Whew, another late-night workout. Oh well, you do what you have to do! Tonight's workout was Cardio X, and though I'm covered in sweat, it felt like a breeze for some reason. Probably because I had a protein shake with dinner, which gives me extra energy and endurance.
Today was an interesting day. First of all, it was Spring Break. I was up so late last night, and my husband got me up around 6 AM to pack his lunch. Afterwards, I laid back down and the next thing I knew, I was waking up at 11:15 AM! My children were both awake and playing video games. MOTHER OF THE YEAR, right here! I have to admit, the extra sleep was nice. I never get to sleep in between work and the kids' soccer games and ballet lessons.
So, I had to take my daughter to the doctor for a persistant sore throat, and once that was over with, I decided to take them to the big McDonald's with the cool playground. On our way into the restaurant, we yielded to cars exiting the drive thru line in order to get into the front door. One car acted like it was stopping, so I grabbed my kids' hands and proceeded to walk forward. Then the car SPED UP and actually tried to hit us! I was griping and pushing my children in front of me out of harm's way. Once we reached the sidewalk, the car honked the horn shortly at us, and an old man popped his head out of the window. He said, "Come here, lady", to which I replied, "I don't think so". I could see he was an elderly man with a Handicapped sticker on his car, and he was enjoying a big vanilla ice cream cone in his 1970's car. He then stated, "I was just going to give you these coupons to Burger King, you stupid idiot". I think my jaw hit the sidewalk. Honestly, it was the highlight of my day though. I have been chuckling about it ever since. What a crabby old man. Hindsight is 20/20 as I think of all the unkind comebacks I could have said to him... but didn't.
So, from there we rented free movies from the library and came home. The kids watched a movie while I did some light cleaning around the house. I fixed supper and went to work around 6:00 just to see a client. Then I came home and hung out with my husband and children. That's when my husband informed me that he has a stalker. He takes some of his contractors out to lunch sometimes, and about 2 weeks ago, he took this woman to a very nice restaurant. He said she text-messaged him about 4 times to tell him what a nice time she had. Then, he said that she texted him last Friday and said, "Have a nice weekend with your beautiful family". While that sounds really nice to say, how did she know he has a family?? He never mentioned us to her. He also has his facebook set to private, and his profile pic is that of a dog. Then tonight, she texted him again, and ended the text with "(((HUGS)))". He doesn't typically get text messages from his contractors. So, as he was telling me, a twinge of jealousy ran through me... until he showed me her picture. Now I know I should not be shallow, but the woman is quite large and unattractive. I'm sure she is beautiful on the inside, and hopefully she has no plans to continue stalking my husband or our family. I hope I'm just reading more into it than there really is. My husband seems quite bothered by this woman, however, and said he will have a talk with her if the texts continue. Deep down, I am happy that she is not "hot". I know, I know... I need to go read my Bible now.
That is about all the news for the day. As I said, I worked out very late tonight. It still counts though. I continue to see progress in my body, mostly in how my clothes are fitting. My favorite pair of jeans (size 8) are now so big on me that the rear end just hangs off (I need a belt). I also have plenty of room in the legs. These same jeans used to be tight on me. I may have to go down to a size 6 before too much longer. VERY exciting :D Ok, I'm going to post some pics now. Good night all !
