P.W- 208.9
P.W- 206.9

P.W- ??

C-W. 209.0
G.W- 165

Boo a gain.. However, Ill take it because I have done nothing this week.. Or last for that matter.. I did eat alright this week though.. Ill also take it because on Monday, after our weekend away it said 212... 

A friend suggested that I just make a schedule to workout 3 times a week and I think I am going to give this a try instead of trying to push myself to working out 6 days a week.. I really wish I had the motivation, energy and determination I did the first week of April, but its seriously lacking right now..

So for now, Im going to only work out 3 days a week, unless the moment arises that I feel like doing an extra day. Im going to try and push my self hard on those 3 days, dripping sweat and make it count.. I want to feel the burn!! 

Oh and I've also fell off the squat challenge wagon.. Booo.. So Ill be getting back on that as well.. I mean, after all, it has great benefits! 

-----

Other news, I cannot believe its already mid-April. What the heck!? Where has the time gone already.. My mom is coming to stay with us next week (Mon-Thurs) and my sister-in-law is having her baby shower on the 28th.. Oh crap! I just realized how much stuff is coming up and so quickly.. Logan's Uncle is getting married on the 26th and the reception is on the 27th... Then the baby shower.. And Mom and I will probably go to Prescott for lunch with Janessa on the 24th and then again on the 25th for my mom's doctor appointment.. Wowza! So much going down next weekend.. 

Well hell, guess that means I wont really have the time to workout.. Guess my 3 days are going to be Saturday-Monday this week. Oh well!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!! Be safe :)

All Aboard!

As I mentioned in my last post (here) Logan and I were going to go on a train ride, dinner and a western show..  Well here is a recap from the weekend of what I can remember and the PG version of course ;)

Saturday we got up and got everyone dressed and dropped the kids off with Nana S. Then Logan and I headed to Prescott to stop and have breakfast. We stopped at St. Michaels, which is an OLD place in downtown Prescott (Whiskey Row for those who know the area) I was craving eggs but also wanted French toast (the inner fatty was hungry) and no meals came with both. So I had to get to different meals.. HAD TO! Got eggs, ham, fruit and toast with one meal and french toast with the other. It was all yummy and I wasnt actually full either. Then we were on our way to Cottonwood. We took the road that goes through Jarome. A neat little (OLD) town that is built on the side of the mountain. We didnt stop this time but have been before. We got to Cottonwood little earlier then we thought we would so we went and got our hotel room (Super 8).. I fixed my hair a little better and grabbed some pants for later, if I got cold. Then we were off to the train... We got there to early as well and had like an hour to kill.. Boring! lol Thats ok though. 

Once we got on, we picked out seats. On the table was a little bowl of baked chips and bottles of water. We also got a free "glass" of champagne  to start the ride out ride. They also had other snack foods for us to eat. We got our drink on by getting Prickly Pear Margarita and Blue Margarita (Pink for Logan and Blue for me). Mine was very good. Oh and Logan was drinking beer too. On the train they have cars that are open top/side so you can go outside and enjoy the views.. We spent most of our time out there. The train goes from Clarksdale to Perkinsville and back.. Its a total of 4 hours long. Wowza!! It was fun though. I had 5 margaritas. They were pretty strong. The girl making them wasnt measuring out the booze and the ride was bumpy! lol

After the train ride was over, we headed to the Blazin M Ranch where dinner and the western show was to be. When we got inside we got a drink.. I got another margarita, then we road on their little tractor train. After that..Things all got kinda a fuzzy (insert country song here --->All Kinda Fuzzy) I remember we went to do one of those shooting games where you aim at a target and shoot with rubber bullets.. Thats pretty much all I remember, however I was a damn good shot! lol Almost got a bullseye even! I remember walking around laughing my ass off about who knows what. Just having a good time.. I vaguely remember sitting down in the dinner hall and then being outside, where I may or may not have gotten sick.. The next thing I remember was being back at the hotel.... Apparently, we left because I got the Rita flu (Ha!) I woke up some time around 1 am thinking it would be much later.. From then on I woke up about every hour thinking how horrible the bed was that we were sleeping on.. We both work up around 4:50 am, laid there for an hour because neither of us could sleep, but eventually and thankfully went back to sleep until like 7. We got up and drove around Cottomwood looking for a place to eat. Surprisingly we both felt pretty good, no bad hang overs. 

After we ate, since it was still so early and we were still kid free, we decided to go to Sedona.. Some place I hadnt been to before. Its such a pretty palce and cannot wait to go again someday! We drove up to Slide Rock Park where the water runs over these rocks and they are so slippery from the algae growing over the rocks. The water was about 53 degrees according to the park ranger. Brrr!! We hiked a ways up the canyon and then back and got to watch a girl go down the slide. It looks like a lot of fun but something Id rather do in July or August. Apparently the water is always cold because its off a natural spring. We headed back into Sedona to walk around the shops. We smelt some good food so we followed our noses to this restaurant (sorry dont remember the name) and got burgers. Yummy burgers! Then we walked around a bit more, stopped for Cold stone ice cream, which neither of us actually had room for but ate anyways. Then it was time to go home.  

Overall, from what I remember, we had a great time. They gave us extended tickets for the Blazin M ranch since I was sick. So someday we will get to go back for the dinner and show.

Fabulous Fittness Fiday

 Well, I forgot to weigh in the morning.. Truth be told, it wasnt on my mind when I woke up. However, I dont need to weigh in to know I bombed this last week. Booo! How can I be so motivated one week, but my ass and work hard and then the next week be completely the opposite? Makes me made :( and say. I pretty much didnt do any workouts this last week sept maybe one day.. I didnt eat horrible but didnt eat great either.. I have also been pretty tired again lately.. Why do I always feel so freaking tired!! I wounder if the Hydroxycut was really giving me the energy to push though last week... Oh well if it did, wont be taking it anymore.. I did buy some Coffee Bean Extract Pills.. I've heard mixed reviews on these, you know "yes they work!" and "No they dont!" Again, like the Hydroxycut, Im not taking it as a instant weight loss fix, I am taking it as an aid to my weight loss.. They provide energy, curb appetite and it says right on the box, doesnt cause jitters.. Which is why I picked it up.. However, I havent been taking it yet.. Directions say to take first pill in the morning 30 minutes before your first meal... Well I usually lay in bed till Im ready to get up and eat.. LOL I know, Lay-z-ee! 

 In other news.... I am trying to figure out how to paint and decorate the house.. Yes, Dear, you heard me right, I said paint... Our house is already painted this nice creamy tan color and I like it but I want to add to it.. I have a great idea in my head but I cant find anything like it on line.. I want to go buy sample colors and stuff and do a piece of wood to test my idea and see how I like it.. More details on that later..

Today I got to go to town all by my self.. No kiddos at all!!! Wow!!! I had to go get my Depo shot, whooo... Then I went to Michaels and Hobby Lobby.. I got some scrapbook necessities and roamed around H.L. dreaming of what I wish my house looked like, snapping pictures left and right with my phone and trying not to drool on things along the way.. 

 This weekend, Logan and I get to get away, kid free (yes, again!) We got a gift certificate to ride a train near by.. Its called the Verde Valley Rail Road and it takes you through the mountains, its really pretty. Back when Ellie was about 6 months old, we hicked like 9 miles of the track when we went camping near the train station.. Its really pretty up there.. We also got a gift certificate for a dinner and a western show. (Thanks to the in-laws for both certificates!) We are going to get a hotel and stay the night.. Should be a fun time.. 

Well, thats all I have to ramble about.. Time to do something. :) 

Have a great weekend!

Whats In Your Purse?

Today I am doing a link-up with Erin @ She's A Big Star. She wants to know, "Whats In Your Purse."

Be for warned, my purse is pretty boring! 

I just bought this purse almost 2 weeks ago. It is George brand from Walmart (oooo! I know, exciting!) I really thought it was cute and fun for the Spring/Summer. It also comes in Black and Tan and in different styles of bags.

This View is to show you it is a divided purse

 

The goods inside....

Left side is the Baby Stash, which currently consist only of 2 diapers and a pack of wipes. 

In the Middle is what is inside the dividing pocket of the purse. An Ed Hardy note pad, 2 packs of gum, 3 pens, lotion and yes a pocket knife (thats house I roll). 

The Right side of the purse holds my cheap Walmart wallet and my equally cheap Walmart sunglasses. As well as my keys and my phone when we are out and about. 

Wow, hope I didnt bore anyone to sleep with that huge ^ stash from my purse... When we go to town and I have Blaine with me, I will usually toss in his cup and an extra paci. I have a full diaper bag in the Saburban but got tired of packing it into stores. Oh and if its a shopping week, Ill have my grocery list tucked in there as well. 

The lotion, its such a front.. It makes it look like Im one of those cray-cray lotion users ((*coughJANESSAcough*)) But truthfully I bought it after getting my last tattoos and needed it for in the car.. Now that they are healed up, it is nice to have it on hand when I need it.. 

Maybe in a month, I do this post again to see how full my new purse gets over time. We shall see.

Now head on over to She's A Big Star and check out the others who linked up and heck, show us your purse too!!

Happy Saturday!

Fabulous Fitness Friday

O.M.G!

New Stats
S.W- 216
P.W-208
P.W- 207.3
P.W- 210+ (???)
 P.W- 208.9

C.W- 206.9
G.W- 165

Total- 9.1 lbs

Do you see that?! I lost 2 pounds! Two mother fluffin pounds!!! I am beyond excited!! So thrilled to see this number.

So how did I get here?? 

A lot of fluffin hard work!! Monday-Thursday I did C25K Week 3! (will be doing it today too)

Those days I also did the Biggest Loser At Home Challenge, alternating the Cardio and Strength every day.

P.S. The Cardio Phase 2 is killer! Its pretty much just different variations of squats. Ouch!

Also on top of that, I am in a challenge to do 10 squats a day. No problemo! Im doing that  x A LOT!

I also watched what I was eating.. Tried to eat and not over eat and drank TONS of water!!!

Time for a confession....... I was also taking Hydroxycut Max....Just for this week..But I've decided to stop taking it... I feel extremely exhausted but yet have energy at the same time, almost to the point of jittery even. I was just taking it for the extra energy boost and to curb my appetite...  Cant do it.. So now I am just taking a Complex-B vitamin for extra energy...

This week I plan to carry out the same routine I did this last week. I also will be trying to move on to Week 4 of the C25K program (Wish me luck!) 

April Goals

I havent talked about my goals yet for this month. Honestly, I am not going to set a "Onederland" goal or an outfit goal.. Ive done this for 3 months now and so far I have let me self down all 3 months.. 

The only goals I am making this month if to push my self to continue working out hard like I did this week. Push my self to eat good, not over eat and not to eat because Im bored..

Push my self to continue drinking as much water as I have been. (I'd say between 60-90 oz)

Just to push my self to continue doing great!

Because it feels great to wake up this morning and see such a big number change! I am READY to make those numbers drop! My legs might be killing me but it is so worth it! 

Who's with me on kicking April in the flowers?! Owning this month and making it ours?!! We got this! We can do it!!

Good Reader? BlogLovin? Apps? Computer?

 I have come to a big conclusion....I love having the Google Reader app on my phone so I can stop and read a blog any time I want and its there at 2 am when I cannot sleep (which happens often!). However, as we all know Google is doing away with GR (curse them 1000x)... The next new app is Bloglovin and as I posted before, the app does not work on my Droid phone... Boooo!  Although, I do really like using Bloglovin on line rather then looking through the blogs I follow on blogspot.com....

 Lately I've seen a lot of posts about how to make your blog better, more popular, bluh bluh bluh.. One  of the things is basically to get comments you have to comment on others blogs.. Now there are a couple I always comment on but there are a lot that Im like "Oh! I want to remember to comment on her blog!!" and I never remember because while having Google Reader on my phone and being able to read any time I want, its hard to comment from my phone. I have to open the blog into the browser and then if any of them have those little code things before you can post a comment, well its kinda hard to see on my phone.. So there for its hard to comment form my phone...

 I really want to become a much more involved blogger.. That doesnt mean Im going to start spending every waking moment on my blog or others blogs (I aint got time for that!), but I do want to be more consistent with posting and commenting.  So that brings me to my big conclusion.... I am going to delete Google Reader from my phone (*cry*). I will use Bloglovin on my computer and therefore be able to comment as soon as I read a blog that I enjoy or want to put my 2 cents in. 

Sounds like a great plan to me :) (Sorry for the bluh bluh bluh rambling that just fell out of my mind and onto my blog.....Deal with it :D )

Have a super Thursday!

Scrapbook Pages for March

Here are March's scrapbook pages! I am really pleased with what I was able to complete last month!

Wow! Thats 24 pages and 1 card! Thats awesome! On my first Scrapbook page post in February I mentioned doing a "100 in 2013" challenge in one of my scrapbook forums. Well, I am now sitting at 58 pages and its only March (and Ive already got at least 4 more pages done this month!)  It wont be long and Ill have hit my 100 pages and have last yr completed!! 

Keep on Scrapping ladies!

Spring Training: 5K Challenge Link Up

 Today, I am linking up with Katie J @ KTJ Weighing In for the Spring Training: 5K Challenge.. I linked up with her a few weeks ago but the last couple weeks I slacked :( Today was great though..

  I did the Couch 2 5 K on the Elliptical. Today was Week 3 Day 2 and I plowed through it making it over a mile by the end. It felt great!! I hope to be ready to try Week 4 again real soon. 

  I also did the Biggest Loser At Home Challenge DVD- Strength training. I had to modify one move (a squat into a back lunge) I just couldnt do both moves together, so I just did squats the whole time.. Ha! Thats a lot of squats. Oh and I did the modified versions of the plank moves.. I just can do the full plank moves, hurts my hands/wrists.. Before the end of the month, Ill be able to do it!! :)

  Hope you are/were able to get up and get moving today!
