Off the rails

Today I ate too much! I had pizza hut for lunch, 1 slice of BBQ pizza a quarter slice of Hawaiian, and HUGE salad. I had a slice of brownie that I made a few days ago, like 5 or 6 spicy chili Doritos, a slice of left over southwestern frittata that I made last night for dinner and then two fat free turkey dogs. UGH, I really pigged out. Well tomorrow I will be better! AND I didn't go to the gym today. I had to fast for some blood work done at my OB's office to see if I'm broken. So after that I just wanted to eat and I made really poor choices and should of followed up with the gym. But my laziness got the best of me. So I am publicly beating my self up, join in would you.

After my disgrace at the Hut Lydia (whom took a mental health day from school, total embarrassment yesterday at Social Studies which involved the whole class laughing at her and today she couldn't face them, she gets one pass day a year today was her day) and I went to Walmart for some senseless spending since it's that kinda day. I got some of the best smelling candles. One is Coconut Lime and the other is Pineapple Fusion. They smell super good and they were a steal at like 3.86 a candle. Then I got some scented oil for those little burners that have tea candles in them. It's called Citrus Tropical Fruit or something like that. My house is smelling YUMMY!

Ed ran off to New Orleans today with his dad. They are staying at some sheesheepoopoo house on Lake Pontchartrain for the weekend. Fishing, sight seeing, D-Day museum and outrageous meals sound like no fun to me anyway! Staying home ALONE with 3 kids sounds WAY more fun!! But that's ok, I go back in just a few more weeks anyway!

My anniversary is coming up. April 22nd I will have been married 14 years. I am so stumped on what to get him?? If he really want's something he just gets it. It makes it even harder being a stay at home mom, who doesn't do the bill anymore (I was an inch away from a nervous break down after Lydia was born and quit my job) to take large amounts of money from our account and he not know what it's for. Plus we do the if you can't pay cash you don't need it Dave Ramsey thing. So any suggestions you all could throw my way would be good ones. And he's a total geek!!! Loves all things geeky. Not the outdoorsy kinda guy. But does like sports to a degree. Loves Hockey.

Tomorrow I'm doing a baking day. Waffles, breads (quick and yeast) muffins, pancakes and monkey bars to set back in the freezer for a later morning. I'm looking forward to it. Just me and my kids. I think it will be fun for us. Speaking of kids today I taught Lydia how to add large sums in her head, it was fun watching her wheels turn as she was thinking. But she got the hang of it and was pumping out numbers at me as fast as I could throw her a math problem. She's such a smart kid. Today Claire had her Nursery Rhyme Parade at school she was Princess and the Pea (yeah yeah yeah, not a nursery rhyme I know). I took a pillow and some play peas from their kitchen and poked holes in them then sewed them to a travel pillow. She got to wear a past Halloween costume of Lydia's. It was an elaborate princess dress. She LOVED it, and she was SUPER cute.

Hope you all have a rocking Friday and a great weekend! I'm going to read now!
