When is School Starting???

Holy Cow!
Sorry, I haven't posted in awhile, I've been very busy. If you don't believe me, ask my niece Jessica who's missing our daily chit chats; "wow, what happened to you...you are impossible to get a hold of!" Let's just say, I sorta am looking forward to school starting for some peace around here. LOL Actually, my boys will be in school two days, and I'll be wishing them home...for sure.

So just to show an example here is a typical day in my house:

Wake-up
Coffee
Breakfast for the boys
Tidy myself-up
Grocery run

Breakfast for Tony and I
Iron Tony's clothes

Clean: *while 9 boys, yep 9 boys play in my basement and around the house
-kitchen
-bedrooms
-vaccuum
-laundry
-wash floors

lunch

-write
-attempt to look at my school work (I'm taking a college course)

dinner for the boys
dinner for Tony and I

Clean-up from dinner
-visit with neighbours
Power walk with the 'walking club' (about 5-6 km)

Phew!! I'm exhausted just typing that!
I'm not complaining, as I must admit it's a productive busy. I'm mostly enjoying the company of my walking club and the neighbours.

So I've been 'busy'. I've also maintained on track eating and work-out wise (5-6k walks!). So I'm surely celebrating that 2 lb loss. Especially since it's brought me at exactly the same place I was weight wise this time last year. Now it's time to really push and beat last year's weight! :>

Tony too is pushing into a new weight number...he has 2 lbs to go and he'll be there!
Last night, we treated ourselves to wings, and pepsi!!! It had been two months since I've even sipped on a soda. The first gulp just about choked me...that is some powerful sugar in there. Afterwards, we sat in the hottub with the kids and enjoyed looking at the stars. Well, as Carmelo would say:

Me: boys, look at the sky and all the beautiful stars.
Carmelo: Ah em....The star is here...I'm over here!

Well, I think that's all I'll get in right now. The doorbell has rung again...the boys want back in!
