Do you ever have one of those weeks where your emotions are completely all over the place and you just don't know why??? This week has been that way for me - and it's only Wednesday! HA!
Monday was an emotional roller coaster for me. I'm not sure why....I've even looked at my diet trying to decide if there is something I am eating that is throwing my hormones out of whack but no luck on that so far. Because I had such an emotional crying fit most of the day, my bestie took me out for Mexican (margaritas included of course!) and it was fabulous and much needed! We had all of the kids with us but put a basket of chips in front of them and silence falls over the table! LOL
Anywho, after a fabulous dinner out, we came home and hunkered down in my bed to watch our newest guilty pleasure: The Bachelorette! Yes, I know....it's all so ridiculous but we have become completely emotionally attached to this show - which is going to make us watch The Bachelor next! My horrible Monday ended so much better than it started - thanks, Bestie!!! You're the bestest!
Because of crying most of Monday, I didn't get any exercise in at all! Yesterday I got a lot of studying and tests done in the morning. I am a bit behind on my studying right now, which I will work on diligently over the weekend, so it was nice to sit down and have the time to really dig into my studies. Once I was done studying, I had a delicious Green Monster! I made this one with flax seeds, banana, strawberries, spinach and milk. While it was good, I didn't feel as satisfied as my first one with peanut butter instead of strawberries. I straightened up the house some in anticipation of a friend of ours coming over for dinner.
Once Steph got over, we indulged in some veggies and hummus with our wine while my hubby got the grill ready. We had a FABULOUS dinner: grilled steak, my "world famous" red-skinned mashed potatoes and a salad. Both the hubby and I had very little potatoes as we're trying to keep our carb intake on the lower side. We had great conversation, great food, great drink and lovely weather! I'm so glad it's going to be a bit cooler this week!
Today we had our Fun-Filled Family Day: Six Flags!! Me, the hubby and T-Man do this every summer when he comes but I guess we can do this even easier in the future with him living here now! What a day we had!!! I love roller coasters - not having roller coaster emotions! LOL
We are absolutely exhausted from the day! We had such a great time! I would love to go to FrightFest for Halloween. Has anyone ever been to this? How is it?
I have a couple of appointments in the morning and then I'm going to go to the park (especially since it's cooler these days) to get a really good walk/jog in - I'm going for a full 5.5 miles!! Later in the afternoon, I'm taking all the kids to the library as we do each Thursday. I'm kind of excited as T-Man has a reading list for his upcoming school year!!
Hope you're having a great week!!
Be true to you!
Hugs,
Heather
