Well, another weekend has come and gone. My daughter is now sounding out words and already knows a few simple sight words. She is using her finger to track words while she "reads". She says she likes math and did "homework" on Friday night for 1 1/2 hours in her Preschool workbook. While signing Valentine's cards, she said, "Mommy look, I can make an 'm'." and she did. I then had her write the word "mom" since she knows how to write 'o'. My daughter amazes me.
Before 5pm on Sunday, my weekend filled up fast. Friday night I am going to a comedy club with a friend and then my friend from Spokane is coming to visit for the day on Saturday. I am SO excited!! I am hoping to make it up there over Spring Break. She said we can stay at her house so I just have to budget for gas and food. I would like to take my daughter to Riverfront Park and also to see the wolves in Idaho. Money for that shouldn't be TOO much....
This summer we are going to go to the Millwood car show and then over to Seattle where she can meet her cousin, Aunts and Uncle. I also want to take her to the aquarium.
As I'm watching the Grammy's, Rhianna is on. I look at her and am just amazed. For one, she is a great entertainer but also she is another one of us who survived abuse. Unfortunately, I heard rumors that she is in contact with her ex who beat the crap out of her and this communication happened shortly after the incident happened. That part sickens me. Before she performed, her ex performed and I about puked. He is a woman beater and doesn't deserve recognition. Reformed? Highly doubtful since from day ONE after the incident his outlook on things was not right. Counseling with a"family friend" and then 2 weeks later saying he's "fine" is not right. I pity the next woman that falls for that piece of crap.
I weighed in and measured at Curves a few weeks ago. Disgusted. I have been faithfully working out on a set schedule and what happens after a month? I GAINED weight and lost 0 inches. this is why I quit exercise because this happens EVERY time. I don't get it. I'm sure people reading this will think "well, it's because you ate like crap" um...no. Yes, I went to Seattle and splurged on cheesecake a few times but you don't gain 10lbs from just that. A few weeks I was tracking my food online through Weight Watchers and that week, I gained weight. I even stayed within my points. What changed? Exercise. I'm wondering if what Curves has set up is doing more harm than good. I will stay with them one more month and if nothing happens I'm going to get out of my contract with them based on the fact that I'm doing nothing but gaining weight.
Valentine's day is coming up and it's crap. This is not based on the fact that I am still single after 1 1/2 years though that has sucked big time. = ( Even when I have had a boyfriend at this time it hasn't been anything special. My ex Mike bought me chocolates (when I really didn't want them because I knew I would eat all of them and gain weight) and took me to dinner. Dinner WAS nice but my bitch of an exroommate actually set me up to tell me he was buying me flowers. When I waited all night for them and didn't get any I was devastated. Bitch.
As far as Scentsy goes, this month is 10% off month and I am so tempted to buy everything I can lol No more winter scents and I keep thinking I need more warmers! No, I don't. I have enough. ha ha
