Well ladies, the spaghetti worked at keeping me from getting hungry. It's 1 pm and I haven't gotten hungry yet. Maybe I ate too much?? LOL First I underdo, then overdo?? Anyway, I have a GREAT accomplishment to share. My 9 yr old son brought home a note yesterday asking me to bring cookies and cupcakes for his Christmas party tomorrow at school. I'll be buying the cupcakes (I'm no good at baking them!!), but I had the cookie dough here, sooooooo....I just baked cookies for a class of 20 kids (2+ cookies/child) and I DID NOT eat a single bite!!!
Thank God for spaghetti for breakfast!!!!!!!!! For me, this is quite an accomplishment. And the thing is, no one is here except me so I could've easily cheated and been accountable to no one but ME! I'm my toughest critic, though........I can get pretty ugly with myself sometimes!
Anyway, Hanna I do go exercise at curves 3x per week (this is only my second week). I'm supposed to get 2 extra points (WW) on the days I exercise.
Maybe I should've eaten a cookie afterall!! LOL I don't have much shopping left to do....Daughter was tired today, so I'm going to do it this evening after I go workout. Mostly just have to buy the food I'll be prepping.
Does anyone else feel every year like they don't buy enough for their kids on Christmas? I'm always afraid my kids will be disappointed. I know, I know...that's truly not what it's all about. But I remember, as long ago as it's been, how it feels to be disappointed at Christmas because a sibling or someone else got more than I did. It's human nature for a kid to notice....doesn't make them bad, make them a normal kid. My son has never acted disappointed, really. Although year before last after he opened all his gifts, he said, "Well, I didn't get the _____ that I wanted." (I don't remember what it was) But he was happy with what he did get. I guess I let my kids put too much pressure on me. They're having a good Christmas....that's all that's important, I guess.
Going to do more CLEANING! ugh
