TGIF!!!

I LOVE FRIDAYS!!!! For one I only have to work at one place usually and it's for 3 hours max...then I get to do whatever I want (even though lately I've just been...working :-/) BUT I STILL LOVE 'EM!!!!!!! For example, today I woke up [after sleeping in til 6...YAY!] Abby and I went and worked out and then I got to slowly get ready for the day, until mom said,"You'll be ready in 10 minutes right?" {I was in my pjs, hair still wet, no make-up on} We went and watched "ALIENS VS MONSTERS or MONSTERS VS ALIENS in 3-D!!!! The girls were a crack up to watch and my mom kept on pulling on my arm so I could see what Emery was doing! She kept saying "It's like it's not on the screen!" THEN I finally went to work at LFG....it was 11.45 :-) I enjoyed a little hour meeting, did some scanning, made a spread sheet, and wrote some checks. And Cami found a little butterfly outside...it was hurt! So she brought it inside and it's new home was in the back office with me!!!! [I just found out that she released our friend Margie....] I went home because I've spent the night at Abby's the past two nights and I was running out of clothes!!!!!!!!!!! I had a couple of hours before I was to go to Jack's house so I did homework while laying outside....man what a life!!!! Tonight I got to spend some time with Jack, just me and him. "I like you Allee." "I like you too Jack!!!!" He was super tired but I didn't want him to go to bed because he was being so cute....but I guess I didn't want to make him miserable. And NOW I'm just watching Phineous and Ferb while listening to the hum of the baby monitor in the back ground. I HAVE THE LIFE!!!!!! I get to go hang out with some of my family tonight and then I get to spend all day with them tomorrow!!! I HAVE A FULL SATURDAY OFF TOMORROW!!!!!!! {no going to someone's house for the evening or anything 'crazy' like that!} YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not only do I not have to work but I get to spend all day in dirty jeans and a t-shirt with my hair pulled back into a pony tail...not even a pretty one, just a ponytail! We're going to be over at Blake and April's new house, well it's going to be new when they put back together all the old stuff we've torn out. It's amazing what a little work will do!

And something else that I've loved this week...hard work. Abby and I have been going to the gym and it feels so good to sweat and feel it through the day! But my ulitmate of ulitmates is on Thursday my mom and I went to B&A's house and we worked HARD! We did alot. My jeans were nasty and my shirt was dirty too. And not dirty because I dropped dinner from last night on it either, dirty from physical labor! I got a blister and some scratches (it sounds bad but they hurt really bad! Not REALLY REALLY bad just bad enough to be annoying but it reminds me that I still am capable of doing physical work!) and my hands were even sore from holding onto a hammer so hard. ANYWAY, it's just been a good reminder to me that life isn't all about the type of jobs we have or even how much we make doing our jobs, it's about the things that make us feel accomplished and worth-while. AND it's just fun to see just exactly what my body can do!!! [even in it's not so fit form :-/]

So this week has been GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not bragging but sometimes some weeks are just, well, wonderful!!!!!!!!

What I want to know is why you are working out at the gym NOW when your Biggest Loser doesn't start until next month. Don't you want all your pounds to come off THEN? We haven't sent our stuff in yet but we are still planning on playing. Any chance you will move the start date up?

I would LOVE to start now!!! But I'm starting now because I'm motivated NOW and if I wait til later I just don't know what will happen :-) As far as moving it up....this was actually Ashley's idea and so she wanted to wait until after her baby was born so she thinks that she will be able to participate. But I can't wait to see how it all turns out!!!!!!!!!!

I just noticed that Heather Sanders is following your Biggest Loser website. How do you know her? She is my niece's best friend. I have only ever heard great things about her and her family. In fact, her mom and dad were Amanda's ma and pa on the trek. I don't know they really well (wish I did), but they seem like an amazing family.
