My first post for 2008

Hey ya'll. I know it's been awhile...wonder if ya'll are around to even read anymore? If you have come by and checked this blog I thank you for being so faithful. Leave me a lil comment so I know you're there.

Things here are crazy at the moment. We are finishing out our basement. It is going to be hella cool when it's finished. It has been dubbed "The Man Cave" by several folks.

There will be a sitting area complete with large screen t.v., kick ass surround audio, and nice leather seating. There will be a new fireplace. (pics of fireplace in progress to be added at bottom of this post) There will be a pool table area. (This all in a Razorback theme...Wooooo Pig Soooie!) There will be a bar for entertaining.

We also have a full bath, an exercise room and ...........

I will have my very own craft room to do all my artsy fartsy crafting stuffage. YAY!!!

I can hardly wait!!

The fam is doing well. The girls are great..they are going through a very defiant period right now and driving me and the hubby crazy at times. We took them for their first hair cuts yesterday...that was an experience. No one was hurt but many tears were shed.

Hmmm...Christmas was great. I will eventually post some piccys from that time too. As you can tell I'm not doing a very good job of keeping up with things right now. It's been very hard to post. Everytime I seem to get a moment to sit down, something happens or comes up and I have to quit. It will slow down again eventually.

Got to go and see what the oldest child is screaming about now....

New Year Resolutions

Well it's a new year and I've actually made a resolution this time. I usually think new years resolutions are stupid. I can't really think of anyone who has ever kept theirs. BUT.... Since I had my two daughters I gained quite a bit of weight. Of course all women gain weight when they have children, it's pretty much unavoidable..but I want to lose mine, not carry it around forever. So....I am on a diet and exercising 6 days a week.


I am so funny sometimes... I am using "The Biggest Loser" workout video for my exercise. I just loved that show. It was "inspiring" for me I guess. I am also eating on the zone diet. So far so good. Haven't seen any weight loss yet, but it's coming I can feel it. I know my body is adjusting to things cause I had a couple of days where I just felt WEIRD. Woke up in the middle of the night all sweaty and kind of panicky... but overall I'm feeling good.

My target is 110lbs..we'll see how I do.
