My Husband Left Me

Today is a random day.
Which makes it perfect for me to link up with Shanna for Random Wednesday.
  Wondering about my title? Well, if you are new to this rodeo that I call life then you should know that my husband works nights. Which I hate. But he has been on vacation from work for over a week so at night, he has been home with me. It's been amazing. I love having him not run out the door at 9 at night right when I'm free of children and ready to spend time with him. But last night, he had to go back to work, and it wasn't appreciated. He left me for work. But don't worry, I'm formulating a plan to get him to quit soon.   In other news, Alex was being really really quiet last night while in the bathtub. And my kids aren't quiet in the bath....they HATE baths. It's like a battle every night to get them to bathe. It's almost like I gave birth to two little boys. I went to check on her, and she was passed out. Cold. It was hilarious. If only I could show you the entire picture, you would die. She was layed down with her ankles crossed and her mouth open. But since this is the internet, I cropped the pic....and now it looks kind of creepy and like she is underwater. Sorry about that, she was safe and didn't drown.

                                                              creeepy, no?

She also jammed her finger playing basketball and it's really swollen.
Don't worry, we wrapped it with two pieces of plastic (to keep it straight, obvs) and an ace bandage. Doctor FH at his finest.

And I forgot to take a picture....fail.
My kid being in pain is no excuse to not take a picture.

Kate also fell off the ripstick last night and swore she broke her pinky toe. She wanted to go back out and play though so there were no ace bandages involved.
Told ya it was like I had two boys.

And the final topic of this random post will be my Weigh In Wednesday.....which isn't great.
I stayed the same. Whomp, whomp.

The crappy thing is that I have lost and gained back the same lb for like 2 weeks now. I am determined to get that lb off for good!

And no, my results aren't very motivating...but I've thought of some things that are motivating for you and me since I'm talking to myself.

1. The sun was out big time yesterday. Which made me think of tank tops....and my fat arms deserve to see some sun this year. I want them to be tank top ready.

2. You know that feeling you get when you want to get in shape for an event, then the event gets here and you are all like "If only I had stuck to that plan, I would be feeling awesome right now?" Well, I don't want to feel that way. I have a wedding shower coming up, Valentine's day, an anniversary, a concert, and many more events. I want to look good for those events...good enough to post an outfit pic on IG. Cause that really prooves that I feel good. lol

3. I don't know about you, but in the Spring, I don't have my security blanket. My security blanket is, like every other fat girl in America, layers. A tank top under a shirt that will help suck you in. A cardigan over that shirt to cover the busted can of biscuits. A big fat hooded sweatshirt to cover the fact that my jeans are super tight.
In the summertime, none of that is happening.
Not to mention, shorts. Enough said.

Okay, I'm motivated now!!! I am looking forward to a full week of being good and working towards my goals. I am STILL sore from my ab class on Monday so I will for sure be going back next week.

Goals for this week: {I never do this, but it will be nice to go back and see how I did each week}
-Monday strength and abs class
-work on pushups/tank top arms. my goal with this is to do as many as I can for a minute, then rest, then repeat. {thanks for the plan, FH!}
-avoid just doing cardio, I have recently discovered that I really like going into the all girls' workout room at the gym. No one judges you and it's small so hardly anyone is in there. I am going to get together some pinterest workouts and go in there with a plan in mind
-water, water, water
-there's a bootcamp at my gym that I'm dying to try, hopefully I will get to that this week
-run a 10K on Saturday-Holla!!

Question: Why is it Weigh In Wednesday? I would do so much better if we did this on a Friday. Former Fatty Friday anyone?? haha

Happy Wednesday Y'all! Can't wait to read about how everyone else did better than me this week! ;)
