Time to go play in traffic for the next 45 minutes. Then it'll be time to get home, change clothes, and relax.

HAAAAHAHAHAHAAA! RELAX! Right. :glare:

The good news is, Mrs E got one of the softball parents to agree to bring Melanie home after practice, so I'll at least be able to get a full workout in this evening.

Have a good evening e'ryone!

Today started out on the wrong foot. Made coffee, added milk, it clumped up and sunk to the bottom of the cup. :( Same milk I used yesterday that was fine, go figure?

Tiff, glad you're back too! :thumbs:

FV, a new phone is on my list. I really should do it, since I get a new one every 2 years. It's been over 3... :facepalm:

Had a very uneventful day spending the day at home with hubby. We didn't do any thing but that fine, I cooked a large pork roast for supper. It was a big hit. I had a few small pieces but didn't go overboard since because of my diet. Last night was weigh in and I've lost 83 pounds so far. I'm almost there! Tomorrow is work and I think that's about it besides my ever growing to do list.

Good morning all.

Well... It's obvious to me that it might have been a mistake skipping a week of gym time. I'm hurtin'. And I know it's only going to be worse tomorrow. Luckily, I dont go to the gym today! Oh... wait... Yes I do. :facepalm: The good news is, is that Mrs E is officially back on working mornings, so I'll be able to drag her with me (kicking and screaming) so I dont have to hurt alone. :D

Kat has made the school volleyball team. :sigh: Now we'll have to figure out how to fit THAT into our already smooth calm and relaxing schedule. Dont get me wrong... I'm proud of that kid for making it. But I mean, come on... She now has volleyball practice everyday this week, and I still have to squeeze in a softball practice tomorrow. It wouldnt be so bad if I actually LIKED to watch volleyball. But the only reason I ever went to games in high school was to watch the girls (Mrs E included before she was Mrs E) jump around in those tight shorty shorts. I also get to take Kat to a new team softball tryout this Sunday. It's the 14U version of the 12U team she was on last year, the Charlotte Magic. She's already met the 14U coach, and should know at least a few of the other girls. And she'll be able to stay with them through the Spring of 2016. At that point, she plans on going back to her current team for the summer. AND she plans on playing softball for the school. :sigh:

Other than that, not too much else going on. Still floating around the same weight for the last two weeks... I need to figure out how to break this plateau I've hit. Since I'm getting so close to my goal weight, it's getting more and more difficult to lose anything.

It was a toss up if I should like that or not James.

Good morning! Mr. V is out and about delivering ducks. My babies are gone. *sniffle* We sure have a quiet coop now. 6 birds left, just my sweet polish hens remain. Chores just got super simple again, so it's not all bad.

I don't see how you keep up with your schedule, James.

I got to work and forgot we are closed today for something I don't remember what. :facepalm: So I took advantage of the time and made it to Target, Office Depot, and Dollar Tree. The minute I walked in the door I spilled my Starbucks Caramel Macchiato. :( Luckily I had a Monster Java in the fridge. :)

Alex finished high school :banana: Now he is supposed to be working on coming up with a plan of how he plans to get the certificates he needs to go further. And chores. He has more chores since he is done with school now. We have an appointment with the state vocational rehab service next week. Alex is not happy but we told him that he has to show some effort and make us believe he doesn't need it or we are moving forward for his own good. Regardless, we are all going to the meeting. Luckily hubby will be home to help me get Alex in the car. :laugh: Seriously, I will definitely need assistance.

The rest of the day will be either doing stuff around here or working on updating my new calendar to do system. It will be much more efficient than what I'm doing now.

I would like to take a minute and deeply apologize for my negative attitude and God knows what at the end of last week. I'm really sorry.

Well, time to head out. I hope everyone has a good evening. I'm hoping to get on the road before this nasty storm hits, but it looks like I'm going to have to drive through it at the very least. Maybe I can at least get to my car before the deluge starts.

Mrs E is going back into work this evening. The bi**h she works with apparently caught a knife through her hand this morning and cant work. I dont really feel bad for her. She really is a horrible person. Karma and all that jazz. But, it does put a kink in my plans for the gym this evening. Unless Mrs E goes in to work later than what she initially predicted, then she can get Kat from volleyball practice while I head to the gym. Then Kat can watch the other two until I get back. Dinner will be leftovers, so no big deal for dinner. The fun part will be making sure they all shower by the time I get home.

Yep. Have a good evening!!!

No need for apologies Tiff.

Good morning all.

Kat isnt happy with me this morning. I reminded her that she had softball practice after volleyball practice. I also reminded her that she's going to miss yet another hitting lesson because of volleyball. She said "It's not my fault!" Really??? Then who's fault is it?! Oddly enough, she had no answer for that. I think I'll have to swap her lesson with Melanie's lesson Sunday. Melanie has done three or four, while Kat has only had one. She's also not happy with having a tryout with a new team Sunday only to turn around and go to practice for the current team. "Do you know how tired I'm going to be?!" Geez kid. Now, your just being lazy. You're the one who wants to keep playing softball after your current Summer season is done. If you want to do that, this is what has to be done. Besides. It's not like a tournament weekend. It'll be like playing two games back to back which she does every tournament. No biggie.

Yep. That's about all I've got. Shocking, I know. No novel this morning.
