The Last Straw

Here’s my little oompa loompas and Willy Wonka. They went to an early halloween celebration tonight. We repeat the whole getting dressed up process tomorrow. Yippee. Not sure what is up with my one son’s facial expression. I guess he is making an oompa loompa face. But naturally, in the only other pic of all [...]

I don’t know about you guys, but the SNL thing “How’s it go, eskimo…wha’ ya know, eskimo?” cracks my **** up!!! It takes like nothing and suddenly that pops in my brain. So as I was running, all bundled up in my new winter duds, I just kept hearing the eskimo part of the Sarah [...]

I seem to be hiding from my diet/exercise thing. Last Friday, I opted for the pizza and declared that I would be back on track the next day. But in reality, I have found myself getting sucked into old bad habits like taking bites of stuff here and there and not counting stuff and slacking [...]

O. M. G.  Did I pay for yesterday’s pizza or WHAT?!? My digestive system is in total uproar. Rioting over the fat that I consumed yesterday. I slept horribly. Couldn’t get to sleep. Then couldn’t stay asleep.
So I kept listening as I lay awake early, early this morning. Wondering if we were going to have [...]

Let it be known that I am throwing myself OFF OF THE WAGON!! This is no innocent fall from the wagon. No “oops, I fell off”.  Nobody is pushing me off the wagon. I am taking ONE GIANT LEAP OFF OF THIS FRIGGIN’ WAGON-TO-NOWHERE!!!
Tonight’s planned dinner will be delayed until tomorrow. For tonight I shall [...]

I got no reward for resisting the urge to eat last night. My weight is 146. That’s .2 up from yesterday. 
Run will probably be at the track at the school today. Can’t use that track during school, but with just the teachers there today it is allowed. Would like to do a neighborhood run [...]

Seriously. This day! ARG! First of all, I knew that last night I knew I was sitting in the middle of mess and yet instead of doing something about it, I gawked at stuff online forever. So, the mess: dishes all over the kitchen, laundry on the bed, dirty laundry waiting to be washed. Huge, [...]

Well, after much deliberation, I opted for the neighborhood run this evening. There was a seminar on avoiding injury tonight for my 5k training thingie, but I didn’t really want to go. Mainly, it was a good time for my run because all of the kids have choir practice. I considered running downtown on the [...]

ME for the Great Pumpkin Disaster. This morning was chaotic. kindergarten son has a field trip. So he had to have all disposable stuff in his lunch. I don’t usually have packaged stuff and their drink is always their reusable water bottle which I couldn’t send. Well, to get to the point I ended up [...]

Woke up to 33 degrees this morning, thus it is time to switch to my winter breakfast. So I cooked a couple days worth of steel cut oats and while that was cooking, I worked out the calories on fitday to see how much I could fit in for the same calories as I had [...]
