How Lal Got Her Groove Back....




My scrappy groove that is :D I managed to do two pages late in the day today and finished the second one up a while ago. Both were lifts from someone named muffyvan on 2 Peas. I love her stuff...I have her bookmarked as one of my favorite artists. She has a style that I like to call "everything but the kitchen sink" LOL I just made that up...but because she can put all sorts of different "things", brands, colors, ect and it just "goes" and looks awesome. There are several people who have this style that I just LOVE. My dear friend Gina for instance whose blog I have linked in my sidebar :D See how I did that Gina...I just gave you a "plug"...is that what it's called? It sounds weird...lol


Anyway, umm...not much else going on here...still doing the bike...every day for 35 minutes which always comes out to 10 miles or a tiny bit more. My ankle is hurting less and less and I'm wondering if my theory of using it more/hurting less wasn't so off base. Let's keep our fingers crossed. I am definitely feeling a difference in my body and seeing some changes in my mid section. I hate that I got so off track because I had gotten so far and I was really loving running and now, who knows if I'll ever run again!! :( Oh rue the day I slipped and fell...LMBO...but I'm back on track and hopefully it will only get better :)


Plans for the weekend...tomorrow Miguel has another one of his "reunions" with his school friends. I think they are trying to make it like a monthly thing. This time it's going to be at Chacho's. I don't really want to go...I would rather stay home and spend time with the kids as a family because we never really get to, but Miguel said we'd only go for "a little while" and then we could go do our grocery shopping afterwards so we can get that out of the way and have less "errands" to run on Saturday. We want to take the kids to see "Monsters vs Aliens". It looks funny. I bet it will be good and the kids will love it. I think it's in 3D too which is always a bonus. Ugh, but they charge you so much for those dumb glasses. I think that if you already have them from previous 3D movies, that they should charge you less. Think about it....it would cut down on waste because you know alot of people don't recycle them. You bring them home and then you have like TWENTY pairs of 3D glasses that are good for nothing. Besides, if I paid like $4 or $5 extra dollars for them...I'm not giving them back to you, I'm KEEPING them...lol We also need to..well, I want to..run by Wal Mart to pick up a few things for the house. I can't remember if I mentioned on my blog that I gave up scrapbook shopping for Lent...I'm pretty sure I did. Anyway, so there has been NO scrapbook shopping for like four weeks now I think. It hasn't been too hard. Other than last weekend when Chon and I went to M's and I found an AWESOME MAMBI paper pad that I just LOOOVED and wanted SOOO badly!!! And in my head, I kept trying to think of ways around my Lent promise so that I could get it and then I felt bad for doing that because it is such a small sacrifice...nothing really..compared to what Jesus sacrificed for me. So I put it back. I only have two weeks to go and I know it will still be there later.


What else? I think that's about it. It's getting late and I'm still not used to this getting up at 6:30 a.m. thing yet...it's kicking my butt! So I should go...more later :)
