Yes, yes, yes...

Yes, tis the purpose of this blog.. thanks for bonking us on the heads again mom!

I know I've been using this excuse ALL FREAKING WINTER, but REALLY... when I finally get over being sick, I will be able to focus more on exercising, etc.

Today is nasty head cold, sore throat, upset stomach, tired, dizzy....AGAIN... however, I managed to dope myself up enough yesterday to actually exercise/get chores done.

So I'll focus on the good stuff I got done yesterday:

1) Walked Douglas to school, with Drew in stroller, on way home walked the length of the canal (paved portion), and around neighborhood to home. Total exercise = 35min. of walking

2) Mowed lawn. Total exercise = about 30min. of walking/pushing lawnmower

3) Moved large pile of wood in back corner of property... the branches that fell off of Keri's tree pre-Christmas, after a heavy wet snow storm.. that day was spent helping cut down branches, and cut into smaller pieces, then chucking them over the fence to be dealt with this spring...well yesterday I dealt with it. (Also, the fact that Douglas got a STOP and GO at school, and the PRINCIPLE of the school called to have him tell me WHY helped...I made Douglas work his butt off when he got home...hence wood pile moving)
Total exercise = 1 1/2 hours lifting, bending, pulling, piling, carting, hollering at Douglas to KEEP MOVING (Drew never did slow down), over and over and over.

So long story short, everyone slept relatively well last night, a lot got done yesterday, and Drew and I haven't done much but sit and stare at the tube today.... At least I have a cold to blame it on today, eh?

Oh and weight update? I hopped on my wii fit last week (for the first time in about a year) and found that I'd gained 9lbs. Perfect. Not really heading in the right direction here...
