Just a quick check in before I have to get kids up and going. Today’s Skye’s first full day of Kindergarten. Sean has a dental appointment, so he’ll be missing school (he’s getting a filling, I think the novacaine will probably be more than he can deal with.)
This morning started with a backed up toilet. And I thought exercising at 5 am sucked. That’s nothing in comparison to standing in an inch of cold water barefoot and plunging an overflowing toilet! I was more than happy to jump on the elliptical for 60 after I got it successfully unclogged (yay me!) And then I still managed the 30 minutes of sheer torture Jillian puts me through care of her Biggest Winner DVD collection. I did the last one in the 5 DVD series. I don’t think I’ve ever made it through all 5 before!
Time to run. I’ve got kids to wake, clothe and feed in less than 30. I may have to start getting up at 4:30 to give myself enought time to get some blogging in. Not super thrilled about that idea.
UPDATE 10:22 PM
Today went better than it started. Food was on target. I had my small box of Junior Mints at the movies (Inglourious Basterds - Tarantino outdid himself. Just really excellent.) I’m setting in bed now (watching Making Over America with Trinny and Susannah, quite entertaining. There even more brutal than Clinton and Stacey - I believe these two British chicks are the original What Not To Wear girls, so that makes sense. Patty, you MUST watch. You’ll love it!)
I am SO looking forward to sleeping in til 6:30 tomorrow morning. OH HOW LUXURIOUS! I can hardly wait to get to sleep so I can enjoy it! Successful end to day 5!

Omgoodness that photo is so funny!
So glad to hear the new movie is good, we have been considering seeing it. And the new show sounds fabulous, I love “What Not to Wear”.
Every day you come w/so much excitement and determination, I have no doubt you’ll make it all of the way to day 30. Is the Biggest Winner DVD really tough? I previewed one of the other BL DVDs and it was so beginner level that I hated it. Maybe I’ll have to check this one out.
What type of elliptical do you have? Now that I had to quit the gym due to scheduling reasons I really want to buy one for home. Just curious.
Keep up the great work, you’re a total inspiration.
