But boy oh boy she sucked the thing to death. Second night was better than the first, and tonight, not even a mention!! Ahhhhh!!!! Sooooo glad to be done with that! Next project: Potty Training. If only that could go just as smoothly. Here's hoping.
This is a big month around here. Benton and I will celebrate our 5 year anniversary, and 2 days before that, Benton will officially be done with school!!!! Let me say that again. Benton will officially be done with school!!!! Done. Done, done done! I'm not excited at all. Neither is he.
So, too celebrate, we thought we'd take a little trip. We've booked a cruise to the Caribbean! So, so excited!! Can't wait, really. There's just one thing that is looming over my head. I have to wear one of these:
In roughly 2 months. I'd sure like to tone up a bit. Lose a couple pounds. Not a lot, just like 4 or 5. Trouble is, I was in a pretty darn good exercise routine up till around July. Then I went out of town for 2+ weeks and pretty much didn't do anything to keep up the habit. Then I came back home to the hottest August on record, and getting up at 5:30 am to run in 85 degrees was less than appealing. In short, my good habit was gone. It's finally cooling off and I'm starting to get back out there running again, but it's like pulling teeth getting my fatty rear-end out the door.
Then there's my eating. Is there a harder time to diet than fall? This is when all the best food comes out and I Looooove to make it all and love eating it equally as much. I can usually wrap my mind around eating well, steering clear of sugar, white flour and other such evils, it's not coming so easily this time. With my luck, I'll probably put on a few pounds before we disembark.
How do you motivate yourself? Especially during the season of the best food ever? Help, please.
