Hello January 2008!

Hello blog readers!
I am here to say hi and keep up with my goal of posting more than twice a month and as you can see, it is already January 8th! I had a busy, but fun winter break. It always goes so fast and I always want more time but don't we all???

We went to the movies a few times. The Main Place mall has $1.75 movies all the time and they are $1.00 on Tuesdays. We saw Mr. Megorium's Wonder Emporium which I thought would be cute but it was a little slow and Sammie lost interest so we left about 45 minutes into it and just walked around the mall. On Sunday we went to see Alvin and the Chipmunks. That was a cute movie and Sammie really enjoyed it. I remember the chipmunks when I was a kid. It has been around for a long time! Not too much to report today.

I did get to the gym and took a mommy and me exercise class with Sammie. It was a lot of fun but they only have it once a month. They set up stations of jump ropes, balls, bean bags, and hula hoops and we rotated around every few minutes. In between rotations we would stop and do a dance, like the Macarena, the chicken dance, YMCA, etc. I would like to do that every month in addition to going on the treadmill a few times a week. Well, that's all for now, I'll be back again soon. I have to go to work the rest of the week. Boo hoo!

HI Illyse...I saw Alvin too. I liked Mr. McGorium and so did Dev-but she is older...I thought it was sad though....I have been trying to go on the treadmill ALL week. I have been sooooo busy. Ron is having a Poker Party downstairs as I type-for his bday. I don't play though...we had to do a lot of errands and cleaning-ran out of time for the treadmill. I think I am at my heaviest in about 2 years! I am so depressed about it. My clothes are barely fitting...gotting stop eating so much crap! I mostly eat healthy but it is the AMOUNT that I eat I believe...in Weight Watchers you have to cut your portions. I should go back to my meetings. Good luck on your exercise program. We need to scrap soon together-I miss everyone! Heather
