Productive Day...

Today, started out dreary and hot...cloudy and foggy!! I actually didn't think I'd get anything done because it was so crappy that I just wanted to curl up and sleep all day---Right!!! But I surprised myself, I not only did three loads of laundry, vacuumed, got a couple scrapbook pages completed, and actually started my exercise tapes, yes, I said exercise. I made a New Year's resolution to start exercising this year in an attempt to lose weight and have just now gotten around to starting--hee, hee!! Now it remains to be seen if I can actually keep it up and really lose about 20 lbs. before our trip to Minnesota in August--well, okay realistically, if I could lose 10 lbs and get into some of my fishing pants, I'd be happy; but I'm shooting for 20! And Bruce was happy to hear that I had exercised too---he's an avid walker so he's really been on me to hit it...I get preached to all the time, which really doesn't motivate me at all, so he should know better but he just keeps it up anyway.

Made motel reservations for Friday night in Milford, Ohio so we can see our youngest grandson's ball game...it's his last one then he has to go to his dad's for the summer (missing the next 4 games). We decided it would be wise to go over on Friday, do something with the kids before they leave for the next two months, then stay overnight for the game---then I get to stop at scrapbook stores on the way home!! We were going to just drive over Saturday morning but it's a 3 hr drive and the game is at 11 a.m., so we'd have to get up really early to get there by 10 or 10:30...so instead I suggested going on Friday morning and taking the kids to the Newport Aquarium, which we haven't seen in about 5 yrs and just spend the day with them having fun...Bruce jumped on that one real fast. So that's our weekend plans.

Nothing much besides stormy weather has been going on around here this week...our life is so exciting! I don't know how well I'm going to do staying home instead of working but time will tell and if nothing else, I can attempt to find something very part time to at least get me out of the house a day or two a week....that is after our Minnesota trip.

WEll, that's all for now, my dryer is buzzing away and Bruce is yelling about it. Catch you all later.
