So last night was good. We watched The Secret of Kells with the kids. Probably would have been awesome for eight-year olds, but a little over my kids’ heads. “J” and I loved it. Awesome animation, great story, well done. So after the kids went down our neighbor came over to tell us about his trips to Ireland, offering some advice. It was great to get an insider’s view. Then we started the huge job of packing, and I am feeling pretty good. I will feel much better after I have worked through the loads of laundry I am doing, but still feel like we are pretty well set up. Then off to bed.
Woke up this morning and got the kids ready for school. I don’t know what was going on, but all of the kids were crazy today! I seriously was losing it, I hate disciplining other people’s kids, they sure don’t listen to me! It all makes me really happy that vacation is right around the corner.
Now we are home and I am blogging, catching up with emails and steaming an artichoke for lunch. Then I will be doing laundry and getting ready for the trip. I tried this new app called Virtuagym for workouts to do while I am in Ireland, and I tried it out today. It was the 20 minute circuit including squats and push-ups, they automatically make you wait 45 seconds between each workout, but I was anxious to do more work in less time and jogged in place during the pauses. Overall, my body feels good, and I hope to make time to do these a couple of times a week while we are gone. Hope this helps me continue my healthy lifestyle even when we are abroad! Wish me luck. Since I am cramming for Biggest Loser final weigh-in tomorrow, I am thinking of dancing later today. We'll see what kind of energy I have then.
I am going to try to get to Ross when "V" wakes up, just tried on some vacation clothes and decided I need a new dress for Easter. Everything I have fancy is short sleeves, maybe I could find a deal there. “J” took off part of the day for golfing, but when he gets home I am planning to do Tri-tip burritos with leftover rice. My mom makes them, they are super good. Just trying to keep up with healthy food for the final weigh-in for Biggest Loser tomorrow morning! Wish me luck; we are all doing so well!
