Week Wrap-Up

Thursday was finally my last orthodontist appointment!!  They took final pictures and my retainers!!!

It was worth every penny!!

Angie and I at the Synagis dinner Snapchat style

Mary's is a nice restaurant here in town and I had never been before.  I had heard how great it was and it did not disappoint!!  We had a whole spread of appetizers, pumpkin, apple and leek soup, ceasar salad, my entree was steak, shrimp, baked potato, croissant and melon, then cheesecake for dessert!!!  It was entirely too much!!  I took almost my entire dinner and cheesecake to a friend of mine for dinner.  It was really good though!!

Friday

I was on call today but I didn't get called in.  I met Niki out shopping and then we decided to have a pizza night at her house.  I picked up Papa Murphy's on the way down to her house.  Ryker helped me make his little pizza.  He mostly just ate the cheese and pepperoni off of it though!

We sat and watched all the good tv from Thursday night since I was at that dinner and didn't get to watch any of them.  She had some empty bikes for her spin class the next morning so I told her I would come to it. 

 

Saturday

I was up early to get all my stuff together for the day since I knew I would be gone all day.  I headed down to Goreville for her spin class. 

606 calories!!  I'll take it!!  It was a really good class, I wish I could always go to it!!

We went back to her house to change clothes and go to her other house to work on it.  Her husband had knocked out both the chimney's so we moved all the brick and torn down drywall out of the house.  We went back to her house to get cleaned up to go to a bonfire at her moms house.  It was cold but it was fun to get to hang out with everybody.

Sunday

I woke up to a freezing cold house!!  I didn't even want to get out of bed!  I finally did, ran some errands, mowed the yard, did some laundry and finally sat down to watch some more of The Good Wife.  Now, I guess it's time to finish folding the laundry and get ready to start the week.

Stop & Smell the Roses {Week 17 Vlog}

Straighter teeth and celebrating my birthday with friends and family....that is what I'm loving this week!!

Now, go watch all the other vlogs from today!!

March....already over??

It's the last day of March already??  Can anybody else tell me where this month went??  I realize I've been busy but I'm just shocked this year is a quarter of the way over with already. 

It also means June is 3 months closer!  Exciting because, hopefully, I will be braces-free!!  Scary because I will be turning another year older.....EEEKKK!!  I keep telling myself it's going to be ok, that it's just a number.  I believe it one day and freak the other!

Summer time is also closer, even thought the weather has been close to summer weather for around a month now.  I love love LOVE summer!  Because of my birthday of course!  See, excited "it's going to be fine" attitude right now!

I am definitely in need of a v.a.c.a.y. and it will be here so soon!!  I counted my bathing suits tonight, you know, I need to start packing now even though I'm still a few weeks form leaving and I have 12!!  Who in the world needs 12 bathing suits!!  Especially this girl, who is no where near bathing suit ready!?!  I did GREAT this week on watching what I ate and running....until tonight....I went to my BFF and her brother and his family had a cookout.  I went with them and they grilled yummy brauts, hot dogs, hamburgers and all kinds of good sides.  And the best part of the whole night was when her Mom said "I brought ECLAIR cake....it's in the house!!!"  Seriously, the most yummy dessert I had all week....probably because it's the only dessert I had all week!! 

I'll be back on track tomorrow when I go back to work....and get to the grocery to stock back up on some healthy stuff!!  I am loving the EAS advantage shakes and chobani pineapple greek yogurt!
                

Well, I hope everybody had a great last day of March!!  I'll be back tomorrow with my weekend wrap-up! 

Weekend Wrap-Up

Friday
I spent most of the day sleeping and blogging.  And trying to figure out what I could eat without having to chew it....I ate oatmeal.  On the way to work, I stopped by Sonic and got a route 44 vanilla diet coke and it was so good!  I hadn't had one in a long time!  Then, for dinner I ate mashed potatoes.  As you can see, my day is revolving around food right now, pretty much soft food. 

Saturday
Slept all day then went to work but not before stopping at Sonic again to get another vanilla diet coke!

Sunday
I slept off and on all day.  I got up and took my lazy butt to the gym.  I ran 2.25 miles!!  YAY me!! 

After that got some groceries then went by Target.  Love me some Target!  I wanted to get home in time to see the Oscars.  The only movie I had actually watched was "The Help" but I love seeing what everybody wears!  I know, I'm such a girl.  After seeing that it was pretty much a sweep by "The Artist" I think I should see it.  Although it seems like I usually don't like the movies that actually win all the awards.
On a different note, I didn't have to take motrin all day, so hopefully it's going to start being easier.  I guess only time will tell.  Hope everybody has a great week!!  The weather is going to be really pretty!!  I'm definitely looking forward to next weekend......off from both jobs (hopefully, I'm on-call friday night)!!

Confessional Friday

I'm sad I'm not going to Blissdom this weekend, maybe next year.

Really excited Carrie has twitter!!  @carrieunderwood

A couple of weeks ago I posted that I was doing something for myself that I had been wanting to do for a while.  Well, I did it yesterday!!  I got braces!!!  I had my consultation yesterday and when we were talking about when to start them the lady said she had an opening in about 15 minutes.  I thought about it for a minute and then decided to just do it!!  Why wait any longer, right??  So far I've been ok as long as I have motrin to take.  I'm looking at it as a good weight loss plan, they don't hurt unless I chew, so it looks like I will be drinking my meals and eating things like oatmeal and yogurt.

I'm loving the show "Once Upon a Time"....thank goodness for HuluPlus or I would be so lost!

I have to work this weekend, hoping it's a good one

It was 72 degrees yesterday and I wore my bright yellow scarf, today it's 42 degrees and I'm thinking about wearing my snow boots just so my feet will be warm!  I'm freezing!!
