{{{ .....clean / tidy monday.....}}}

Following Colleen's lead, I did PS CST and wow! I always forget how tough this series is! Change of dinner plans since I worked out so late-kids are having hot dogs, mac and cheese, and peas I'm going to make some tilapia, sauteed spinach, and sweet potato for me and Darrin.

Kate, glad to hear the girls are in the no cavity club Good job on sneaking your workout in between appointments. Dance just got easier-my dad made a surprise visit

Nina, relax! You're one of the most dedicated exercisers I know! Definitely set up date night! We're going to MSU this weekend to watch the football game with Darrin's college housemates and we're going out with some of my friends from high school on the 4th for some drinks and pool/darts And we're doing Family Night on Friday-Danica's choice

Angie, that is wonderful! You'll be the best auntie!

Hi CT ladies! It feels like forever since I've been able to post here. I've been reading daily but it seems like whenever I get to the end to post, something comes up. This furlough Friday schedule where the kids have no schools on Friday is kicking my butt! They are thinking of using emergency funds to put the kids back in school on Fridays effective Jan. and I hope it goes through. I've been having to homeschool to make up for what they don't learn in class. Anyway, I'm on my second to last week of Insanity. I did my fit test yesterday along with Core Cardio and Balance. Today's wo is the Max Intensity Circuit I believe. Eats the last few days have been pretty good. I did eat a cookie though that was yummy and homemade. Other than that, pretty clean.

Kate - You reminded me that I need to make an appt. for my kids with their dentist. Pool or addition, that's a hard one. Are you still getting your magnificent kitchen added? Is J walking more now? P is not walking on her own yet. She'll take a few steps then do the spaghetti legs. That's okay though, I like having her be a baby somewhat still.
Nina - You're way too hard on yourself. Your bad day eating is probably a better day of eating for me, lol.
Klaudia - Power shopping always counts for something even if it's for low impact cardio, lol. Did you get anything good? I am on a hunt for some new jeans.
Robin - Feel better and hope you get better soon.
Colleen - Hope you find a good job deal soon.

Anyway, off to do some errands like pay bills and call the dentist. Pomai has been on a weird sleeping schedule due to a new tooth coming through. Hopefully this is the last one for a bit. Waiting for her to nap then some work ahead then Insanity.

Mama's takin' a 5 minute mental health break!
Clean eats all day, even PC! Ellip and PUB abs tonight....I hope!

Nina, Normally it would be easier to go all at once but it just worked out better this time w/ their school schedules being so different. I hated carting Julia in and out of the cr seat all day - blech!
pumpkin bread....mmmmmm
Great Wo, as always!
What a long time for DH to be away! Yuck! You guys would def need a date night before he leaves. I thought the move meant that he wouldn't be gone as much?/???

Angie, No cheats for me!!!!
Enjoy your day tomorrow! I love quiet, normal days!

Klaudia, Lots of fun stuff ahead for you guys! Nice! What are the plans for Fam NIght?
^5 on a good wo! PS is the only series I don't have. Maybe if it goes on sale....

LIsa, Hey there!
No fridays for the kids? Yikes! Yeah, I would say use the Emerg$!
^5 on great wo's and clean eats!
Julia is not just walking, Girl is RUNNING! She loves it. She chases after the kittens otside and when she sees the bus come she runs like the wond to get to it yelling her word for "sisters!" Love it!
Hope P gets her sleep worked out - J woke up a couple times last night - grrrrrr
Not sure abt the kitchen - we won't start til the spring if we do it. Need to think more abt our long-term goals. We meet w/ our financial planner tomorrow.



Better go rejoin the fam.....peace!

klaudia, sounds like a fun family weekend! enjoy. and great wo!!

angie, enjoy being back to normal tomorrow.

kate, if i lived in the north, i'd want more inside space than out. pools are so much work - far better to know someone else who has one. just my 2 cents. i hate putting them in and out of the car all day too

lisa, hope p sleeps better and you had a good wo. new jeans, huh? sounds great. it will be a long time till i shop i think.

i miss dh off to bed, and a kick b%$#@ run tomorrowam!

fyi, my spacebar is sticky right now so forgive the typos, imtrying to be extra careful but theyre bound to happen!

well, 10:30 and finally have time to get on to say howdy - holy busy day batman!! 9:30 step class. JJ fell asleep in stroller on the way home so i walked for another hour then we played around at the library then home to make dinner for guests -- baked ham (yes, i am a bad jew in case you didnt know) mashed potatoes (i ate abt 2 tblsp) and roasted veggies. lunch was chick, rice and salad. brkfst yog, strawb, coffee. all in all i would say eats were mediocre =/ guests left past 9pm... so much fun but sooooo tiring, andTHEN clean up starts!!! so glad to be relaxing ib bed now =)

kate, i agree with nina, pools in cooler climes are too much work -- go for the amazing kitchen!!

nina, so sorry you are missing dh =( i dont envy you. one thing i always think of is what i can do that i enjoy that i prob wouldnt with him home (either i wouldnt enjoy it with him, like watching sex and the city, or i wouldn set aside the time for it, like a ridicuously long shower). it helps sometimes...

hi lisa!! i want to hear abt your fittest improvements!

kl, glad you got your wo in, even if late. and your dinner sounds good!

katie, lol at working all 5 days =)

robin, hope you are feeling better...

angie, no cheats till thxgiving, i will give it a go withyou!! that would vertainly help get ready for this wedding in december...
