hehe, HI!!!
now dontchoo go thinkin i’ve ditched my blog!!!
(remember, i PAY for my hosting services. HA!)
january’s been a bizzy month. not only that, i needed some time to get off my butt and get my nose out of my blog and get back on the track of life. i have work and goals and stuff and a house to clean and manage (5 pets and a husband…haha!)…and it just wasnt getting done. hehe! i’m sure you all understand—balance and moderation!!!
im feeling a bit more motivated, energized and HAPPY. i’ve been exercising consistently for over a week—a HUGE accomplishment for me—and its helping me sleep sooo much better, and my mood has evened out nicely. whew!
i do have to thank my good ole buddy amy for her motivation and encouragement!! we check in with each other every day and have our geekynerdy excel spreadsheets we share with each other with our daily goals and stuff. its awesome. i love the accountability! thanks, amy!!!!! (who btw, has lost 3lb!! go tell her you’re proud of her at her quest blog!!)
i’ve also been very active in my sparkpeople team for folks from Wisconsin. they are a HOOT! we’ve got people trying to lose 10 pounds, and people trying to lose well over 100. but ya know, we’re all in the same boat really. its great to mix it all up!
anyhoo, last friday i did a natural resources program with 35 inner city 4th graders. you wanna talk about wild! we had a blast. they were split up into 3 groups and everything was running quite smoothly until they were all in one group…in the SAME ROOM. heh. then the behavior went out of control! :-O
i’ve done this type of thing before in the same manner, but with different teachers/chaperones. but this group of leaders weren’t quite as competent; you could tell the kids didn’t respect them. and it didnt help that one of the chaperones was literally screaming her head off, rudely scolding the kids…it just riled them up more! ah well…hopefully she was stressed out enough that she wont come back with another group. teehee!
everything else is just dandy here! we’re gearing up for another freakish weather change tonite. a week ago it was in the single digits, today it was 44…and tonite it will be -4. its currently sleeting and we have a winter storm warning for overnite. ahhh the joys of the upper midwest! hehe!
i hope i havent lost all my readers and that you’re still lurking about!! i’ve been reading your blogs, too, just not commenting much for now. i would like to consistently check in here a few times a week—we’ll see if i can get my blog-groove-thang back.
haha!
have a SUPERB tuesssdee evening!
~josey~
p.s. oh and here’s a little giggle for ya…anyone who has cats has experienced this! i know i have! LOL…(only my cats will knock the boxes on the floor, open them and eat the pizza!)
