boss in a green wig?

Miss Madelyn came over to play yesterday and we had a blast.  She helped me clean and of course in putting some shoes in the closet found my green St. Patrick's Day Wig.  We had a lot of fun with it, who knew????



We played most of the day, watched (well sort of) a movie - Pochahontas, I was just glad for something other than Special Agent Oso (he's a unique stuffed bear, you know.) and had lemonade and berries for snack.



She is really starting to develop a fun personality and even though she is bossy (wonder where she gets that) we always have a great time!



I always look forward to Wednesdays!

This morning I have Insanity Pure Cardio.  That is the hardest workout, but I still love pushing myself as hard as I can.  Yesterday's workout seemed harder than usual (Plyo Cardio Circuit) and I'm hoping that I have more energy this morning!  Talk about a sweatfest.  EVERYTIME!

Today will be spent in my office.  It needs some attention, organizing and cleaning.  So, I'm going to take the time to get it done!

Discussion:  Any good organizing/cleaning tips?

Yay! Weekend!

It's been a busy week and I'm glad the weekend is here.  I've been working, cleaning up from the party and then watching my sweet baby. 

I had the best of intentions to get my office organized and things put away.  That hasn't happened YET!  I am going to work on it today and tomorrow when I have the time.  I have Mads today for a while so Chase and Meredith can have their garage sale. 

My filing is behind and the office looks like a tornado hit it.  So, my goal is to get it all straightened up.  Brian is going to hang my cabinets and he is putting the door to the master bedroom back on.  We took it off when he had his accident so the wheelchair could fit through. So, it will be nice for that to be back on!  Whoo-hoo for privacy!!!

We had a blast at our celebration last weekend. I didn't post many photos, I didn't take very many, my camera died!!  There was dancing, drinking and good food.  Great conversations and good friends!  We are so thankful to our friends for all the help and support they gave us during that time.







Tonight we have a birthday party, so more fun with friends will be had!  Can't wait!

Friday Challenge - pick your poison!

It's Finally Friday!!!  YAY!!  This week has gone by fast for us.  We've been so stinkin' busy, but I like it that way. 

In order to shake things up in your life, you have to change things up!  So for today's challenge, we are going to really change, are you ready?



If you are trying to lose weight, then we are going to focus on our workouts.

If you are trying to get healthier, then we are going to focus on our meals.

If you are trying to be organized, then we are going to focus on cleaning.

So, choose your poison and let's get started.

Losing weight:  we are going to workout as much as we possibly can this weekend.  I want at least 2 workouts on Sat and Sun - yes, both days!  I prefer that you space them out and if you want to go hardcore - then add in even more workouts. 

Over on the Beachbody message boards, we used to have weekend blowouts and do a workout every hour!  It was a lot of fun, we would log our workouts in WOWY and then post about it on the message boards. Great fun, great way to have a lot of sore muscles :) and  a great way to meet new people  So, go for it and really give it all you've got.



Getting Healthy  - let's shake up our diets!  We are going to eat as healthy as possible.  This means that you will not be eating any processed foods, only whole grains, fruits, vegetable and lean proteins.  You will also be drinking TONS of water. 



Getting organized - get your list and get started.  Do the thing you think is the worst thing on your list FIRST!  Then it won't seem so bad after that.  I'm going to tackle my office.  It is out of control, I've had it on my to-do list for a while now, so it is time to get serious about it.  I need to get caught up on my filing (I HATE to do it!) and then get it organized.

So, this is a big challenge for everyone.  There is something there for all of us to focus on!

Discussion:  What is your challenge going to be?  Also, would you be interested in a message board here?  I'm always looking to improve the blog and looking for ideas.  Any questions you'd like me to answer, please let me know!!
