Finally Friday

Found at 5am by my sister.  Comfy huh?

Creepy cute pedicure chairs at the nail salon

  • so relieve it's Friday and I'm feeling better
  • I got some good numbers for work and I'm feeling pretty good about that
  • I found a decent nail salon today.  Yay for trying something new and getting decent results
  • I lost 5lbs in 2 weeks!  This is includes last week of not following hardly at all.  Yay me.
  • 15 lbs in 9 weeks.  Woo to the Hoo
  • I tried to splurge today and I still have 2pts left to eat.  Fail, kind of!  I can make that up by having Fat Tuesdays tomorrow
  • All checked in and packed up for tomorrow's flight.  I need the weather to clear up early so my drive to the airport isn't too treacherous.  Yay for going to my happy place.  Some people have Disney, I have Vegas!

Being Sick Sucks


I didn't call in sick today.  I didn't need to; there was so little work to be done I don't think I missed much.  Tomorrow I've really got to turn it up so I can have some decent numbers for the week.  Then again if I feel this bad tomorrow I'm for sure using a sick day.  This cold has started to kick my butt, pretty sure it's early bedtime tonight, maybe even some extra meds to knock me out.  I hate waking up with a snot puddle on my pillow and crusties on my nose.  I have to get better soon, Vegas sick is not fun!

Average to LOL

Just layin around, playin with Puppy Brite

Coloring?  More fun to put crayons in the box

Halp!  HALP!  I cants reach!

Today started off as just another snowy morning in WI and ended pretty well.  I watched the unit across the street get busted into.  I think it's in foreclosure and it was the bank's mgmt company coming to change the locks.  Made for a nice distraction while I did my work out.  

Afterwards I went over to see Team Ingram.  That baby can make my day like no one else!  She immediately wanted cuddles and books to be read, and I'm happy to oblige.  Her book of choice was Go the Fuck to Sleep.  I'd never read it before and had such a hard time not laughing.  That author is one smart cookie, entertain parent and baby all at once.  I also got to see BooBoo brush her teeth.  OMG that's funny, any kid brushing their teeth is pretty funny to me.  I always think it's good that they all fall out.  The best best part is making her laugh.  My sister found that massaging her shoulders causes fits of giggles.  Just thinking of it makes me laugh.  I really need to video it so I have it for sad days.  I thought about it laying in bed last night and started laughing out loud to myself.

Tonight I'm catching up on Millionaire Matchmaker.  I love love love this show.  I wish I could afford to have Patty set me up.  I think she and I would be BFF.

Sunday Funday

BooBoo doesn't want to sleep, so let's play in Mommy's bathroom


What a great day!  Had brunch with Sue at Cafeteria, it was just OK.  Not really a good bang for your buck on breakfast food.  We tried to get tattoo's but it was appt only.  That was my fear, so now we are going to look at having them done in Vegas.  I'm normally super on top of my game when it comes to these kinds of things, but this time around I just can't be bothered.

Once I got home Sissy, BooBoo and I went for the first walk of the season.  33 really isn't too warm, but the sun was out, the breeze was light, and I needed to get in some steps for the day.  We did great and got in over 3 miles!  I'm still not warm right now, but I know I'll sleep like a baby.  It's such a shame we are getting another deluge of snow starting tomorrow morning.  My roads and trails will all be slick and impassable for a week or so.  I've got to keep up my momentum so I can lose some pounds this week and try to stay on track in Vegas next weekend.

5 DAYS TO MY HAPPY SPOT!!


During my drives today and even at brunch I really started to evaluate the fact that I need a boyfriend like yesterday!  At our meeting is was glaringly obvious I'm the only single one (2 others are, but in very committed relationships).  I'm working hard at reframing how I think about men, and relationships and trying to let go of my poor moral choices, but it's not easy.  It's nearly impossible to meet men when my favorite activities involve my couch or hanging out in areas with a predominantly gay male population.  I think it's time to review my resolutions for the year, implement something new and possibly rethink online dating.

Family Time




Sometimes you get photo bombed by your baby.  Sometimes that baby really really really wants the treat in your hands!

Today was all about family.  Team Ingram and I went out for brunch, then we headed up to see mom and dad.  They are about 1 day away from killing each other due to mom being housebound from her surgery.  She's doing fantastic so I hope they can get out a little tomorrow, they really really needed the 4 of us to come up and provide a new audience.  It was a big day for lil BooBoo, she had bacon, blueberries, pizza and donuts.  She's 100% American :)

Tonight I've cleaned out my DVR and searched high and low for tattoo ideas.  I've pinned a bunch I like and I'm pretty sure I've made up my mind on the word love and the font.  I found a killer upper arm cupcake tattoo.  It would be my whole bicep and I'm really thinking I could take that leap if I can find the right artist.  I think life is too short to not express yourself as you want, and after conversing with my bosses and their reactions to my teammates full arm coverage I'm not worried.  I'll always keep things on the more conservative side, and able to be hidden, but it's time to take some big steps in my self expression.  To quote the annoying hipster kids "YOLO!"

Little moments





Today was nothing special; traveled home, ran some errands, lunch with a friend and some couch time.  I did get a work out in and tomorrow I have to buckle down so I lose something before I go to Vegas in a WEEK!  Yay for sunshine and gambling.

Tonight it's a little bride show and some Duck Dynasty.  I'm exhausted still and I'm crawling into bed at 9pm!
