Ex Duris Gloria..

well that pretty much sums it up.. Latin Proverbs can really come in handy to describe things..
& this one is going to be my Motto for now.

I've decided with a little ahem, help... ( big Thanks to you all. .:)
that I'm not going to let all this get the better of me , I'm not going to give in to the edges of whatever depression keeps trying to overwhelm me ..& I'm gonna just apparently "buck up"

Nuff said :)

Why.. why.. why do we do it??

In a moment of what must have been masochistic self destruction ....I decided that right about now (while TOM is still not quite getting the hint to Move ON!)
...& I'm been having nightly arguments as to whether to help me settle for sleep "just a bit of chocolate ( yea I'm back to the pure dark baking kind again)
is reaaaaaly an Awesome time to take a chance at work & WEIGH my self.

...BAD idea is all I'm saying... things do NOT look any improved...
& to be very honest I am panicking here gang... I have to do something drastically different & STAY doing it if I'm gonna peal off these extra lbs that followed me home from Holiday... & through Christmas have seemed to have settled in REAL well...
It's all just doiin my head in!..& I'm scared I can't fix this mess I've made..& it's adding to the feeling of being sucked into the vortex of depression that I've been fighting...

I need something - ANYTHING- a kick the Ass , a personal trainer to tell me what I should be doin.. Somethin real that is goin to work for Me - , & a boogeyman to come visit me after work.... so I don't start eating stupid mindless things at midnght becasue I'm lonely ...

K nuff blither for now ... I'll probably delete this any who...


anyone got a real good stapler for my mouth - that might help eh ?

It's MONDAY...

Ok so for some that must be like Uh Huh... ya big deal! ...& I think for most of you south of the border that is a Holiday today ... so the question is WHAT are you doin today??

I'm just on here catching up with blogs sending condolences to all of you with sick critters like Janel, Christie & Karenna & getting some much needed incentive from those that are Rockin things like Chantal & Laurie to get off my sorry butt & out into the pouring rain & off to the Gym!

So without further ado ...I'm off!!
Hope you all have a great day & survive whatever the fates & weather throw your way!

& for those of you that care...YES I'm drinking my water...warm- since it's cold out ..but YES I am :) HOW bout YOU??


* laughs slightly hysterically* ....& wanders off....

Happy Valentine's All :)

Good Morning.. its 7am & I'm up doin what any normal woman would be doing today ... ok scratch that
I'm doing what some insane Mother's might be doing....making Pink pancakes for the kids! ~lol~

Yea.. not exactly romantic in a traditional Hallmark way... but way fun...
then a normal day including the gym ( thanks btw my workout kicked butt yesterday complete with some VERY 80's "hairband music"!! Tee hee) then off to watch Volleyball after school , fit in dinner & Tai Kwon Do & Dance class before stuffing kidlets in bed ... phew

then the secret good stuff happens after that including the cutest pair of those little mule slippers with feathers on them ....shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!

Determination..or pure dumb luck..

don't know which of them it was.. but I'm feeling better.. I suppose a whack of Vit C, echinacea, Neocitran & a couple nights of actually getting to sleep at a decent hour probably helped! ~ Lol~

So needless to say whatever it was that I was fighting all last week seems to have turned tail & run. & today I feel pretty much human..
So I thought I'd post something new that wasn't all dreary!
I went to the gym this Am & did a 20 min HIIT followed by another 40 min steady state. & it felt Great!

I know tomorrow I should go do weights , but it seems lately I'm really uninspired about the endless , mindless "up down, up down " of all that- at least after cardio you're feelin sweaty & like you DID something.. or at least with the readout on the machines it tells you you "went" somewhere!

I wish there was someway to find something to excite me about doin the weights again..to be Gung ho about every workout day ...instead of just mostly going thru the motions..
anyone have any bright ideas??

& just for fun...

Someone stop that Bus...

Ok- so maybe I didn't really get run over by a bus this Morn' I sure feel like it tho'! Everything aches -Everywhere!

I don't know if it's that my poor bod is trying desperately to stave off whatever virus is going thru my workplace.. seems like half the patients are sick & the other day we were missing 4 nurses in just one shift! Or it could be whatever cold/cough thing Jamie had, then Jess , & now Steven is suffering thru.. !!
It seems this time of year EVERYONE is getting sick!.. with Something!
Can we just cancel Jan & Feb & go straight to Spring Pleeaaaaase??!

Or it could be being woken up in the middle of the night with darling daughter saying she had bad dreams- that she had to tell me all about & that she has a "sore tummy" -like the beginning of cramps... Poor darlin...
& Oh - did I mention that Mother Nature In her amusement has seen to it that we've gotten on the same cycle- sooooooo part of Me feelin like crap may be me "hurrying" to catch up .. guess the day will tell!

For now ..I'm off to do laundry.. that I can manage.

hmmmm alright then..
