Getting Organized

Really how long does it take to make a post and let your peeps know that you are alive and well. I must say I have been lacking in the posting and commenting lately.

So I thought I had better drop a line before the end of the month and I look like a totally lackadazickle blogger.

So today it's short and sweet but that's because I gotta boogy today to get some work work done, pick up the Bug for Therapy today and get home to clean up the pig sty make some dinner and get my S H I T together for a scrapbooking fair tomorrow at my work. Yikes! I wish I would started sooner.

Luckily I have been working in my studio and have a few things put together but I have to prepare some catalogues and flyers for my "table"

Good Team! Hey I need some coffee! STAT!

Thursday's Sunshine

Another shiny day here!

Woke up this morning to a chorus of "Rise and Shine" from my kidlets. Bless them. At 6:20am. Why are they morning people like their father????

But we had a great start to our day, breakfast, dressed and ready to go by 8AM so I can't complain.

We had our first scrapbooking club meeting at work last week. didn't get much done but we are all happy we got started.

So we have another meeting next week. I hope to get more done.

I am holding steady with my 7lb weight loss so I realize that if I'm going to lose anymore I probably have to get my ASS moving :( So I started walking at lunch 3 times a week with another friend at work. We are both hoping we can upgrade to running for a few minutes by the end of the month. If I lose another 7lbs I will be really happy. I could probably lose 5-6 more after that but I also want to eat chocolate and have a nice cold beer sometimes so I reserve that 5-6 lbs for my summer lifestyle.

Sending lots of creative and empowering energy today to those of my friends who need it.

Cheers

Mudpuppies

Well with so many of my fellow bloggers doing great and inspiring things... an invitation came across my desk this week that I could not refuse.

Although my TOPS (aka FAT Club) is going well. I am down about 7lbs. I realize that in order to maintain and keep losing I actually do have to do some ACTIVITY (there I said it outloud) UGH!

As my company is sponsoring a run/walk for the Children's Treatment Centre that my son attends I thought this would be a great event to work towards and participate in.

It is something that is very important to me and so hopefully enough motivation for me to get off my ASS and participate.

So our family is participating in the 3km part of the Annual Mudpuppy Chase to raise money for KidsAbility. WOOT! (to borrow an exclamation from Kal)

Phase one of training:
Walking the dog 30 mins each night! We'll see how the weekend goes!

Happy Friday!

My thoughts are with my friend who is having a sad week and needs lots of energy sent her way! May you have the light that lifts your heart my friend.

The Good Stuff

It's a beautiful day in the neighbourhood.

The sun is shining the birds are singing and today Bugaloo woke me up with this...

"Mom"
"Yes"

"Rise and Shine"

I love that kid.

Then we went to his sisters room where they greeted each other with "Hi sister, Hi brother. I LUB You!"

Warmed my heart.....until they wouldn't eat their breakfast, ran around the house half naked refusing to put clothes on.

I don't care who you are that's funny!

Hello

My goodness, it's been awhile, such a busy week. I have had so many meetings this week it is ridiculous.

My TOPS club is going pretty well I am down about 7 lbs! Not too shabby. I can really see it in my clothes so that is cool. Well not so cool since I bought all new clothes before I came back to work and now they look too baggy.

The kids are great, but my mom and sister and her hubby and kid have been really sick for like 6-8 weeks its been crazy I feel so bad for them. So I did what any good parent would do. I sent them a care package from the pharmacy and banned them from our house! Nice!

This was not such a wise decision as my sister cuts our hair and we all look like shaggy sheep dogs. So I hope she is feeling better real soon.

I wish I had time for a longer post maybe in a day or two.
