Good Monday morning friends! Just going to do a huge shout-out to ALL of our walking/running friends! Between here and Instagram I see lots of our current and former WISH challenge members were out there MOVING in some marathons, half-marathons, and 5ks this weekend! Wowza!!
But of course, a SPECIAL congrats to our "hostess-with-the-mostess" Courtney on her race PR!!! WOWza!!
Sorry I haven't been on since Thursday. DD ended up in the ER Thursday night (after a trip to on-campus health services AND a trip to a local walk-in clinic). Won't go into details (not sure she's appreciate that), but she is feeling better and off to work today (albeit moving slowly). So after a quick trip to RI after my WW meeting Thursday night and nearly a full night in the ER with her (back on campus about 3 am), I ended up spending the weekend playing personal nurse.... but I was happy to do it! As a Mom nothing makes me happier than to be able to CARE for my kids! I would have stayed longer, but she was determined she would go to her internship today, so no sense in me hanging around.
Not sure if I mentioned it or not, but DS's dorm had a transformer blow Wednesday evening and they weren't allowing the kids back inside until it was repaired.... so he ended up coming home about 11 pm that night and bringing two friends so they had a place to sleep (I think the kids stuck on campus were in the cafeteria.... not a place I'd like to spend the night!). So today I am doing laundry.... sheets, blankets, etc from the beds I made up that night.... but fortunately the sun is shining so everything will go out on the clothesline (despite temps in the upper 30's).
Anyhow.... planning to post some MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY meals on Instagram today, if you are interested! (I'm "ww_wearemom22".) Hoping by inspiring OTHERS, that I can improve my own motivation and inspiration! Been feeling a little lack-luster in those areas lately.
So..... I'm on school vacation this week! I still have my 24/7 shifts plus my two WW meetings this week.... but SO MUCH TIME on my hands! Going to make a few more time consuming meals that I haven't taken the time to make lately (already looking forward to Wednesday's beef and broccoli!), and pick some "trouble spots" around the house to concentrate on. First up.... I need to take stock of my Fiesta ware collection. I keep buying (without a good place to display), but I've lost track of what I own and what I want to part with... so time to do an inventory (however, maybe this should wait until DH is out of the house.... I'm a little afraid of him seeing ALL of it!). I've got it in the kitchen (duh), dining room (mostly in storage), attic, and even a pile of plates in the car currently (recent purchase).
I think the washer has stopped spinning, to time to head to the clothesline!..............P
