time to get serious

Ok so i know I am not feeling my best now but it is time to get serious because in sept i am going to go to the michael bolton concert that is coming to san diego that i have been waiting to go to since i was like 18 when i had tickets but he cancelled.  He hasn't been back to san diego that i have been aware of and when he has gotten close enough so we could drive we have never had the money or people to watch the kids.  BUT this time IT WILL HAPPEN.  I am going to go.  So here is what needs to happen. I need to start saving money for it because i really want really good tickets.  I want to have a nice dinner before it as well. I want to have a great night so i need to save a good amount so when the time comes it will be no big deal.  The other thing is i need to make sure i am "smaller" because I want to make sure I am comfy in the seats that they have.  there is nothing worse then going to a place and you find that you are squeazing into seats or the seat is uncomfortable because your ass is to big.  The good thing is that my husband is on board too.  He said the 15th would be the day he would start really exercising again and watching what he eats.  He even shaved his head so he could be a "new"man. I am hoping this is the last time that we have "start" again.  This weekend i realized how important it is to me that I lose the weight.  I was having some chest pain due to my lungs not feeling good but i kept thinking what if it was more than that.  It is a real possibility that being my size i could have a heart problem.  The good thing is that my cholesteral is actually really good and i don't have high blood pressure or any other problems except sleep apnea which is bad but i could be in worse shape at my size.  Anyways i got to run i got to get ready for work and for my mother-n-law to come over to watch the kids.  Thank goodness she doesn't have to work today because we can't afford to take the day off.  ta ta for now.

not so good

i haven't been doing my songs lately because i haven't been feeling the best. really tired and sore.  I am hoping to have a relaxing weekend so i can reboot myself. i did fill my fridge with some good food last night which is a start.  i got spinich, mini bell peppers(they tast really good when you roast them), mushrooms, grape tomatoes, asparagus, wheat pasta, brown rice, just to name a few.  I love Costco for getting produce.  I go to the regular store and look at a package of grape tomatoes and see that it is way small and would pay like $3 for them but at costco for $5 i can get like 4x the amount.  Will we eat all of them??? YES! my family loves them.  And spinich at costco for a HUGE bag is less the $4 but at the store a small bag is like $4.  Will we eat all of it?  Most of it yes so even if we didn't eat it all we are still saving money.  Oh a good way to cook spinich is to put a little olive oil and garlic in a saute pan and then add the spinich add some sea salt and talk about yummie.  Yesterday I was proud of myself because i was out and about after dropping the kids off and  i was hungry so i was trying to decide what to get...i could go to McDonalds because they now have my favorite sausage biscuit on the dollar menu..i could go to starbucks and get a frap and scone...BUT i went to subway and bought a foot long and had them wrap  both sides so i ate one for breakfast and one for lunch.  So for $5 i had breakfast and lunch.  I put some nice veggies on the sandwhich so i think it was a better choice.

2 and a half

only 2 and a half songs today i don't have much time and am a little sore from yesterday.  i really worked myself during those 3 songs then i was doing a lot of leg stuff during the day.  i got to run oh the songs i did today were Soul Provider by my favorite Michael Bolton.  To that song i did slow dance stuff but I could really feel it...maybe because i am sore :) then Push It By Salt and Pepper came on and I couldn't resist that.  The last half of song was Missy Elliot Get your freak on.  I'm out.

3 songs again

So i started with Wild Thing by Tone Loc(may have spelled that wrong)  then went to Humpty Dance by Digital Underground and then finished with a chair dance of Play that Funky Music by Wild Cherry I think that is the band.  Yesterday I was able to do a lot of leg stuff during my work day. i will try to do more today.  I am going to take my walking shoes and see if I can take a walk on my lunch break but I am not sure if I will be able to but i will try...Babysteps.I think it will really depend on if i can remember to take my shoes :).

Miranda Lambert

I have to admit when Miranda Lambert came out i didn't like her music but after carefully listening to her music I really like it.  I feel in love with Gun Powder and Lead when I really listened to the lyrics.  Her new song White Liar i love it.  I think one reason why i didn't like her that much was because we saw her open for Tobey Keith and I didn't think her performance was that great it sounded like she was yelling to much and I couldn't understand the lyrics but I think that was because she was new but I have since seen her perform on live shows and have to change my opinion about her.
