The Nerdy Mom

Some day I’ll get it together.

The Garage….

Our garage is scary. And what’s scarier is that you can only close it from inside the house so often we don’t know if its closed or open. It is so full of garbage and crap that you cannot even get to the middle of it to get the stroller or the kids bikes. Today is the day we clean it up. Now that its light outside for longer periods of time, we should be able to get it all organized and cleaned out today. I will load the van, and Sean will take all the garbage to a drop off center. I can’t wait. I mean, I know I said I was a naturally messy person, but that doesn’t mean I am one of those people that drowns in dirt and lives in a complete dump. When it starts to get bad, I usually have a nice girl come in to help me get caught up and do the big stuff. Then I yell at Sean and the kids to try and keep the place clean. And I try to pick up after myself a little. Then it starts to get bad again. Then after I work overtime, I hire the girl again.

I am thinking that I may have to hire landscapers for my front yard. But I don’t want to pay for it. Its just that I really know so little about plants and shrubs. No, I will persever on my own. If I just plant one shrub a day then soon they will all be planted.

Well I’ve been trying to follow weight watchers for 4 days now. I stayed within the 24points for 2 days, and for 2 days I used the remainder of the points I had. (Well those two days I simply stopped counting and pigged out at my Mom’s but that’s pretty much the ww freebies that I used.) Now I need to stick with the 24 points a day till Wed. night. And then the week starts all over. Until I know I’m losing, I don’t think I’ll even bother weighing myself.

I’m also putting off exercising until I get a handle of nutrition.

My goals today:

1. Stick to weight watchers points.

2. Eat slowly.
