Happy Day

I really enjoyed my four day weekend. I managed to do very, very little. I like to think of it as mental health time. I woke up around 9 AM (unheard of for me) every day, eat breakfast, sit on the couch and watch The Amazing Race, eat lunch, sit on the couch and watch The Amazing Race, eat dinner, sit on the couch and watch The Amazing Race. It was an Amazing Race marathon, and it was heaven.


Doing our nails.

Things I'm thankful for today:
Being able to relax.
Being able to relax a little more.

Valentine's Day Result

I thought I would update you about what I ended up doing for Todd on Valentine's Day...well, not much. I didn't do the project I thought that I might attempt (I may try and do it for Father's Day or his birthday), and I didn't make brownies. I ended up making him dinner and a big huge cookie. Not very romantic, but he was busy working, trying to get some plans finished up, and so dinner and a cookie was it.
He seemed to enjoy it so I guess that is all that matters.


Enchilada casserole
(No picture of the salad and corn because frankly, it's boring).


The monster chocolate chip cookie.


Todd enjoying pazooki.


Lexx really enjoying pazooki.

Things I'm thankful for today:
Being let off work early.
Getting to surf the net without fighting with anybody over the computer.
A 4 (yes 4) day weekend - YIPPEEEEE

Valentines Day Fail


Just one example of the more creative side of me.

I suppose I should be planning where to go or what to buy Todd for Valentines Day, but I haven't. I find it a little ridiculous to spend a lot of money on one day so you can show your significant other just how much you love them. Todd and I love each other every day...I don't feel that we need to do indebt ourselves on one specific day, besides, isn't that what an anniversary is for? Maybe I'm the world's worst wife, maybe not?

I did have a DIY craft project that I thought I might try for Todd's Valentine Day card, but being realistic, it is WAY above my ability level and I don't see any way that I will finish the project in time. I'm not what one would call artistic or craftistic (I made that word up...do you like?). Fact is, I pretty much suck on the creative side. What? We can't all be talented, and for those of you who are, thanks for sucking up all the creative gene for the rest of us.

On second thought, maybe I'll just buy brownie mix, bake brownies and call it a day(nom, nom, nom). You can't go wrong with that!

What I'm thankful for today:
Getting to spend the weekend with my honey.
Being loved every day - yes Todd, I'm talking about you.
Brownie mix ;)

D to the ANG It (Dang It!)



Maybe I'll have to take up bodybuilding, just looks at that physique!

I've been doing pretty super working out on the treadmill, if I do say so myself. I think I may (or may not) have motivated Todd to start using it. So use it, he did. He did a 30 minute work out with different speeds and inclines. He finished the work out and went to take a shower. I hopped on the treadmill after him, was on it for about 2 minutes and boom...it froze. Todd has ordered parts for it, but my treadmill workout has been put on hold until the parts arrive.

I guess for now I'll have to start working out beyond the confines of my own living room...eeks.

Thing I'm thankful for today:
Baggy sweats
A warm house
A little puppy curled up on my leg

Here you go

To All You Nay Sayers

At the beginning of the month I was given a treadmill. It belonged to Dennis, but from what I understand he was using it to hang clothes from (I don't think this is unusual, as I have heard many people use their treadmills for this).

A little birdie told me that there is a wager going on about how much use I will get out of the treadmill. Well....I've been on it all but two days since it was dropped off at the house. Don't worry Aunt Vicki - I won't let you down.

Booyah baby! How about them apples :)


I'm looking pretty good for only working out for 2 weeks - hehehe.

Things I'm thankful for:

A three day weekend.
The treadmill to help me get healthy.
