Tuesday already? Where the heck did Monday go?

Wow...the past four days flew by...the weekend....Monday...and now...it's Tuesday....I feel like my life is slipping by....one day tends to melt into the next....

How was the weekend? Mine was so busy.....Friday night, I took Max and his friend Spencer, Aaron and his friend Landon to Dairy Queen and then to play Lazer Tag...they had a great time....and begged to play "just one more game"...but, at $5 a game, for a 10 minute game, I had to firmly say no...and herd them all home to play Xbox....Spencer and Max ended up having an argument within 15 minutes of being at my house, Spencer then asked to be taken home. So, I had to drive him home, then come back and Landon wanted to spend the night with Aaron, so I had to load them up, drive to Landon's so he could get permission from his Mom...once home, I relaxed with a nice glass of wine, while the boys played happily and contentedly in their room.

We all stayed up rather late, but I was up and at em' at 9 a.m. Saturday morning....we all showered, dressed and went to Bob Evan's for a late breakfast....I love Bob Evan's..they have such great prices and they are willing to make any adjustments to your order to accomodate your dietary needs.

I had the Veggie Omelet (made with egg whites) and a side of fresh fruit with one piece of dry wheat toast..it was yummy!



Afterwards, hubby took me across to the street to the gym and dropped me off so I could get another work out in....while he ran Landon home to his parents, then proceeded to take the boys and get our car detailed/cleaned....



Here I am before the workout sesh...(I can not take a picture of myself in a flattering manner to save my ever loving life!)...





I had a tremendous work out week last week...I worked out (including Saturday) 5 days in a row, logged 21 miles running and lifted three times...

After my gym workout, (2 hrs later)...I should have taken an after picture...but, I looked like a sweaty pig...hubby picked me up, we went home, I showered and dressed and we headed to Terre Haute for my 16 year olds Hardcourt Homecoming....the drive takes two hours and hubby could not stay awake, so I had to take over with the driving....Max and Aaron argued and fought/picked on one another the entire way.
We finally arrived at the high school, met my 19 year old at the ticket window (so I could buy his ticket) and we went into the gymnasium....it was packed....my son's school, The Patriots were playing against Notre Dames Irish Catholic High School ( I think)...and they ended up winning 61-62 after going into overtime....it was tough sitting there through the entire game, especially trying to keep Max entertained...he got rather bored pretty quickly. He wanted me to take his picture..

Then..he wanted to take pictures..
Another not so flattering picture of moi....(OMG...my face/head look freaking huge...I look like freakishly old..wth??? Reminder: Never, ever, ever let 7 year old take picture of yourself again!) :P


Then he took a picture of his really big brother Tim...you can see the ex with his fancy smancy camera behind Tim and Aaron off to the side..




My son Justin was part of the homecoming court...he was escorting his former girlfriend Shelby..yes, I said former...they broke up a day or two before homecoming...he said she was too clingy or psycho...or something like that.....I thought she was a sweet girl....oh, well..young love..who can ever figure that out?
Before and during the game, we were able to take some pictures...

Here is my handsome young man...with "former" girlfriend..at least until next week, when I am sure they will get back together...



Here they are being introduced to the crowd, as part of the court...

(I could not get my zoom to work on my camera...at all...I so need a new/better camera...you probably can't see a thing from the above photo..but, I tried...his Dad got way better pictures with his $1000 Nikon..I am sure.)

At Half time...his Dad and I were able to get better pictures of him and us together...




I have one of Tim and Justin together..but for some reason, blogger will not let me post it! AARrrrggghhhh...so frustrating. His Dad's pictures he took turned out so much better...once they get them up on Facebook, I will go in and take them...lol...

After the game, hubby and I took all four boys to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner...we did not get home to Lafayette until 1:30 a.m...I did not get into bed until 3:30 a.m....

Sunday, I took the day off from the gym...we were all so tired..but, I did manage to get the bed linens on everyone's bed changed and the boy's dusted, hubby vacummed..we showered/dressed and went back to town with the intentions of going grocery shopping after we had some lunch...But, it was 2:30 pm at that point, we decided on Indian Food, but the Restaurant closed at 3 p.m..on a Sunday...who does that? So, we ended up at the Olive Garden...yum...it was very good, but after we were done eating, it was cold/raining outside...we all just wanted to go home...hubby laid down, I fell asleep on the couch for a brief period...actually I didn't budge until almost 8 pm Sunday night...I was exhausted....

All in all, it was a good weekend, just very busy...

This week is shaping up pretty good too!
I went to the gym at lunch time yesterday, ran 3.5 miles...my stats were:

Mile 1 9 min 35 seconds...
Mile 2 9 min 5 seconds....
Mile 3 9 min 40 seconds...
Mile .5 4 min 40 seconds...

Pretty darn good....

I am going to the gym after work tonight...I have a 4.5 miler planned with upper body/ab strength training...

My eats have been pretty good, even with all the eating out we have been doing lately. I did make chili for supper last night...I had one bowl..it was very filling...and perfect for a cold winters night.

The rest of my week is pretty crazy/busy. Between work and gym time, the weekend will be here before I know it. I plan to run on my lunch break tomorrow, a full workout again Thursday night, a quick run Friday after work....helping kids with homework, trying to squeeze in some time for hubby and fitting in a nail appointment and a spray tan before Friday night.
Whew!!! I need a vacation!!!

Have a great week everyone!
