A Little Scrappy Goodness and Week 2 Totals



So last Friday night I went scrapping. It was one of those days where I positively HAD to get out because my climber was making me positively insane. It was one of those days where Tracey took one look at me when he walked in the door and knew that it was a good thing that I was leaving. :0)

I dare say it was the most unproductive night of scrapbooking EVER, but it sure was a much needed break and down right fun. Thanks Tracey for always being so willing and supportive of watching the kids so that I can have a break.

I didn't do much at all. I've been wanting to make a little mini album for one of my buddies that works at WRMK whose wife just had their 4th kiddo. They are tough and always wai† to find out what they are having until the baby is born, so I couldn't exactly get a jump start on the album. I'm happy they had a girl, because I ADORE the Nonsense line from WRMK and was dying to use it.




Unfortunately I suffer greatly from ADD I do believe, so I only got the cover and a few pages for the inside done.

I then spent about an hour making these two birthday cards with some Karen Foster goodies that I've been meaning to work with for wayyyyyyyyy too long.



So here's my "Laying it on the line" week two totals.

Eat out: THREE TIMES - Ugh. But honestly that is SO much better than normal. Once with Tracey, once with Michelle and once with my dad. (Into the pot $2)
Dinner at home: Every night baby! I'm so proud of me!
Exercise: 3 hours and 20 min. Dang it. I missed out on my goal of 4 hours by 40 lousy minutes. After running 5.8 miles around Stansbury Park on Saturday afternoon, I was exhausted, and by the time I thought about going to the gym on Sat. night to lift weights, I figured that paying a buck was a good deal to be able to relax. I'm still pretty dang proud of myself. I ran almost 13 miles last week also did a Billy Blanks workout. (Into the pot $1)

Now here's the deal with this week. Because we are going on vacation, obviously we are going to have to eat out. So for this week there will have to be eating out exception during our vacation. I am going to do my absolute best to get my exercise in this week and will make dinner while we are still home.

Total pot: $4 / 4 scrappy items
Have a great day everyone!
