Morale-O-Meter: Daily (2011)

I am having trouble using 43 things and so, while I love keeping track of big goals, little ones are not worth th frustration. :) I will still be working on weight loss, meeting goal and all my workouts, I just can’t work the damn Moral widget and I am going batty!

Went to my first basket ball game with Lizzy and PawPaw, so fun. Those things are like a circus!
Today I have a doctors appointment for my hand – I will update ASAP!

Hmmm. Maybe I will get back to y’all on this one!

My beautiful Lizzy is not feeling well and still I had to send her off to school. :( Also, I want to go running again and boo, I have to rake the day off to recoup! Oh well, better run tomorrow!

Zumba was awesome! Awesome and I left feeling alive and tired and so proud of me! If kids were home. It would have been a 10.
Sunday I picked up babies and we caught a parade on the way home. They didn’t throw much and it was a bit sunny as in SUNNY! Still we has a great day and if the kids were home with me today I would have had another 10!

I am giddy excited about the ZUMBAthon! To make it even better, and explain the 8, my baby doesn’t leave for vacation until the week AFTER next. So we still have lots of time to cuddle and love before she leaves!

The kids go off to my mother’s this weekend and I hate that. I miss them so much and feel so self indulgent when they are gone. The I feel guilty and upset with me. Not to mention my oldest is leaving next Thursday to hit vacation with my parents for a week and that makes me fell extra bad about going off to the ZUMBAthon this weekend. I should just stay curled up with her everyday. :(

I hate the part of being a parent where you have to be a BIG STINKIN’ MEANIE! I just want to have fun and be happy. I hate tears put there by mom, and silent treatments from eight year olds that don’t even realize that you are not supposed to talk during a real silent treatment, not just announce that that is what is going on and then a change of subject. *Sigh. So is life I guess. I am so lucky that it doesn’t happen often!

I am heading to the gym tonight and hoping to get a good, fast paced, jog in. I would like to see 5 mph for at least 20 minutes. Anything beyond that is just bonus!
I miss my little Lizzy and can’t wait to hang with her tonight. Also, what always make for a good day – a REALLY bad dream. Last night I had an awful dream, the kind that is SO real. When I woke up and realized it was all a dream I was so relieved! I is just awesome to be alive today!

Thank You, Lord!
I ran yesterday, and it never fails to amaze me what a difference that makes in my mood. Yay! Valentines day – and my baby gave me a bunch of cards she had made for me, and the GF gave me a doll I have been wanting! Yay! All in all, a good Monday. I am toying with the idea of hitting up a Zumba class, but I don’t know if that is in the stars!
