Changing the Challenge

So this blogging thing is really hard!
I thought that doing this every day would be a breeze compared to running on the treadmill each day. Wrong!
So I have made the executive decision to change my challenge and go back to running (and the scale wil be happier too). I want to love doing this blog thing and I am afraid that isn't happening because I am annoyed with myself for not getting to it everyday.
I promise to be back here to share good things. See you soon!

Dieting

Isn't that the hardest thing ever?  Right?  Ugh!  Up down up down...can't the scale only move down?   Sounds like I'm frustrated right?  Sorry :)   I am making progress - just not as fast as I would like.  10 to 12 pounds in the last two months.  Not bad.  Must figure out a way to change it up a little.  30 day treadmill challenge was good.  Took a few days off to let the ankle recoup.  Thinking maybe another 30 days will help.  And how about a little addition?  Little more lifting maybe.  Tone those arms before summer :)  And no sweets :/

Today's Favorite Website

Somedays I am not sure what to write about. So I am thinking that maybe my blog can have some theme days.  Wednesday Websites...hmmm.   I was browsing around today and stopped on one of my bookmarked websites.  I found a cool idea to try with all those shopping bags I have. . .  recycle them into envelopes!

Oops!

I got so busy yesterday that I forgot to do my post - oops! My excuse is lesson plans. That's a good one, right? Hope so! :)

It is almost my excuse tonight too. 90 minutes of Zumba and now to complete this weeks plans. The beginning of our Poetry Safari. Couplets...desert habitats...reptiles...choosing animals for our reports...it's going to be a busy but fun week!

Happy Easter!

Enjoyed a wonderful service with Pastor Sarah today, a very yummy lunch with the fam, did a little resume  updating with both Greg and Brianna, ironing - yep interview clothes, wrote some lesson plans, and sat back to enjoy a little Pinterest.  I'd say, a pretty awesome Easter :)

Happy Easter everyone!

Visiting Alfred :)

Britt and Anthony had too much work to do (they only have about five weeks til graduation!) to come home for Easter weekend so we went to them. A nice, but alas short, visit today. We had a great lunch at Paddy's, a stop at a very busy Wegman's, and a little tour of the senior show spaces. Britt has great pieces almost ready for May 5th. Can't wait!

Here are some pieces for the show & a pic of her working at the gallery tonight :)

        

Here is her new website - yay!         www.brittanysayers.com
