Hmmm yea well .. ahh oops.

Hi all ... & first off I should say a thanks to those of you who have kept pestering me ;) .. no --pestering sounds bad.. perhaps caring is the simplest way to put things!

Yes, I know once again I have disappeared off the face of the earth ..or just out of the reach of you my Blends.
I really meant to tell you about the good things that were happening in March..really I did.. In fact I sorta thought I had ..again with that whole "ooops" thing.
Maybe it's just that ski trips & birthday parties are a bit redundant here in my blog & my brain thought I'd done it already.


So yes - we went Skiing for Easter.. great fun .. friends joined us & we had a great time :)
Then next was Jessica's 13th b-day party & all the planning adventures that entailed to put together the family b-day & of course come up with something suitably "Unique" for the BIG 13!


So we started off here- did the Pizza & "Jones soda" thing.. not sure why it is thought to be so cool by that crowd .. but hey as a Mom who aims to please.. we bought a flat of it! ~lol~
Then it was pile the kids into both cars.. staying in touch by "radio contact"- Read cell phones & bluetooths :P
Take them to the Skytrain..( ummmm lets see .. the closest thing we have to a subway..oh..nevermind mostly like the Monorail at Disneyland THAT you should all understand! )

Anywho.. lots of fun getting all 10 of us on there & down to Vancouver.. we live out in an almost rural suburban area.. So for some of these 12 & 13 yr olds ... this was their first time going on this thing... and it showed!! :P
Gods we are sheltered & naive! ~lol~

We then went down to where they were having something called PLAYDOME - basically take a carnival rides & all & put it inside...This Is B.C ya know!- they figure Spring break will be raining & they'll make $$
So the kids got to run free , do what they like, ride all the rides as many times as they like.. Lots of fun for them .. & all inside so peace of mind for me. :)
SO count that as a sucess...Then there have been a few other things in our world that have kept us busy & not necessarily in a good way.. but that isn't really something for here..


Now for those of you paying attention.. NO- in all that I've talked about - there has been NO mention of Food or Fitness or Fun & rah rah rah!.. .. & there lies the crux..
Somewhere along the line in trying to get back into working out- I managed to pinch or aggravate my Sciatic nerve pretty seriously-probably due to my mucked up posture & alignment with the foot & limping ..or hell I don't know why!
But it is only now starting to ease up after many trips to the Chiro -which I think I Undo every time I go to work.. Our ward is really incredibly physically heavy right now..*sigh*
so needless to say .. I've not been in a very fun headspace...Again.. & I've not been able to focus on doing fitness related stuff...Again.. & it was just depressing the heck out of me "watching" you all be SO into it all .. So Again-I hid.. Sorry .. I still love you .. but it was making me sadder & more frustrated with myself to try to come visit & say hi.
But I am here ..I hope you are all well & I will come say hi soon - Promise!
