38 of 365 Stuck

This is how I feel right now when it comes to work...

I really wish I enjoyed my job more. One of these days I'll figure out what I want to be when I grow up.

This is where I spend about 7 hours a week...

This is where I spend most of my paycheck...

But it's all worth it for this...

36 of 365 If Gymnastics Were Easy They'd Call It Football

My youngest daughter competed in her first qualifying gymnastics competition. Her scores were the following: Vault-9.0 Bars-8.80 Beam 8.70 Floor-9.40. Her team placed 4th in the overall competition and have their own banner hanging up in the gym now. She told me her proudest moment yesterday was when her coach fist bumped her after the floor routine. It was amazing to see the smile on my daughter's face when she realized totally nailed the routine. I didn't get many pictures because I worked the event and no flash photography can be done while the gymnasts compete.

Here she is eating her healthy breakfast:

Here she is with all of her ribbons and medal.

33 of 365 No Pop Tarts or Cereal Today

For some strange reason I got the cooking bug today. I made this for brunch

Then I threw in a slab of ribs in the crock pot and cooked all day. They fell of the bone and everyone LOVED them.

And last but not least, we sat at the table as a FAMILY and ate dinner. This is a very rare occassion.

I told Mr. Kindle I needed to take a break from our relationship. I did sneak away for a little "nooner" and then quickly started cleaning the house. So the house is clean, the kids are fed, and all is calm in our house. I may go ahead and light a candle and call up Mr. Kindle to see if he's up for some action tonight...LOL

32 of 365 I'm Having An Affair

...with my Kindle

It's bad...and someone must stop me. Today was an ice day in Texas. I did some work and answered a few emails. When I started reading at 3:30 this afternoon, I was only 11% through this book. I'm now 64% finished with no end in sight.

I did manage to cook dinner, but no house cleaning got done. My kids pretty much took care of themselves. My husband seems to have quit his affair with his iPad and here I am doing the same thing!!! It's disgraceful I tell you.

Oh well...it's 9 degrees here and my bed and Kindle are calling again. I must succumb to my love.
