Simple Woman's Daybook

Outside my window...
we have a "bird bully".  There is a red cardinal that seems to be scaring all the other birds away from the birdhouse.  What a meanie.  It must be an Arizona thing.  BTW, good luck on Feb. 1st Arizona fam-damn-ly.  We'll be wearing our Pittsburgh jerseys.

I am thinking...
I shouldn't taunt my family.  What goes around, comes around.  

I am thankful...
that the kids are finally back in school.  I hope we don't have to make up school days during spring break.  Not gonna happen.

From the Kitchen...
there is food within my budget.  The New Year's Resolution is going good in that department.

I am wearing...
my favorite Gap jeans.  I couldn't find them for a few days.  They were in the dryer waiting patiently for me.  See what Ice/Snow days do to me.  Messes with my "mommy mojo".  The kids didn't even have pants to wear today.  Oh well, it's supposed to get up to 40 degrees. Warm enough for naked legs.

I am creating...
excuses for why I'm not exercising today.  It'll be a whole day process.

I am reading...
'Eat This, Not That', by David Zinczenko.  It tells you the calories and fat grams of all of our favorite restaurants.  Needless to say,  I will never, ever be eating out again (until later tonight). Ex:  Chili's Awesome Blossom.  2710 calories, 203 g fat, 6360 mg sodium. And then you die.

I am hoping...
that a friend is doing okay with her glucose screening.  It wouldn't be so bad if they offered it in a Mt. Dew flavor.  It's about the same thing anyways, right.

I am hearing...
Slacker Radio.  It's like XM satellite radio on my iTouch.  
Slacker + iTouch + Bose speaker= Awesome - 2710 calories.

One of my favorite things...
"smell pretty" lotion.  My hands are so dry in the winter.

A few plans for the rest of the week...
celebrating life.  Two birthday parties for the kids.  They are just so excited that they are not on Sunday so they can actually go.

A picture thought I am sharing...
Performing "Psycho Eyes", a family original.
