I'm Alive, I Think

I am alive, but really tired. The following is my schedule (three days a week) since the beginning of this month.

5:00 AM - Wake up
5:15 AM - Get out of bed and run for 30 minutes, cool down and do crunches
6:00 AM - Shower and get ready for work
7:00 AM - Go to work
12:00 PM - One hour lunch, usually a sandwich or leftovers. Make sure meat for dinner is taken out of the freezer, water plants, etc.
1:00 PM - Go back to work
6:00 PM - Leave work, go home and make dinner
7:00 PM - Eat dinner, relax a little. Clean kitchen, watch a little tv, surf internet, walk dogs, play Wii, water plants in garden, do laundry, etc.
9:00 PM - Do a 20 minute Pilates workout
9:30 PM - Wash face, read scriptures, get ready for bed
10:00 PM - Fall asleep before my husband gets out of the shower

I have been tired and energized at the same time, a weird combination, but it's been okay. Except that when I weighed myself today hoping for the loss of at least a few pounds, turns out I've GAINED 1.5 pounds. DEpressing!

Otherwise life is good. Jonathan finished school and did pretty well, I'm so proud of him. He's working at Geneva Rock again and we'll get his first full-time paycheck this Friday. It will be so nice to have two steady incomes again. Hopefully we can get a lot of things paid off this summer and be mostly debt free by winter so we can finally redo our kitchen. We'll see how it goes, wish us luck!

Long Time No Post

I know it's been a while since I've posted anything. One of the reasons (and not a very good one) is that I took a lot of videos on the weekend when my brother and his family came to visit. The videos were so cute, Toby and Marcus dancing in the living room at my mom's house. The thing is, I'm an idiot. I didn't realize that when making a video clip on my camera you can't turn the camera or the video turns as well. So I now have about 6 video clips that are sideways. I've been trying to figure out ways to fix this, and I have been able to rotate the clips and play them correctly on my computer, but when I upload them to youtube.com they are still sideways. Ahhh!

Anyway, there's my lame excuse for not posting. I'll try to repent :)

Braden's Birthday

It's almost been a month since Braden's birthday, but here are some pictures and a video from his birthday celebration. This was a fun weekend because Randy and Kim came down from Logan and we all got together all weekend. It was so nice to see them. Allison made these adorable monkey cupcakes. Yum! A good time was had by all.
