Livin La Vida Loca...sort of


LOV3

What a day! I should have seen the Full Moon coming. Things just wouldn't go right today! Well, I can't say it was that bad, but the boys were really out of control. I'm so glad it's the weekend and my hubby is home. I'm looking forward to spending some quality time with him. It was so nice of him to take the family out for pizza. Poor guy was exhausted, but his efforts are sweet...and I got the hug I was waiting for all day!




"Go through the house and introduce your self slowly"

What is it going to take to get this house in order? It's crazy how I can wake up at 7:am and still have a trashed house at 4:30pm. Ridiculous. This has become a habitual routine for this family, and i'm not pleased. I had hoped to get the house looking so incredible that when the guys got home they would be surprised. It seems even that has worn out it's welcome. I know it needs a few touches of things here and there. It's needs a little TLC. In the movie; "Under the Tuscan Sun" Diane Lane's character narrates a part where she talks about introducing yourself to the home. Slowy getting to know it and letting it get to know you. It's true. When we moved in, it was so fast. Now, we are possibly moving again. I'll need to keep this statement in mind for the next one. It's not that this house has anything "wrong" with it, it's that it's in an area of the island that is very, very hot and humid. Not to mention, there is a lot of construction going on what with the new gymnasium and few new homes that the place; not just the house is covered and littered with red and black dust. I so miss carpeting, I need to request that for the new place. I hope that place is not a bad deceision.


With Halloween right around the corner, i've been thinking about costumes and decor. My 2 year old has the costume idea covered. I think i mentioned before that buying elaborate and costly costumes were out. We are gonna try face-painting. "Confetti on the Go" does a great job using a easily removable powder based makeup. The kids get in the shower and the makeup just comes right off. We are looking at a family of superheroes. Look out everyone, here comes WonderMom!


Yummy!
 I haven't stuck to my plan for eating. I ate white rice, I had oily soup, I ate ice cream, chocolate, hot dogs, soda, and pizza with oil, lots of cheese and salt. Bad Girl! I feel like i've gained weight. I'm not happy with myself for that. I need to excersise more will-power. This is not going to be as easy as I thought. This weekend's grocery trip is going to be a low snack, high produce trip. It's good for the whole family. The heat I talked about, is going to be my extra weapon to getting a sweat induced workout. Grab that belly bandit, turn up that volume and let's get loud!






Here's to a romantic weekend....I hope.
