Great weekend. We went a friend's house last night and had the best time. We only have one "couple friends" that we really, really enjoy hanging out with. It is my husband's high school best friend and his fiance. We always have great conversation, laughter and fun! The night gets gone too fast though. We got there at around 5 yesterday afternoon and before we knew it it was 1am. They live almost an hour away, so we were quite tired this morning when the kids had us up at 7am. Ugh! I miss the days of sleeping in. All our other friends, either I don't care for the wife, or my husband doesn't care for the husband. Oh well. They cooked a great steak dinner, with baked potato and salad. Man, it was good!! I brought angel food cake with strawberries and lite cool whip, so that was better than a big fat chocolate cake or pie! And I passed on the Margaritas. But I was fine with that. I don't drink often, I am usually always the DD. The scale was up a little this morning, but we ate late, around 9pm and I am not used to that. So I hope to see the scale drop back down tomorrow.

I start staying with Grandma tomorrow. She got to go home Friday and is doing quite well. Some challenges here and there, but overall doing better than expected. I am nervous about tomorrow. But looking forward to the change as well. I won't have internet there, so that stinks, but I went to the library and checked out a few books to keep on hand. I may not be here quite as often, but will definitely check in when I can. Have a great week everyone!!

Well, I had a lazy day yesterday and it was great!!

After my daughter got home from school we went for a brisk walk, well, I walked briskly to keep up with her on her bike. Then towards the end, I actually JOGGED down the last 2 roads!! WOW. That felt great. It made me want to really start trying to jog more. It might have been a 1/4 of a mile. But I must admit, I really need to get a super duper sports bra!

Today I got up, took the kids to school/daycare, then went to Grandma's apartment and cleaned her fridge out really well, and took stock of things, and went grocery shopping for her. It was fun. I am looking more and more forward to it. It will be nice going over to her apartment each day for a few weeks to get me out of the house. I have been home too long!! And the addition to our house should be done in about 3 weeks maybe. Depending on the weather.

The guys laid all the block yesterday on the addition. And now the lumber guys just showed up with a truckload of lumber. I also went to Lowe's today and picked out the paint color, and hardwood flooring color. Exciting!! I will post pictures soon of the progress.

Had a grilled chicken sandwich for lunch. And I think I will do stir-fry veggies and chicken over brown rice for dinner. That is a family favorite. And easy peasy.

This has been my first week without both my kids, yet I have been busier than ever. Errands, field trips, dr appts, ect....but today I am being a bum. I have 2 movies I rented and plan on doing nothing but a load of laundry. Then I am going to be LAZY LAZY LAZY, and soak in my quiet time at home i have been wanting for the last 2 years!!

Carter has adjusted SO WELL to daycare. I am truly amazed. I really feel it is all about timing. If we had tried this 6 months ago, it could have been awful. But he talked about daycare and wanted to go play. He really has loved it. Wakes up at 7 each morning ready to go!! So that makes me feel so much better.

Riley had a field trip to the zoo yesterday. I was a chaperone. It was cold and rained on us the whole time. But that doesn't slow down 120 kindergartners. We had a good time. I also found out good news about the school situation. They have re-zoned our neighborhood, and even though we are suppose to be in the city, they still have Riley down for the county schools, so we are hoping to just squeak by until we can figure something else out. Fingers crossed. Her teacher told me they had her on the list already for 1st grade so she should be automatically registered at the school we wanted.

I was trained at the nursing home on Monday on how to care for Grandma. I really learned a lot and feel much better about it. So Monday will be the first day of our journey together. Still nervous though.

I applied to college. I just have to take the entrance exam to see if I have retained any knowledge over the past 10 years. Hopefully I will pass and be able to skip the remedial classes. lol. We'll see!

Ok. Well, I think that is about all I have to report. Oh, well, I guess since this is fatsecret, i could mention my diet lately. I have done well this week. Walked all day yesterday at the zoo, and then rode the bike for 30 minutes last night. The scale is up a pound and a half and that frustrates me. But, hopefully it will go back down in a hurry!

Today is a HARD day for me! I just took my son to daycare for the first time EVER! Man, I don't know if I can make it through this day. The daycare center has internet access which is NOT a good thing when they are starting out. I just keep watching him and can't stop. Poor little man. He is just standing there crying and crying and wiping his little tears, and crying some more. He has been standing in the same spot for 15 minutes just crying. There are 3 teachers in the classroom and they just keep walking by him. I just want to say "HUG HIM!!" "love HIM!!" don't just pretend he is not there! He probably feels so abandoned and lonely. I have to stop watching! He was sitting at the table eating his breakfast and a little boy walked by, took his cup of milk and dumped it on his food. Poor little guy. He just looked at the boy like "what the @#$%%!" And then walked away. I think he was done eating though, but still. OK. I really have to quit watching.

Women's retreat: Well, no juicy details there. It was pretty good. Not something I want to do again. But it was ok. Lots of time with the mother in law. But not too bad.

Weight: I am down a 2 lbs for the week. I was down 3 but gained one back over the weekend.

Work: Today I go to the nursing home to let the nurses show me how to care for grandma. How to help her up, different exercises to do with her, ect.. She gets releases on Friday. The guys came today to start building on the addition to our house. So, hopefully it will be done is 2 or 3 weeks if the weather is good to us.

That's about it. I am going to TRY to enjoy my week with no children during the day, and do some things for myself. We'll see!
