Dude...what is the deal??? I am doing the whole vitamin thing, the whole workout thing, the whole trying to be healthy thing...isn't all of that supposed to give you more energy, make you feel better, turn your whole life around? No? Did I not get the right memo? But it has been fun drawing up the workouts. I sit down and write out exactly what we are going to do, reps, seconds... I do it all. And the crazy thing is...I am usually the one laying on the floor crying to make it all stop...and Hilary so sweetly reminds me..."You are the one that made this workout!!!" I am kicking my own butt! You would think that I would have the upper hand, be mentally prepared for the whole thing...my mind and body are not on the same page... may have a short somewhere! Melissa has decided to join the madness. I think the group thing seems to dull the feel of torture when you have people to laugh at...I meant laugh with!

The closer we get to the end of the school year... the longer the school days get and the shorter my personal time gets. I got home today around 6:30 and the next time I looked at my watch...it was 9:17...really??? I need my me time...and the whole clock speeding up after 3 p.m. is not working for me! For example...I need to go get groceries....but I don't have the time or the energy to go get it all done. I don't want to walk around the grocery store when my legs hurt and the sound of voices hurts my ears. I will just have to start eating my lunch menu for breakfast and dinner until there is just no other option but to go to the store. My new diet...don't eat!

This month is going to be a real challenge for many reasons: finishing my first year of teaching JH, keeping up the workout regiment, and my budget. Yes ladies and gentlemen...I have put myself on a budget, I am only allowing myself so much dough for groceries, entertainment, bills, shopping, ect. As of the 6th day into the new plan...I am doing quite well...but lets see how it is going on the 26th day of the plan! I am really trying to teach myself how to save and to only spend money when I need to not because I want to!

I am sitting on my balcony with Lawli, partially out of wanting to be outside in this amazing weather, but also to get better Internet reception...its pitiful I know. But my thoughts need to be sent to the masses! As the crickets chirp and the birds in my rain gutters scratch around...I bid you all goodnight.
