Almost Valentine's Day...time is flying by

Finally the routine is coming together. I love working full-time, however, I don't love having to come home after have worked all day just to clean the house. Luckily, my lovely husband has been helping me tremendously. Actually on Saturday I went out to my friends place for a card making party and when I came home the laundry was done...two loads, washed, dried, folded and put away. How lucky am I to have him.

On Tuesday we got our new gym equipment. I am not sure if we thought the whole "gym equipment in our basement" idea enough as by the time we went to move the treadmill downstairs...all 260 lbs of it...Nightmare...our stairs curve and....there was almost tears. We did it though...we got it down. I do have a lot of bruises and am extremely sore from helping. Poor Trevor...his back is in pain and he is doing the "Frozen Ass 50" (ultra marathon) on Monday.

Workouts have been going good. Since I now have a desk job I really notice my energy levels dropping if I don't get my workout in. I just feel like a blob. I have been having a bit of trouble getting up in the morning. I manage usually two days of the week. I think we have solved the problem though. Last night I set up our bedroom light to a timer that automatically goes off at 4am. When this morning came it went off and it was so bright....we were up quick. Worked!! Alarm clocks are just meant to be re-adjusted and snooze buttons are way too convenient.

Today at school we have jump rope for heart, so it is a fun day for the kids. I am looking forward to today. It is nice to see all the kids involved in activity.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day...we are off to Chocolate (to the tune of love). Our church is putting it together. It was $12 and we get a chocolate dessert as well as there will be 2 chocolate fountains. They will have jazz music. It should be nice. The kids have a pizza party while at the church at the same time...nice!!
