Wow, I have seriously been slacking. Or busy. Or both. I had intended on picking up on the March Happiness Challenge and finishing it out, but that didn't happen. There have been a myriad of things going on and I just haven't really felt up to blogging and I've been slacking on filming vidoes.
I was sick for almost the whole month of March. And then one day while I was driving home from errands, my transmission went out. Ugh. Luckily things were arranged and I had my van back a week later. My father-in-law was nice enough to let me borrow one of his trucks during that time.
April is the month of birthdays around here. All 3 of my childrens' birthdays are in April, and they each fall about a week apart. My youngest son turned 11 on the 5th, my daughter turned 8 on the 13th, and my oldest son will be 16 on Thursday. Doesn't seem they could each be as old as they are. I feel like I blinked and poof!
I haven't been volunteering at school for a while. I stopped going in when I got sick and I was sick for so long by the time I started to feel better the kids got out for spring break. We didn't really do anything special, just kinda vegged out and relaxed, which was actually pretty nice.
I'm in my second month of my low-buy. (I am allowing myself 9 products a month.) In March I went over by 11 or 12 items. That sounds pretty bad, but I would have purchased WAY more than that if I hadn't been doing the low-buy. This month I have purchased 3 products, but 2 of them got returned, bringing me down to one. So I'm doing a pretty awesome job this month! My one item is the Pink Popcorn lipstick from MAC's Reel Sexy collection, but I don't have it yet. I ordered online at Nordstrom and it's on back order. I'm not a patient person either, so it's driving me crazy!
I am sick again. Nothing horrible, mostly sore throat, runny nose, sneezing...I'm definitely not as bad as I was last month. Still I skipped my workout today and took a nap instead. While it was nice to do that, I will be kicking myself for NOT working out because I'm weird like that.
Speaking of working out, I had completed the 30 Day Shred a while ago and moved onto the Ripped in 30. Trying to keep up with that while being sick was pretty hard. I got to level 4 and had to quit. I started alternating days between Killer Buns and Thighs and 6 Week 6 Pack. 2 weeks ago I didn't feel I was getting anything out of it so I decided to restart on the Ripped In 30 plan. I will start level 3 tomorrow.
Anyway, that's some of the stuff that's been going on here. Thought maybe if I wrote up a post it would help get me back into trying to blog. We'll see!
Wow.. you've had a pretty busy time. This low buy is driving me crazy. I am going to modify mine too and then maybe it won't be so bad.
ReplyDeleteI feel like this whole school year has been crazy. It could have been way busier but last year was nothing like this year.
