Boy Oh Boy…

Today started out pretty good…I got the kids off to school….then took my puppy for a 45 minute walk. When I got back I thought…hmmm…I can burn more calories by mowing the grass (believe me, it needs a cut!). So, I put my yard work shoes on and was about to head out for more of a workout when….ring, ring, ring! The phone *sigh*. It’s my children’s school. They proceed to tell me I need to pick my 4 year old daughter up because she has lice! CRAP! So off I go…I pick her up, go to the drug store, come back and scrub BOTH our scalps with this stinky cream rinse. My day now is consisting of laundry, laundry & more laundry….vacumming, vacumming and MORE vacumming :(. I JUST finished doing all that the other day!!!!!!!!!! It’s a bummer because it’s a beautiful fall day and I’d much rather be working outside and burning extra calories that way. Despite that though…I guess everything diet wise is a thumbs up :) I still had my glass of wine last night but it was easily worked into my calories ;). Being here by myself for weeks with 2 children, a 52 acre property, a puppy, and a job really takes its toll. My hubby should be home from Alberta in another week for 5 short days then….it’s back out he goes :o. Hope everyone is doing well and having a better day then me!!! LOL!
