CHANGE!!! PLEEZE!!!

I'm in this slump of lack of change. Lyle has been working SO HARD at work (12 hour shifts) and I'm SO proud of him!!...

...it's just that I'm getting up, going to class just because I'm SO bored being alone, sit through class, come home at about 4:30 or 5:30 on some days, take a 30 min break, go to the store/clean house/do dishes/clean up Jaz's poop-which ever is needed that particular day, walk Jaz, get home, make dinner, Lyle get's home at 8, eat dinner, watch a tv show, LYle falls asleep, and then we go to bed. Day after day...same thing and I'm finding that I am grumpy at Lyle just because of this slump-and it's not his fault!

I am SO ready for and NEED CHANGE!

Thanks to Erin, I will be trying to eat a little healthier (since you really don't try to eat healthy when you don't feel productive and healthy) and go back to the gym (that's tiring with walk to class, Jaz, and then the gym, but I have to do something before I go crazy!) and hopefully I will feel better about myself and then be happier so that I can continue to take care of my VERY TIRED husband!

My other thing is that-the change thing again-I want something different about me...so I'm torn...should I dye my hair? I've been blonde before and brown (natural) and I want something different but I don't want too drastic...just enough to notice...so should I go dark brown with red highlights? or would that just look bad-or should I just deal with my color and not change it. What do you think?

Plus I'm thinking-Good it's Spring Break! but then I realize that it's even MORE time alone! I need craft ideas or babies to tend!! I can only clean my house so much! Ideas?!!

I need Thursday to get here fast so that I can play with my family. SAVE ME!I'm even looking forward to work Friday and Saturday! I've never dreaded Spring Break before! I'm sad. Thanks for agreeing!

Okay, I'm done.

Climb to Conquer Cancer

I participated in such an awesome cause on Saturday. Jess, Brenda and I have been working out together and working toward this walk. It is an eleven mile hike...5.5 up hile and then you have the option of taking a bus back down (which more than half did) but those that were crazy walked back down...which included us. We even ran down some of the hills because it hurt so much just to walk down hill. The day after I was massively sore and sick to my stomach and even two days after I am still sore but not quite like yesterday. It was such a huge accomplishment for all three of us. It was a marker for Brenda and I because at this point we have been working out together for a year, and it was Jess's marker for getting rid of ALL her baby weight! We were all so proud of ourselves and each other and would have NEVER made it without each other.

-High five girls!-

So here's some pics from the walk...


At the beginning


If you look close you can see the first hill up the mountain that we had to climb.

We also got balloons at the bottom and carried them to the top and released them in memory of those that survived.

We had such a great time that we've decided to make it a tradition...want to join?

For the LOVE of ROSES

My sweet husband brought me flowers...he is so cute!! I just love how he doesn't feel that he has to pay hundreds of dollars for Valentines Day.

What's more important to me is the time and thought he gives me out of our busy days.

I love you, babe!
