Mission SLIMpossible Update

Totally Random Nonsense

February 27, 2013

It is with regret that I announce that I shot my wad on the SLIMpossible diet today. While at the hospital for most of the day, I found myself with about six minutes to scarf down some “lunch”. I made a quick trip to the hospital snack bar and settled on a bag of Doritos [...]

Mission SLIMpossible Update

February 13, 2013

So, we just rounded the corner into week five (of eight) and I am so happy to report I am down nine pounds. NINE! As in, almost ten! I am so stinkin’ happy about that because, well, NINE POUNDS IN FOUR WEEKS AND TWO DAYS. The nine pound loss makes all the 45-minute exercise sessions worth it. The [...]

What I Learned This Week

February 11, 2013

I had a glorious day. And by glorious, I mean there was no school today which means NO STUPID ALARM CLOCK FOR ME thankyouverymuch! And since there was no school, that also means I didn’t have to check any math homework. But, just in case you were wondering, Stevie did receive the requirements for yet another [...]

Just Some More Of My Crazy

February 6, 2013

It is Tuesday evening and I am watching Dance Moms. It is that time of the month and I would knock a joker flat-out right now for a chocolate cake donut connection donut. Folks, 39-year-old hormones do not play. Especially when they’ve been on a  five-week biggest loser quest. Phew. It feels good to get that off of my [...]

Pep In My Step

January 29, 2013

It was a beautiful day in our neighborhood. The good news is, it was a wonderful, beautiful, perfect for January 70 degrees. The bad news is, this… As much as I love have the JEEP in the garage on cold January mornings, I miss having the SKY here at the house for rare 70 degree days in [...]

Well, lookie there. It’s Tuesday already. And time for another award-winning edition of What I Learned this week. Only, I’ve never really won any awards.

My New Pal

January 23, 2013

I cleaned like a crazy person today. Actually, I cleaned and danced like a crazy person today. I had some clutter to put away, three week’s worth of mail to sort through, and some decor to change out. I linked up my iPhone with the bluetooth wireless speaker that McDaddy got for Christmas, blasted some Third Day, Toby Mac, and Selah and I [...]

What I Learned This Week

January 22, 2013

As always, I’ve acquired quite a bit of knowledge this week. Now, before you go and get all excited thinking I’m gonna share some profound, intellectual information, let me assure that will probably not be the case. I’m actually water-logged from drinking more than 100 ounces of water today (I didn’t meet my goal by the [...]
