How to Spend a Friday Night

Workout:  None - I felt lazy today and skipped!

So how do you spend your Friday evenings?

Five years ago - I was a newlywed.  At the time we were using all our money to pay off debt.  So what did a typical Friday evening look like?

Why yes, I am knitting.  And yes, I think it is fun.  And no, I'm not any good at it.  But, because of our frugal Friday evenings, by the end of your first year of marriage we had no car payment, no credit card debt, and paid off my student loan!!

Three years ago - Well, financially we were in a good place, but I was 8 months pregnant.  We spent most Friday evenings at home, ordered pizza, and at 8:00 turned on NBC to watch our favorite show, Friday Night Lights.
Why yes, I am still currently watching the show.  And yes, I miss the Dillon Panthers.  But no, I don't miss the old cast. (Okay, now that I'm thinking about all the oldies, I do miss them a little.)

  Last night - I spent my Friday evening cleaning projectile vomit off our computer, carpet, and comforter.

Why yes, it was her first time ever throwing up.  And yes, it broke my heart.  But no, I didn't mind cleaning it up.  Poor baby.  Get well soon!

A little mommy rant!

Workout: HIIT download/2mile run Okay moms, I hate being bombarded in every parent's magazine and internet article about all these super star moms.  You know, the moms  that feed their kids organic food, only let their children play educational games, and make their two year old do service projects. You can judge and put your nose up in the air about me, but that is totally okay, because I judge you, too!!!   Seriously, I want to throw my greasy hamburger in their face and tell them to shove it.  My kids are awesome, healthy, happy, and enjoy life.  And I enjoy the things I do being their mom.  It is totally okay to: 1.   let my kids eat McDonald's french fries.  2.   let my children watch cartoons....right smack dab in front of the t.v.  3.  Allow them to drink  a late night polar pop!!  I believe this is Dr. Pepper. 4.  iPad games instead of story time at bed!! I don't care that these things...

Summer Races

Workout:  3 miles easy - 100% humidity and dew point of 76!!  UGH!! Since fall is here in just a few days I thought I should throw my summer races up on the blog while it is still officially summer!!;) I was pumped about my summer races.  I had a good workout plan in my mind, and I was going to break 23 minutes!!  I was so determined!  Well, I thought I was so determined.  But, I guess I wasn't that  determined because things fell apart pretty quick.  There was vacation, and then our cruise, and then traveling up to Illinois.  And although I could have run during all these events, well,  I didn't.  OOPS!! Fisher Fair 5k I ran this race with my brother, and this was his first race in 20 years!!  It was really cool to run it with him, and to see him get back into running.  I actually only ran "with him" for about 7 steps, and then he took off. Mile 1 -7:34  Yeah, way too fast.  I'm actually pretty good a...

Pregnancy, Fitness, and Food

Workout:  None...yet.  But I might later.  Which is what I've been saying everyday for about the past 3 weeks!!! Hey, you all!!!!!  Guess who decided to reappear?!?!  And guess what I've been up to?  Just cooking up a little boy in this belly of mine! So, I'm 30 weeks pregnant, (31 according to the docs, but whatever) and NOTHING has gone as planned.  And when I say NOTHING I am referring to diet and exercise.  First, I had plans of running as long as I could.  My goal was to run to at least 32 - 34 weeks pregnant.  I made it to 6 weeks, folks.    6 WEEKS!!!  Then, the morning sickness hit, and it hit hard!!!!  I was sick all day and all night.  I was so crazy miserable.  And it didn't go away at the end of the first trimester.  It lasted a good 18 weeks!  Once I started feeling better I decided to just work on staying toned.  I was in the gym lifting weights about 3 days a week.  ...
