We’re snowed in. Well, we could probably get out if we really wanted to.
My friend Liz and her two boys were supposed to come spend the day with us today (Monday). We had some super fun stuff planned. Boo.
I was supposed to speak to a sweet group of MOPS gals here in Columbus tomorrow (Tuesday). Boo.
The girls were supposed to be in school, and Nina was going to teach herself Algebra or something while I got some writing done. (Not that I would’ve actually gotten any done. I’m in a big ol’ s-l-u-m-p.) Boo.
I’m ready for spring. I’ve heard rumors that it’s not coming this year. At all. Boo.
I was supposed to be Shredding my muffin top away, but I pulled some muscle in the back of my right knee last week. I took 3 days off, then gave it a whirl this morning. No go. Bummer. Now I suppose I’m going to have to change my eating habits (which needs to happen anyway, as the Shred isn’t really helping). Boo.
I’m just a bundle of optimism today, aren’t I?
I do have one HAPPY. HAPPY 30th BIRTHDAY to my beautiful cousin KELLY!! I hate that you live all the way at the bottom of Florida. I love you! I miss you! Hope your birthday is AMAZING!!
Any ideas for something fun I can do with my girlies today? (and if the idea necessitates self-sacrifice and selflessness, please pray for me as you suggest it)
I don’t even have the Shred, so you’re ahead of me. Sigh…we’ve all had those days, Alexander. I’m late reading this. Hope all is now tickety-boo. xxxooo
Yeah, it’s past my bedtime so I’ve got nothing creative for you but I just wanted to tell you that I had to stop Shred because it was KILLING my knees. Granted, I had bad knees to start with, but I don’t think it’s a very knee-friendly DVD. That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it.
Haha
and I dont mean that in a “I’m laughing at you” sort of way. It’s just that my side is finally starting to feel a little better, and then I partook (is that even a word?) in a snowball fight and now I’m sore all over again! haha – and I’m only 24 — this does not bode well . . .
I pulled a muscle in my side doing yoga like 2 weeks ago and I still haven’t worked out – I swear it hurts too bad! I’m so out of shape! haha
You got some great ideas from this post on things to do indoors. Score! I hope it ended up being a great day. How ’bout I go up there for a week to enjoy the snow, and you can come down here and enjoy the sun and my early bloomin’ daffodils?
shoot, I’m late on my blog reading today.
we like to pile up on the couch with all of our library books and snuggle and read.
any empty cereal boxes?? we like to take those and create a new front of the box with our own kind of cereal…Connor’s latest was Mars Munchies “a taste that’s outta this world” and he dug stuff out of the craft bucket to change the box!
You cracked me up when you said to pray if it required your assistance in any way!! Not that I know ANYTHING about that kind of praying, ahem.
Have you made the Pioneer Woman’s breakfast puffs? 2 sticks of butter. so good.
Also, we make a tent in the living room and have pirates vs sharks and make ava walk the plank. I know, she is going to be tramautized as an adult.
