Toot My Own Horn Time...

Keep in mind, I can fluctuate 5 lbs. daily just for the heck of it, but I have lost 15 lbs in 2 weeks by just eating "real" food!!! And I haven't even started to exercise much. Just think what will happen when I add that piece. :o) Yay me! It has not been that hard either. Normally I crave sweets, but because I am eating veggies AND fruit, I think I get my sweet fix. I am a little sick of grapefruit though. Just a side note - I am actually saving money on groceries.

QUACKERS!

Feeding the ducks on a wonderfully shady June evening.

Bud kept pelting the ducks and laughing (sigh).
Bug kept trying to feed the seagulls because
"they deserve to eat too."

:o)

This is about my kids school. It was named Utah's charter school of the year! For us the charter school route was a God-send. I am glad they are doing so well...despite my daughter's reading scores! ;o)

Consider This Weekend A Success!

I did a little shopping and went to dinner with some friends. I spent most of the weekend reading a great book in bed. And I managed to avoid doing dishes, laundry or showering!

Complete Success!!!

Another Teenage Moment...

So...I tell Bug if she cleans up her bedroom and puts her clothes
away I will put up her Polly Pocket houses into a little village
(including the swimming pool) and we will play dolls.

She thinks about it for a second and then replies...
"I can't promise anything, mother, but I will sure plan to think about it!"
and then proceeds to shut her door in my face and turn up her radio. ;o/


By-the-way...mommy slept in today until 9:30am. :o)
When I got up...Bug and Bud had both bathed, dressed,
and fixed themselves breakfast. Are my kids extra self-sufficient
or am I a complete slacker? You decide.

I HATE WAITING!!!!

Patience is not my virtue. I hate waiting!
I'm a candy biter not a candy sucker.
Pull the damn band-aid off already.

Uh!

Bud's New Doo

Or lack thereof.
