hump day

I'm feeling pretty worn out today. Yesterday I did a bunch of cleaning and today I just don't feel like doing much of anything. I'm hoping all my blood levels (protein, vitamins and iron) are ok. I go for blood work next week and will find out then. I'm upset too because Monday we woke up to the alarm on our septic going off. We have to replace the pump, but can't do anything about it until hubby gets paid friday. And he's been gone working overtime since Monday afternoon so I'm paranoid something is going to happen with the septic before he gets back. I'm off to get the older 2 from the bus, then take The Girl to dance class.

Another Monday

I'm down another 2 lbs this week. Total of 28#. I decided to try to do my TaeBo dvd this morning. It's the first attempt at it since the surgery. I got through 30 min of the 45 min dvd then started to feel light headed so I got some water and quit. Will try again tomorrow. I forgot how much TaeBo kicks my ass when I'm not in shape! I definitely need to start doing some crunches. My belly is getting saggy already.
The Ferocious Beast (aka Christopher) went back to school today after a 2 week break. He was really looking forward to seeing his teachers and the other kids. He came home tired but is refusing to take a nap, so I'm sure by the time we are done with The Girl's t-ball practice he will be a total beast.

TGIF!

It has been a long and busy week. But what else is new. A lot of running around with the kids. One day I went into my 8 yo class to help out. Today we had an ice cream social with our Brownie troop and another. The girls had tons of fun. I didn't even feel like I was missing anything not having ice cream. And anyone who knows me knows that before surgery ice cream was *my thing*! I could eat a pint a night if I really let myself. I didn't even want it today. I've actually been having a hard time remembering to eat. I'm not really hungry much anymore. I have to keep reminding myself to get food. I even made up a schedule and posted it on the fridge with meal times and when to take my vitamins and meds.
Tomorrow my oldest starts baseball practice, then Monday my 6 yo starts her t-ball practice. And they'll be even more running around to do! I was asked to be team mom for my 8 year olds team so I said I would. Just one more thing to do! Tonight my daughter has a friend here that will be sleeping over. So, I'm sure we'll be up late. I hope I get some sleep tonight!
