Muddy Monday

Had a great day today. Did my workout in the morning and felt great about the discipline it took to get up early and start my day right. On a Monday no less. I ate a light yogurt than later had a banana. I stayed on my feet doing laundry and dishes and other house hold cleaning duties. By 11 am I was famished. I decided to have a Special K bar which helped me get thru until lunch.


I kept trucking on with cleaning my house. I used a Bible app on my phone to listen to several chapters today. It was Genesis 1-3 and Romans 1. I found my day went better after having God's Word read to me.


Lunch consisted of leftovers my Hubby and I got yesterday. A bucket of ribs! Such an unhealthy choice and not diet conducive. After I had 2 ribs I felt satisfied but not full. Along with the ribs we got 2lbs of French Fries.


Since I have 2 beautiful girls that think they are the next best thing, I heated some up for them. Admittedly I took 8 of them but I still enjoyed them. The thing is I can't eliminate all foods. With a family I need to moderate what I enjoy. So I had some but not near as many I would have liked to.


We are loving our current "Winter" weather here in Wisconsin. We enjoyed ourselves today. Selah harassed the chickens. Elise and I strolled around the yard. And than we went for a walk around our 8 acre farm. Selah seemed to be drawn to the mud and water holes. I kept having to shepherd her away from them after she nearly slipped in one.

She loves to touch their tale feathers, along with bopping them on the back!!

After Selah saw Elise in her Moby she went inside and had to bring Malinda along for our walk. 

When my husband came home we enjoyed steaks and salad. I spent the rest of the night using a Rembrandt teeth whitening kit. We picked them up from Walgreens on Sunday. With coupons, I bought 2 kits for $17.00.


I have decided to claim Fridays as my weigh-in days. I have also picked up some reward M&M's for when I lose my first 5lbs.


Goodnight world
