Frustrated...

Operation Get in Shape

I have been so busy the last few weeks....which means that I've had to sacrifice my time in the gym!  :(  No BUENO!!!!  With the hubs being on night shift, office hours moved to 7-6pm for me, summer camp planning and prep, softball practice/games, t-ball practice/games, and family time my gym time has gone almost to 0!  I've worked out 4 times in the last 14 days....when normally I hit the gym 12 out of 14 days.  I've got to get back on track!!!  The sad thing is that I won't be able to do that until after camp....so it will be July before I settle into a routine....let's go!  I can't wait! 

This, That and the Other

Today we drove to the hubby's home town for a funeral....it was good to see everyone and made us all think about saying the things you need to say and not waiting until it is too late.  I really love spending time with family and wish that we had more time to gather and enjoy each others company.  Upon parting we vowed to be better and are looking at our schedules to arrange a weekend together....I hope that we get it done!  I miss them all. 

I am also looking forward to spending a little time with a few special ladies at a NKOTB/BSB concert in July....it's not that I'm a crazed fan, but it has become something that I can do with one of my best girl friends (she is CRAZY for NKOTB) and make some great memories!  I am excited that I am going to get to experience with Steph and another great friend (Amber)...we are going to have a BLAST!  I <3 girl time....it doesn't matter what we are doing...I just love spending time with friends that I love and cherish.

Hair

One other thing before I sign off for bed:  Sometimes it is hard to be a "brown" girl...lol!  I have the thickest hair in the world and I am always trying to find something to do with it during the summer.  I know some of you are probably thinking "my hair is difficult and I'm not brown" and to you I would say that my hair is WORK.  I can't just go swimming and then let it dry on it's own....getting my hair wet is not the problem...it is what happens after that makes me crazy.  Some of the luckiest people in the world (I'm just talking hair) are those who can let their hair just air dry after  getting wet.  I spend at least two hours on my hair...two hours of shampooing, conditioning, oiling/moisturizing my scalp, flat ironing and wrapping my hair....and I hate it!  So this summer I am trying something new...something that I never thought I would do....I'm getting a little sew in job!  I am off to the hair dresser in the morning....if I like it I will post a picture!  Cross your fingers and toes and pray that it works out for me!  Hahahaha!  I'm thinking that it will make life much easier for me...we shall see! 

OK...I'm off to find my bed...it's been a long day and I am ready to get a little sleep. 

Until tomorrow...or the next time that I post!  ;)

I'm excited about your hair - I hope you love it! I want to see pictures!

While I can't relate (but totally sympathize) to the hair issues I did laugh out loud at your "brown girl" comment because Morgan has told me repeatedly "Mommy, you're brown." She doesn't understand or care about labels, she just knows Mommy is a little bit darker than she is...

Super pumped about NKOTB - it will be a great time! So glad you guys invited me! Love girl time!
