Crazies!!!

Xhasted

I am so exhausted the title doesn't even have the E! Yup! I laid down with Hersh around 8:30 & I zonked out! I fell into such a deep sleep & I couldn't wake myself up. I'd wake up a tiny bit, enough for me to realize I was sleeping & dreaming, but I couldn't wake up more than that. It was like I was drugged! I think Mike drugged my egg sandwich that he was no where around when I made it. :) Speaking of dreams, I've been having FUNKY ones lately! More upsetting than funky but geesh, dream fest! I finally woke up around 10:30 & I felt so out of it. To make matters even better, it is soooooo gloomy outside. Yuck! How's a girl suppose to get energy & smiles when there is no sun?!?!

Weight & such! After my horrific weigh in on Wednesday I've really been watching what I eat & really trying not to eat snacks. If I do eat something between lunch & dinner I eat fruit. It worked, I'm back down to my June weight. I don't know if I should be happy I lost the weight I gained or upset by the fact that I didn't lose any weight in 5 weeks & basically in 6 months. Ugh, how depressing! I am going to really start focusing on eating right though & one of my dreams was about that so it's definitely time to throw away everything & start over. I told Mike about my weight yesterday & he told me he'd gained too. That boy.....he frustrates me. He never eats lunch so when he gets home & while I'm cooking dinner (because he's never home at the same time & I hate dinner being done before he's home) he'll snack so much. He's even made sandwiches before dinner. Hello, I'm cooking! We both need to get back to January's way of eating. It sucked, major ass, but it worked. Or maybe it did, I don't know the stupid scales at Curves went screwy. Their scales still have a problem settling for me. ARGH!

Apparently Mike has joined his unit/company/battalion/something's team for flag football & he has practice tomorrow. I do get a little mad when he makes "exclude the wife" plans but it'll be good for him. Maybe with eating right & his practicing he can start losing the weight he needs too. Anyways, he has those football plans & I'm sure we'll go see a movie. Horrible Bosses comes out today, WOO HOO! I've got to admit, he's finally turned me into a movie junkie. Not so much home/rent movie junkie but at least he's making progress. :) I'm not sure what else we'll do. Probably chill. We are heading to Tucson on Monday to see ol' Penelope. She should be sanded down & maybe stripped down. She may be missing some parts, haha. Mike is quite excited about going & I'm surprised his higher up is letting him but then again, he isn't teaching so he's really not doing anything but being a 'teacher's aid'. He'd probably kill me for calling him that.

Well, I should go do something productive. Good thing I did most of the important stuff yesterday. :)

Oh My Goodness

That is what I can't stop saying today. I am deliriously not fully awake. It is so "one of those days" & ugh! I woke up with Mike at 4:20. My alarm was set for 5:15 & I didn't feel like getting up so I decided I would sleep til mine went off. 15 minutes later I got out of bed & started my morning. Mostly lazily getting ready to work out. I pretty much realized by 4:45 I'd probably regret getting up. I was kinda screwed either way. Get ready quite early, then slowly get more & more tired as I waited to leave or sleep til my alarm & probably be exhausted & out of it. Lose Lose! So, anyways, I was basically ready to leave by 5 but Curves doesn't open til 6 so by the time 5:45 rolled around I was already tired. Curves SUCKED! The little bit of energy I had was zapped quickly. I'm started on round 2 of my working out &........Then 2 morons decided to jump ahead of me. Ok, they were a full minute ahead of me aka one machine & one recovery mat. That's fine, no big deal. Except one of them was using the CurvesSmart card, which usually goes over the 30 sec intervals & they were right next to each other so they kept holding me up. How you may ask, they were a full minute ahead of you. Why yes but because dumbbutt 1 used the card & they were gabbing so much it took them 90 seconds for them both to do one machine. I'd catch up to them so I'd wait on a machine for an extra 30 seconds to give me room then proceed normal for about a minute then I'd have to wait another extra 30 seconds. I did this 4 times & I said FUCK IT! I'm done! Oh, I also started off my Curves session by weighing myself. I told myself it was a bad idea but NO, I didn't listen. I felt skinny today so I felt confident about weighing myself. WRONG WRONG WRONG! Apparently this hippo had gained weight. Curves was frustrating. Super fat, no energy, & morons holding me up, getting on my last nerve! Seriously I CAN NOT STAND working out right next to someone. Then you have to wait for them to get off the machine, then get on yourself & by that time it's 15 seconds into the 30 second push. If you want to gab & take your sweet f*ing time step back & let me go by! ARGH! Ok.....relax. I'm done, I stretch, & go to my car. My.....key......won't turn! The ignition seemed locked & I didn't know how to unlock it. It ended up being just stuck. Then the car didn't seem to want to go. It kept jerking while driving. I hate that car, I seriously hate it! Kia Optimas SUCK! It is a cute car, I like the look of them but they suck. Uncomfortable, Uber sensitive pedals, & you sit SO high! I feel so awkward in that car. My head is only a few inches from the roof. Mike is a ft taller than me, I can't imagine him driving it. :)

Back to my "one of THOSE days" day. I keep dropping everything. I dropped my phone in the car, I nearly dropped my breakfast (over easy eggs) on myself, & I've spilled water on myself at least 3 times. Hahaha! Let's see, I called my vet's office so Cinnie can get her shots (totally should've done them last month) & the number is now something else. Ok, look up the new number & call. Fax, I called a fax machine. 3rd time was the charm, I FINALLY had the right number. Oh geesh, I felt like a dork. So we have an appt this morning with Dr. Ruhfel! Dr. Ruff-el. Hahaha! Oh goodness, this is quite the day. Staying awake will probably be my greatest obstacle. Think Mike would be down for pizza? I'm sure I'll be a zombie by dinner time. :)

Sunday

Today is Sunday & it makes me a little sad. Sunday is always the end of the weekend but we have one more day. This 4 day has gone fast though & that does make me sad. It also sucks that my emotions have been out of whack & creating chaos. Eventually things will settle & I'll be ok.

Today was a pretty good day. We went to a place called SUBStandards (haha) for lunch & Mike & I had gyros, yum! The lady got mad at me because I didn't add a tip to the receipt. It's a sandwich place lady! Oh well. Then we headed to the grocery store to get stuff for tonight (tacos/nachos) & tomorrow, BBQ hamburgers. Yums! After we got home we pulled out the kiddie pool & Hersh kept walking through it. It was funny. He wouldn't stay in it but he'd go out of his way to walk through it. :) Cinnamon still refuses to get in. Mike put her in & rubbed her down with water. Just getting her wet to cool her down. She was NOT happy! :) Silly girl! We ended up renting 2 movies, one with Zach Galifinakis (spelling) which really was completely weird & stupid & Mike rented Resident Evil which is why I'm in here. :) Tomorrow I think will be a mostly lazy day but I'm sure I'll be awake no later than 8 am. Thanks body, I really love NOT sleeping in on the weekend.

Welp, that's all. Tschuess!

Saturday, July 2nd

Can you believe it's JULY already? That half of 2011 is over. I find it kind of sad. But I won't get into that cause who wants a debby downer post?! :)

The weather has been interesting. We got rain Wednesday & Thursday which we desperately needed. We're suppose to get rain again Sunday & Monday. Our nice "break" in rain on Friday & Saturday means it's MUGGY!!! Ugh! It's so humid & sticky. It's 5:23 & I feel like I'm in a sauna. Yesterday I walked the dogs at 6:30 am & I was sweating by halfway. Not because we went very far or because we were walking fast. We only went around the block, which is probably a 5 minute walk, but I let them sniff & saunter along. The sun is what make me sweat, it was so bright & hot at 6:30 in the morning!!! Nasty

We had a decent Friday. I woke up at 4:30 & even though I slept like schiesse and was fully out of it I went to Curves. Ok, I went to Curves because after I turned off my alarm I was wide awake. I wake up 30 minutes early, I felt so exhausted & knew there was no way I could drag my butt out of bed for Curves & if I did it'd be pointless. Been there, tried that, was pointless. So I decided to turn off my alarm & just sleep til whenever. Bam, Awake! Not FULLY awake but that "crap, there's no way I'm going back to sleep so I might as well get up". So I did & I headed to Curves. I tried to weigh in but the damn scale would not settle. I had this problem before when it said I had lost 25 lbs in 6 wks. Then Curved move to a new place & I magically gained back 21 lbs in 9 days. Yeah, what a crash to realize all that "weight loss" was a freaking cruel joke by the scale. So anyways, I stepped on the scale but it wouldn't settle so I called over Sorina (curves' "couch") so she can watch the scale. I figured if I didn't have to keep looking down it might settle. It wouldn't not! It kept jumping from **2.5 to **9.0. Six & a Half Pounds! So fine, whatever, I won't find out if I've lost weight. I know "figure it's in the middle" but that sucks so screw that. I've busted my ass the last 2 weeks. I work harder than ANYONE else at Curves. Granted one person does do 3 rounds but I think I still push myself harder. I don't go as long but every machine I push myself as hard as I can until I'm limping along. Yesterday I'd take an extra 30 seconds (on the second round) every few machines to catch my breathe so I can go hard core again. You're think "of course you think you work out harder" but a number of people have told me the same thing and getting the "is she ok" looks isn't rare. (I moan, groan, grunt, speak to myself when I'm really pushing myself. I can't help it, the shits hard man! :) ) Now, I'm not trying to pat myself on the back. My point is I push myself so hard & I don't eat that horrible. I eat pretty good. And yet I'm not losing weight. So new lady, been there maybe a month, got on the scale & I told her how it wouldn't settle for me. She replied "well, it set for me" & she sounded disappointed. I felt bad for her, I know it sucks when you don't see a lose. Nope, she's lost 12 lbs so far. *Loud Internal Grumble* Glad Curves works for someone else. ;(  Ok, enough. I came home & since I kinda limped the last few machines I decided to take the dogs for a walk. They enjoyed it. :) I decided to stay up because it always takes me a while to fall back asleep & Mike really is an ass when he's woken up. So I played on the computer til 9. I walked into the room & Hersh is laying on the floor by the footboard wagging his tail. I was talking to him & he just kept wagging his tail so I called him into the livingroom so I could give him a rubdown. Mr. Merl isn't normally the "pet me pet me pet me" one but I guess yesterday he wanted to be. :) It was kinda nice for him to be lovey & towards me. In case you don't know, both dogs are daddy's dog. They ADORE Mike. They put up with me. Once in a while they will cuddle & love on me for no reason. :) So anywho, surprisingly Mike woke up soon after & our day started. "Bad Teacher" was playing here at 10:50 & even though Mike doesn't like Cameron Diaz he wanted to see the movie because he didn't want to stay home. Haha. Gotta love when you go to the movies just because you don't have anything else to do & you don't feel like sitting at home. We've done that a few times. So anyways, I did want to see it & I'm glad we did. It was actually a really good movie. JT was really weird in it but the story line was cute. Well, the romance was cute. For lunch we went to Chipotle & I got a chicken bowl with lettuce. A few years ago I started adding lettuce to nachos & I fell in love. Delicious! The bowl actually wasn't very big but I only ate half. Then again, I did get lots of popcorn. My freaking weakness, I LOVES movie popcorn! We came home & chilled the rest of the night. Mike insisted on watching stupid stupid shows & I went to bed at 10.

Today, oh.......today. Haha! Today we get a rental car! We get a rental car because Mike's car is going into the shop to get repaired/painted & it's suppose to take a month. Oh what will my guy do without his beloved mustang? What will he do having to fill up only half as much as the 'stang required? I do not know!

ARGH!!!! I just finished this stupid post, spell checked it, clicked publish & it went to the sign in page. It also did not save the rest of my post. ARGH ARGH ARGH!!!

Ok back. A summary of what I wrote already. We're going to Tucson for Penelope, mike calls her Peen-elope. That's his car. We're getting a rental car & it should be a good size one. Like G6 or Malibu size. Mike wants a G6 so we'll have 2 in the driveway. He's a dork! After that we're going to go see Transformer. Possibly in 3D if we miss the earlier showing (regular screen). After that, Joe's Crabshack. Mike will enjoy his seafood, I will enjoy my drinks. I will probably get the cajun chicken sandwich or whatever. Yay! I'm writing this pissed off because I had all kinds of funnyness already written but stupid blogger signed me off & didn't save that crap. ARGH!

I do not know what the rest of the day holds or the rest of the weekend but time will tell. Tschuess!
