Today

Today.........
It's 8:25 and the kids are already asleep! no naps makes for a magically wonderful early bedtime, love naps,but, sometimes love early bed time too, it's a trade off!

Started off the morning with a personal training session at the gym,which was complimentary, so I thought I would give it a whirl. Thought I was in good shape (I can run for some long distances) umm, guess again, not so much, I was a little embarresed by how quickly I was tired out and how running and cardio dosen't make you strong. Then I did some leg lifts in which he touched my leg to show my where they should be, ooopppsss, hadn't shaved my legs in 3 days and I have dark hair,so I'm sure he was grossed out. Then,I got called to the child care to take Pres potty, he rolls his eyes! I'm not scoring points! Then when we are done, he tries to sign me up , tells me I need to get my priorites straight and see if my health is that important, ummm,it is,but I can't afford $330 /month!
I leave feeling like a I had a good workout , but, in his eyes, I'm a hairy, weak, cheap, lazy, mom, who dosen't have her priorities straight.

Then off to the mall with Jess, we hit up old navy and I scored! Kids Easter outfits... check. 4 shirts for $13... check. free perfume at Victorias Secret...check... free 10 day sample powder at bare minerals w/ brush... check= good day at the mall!

Then home, finally got a shower, blow dry my hair, (now I know why in movies girls can't go out sometimes, cuz they are washing their hair, I feel like it is such a chore and I have to schedule it).Get all excited to make my Amish friendship bread that I had been painstackingly massageing for ten days. Pour it in to my bread pan,put it in the oven. 50 min later...smelling the delicious cinnamon goodness, I realized I forgot to add one whole cup of oil!!!!!! Are you kidding me, my hard work and anticipation, ruined! Now I have a brick! At least I can keep one of my starter doughs and try again!

There is always tomorrow!

I say with your newly gained strength from your work out you go beat the trainer up! I hate people that don't respect motherhood.

Glad you had s good day at the mall.

Glad you have another Amish starter.

Love you.

How do you get all this free stuff???

Reading your story, my head is picturing your personal trainer to be really ugly and Fabio like, sounds like a jerk to me!

Lindsay Jones said...

I like this post, I like you, I like imagining him as Fabio! I want to see the Easter outfits you got. Love you!

First off, when did 8:25 become an early bedtime? I am thinking 7:30!!! :)

Second, I believe we can be our own personal trainer and find out that our bodies can do more then we think!

and third, I got the kids easter outfits at Childrens place and they are so stinkin cute! I can't wait to see yours!

So Mandy I was thinking that maybe you could trade MR, Trainer for a day as an AWESOME~ MOM, WIFE, FRIEND, DAUGHTER etc and see how well he sizes up. Maybe then he can talk about priorities!! We all could be as fit as these "meat heads" if thats all we did all day long. You can run circles around him when it comes to stuff that really matters... like scoring at the mall. You my dear are well rounded and AMAZINGLY AWESOME!!!

You are so cute Mandi! Isn't it true that days are full of good AND frustrating times? Just focus on the good and realize that your priorities are right where they should be:).

All I can say is, I think you're great - friendship bread failure or not!
