Today I felt like Martha Stewart...cooking up a storm and a prisioner in my own home...
I picked up the girls and took them to the park. I saw someone from the Boys and Girls club, but they didn't recognize me. People that know me without children don't recognize me when I have them and people that know me with children can't recognize me without them.
I met a mommy w her 3 children, her husband is a pastor and just moved her from an 85,000 people city (I didn't metioned I moved from a 13,000,000 people one)...all I could blurt when she told me which church he was preaching at was "I went to a funeral there, it's a gorgeous building"...Good Job Me!!!
We came home and I made the slim version of strawberry shortcake: spongy store bought thing remember I'm foreign), sliced strawberries (not simmered in sugar), and (key thing) instead of whipped cream, sour cream mixed w sugar (It's supposed to be sweetener but I don't want to cut too many calories).
We also had the yummy leftovers of the food I made last night: hamburger meat, onion, shredded fiesta blend cheese, eggs and mixed veggies...It didn't look good but it was delicious. Kyrsten and Olivia agreed. I've come to terms w the fact that eventhough every now and then I can make things that taste good....my food doesn't look good...But I can live with that.
At a point today I was so "done" with my children (aka 0% patience left), that I told them "Mommy is going to take a shower by herself, do not open the door, mommy will be out". And I took a 15 min shower. Not very safe, but a lot safer than Mommy staying in the living room...
Olivia fell asleep pretty early so I assume she'll be up early tomorrow too...yey!!!!
I'm excited for the weekend, maybe I can go to te river w the girls, to the sand bank...
Michael said he'd come tomorrow finish some projects...Let's hope he does...I've been working on cleaning up the garage and I really want him to throw away as much as possible.
Another thing...My lunch workouts are going pretty well, today I sped in the ellyptical for 10 minutes...Felt good...I din't know if my body is any less flabby but psychologically I feel better..plus, if I can manage to get tan I will look slimmer and toner and not need to excercise or lose weight (good strategy, huh?)...
Ok, enough blabbling.
Have a fabulous weekend!!!
