Thought I'd try out the video feature. I haven't posted any videos and came across this one that still makes me laugh. Check out my big pregnant belly and have fun laughing at the awkward fat chick in the picture.

And Jodi, I may just have to post me singing my high school fight song! I remember all the cheerleading moves that go along with it. If only I still had my cheerleading uniform... Shudder...

Tagged

I was tagged by Jodi. (I'm going to have to have someone show me how to do those link things) Thanks Jodi! I feel special!!!!

This is an interesting one...

Here's how it works:

1. Pick up the nearest book (one of at least 123 pages)

2. Open the page to 123

3. Find the 5th sentence.

4. Post the next 3 sentences

5. Tag 5 people.

The closest book to me is Patricia Cornwell's Point of Origin.

"Wellbutrin. Prozac weirded her out. One minute a zombie and bar-hopping the next."

Wow. Kinda makes you wonder what the heck that book is about. Anyway, I'm tagging Chrissy, Danielle, Tammie, Michael and Charlotte.

Sickness and Soda

Travis is sick.... again. He keeps getting the same cold over and over and over, each time whining more and more and more. The other day I had Caiden screaming, Corgan whining and Travis coughing and complaining and I threw up my hands and said, "I'm surrounded by babies!!!!" Not nice, I know, but I was under duress.

Travis was wondering why the heck he keeps getting sick and I said he'd be healthier if he worked out. He pointed out that I'd be healthier if I quit drinking Diet Coke. Point taken.

Blessings....

I just love this time of year. I was driving in my car, listening to some cheesy Christmas songs on the radio, feeling the bite of cold in the air and looking at all the beautiful Christmas lights when I felt a bit teary. I am so blessed. I have a loving husband, two amazing children, awesome friends, a warm home and a loving family. All too often I compare myself to others and find myself lacking. My home isn't decorated as nicely, or my car is a piece of crap, or I don't have stylish clothes. But you know what? Who the heck cares? In the grand scheme of things, that stuff really doesn't matter. So, when I'm feeling sorry for myself, I'm going to pull up these pictures....




... and count my blessings.

Here's a Thought...

Why do people try to get the closest parking spot when going to the gym? Isn't it like, the whole freaking point? To get exercise? To break a sweat? I taught a class tonight and saw this car circling and circling the parking lot, trying to find the closest possible spot to the front door. I mean, hellllo? What lazy butts.
