Hooray for a short week! We have professional development tomorrow and Friday, so today is my last day with the kiddies until next Monday! WAHOO!!
I am watching the Chilean Miner Rescue and wow… talk about emotional. It is definitely one of the coolest things I have ever watched. Is anyone else watching it?
Thanks for all the sweet comments about my mixed emotions over my upcoming one year anniversary. You are all the best. I am definitely excited, but still feeling some kind of anxiety over the whole thing almost being here. I am also struggling with myself – last year at this time I was in the best shape of my life, my hair was so healthy, my nails long and strong, my skin clear, I had a little tan… and now I feel like a mushy gushy frumpmaster. I worked out twice in the past 5 days… for the first time in over a month. I have had no time to work out! I wanted to be fit and fab for my hubsby this weekend but, yah, not gonna happen.
Last year I was on my way to Florida today… read about how I was feeling there! I was rather ill…
I went through a lot of that when I first got married. Especially the not having time for the gym part. Unfortunately, I’ve come to realize it’s just part of growing up and sometimes as much as we want to do something, we just can’t. I haven’t been to the gym in a while and it’s killing me but I know I’ll get back to it when things calm down for us. Until then I just try to eat healthier and not drink a lot. I even keep hand weights in my living room so that if I get some time to watch t.v I can lay on the floor and play with them. Good luck, eventually it all evens out and you’ll figure out a schedule for yourself to be able to fit it all in.
We didn’t go crazy for our one year… We went to Fogo de Chao in Baltimore and got a hotel room for the night. Hubs works weekends so we just worked with the time we had.
Yay for short weeks of school!!
Way cute little kitty picture you found!
Hope your anniversary celebration is amazing 🙂
YAY for humpdays!! I adore that picture and it’s so true – deeeep breaths! 🙂
btw- i used my adorable koozie this morning and got so many compliments 🙂
Keep your chin up, lady! Mr. Bear loves you for who you are on the inside more than what you are on the outside – but I understand how you are feeling. That was me this summer and I finally said ‘enough’ and started doing something about it. it’s hard, but you can do it. also – i think the last thing you need to do is work out, but i understand what you mean about feeling frumpy. my secret? I keep some dumbbells close to the couch so whenever I find myself sitting down to be lazy, I pick those up and do exercises while watching tv. Now I know you probably don’t have much time to be lazy…but just sharing 🙂
Also, I sat in front of the TV this morning and cried like a baby as I watched the rescue efforts. Truly amazing.
Oh no! It’s been so long…I don’t remember!!! That’s terrible…And I used to write romance novels…how can I not remember what I did for my 1 year Wedding anniversary???
I remember now…My husband and I took a very long walk. We were living in a remote mountain village, without a car, and it would have been too difficult to go down into civilization!We made a fabulous dinner afterwards complete with candles and fireplace (March)and music and slow dancing (I was in the first months of being pregnant!).
I haven’t thought of that in years…thanks for asking. Nice memory!!
Happy anniversary to you!!
Ann
Oh darling, I have had those feelings too. And the feelings about the shape you were in at “wedding time”. Yeesh. I’m slowly coming to terms that I’ll never look like that again! Not only that, but the fact that it’s okay!
For our 1 year anniversary we took a trip to Universal Studios (I’ve never been) and Disney World (my favorite place!). What are you two doing to celebrate??
