Mom and Dad's house, a hippie den?


Oh Monday... it was a rocky one... partially because I wish I was on vacay with 80% of everyone else, partially because I slept bad last night... As i left work, picked up niece-y from her bf's house, yelled at her about respecting my time, planning ahead and being responsible, I had pretty much written off the gym for the night. And then, dad called me to invite me over for dinner, as my mom had made Arroz con Pollo. I quickly agreed - nothing is better than having someone make dinner for you after work, especially when that someone is M-O-M! As i walked in the door, i was showered with puppy love, and then dad handed me a glass of wine, and i sat down to eat. And as i ate and partook in gavelling with my mom, i smelled the distinct odor of incense and noticed the mellow music. and i thought... who are these people? is this what retirement looks like - a day spa meditation center? and then i felt all of my anxiety, stress, annoyance, and dissatisfaction from today drain from me... and i suddenly felt the energy i needed to get to the gym and pound it out. THANKS MOM AND DAD... tonight was on you!!

Here's my update from this morning's weigh-in... try to ignore my sad pedicure appearance and focus on my total weightloss of 7 pounds... WOO-HOO... next week i'm hoping i'll be out of the 190's!!
