Feeling LIsty

*Friday today, YAHOO! This week went by quickly. Cameron is supposed to have his first T-ball practice of the season, but there's supposed to be heavy showers, so I'm thinking it'll be cancelled.

*Day 5 of my diet, day 3 of exercising. I seriously can hardly move today. My abs, my arms, my butt. You name it, it hurts right now. At least I know something's happening. LoL. This time around I'm trying to count calories. I hear that really helps. So far it has. I've been doing decent. It's scary to think about how many you actually consume when eating out though. YIKES!

*When I'm exercising, I tell the kids not to ask me questions, here I am gasping for air and they want to carry on a long conversation. I just put on a kid's exercise on ON DEMAND for Payton. (Her and Cameron love to do it.) I can hear her saying "Don't talk to me right now, kids. Clean the playroom." LoL. That sounds familiar.

*We've been having issues with Payton wetting the bed at night. Last night was her first night in a while to wake up with a dry bed. Thank you, Jesus! Stripping the beds every morning was seriously getting old. Hopefully now that she's had one dry night, many more will follow.

*I go to the eye doc for my one month check-up on Monday. I'm anxious to go and make sure everything is good. And ask some questions. I drove at night for the first time on Monday and it was actually really good. In the first few weeks, I couldn't even open my eyes in the car at night. The other car's headlights played havoc with my eyes. Seems like that's gone now. I'd also like to start tanning. Thinking he's not going to let me, but I'm going to ask anyway!

*Wanting to start scrapping, but needing to start painting. Excited about putting together this month's Girlah kit.

*Payton's very first dance recital is coming up next month. I'm giddy about the thought of watching her up there (hopefully) dancing. Her recital is the same day that my little sister graduates from college, so I'm a little bummed about that, but hoping to make it work so that we make both.

*Going with Cameron and his class on a field trip next week. Should be interesting. I went with the class last month. It was actually a lot of fun. And really crazy. If I wouldn't be at home with Payton, I would be teaching, so it's always interesting to get into the classroom or go somewhere with them. Sometimes I leave so thankful to be able to stay home. LoL. Sometimes, though, I think it would be great. Maybe one day I'll put that ole college degree to good use. We'll see.

*Payton's been going around saying things like "there's a bug in your hair"... April Fool's! Apparently she thinks it lasts the entire month of April.

*Have a fabulous weekend.
