So I began my diet today, I have never been on one.

I went to this site http://caloriecount.about.com/ and it has awesome tools. The only thing I dispise is the 1200 calorie diet. What? Ugh, no more chips and donuts? hahaha. I'm seriuosly starving. =(

Today I had:

*an Asian salad - yummy!
*a small grapefruit - not so yummy.
*5 16 oz. glasses of ICE COLD water - I had to fill my tummy up somehow.
*2 8 oz. glasses of Soy milk

I also started a workout routine that you can personalize yourself or get it personalized on the same website. It was great, I love working out. Though today I found I was EXTREMELY rusty. When I played soccer everything was so natural and easy for me. I went into that gym with that same mentality. Apparently I've forgotten that I don't play soccer anymore and I'm 70 lbs. heavier. Yes, I said 70! >=( When that was pointed out to me, the work out soon went smoothly after that. I can be stubborn when I want to be. hehehe.

My favorite thing to do...................run.

What can I say, I'm still a soccer player at heart!

President Muffin

Today we were talking about the Prophet, President Monson. When I asked Erick who is our current Prophet.... he said, "President Muffin" hahaha.

They saved my life!

Earlier we were playing Pirates. We had "invisible" swords because I'm cheap and scared someone will poke their eye out. LOL. Anyhow, at one point Adam "got me" and I fell to the couch and pretended I was dead. Needless to say, they were mighty proud of themselves. (come to think about it, I wonder, is that a good thing? To kill mommy?) Anyhow (LOL) I kept there still and didn't move, the kids stopped cheering and realized something was wrong. I tried not to laugh or giggle. They moved slowly and began "Mommy?...Mom? MOM! Mommy, are you alright??" I could tell they were starting to get worried (I know, I'm so cruel!!) and then Erick said..(CLEARLY, mind you. Speech Therapy has been working! lol), "Hold on, Mommy, I'll save you!!" Suddenly I felt someone pressing on my chest and then Erick opened my mouth (at this point I had no idea, I thought he was gonna stick something in my mouth. I was being brave and praying it wouldn't be poop) and I felt his face press against mine and then a huge BLOW in my mouth!!!! I got up right away and started laughing. I was like, "WHAT??" LOL. I said, "Thank you, you saved my life!! Now,......where in the world did you learn that??"........Adam got all sheepish and Erick yells, "Dinosaurs!" I forgot that yesterday we were watching Jurassic Park and there was a scene where the little kid get electrocuted and wasn't breathing and the paleontologist has to perform CPR on the kid. WOW, the things these kids pick up. LOL. I couldn't stop laughing and I'm still in shock. They did it real good too, they have more than a good idea about what to do if someone is not breathing. LOL. My Little Heroes!!!!

I want ONE good night sleep. Just ONE. That'll make all the difference. I don't think I remember what a good night sleep is. I could only imagine what it use to feel like. Ugh! I hate staying up all night with a crying child, I own up to my nickname in the morning - Grouch!

I told Erick about last night and the unexpected meeting with his soldier and he just laughed his butt off. What a punk! LOL. Though I do love hearing him laugh. Still, he was making fun of me. =( LOL.

Unexpected

Earlier today, I looked into Craigslist because I've been wanting to buy my older boys Christmas outfits. They've been growing like crazy these past couple of months. I've tried Walmart but they don't have what I'm looking for and the sizes are always screwed up. So, on Craigslist I found a Size 5 outfit -very cute! and it was only $5!!! I know, I quickly emailed and scheduled to pick it up today @ 7pm.
When I went to pick it up, a man showed up at the door. He looked at me all like "Ah". I began to feel awkward. Then he asks me, "You're Erick's wife, aren't you?" I was totally taken back and mind you, I was totally messed up - I had sweats on, a plaid button shirt wrapped around my waist, no make up (exposing my hideous face), a skull sweater and chanclas (flip flops) with my ashy feet (I know, ewww LOL) and my hair in a dorky pointy tail (I was playing with my hair earlier and left it this way without knowing.) LOL. I was under the impression I was meeting a WOMAN! not one of my husband's co-workers. I was so embarrassed and to make it worse, I kept acting awkward to the point he looked at me like "ooookaaay" LOL. I mean, come on, I try and make a good impression on people my husband works with, I just want to make him look good...then this happens. LOL. I know, I'm not friggin' Angelina Jolie although I AM just as cool. haha! So, I hope I didn't make my husband look too bad, I mean it was dark after all. LOL.

An attack on Love

I just got done talking to my baby love. He's amazing and doing well. He told me that something has been bugging him and making him feel uneasy. I asked him what and why? He told me that it might be satan because he knows that he loves me so much and he wont let me go for anything in this world. I must admit, I got all dreamy-eyed. My husband is so sweet and cute but I have no doubt this is true. Our relationship is mending and we are falling inlove all over again. Things are going great and we can't get enough of each other. Yet there is this uneasy feeling that has been attacking us both and I have no doubt it's the adversary trying to break our relationship. It's true what is said, "When you are most happy, Satan is on the prowl" We've been praying and just trying to keep our love strong. We also joke about it, saying that when we are on our first date when he comes home, Satan is gonna pop out of the bushes with divorce papers. LOL. We're silly like that.
I miss him so much!!! I want him home already!!! I really hope that he gets 12 months instead of 15. I want him to hug me with his very muscular arms to the point where I can't breathe. LOL. I LOVE YOU PAPA!!!
