I saw this and it made me laugh.

Marla - I find that website very intriguing! Not sure if I would have the guts for that yet but I'm looking forward to seeing how it motivates you! I also agree with the idea that you have to plan for bumps in the road. I've discovered that very thing when it comes to other areas of my life as well. I need to be prepared for days when in sick, or overwhelmed, or depressed, etc.

Laura - When does Jason get back? Good job on keeping up with your homework even with him gone!

Sherry - I hope you and your little girl get better soon! I'm. glad your son is doing well in school!

April - Hopefully your kiddo gets better as well!

We did not go to the zoo! I ended up with stomach issues as well, so it was a day of sitting around a lot. Our house as so messy you couldn't even walk through it, so I spent the day picking up one small area and then sitting and resting for an hour or two before starting on the next area. Now the house is organized again so I just need to deep clean the nasty room. Dumped a bunch of baking soda down to soak up the smell and such. Need to vacuum, clean off the carpet cleaner and then reclean the carpets. Thankfully hubby is now at his weekend and will be home to help today so it can be a joint effort. I took a three hour nap yesterday as well and so now by this morning I'm feeling practically normal again. Hoping to get my long bike ride in tonight and get back into training finally!

I have a staff meeting and a meeting with our VBS leader this morning. Then I have the rest of the day to just clean and rest.

Happy Tuesday everyone!

Glad your better Val, you sure do more than me while sick! I would be sitting in a chair all day reading, but I know looking at mess can make you feel worse...

Sherry your turn to heal, hope its soon!

Laura your commitment inspries me!

April hope you have a easier day.

Ok day 1 knowing money to charity I hate is on the line, ate no desserts, no wine and other than 2 small healthy crackers no extra snacks. Ate healthy all meals. Amazing what money can do.

We are tight on budget and also knowing hubby would be super mad if I donated to anyone right now. Cards are still up from buying furniture and paying for airbnb hawaii up front and new water tank.

3 out of the 8 weeks are going to be tough, this week is one of them traveling to visit daughter and mom for Easter and eating out a bunch of days. But I started anyway knowing life will always have something.

On and off rain today will try and get walk in. Yesterday had a break but my knee was acting up off and on. I have been hiking and walking a bunch of steps lately, so gave it a rest.

Thanks Val and Marla!

Tomorrow is my last day at work this week and then I'm off Thurs-Sun for a long weekend. Thought would be doing fun spring break stuff but will be laying low with kiddo.

Got TOM and am craving Dairy Queen. That specific idea makes it easy for me not to eat cocoa almonds, pudding, etc. Not going out tonight for junk food...
