So the last two weeks like every week since I started back to school were crazy. I think I'm getting used to my new normal, craziness. Last was good for the most part. Only lost 1lb last week, not thrilled but it was a loss not a gain so that's good. This week though I feel like I'm getting back into my grove that I had going before Christmas. Today the scale showed that I was down 3 lbs.! That's the kind of numbers that I like to see. I wasn't able to get on the treadmill as much as I wanted last week but I still walked a total of 8 miles, so not bad.
In other news:
Friday Jan. 28th I took the kids to see the Living Legends, it was so fabulous!! Both the kids loved it, even if before hand they both were a little whinny about having to go. The performers were incredible, if you have a chance to see them I highly recommend it.
Saturday Jan. 29th I took the kids to see the BSU women's basketball team play. We lost, everyone was very sad, but it was a ton of fun. Again both kids weren't so sure about going, but once we were there they couldn't sit still in their seats. The crowd was sadly rather small so the kids had a lot of room to dance around to the music. They both made it on the big screen 4 times each, which made their night. Part way through the game Miss Magoo leans over to ask me where the "women" were. I pointed to the court and said there they where. She was a little offended and told me that "those were teenagers" and reminded me that I had promised to take her to a "women's" basketball game. So we had a little talk about how women's and girl's basketball teams were really the same thing, just different names.
Earlier in the day on Saturday I had taken the kids to BSU for their Engineering Day. It was crazy busy. There where demonstrations, exhibits, and hands-projects around every corner. The kids got to build with keva blocks, helped to make a balloon replica of some kind of molecule or other, try and build a earthquake proof house, ride a hoover craft, made a miniature catapult and finally made a spool car. All in all it was a great weekend, and it took me all week to recover from it.
Last week was just more school, kids at the dad's and me trying to catch my breath and get ready to start this week and do it all over.
Totals so far: 37lbs
On another side note Miss Magoo and I went and saw Tangled Saturday while her brother had his birthday party. Loved loved loved the movie, this is one we will be buying when it comes out!!
