Mission Accomplished

Well, I survived the gym! I got some cardio and some weights in, and I am surprisingly enough not very sore today at all! I have been walking and jogging on and off with the kiddos on the awesome trails by our house, so I guess that helped a bit. I plan to work extra hard tonight, since I won’t be going to the gym on Friday. They boys are going to the BMX track to try out Zach’s new wheels, and Taylor’s best friend Madison is sleeping over, so I’ll be entertaining the girls while the boys are doing their thing. I haven’t really decided what to do with them yet. It’s too could to go outside right now, it’s in the low 30’s this week, and for my Northern friends, that’s considered “Arctic Cold” in Texas! (Go ahead, laugh it up!) I was thinking we could all go get manicures or maybe see a movie or something. I’m trying to avoid things that would involve food, like GattiTown or Chuck-e-chesses, so that I am not tempted to eat anything off plan. I still have some Christmas money left from Mom, so we might do a little shopping. Everyone has such good sales right now! I bet I could pick up some great stuff for the house. I am so obsessed with buying house wares right now! The obsession had slowed a bit, until Steven bought me some awesome new dishes from Crate & Barrel for Christmas, and ever since, I’ve been addicted all over again. Is this normal? It’s like I can’t stop until the house is perfect, room by room. The big thing right now is the dining room/kitchen. Ironic, considering the circumstances with my diet!
