Then came the rain.
Today after work - I ran with Morgan and Zach. Well, mostly Morgan, because Zach left us in his dust again. Anyway, as we were running - a storm was a brewin’ in the distance! We ran 1.7 miles down into the Strip, before we both agreed it was too hot and wanted to turn around and run back. About 1.3 miles later…. BAM! The Apocalypse. The huge dark cloud that was bringing a WALL of...

Now. This is a really hard post to write. Because, well, who am I to judge? But my parents. They eat horribly. All the time. Day in and day out. They go on walks together sometimes - which is great. Except every single time they go walking, they instantly go out for ice cream after. Or Arbys. They are buffet people. They like things in quanity. The more - the better! And they have the standard...
Bachelorette Night
Afternoon tea at my favorite bed & breakfast.
Pedis.
Loooong dinner/drink at a wine place.
A nice relaxing bachelorette evening. Expensive (!!!) but nice.
AND I only drank HALF a glass of red sangria. And indulged in cheeses of all shapes & sizes. But only HALF a glass people!
And this morning? Still exact same weight. To the OUNCE. 201.7!!!
So I obviously didn’t over do...
There’s nothing like deep breaths after laughing that hard. Nothing in the world...

BRB GONNA GO DIE NOW.
Irrationally Angry.
So last night, after the amazing Gala at work, I got home around 12:30 AM. After seeing that my sister posted on FB how exhausted she was, I offered to sleep on the couch and watch Evan for awhile, while she slept in the guest room. I ended up watching him until 3 AM. Which was totally okay and worth it and I love him to pieces even when he’s pooping at 2:15 AM and wanting fed at the exact...
All is well.
Baby Evan is sound asleep in my arms.
Thanks for your thoughts & concerns & prayers. More tomorrow.
Evan was home for less than 4 hours...
And then we had to take him to Children’s Hospital.
He was throwing up MOUTHFULS of blood.
In the waiting room now with my parents. I had to go get my sister’s bf at work and my parents drove her & Evan down to Children’s. We met up with them here.
Hopefully it’s nothing serious… But this definitely put a dark cloud over what was supposed to be (was...
Week Weigh In!
Starting Weight: 211.9
Last Week: 205.8
Today: 204.4
-1.4 lbs
Not enough to make weight for Game On this week, but it’s because of my lady friend being due tomorrow & this never ending bloated feeling happening today. But I am happy & proud of that 1.4 because I worked really hard for it every day this week.
Tonight is my last night of NOT being an aunt.
My sister is being induced soon!
Tomorrow she becomes a mom and I BECOME AN AUNT.
Now some sleep before a looooong & exciting day tomorrow. Dr says my sister is in for a long, long labor.
Updates!
1) Today, my nephew is due. So where is he? 2) I elliptical-ed before I Hip Hopped. BOOM 925 calories burned! 3) That will make up for at least SOME of the three baskets of bread Matt & I ate yesterday. Right? Right. Maybe… God I looove bread. 4) Really great reviews for the last show of the season. Hope it sells! 5) FINALLY found purple shoes (that sparkle!) to wear to the wedding...
Should I be pleased to see...
That you hold onto pieces of me?
“Everything happens for a reason.”
It feels like we just talked about this possibility yesterday. Then someone hit the fast forward button.
And now here we are.
Right where we knew we’d end up.

I know I'm only 27.
But it is no picnic managing kids who are just out of college. They are IMPOSSIBLE sometimes.
I also can’t believe I just said that.
