So What! Wednesday

It's time to link up for So What! Wednesday!



So What Wednesday


So What! if...

...I just pretty much talked Mathilda out of going to Tot Time at the library this morning. I guess the twentieth time of me saying in a super chipper voice, "we could stay home and play today if you'd like!" did the trick.

...Mathilda cracks me up when she talks about when she was a baby. It usually starts something like this, "When I was a baby, I was crying..." You're not too far off the mark, kid.

...I'm frustrated that for some reason the girls' hand-me-down shoes rarely work out. Somehow they never seem to fit the next girl. I have all Lucy's shoes she wore in preschool, and all of them are too big for Mathilda.

...allergies are kicking my family's collective butt this year and it's getting old, real old.

...every day I'm so afraid I'm going to forget to do something on my calendar and I'm looking at that dang thing every couple hours to double check. Coupled with that is the fear that I forgot to write something on the calendar in the first place, in which case I would never ever ever remember to do it.

...the other night I got an amazing 7 hours of sleep, and I felt like crap when I woke up in the morning, like that foggy, head-achy feeling that I slept too long.

...I want to be like Gwyneth Paltrow and work out for an hour and a half every day.

...but my hand still goes numb sometimes when I over-do it, and I tend to get debilitating headaches, and that kind of freaks me out. So then I start slowing down because I don't want to wind up passing out or visiting the ER.

...I need to add a lot more weights to my workouts but they BORE me. Still though, I need to do it if I ever want to see any results.

...speaking of results, how is it that I have increased my workouts by like 200% and decreased my food intake - completely eliminating meat and reducing my sugar intake, yet my jeans are still tight? I'm in it for the health benefits more than anything, but it would be nice if I could lose a few pounds in the process.

What are you saying So What! to this week?

So what if it took me a whole year to lose 40 pounds and a few jean sizes...it may take a while for you too! Keep up the hard work and it will come I promise.

Some days when I sleep less I feel better than the days I sleep more, weird but true. It has to be at least 7-8 hours though!

@Shelly, thanks! But I am seriously starting to think something is wrong with me! And Cheryl & Shannon...I love my sleep, but I've apparently become so accustomed to being deprived of it that my body doesn't know what to do with a "normal" amount?!
