Here!

I'm here!  I'm here!  LOL  But just barely.  I am WORN OUT today!  I didn't think I would be so tired, but I sure am.  I always seem to be after 4 or 5 busy days.  And well, it feels like it's been busy for much longer even though I DID have some downtime.  I think yesterday just worked my nerves.  You see, I love my friend, but we let her little boy come over to celebrate oldest's b-day with us and well, he was WAY hyper.  I don't know what was up with that -- he's normally a fairly well behaved kid.  But yesterday, he was a handful.  And MY oldest was a bit more difficult than normal as a result.  By the time we got home, I was a bit fried.  The hubbs said the same!  But all in all, it was a good day and I am glad it went so well.  He LOVED his cupcakes/cake and his gifts and even though we didn't do anything big, he seemed to have a good time.  We ended up not going to the big pool.  Instead, we stayed at home and the boys played in our pool and got to use the super soaker water guns.  They LOVED that!  There was lots of squealing -- from my husband.  They hunted and sprayed him like he was a prized deer or something!  Poor hubby was DROWNED!  LOL

Eating was pretty on par yesterday.  I did eat some Cheez-its, half a roll and 2 sweet potato fries along with the planned cake.  But that was it.  I wouldn't have eaten the crackers or the roll if it hadn't taken SO darn long at the restaurant.  They originally told us 20 to 30.  We got past 30 and I was like, ok, how much longer and they said 5mins.  Keep in mind, EVERYONE that had come in before and after us had been seated!  And we weren't a large group nor were they all that busy.  After we reached about an hour, we were all getting cranky.  They finally sat us at our table and it took the guy FOREVER to bring us our drinks.  It was either eat some crackers or have a meltdown.  I chose a small handful of crackers.  Then our salads came and then rolls.  So, I had some roll with my salad because the salad was almost all iceburg and well, iceburg and I are NOT friends.  Dinner was good, though.  My steak was PERFECT!  I only had about half of it, though and some broccoli with cheese.  I drank unsweet tea.  Then we came home and had coffee and cake.  YUM!  Overall, I felt like it was a good night.

Now, I am trying to decide what today should be.  Normally, Sundays are a high carb day for me.  I had somewhat been following the hubby's schedule when it comes to cycling, but it's been sorta off.  And then the other day I had said I was thinking of doing low until the hubby's 7 days off.  But now I'm not sure what to do.  I am VERY tired and seriously thinking that I will take today as a higher carb day and then go back low tonight at dinner.  I mostly would like to have one more cupcake!  LOL

UGH.  My child is giving me a migraine so I am going to have to come back to this in a bit.....

Alrighty.  I'm Baaaack!  Sooo... I guess I did a moderate carb day.  Tonight will be leftover steak and broccoli and then maybe some other veggie side.  Or maybe not.  Not all that hungry really.  AND it looks like it might storm.  bleh  But tomorrow it's back to low.  I guess that's actually tonight?  Doing a VERY short high carb just because the time limit is short.  Or at least, I feel like it is.  Although, I guess this is two weeks where I've had a higher day and it's been ok.  But not sure if it's something I would want to do for long term because I'm not sure if it would slow me down.  I'm not sure of a whole lot lately to be honest!  LOL  I'm trying to just stick with this routine I've been in since I got home since I dropped vacay weight AND got under 200 in... WOW.  Less than 2 weeks!  Just realized that!  Woot!  So, maybe I need to quit second quessing myself.  I was keeping at it, but second guessing myself the whole way.  I should stop doing that and focus more on exercise seeing as how I am still not doing that.  AT ALL.  I think I am going to have to add that to the schedule somehow.  At least a couple of days a week.  Aargh!

I don't have much else to talk about right now.  I mean, I do, but man am I tired and not processing well!  Not to mention, I really SHOULD at least fold some laundry.  I really don't want to, but I need to.  The laundry will take over if I don't.  LOL  Ok, going going GONE!

P.S.  Where is everyone?  Come on ladies, get to blogging!  LOL
