My church meeting went really late last night. 28 out of 30 days a month, we are asleep by 9pm. So when I’m up late, I don’t sleep as well. I didn’t fall asleep till 11:30. I wanted to get going by 5am, because I had 9 miles to run. Eliece and I are following, …

Eating fast
I’m eating my dinner so fast, I can’t stop hiccuping. I have another meeting to get to in 5 minutes, so this will be quick. Lunch didn’t happen till about 2:00. I had another pita sandwich, and some leftover fruit from this mornings activity. Then we had T-Ball. Didn’t get home till 6:00 and I …
Fruit fruit, and more fruit
Had to get out early again today. I was up at 5am. Out the door by 5:30 for a quiet walk. No headphones, no chemistry. I love quiet walks. No kids, just my prayers and thoughts. After I got back and ready, I was out the door again at 7am. I hate eating in the …
Winding Down
As if I didn’t eat enough starchy food today, we sat down to watch So You think You Can Dance and popped some popcorn! I don’t know why my kids can’t take a handful of popcorn and shovel it into their mouth without getting half of it on the floor. I have to vacuum every …
Still raining
Summer is going to be here and gone, and we’ll have never had a warm day. I’m getting over this inside stuff. Between lunch and dinner, I had a few graham crackers. Because they were there, and because my sister in law was over and her kids were snacking on some. I really like graham …
Working
I was scheduled to work today. (Generally I will work if Wade has the day off). So I got up and was at the gym by 5:30. I did 30 minutes on the Eliptical machine. I had my chemistry book in front of the display, and did not realize for at least 10 minutes of …
More Carrots
I was right, about 3:30, I certainly was hungry again. I decided a big glass of orange juice with some powdered greens for a little boost. I really like it! It makes me feel energized. Usually I’ll put the greens in a smoothie, but it was the middle of the day, I have a crappy …
10 year olds can be brutal
Just got back from teaching 10 year old cub scouts about meal planning and the food guide pyramid. They were tough! I could barely get through what I planned to say, cause they had a TON of irrelevant comments. Oh well, I kind of expected that. Since I didn’t actually get a breakfast today, I …
The sweetest 6 year old
I headed out at 5:30 to do a run around the neighborhood. Some days, the 30 minutes extra I need getting to and from the gym, just isn’t there. So I put my chemistry podcast in my ear and took off. I got 50 minutes in and 4.5 miles. I always eat a banana before …
Frustration
Swimming was great fun. But I brought Chemistry and was desperately trying to figure out all these conversion equations and it took forever. I am still a bit lost. But I’m moving on. When we got home, I started with a spoonful of almond butter, with semi-sweet chocolate chips on top. When I’m in the …
