It Has Been Awhile

since I have posted. But, I have been SUPER busy. I LOVE that with Daniel in school I have settled into more of a schedule and can no longer lounge around in my pj's all day long. I know those days will be missed, but I tend to get stuck in those kind of days.

For now, my days consist of getting up and doing any dishes from the night before (yea, I'm usually too tired after making dinner) and then throwing in a load of laundry if I don't have to shower and get ready. Then it is off to school for Daniel.

My friend and I decided we are going to work out and do P90X EVERY day except for Sunday. So, on days she is not working, I drop Daniel off and go work out. If she is working, I run my errands, grocery shop, volunteer in Daniel's class or watch another mother's kids so she can volunteer. Those are just some ideas of what I do on days I don't work-out.

Two and a half hours later (it seems much shorter), I pick him up, we eat lunch and then it is quiet time. I always have good intentions to accomplish so many things during quiet time, but I've just come to the conclusion that this is "Me Time." I nap, watch TV, read, take a bath or anything I want to do for an hour and a half. Ahh . . . I even set a timer so I don't overindulge.

Then it is time for helping Daniel with his homework and pretend to help Coral with whatever she is imagining is her homework. After this, we straighten up the house- every thing in its place for when Daddy comes home! Then I start dinner.

From dinner on, it is the countdown til bedtime- eat, clean up, read stories, brush teeth, read scriptures, prayer, tuck kids in and then veg out until I go to bed or I go work out if I didn't do it during the day.

I HATE WORKING OUT, but it is good for me. Hopefully I will get used to it and not feel so tired all of the time. I am grateful I have a place to work out and a friend to work out with.

Now, if I could just find enough energy and time in the day to get all the millions of other things done. . . I know we all wish for that.

And Saturdays . . . I now spend cleaning my house because I usually don't get anything done during the week. "Saturday is a special day, A day to get ready for Sunday!" Yes, this rings true.

Now what do I do if we are out of town on Saturday?

For my few friends and family who have been wondering where I have gone, now you know. I still love you and hope you understand!
