeks of all kinds of sicknesses and such (the likes of which I won't go into here)...I'm back!

Did ya miss me?

Come on...maybe a little? ;o)
