Friday, July 6th

Yesterday was my 28th birthday. I woke up to flowers, which I always love. We didn’t do much most of the day. Jacob worked, I worked out and took care of kids like I usually do, and then later in the evening Patti came over to watch the boys so that Jacob and I could go out to dinner and a movie with Bec and Jud. They dropped Sadie off to Patti too. We went to Olive Garden and then to see the new Spiderman movie, and we all liked it. I ate healthy the whole day until we went to dinner, and then I justified my cheating by saying that it was my birthday. Food will be the death of me, I just love it so much! I don’t eat a lot, but I wish I could. And I wish it could all be unhealthy. But then I’d be fatter than I already am. We had a good night, though.

Today Jacob was home, but we didn’t do anything. He did a few things around the house, I worked out and cleaned, and then we took Logan and Teagan to the doctor for their well checks. Logan was 14.2 lbs today, so he’s a nice healthy growing boy. And Teagan was 35lbs and right around 50% for everything. So good healthy boys. After the appointment we came home, the boys played outside, I made dinner, and that’s about it. I did register for classes starting in the fall. I will be going full-time again to finish my degree in Speech Pathology. When I say finish my degree, I mean I have like 90 credits left after this semester. I suppose I won’t be finishing anytime soon. I also made big plans for our kitchen makeover that we will start one of these days. I have grand ideas but not a grand budget. The story of my life. I actually think that’s the story of most people’s lives. And the countertop I need for our new island is sold at Ikea, but there’s not an Ikea near us. Stupid Ikea.

Well, it’s late. My kiddies are sleeping, and I should be too. Same ol’ story. I’m always so tired but just can’t seem to tear myself away from my late-night personal time. I just love it so much. And I need it.

Oh, and tomorrow is day 6 of Insanity. So that means it’s my last workout for this week, and then I get Sunday off. My body is sore and tired. I have been sore since Tuesday, and it hasn’t gone away. Sunday will quickly become the most anticipated day of the week, I’m sure of it.  Goodnight.
