Why is it that ....
as soon as you mop the kitchen floor, someone spills something on it???
I can sit down and read an entire 300+ Mary Higgins Clark book in one afternoon, but when I read the Book of Mormon I can only read about 3 - 5 pages before my eyes are tired, I'm fighting drowsiness, I can't focus, and I find I'm reading with zero comprehension???
when I wake up in the morning, my entire body feels so stiff??? It is physically difficult to walk up the stairs. (After I'm up and moving for a few minutes it's not so bad, I just wish I could skip the morning stiffness)
it is so easy to tell other people what they should do, but so hard to actually do it yourself???
After reading Candace and Sandra's posts about losing weight, I immediately responded with the 'advice' that they should use the book "the formula, the 40-30-30 nutrition plan to fat burning." When I followed the 40-30-30 program, I lost weight at a fantastic rate, and more importantly, I felt really healthy. I was eating from all the food groups, didn't feel hungry, had energy, and wasn't so moody. SO the question is, why am I not following it right now, when I want to feel healthier, lose weight, and fit into my pants again??? I asked myself that after sending the second "free advice" to Sandra, and I decided I need to walk the walk, so I'm going to plan my menu and go shopping this weekend, and starting Sunday I'm back on the wagon!
as soon as you post about cute things your kids have done, they do something that you think is even more post worthy, but you hesitate to do a repeat "kids funny stories" post???
*** I decided one morning to put make-up on. Katrina was watching me intently, and when I was done, I asked her, "how do I look?" (keep in mind here, that I had only done my face, my hair was still the straight out of bed look) She looked at me and said, "You look weird. (pause) Your face looks 'bader', (then as an after thought to soften the blow of her last comment) but your hair looks nice."
** Bryan's pajama's with feet were getting a bit to small, so I cut the feet off. When I helped him put them last night, we talked about how and why I cut them off. Tim came into the kitchen during the conversation and said to Bryan, "Oh did mom cut the feet off?" Bryan looked at him like he was crazy, then said, pointing to HIS feet, "no, my feets right dere"
Gotta go get dressed and get work. I have floors to mop, scriptures to read, and menus to plan!

I just started a Mary Higgins Clark book two nights ago. As I was reading it, I thought to myself, "I wonder if Jeri still reads these?"
How weird that you would spill it out right here, when we probably haven't discussed her since the nanny days!
What a coincidence!
yup - I still love them. The one I just read was "I Heard That Song Before."
I really love post like this. All of the comments are SO true.
I really love funny kids stories, so keep em coming!
I'm great at giving advice too...sometimes I wonder, "would I really even do that, in that situation?" I don't know.
I have a problem with the floor too, I'm scared to mop at this point. Cute stories!
