Journal de graciepoo, 05 mars 09

I did what I said yesterday, and focused on my abs. I did 100 crunches and other tummy exercises. I really need to do that daily. there is no reason I can't during the day. I spend 75% of my day in the floor with my son anyway.

We found out that Grandma's released date got postponed and it is now March 26 rather than this Friday. Which is good for us. Now we have a couple more weeks to get everything sorted out.

The forecast for this weekend keeps getting better and better. Now it is saying Sunny with a high of 75!! Yay!! I cannot wait to get my flower beds back in action! I also have a ton of the kids summer clothes from last year that I need to put on eBay. So that is on the itinerary for next week.

I have also committed to going on a women's retreat with my mother-in-law. I am perplexed as to why i did that. We get along fine, we just aren't super close. We can chit chat and make small talk, and are fine when the kids are with me, but we have never really spent a long amount of time together alone. And I have been in their family for almost 10 years. I guess I thought maybe it would be a good opportunity to build more of a relationship with her outside of my kids. I don't know. My husband even commented on how I keep doing things that are WAY out of my comfort zone. ?????

Well, it's almost Friday! I hope you all have a great day!

Update: I was really wanting pizza, so badly, so I took a lite English muffin, split it in half, spread some tomato sauce on it, a few turkey pepperoni and mushroom with 2% italian cheese blend. baked in the oven at 425 until golden brown. YUMMY! Cured my craving. Only 290 calories for both halves and very little fat. My mom used to make these for us as kids. My kids love them too. They just think I am making them special mini-pizzas, they don't realize how much better it is for them.
