The workings of a bipolar mind.

Didn’t hit the gym yesterday. Had a small company get-together that I had to attend. Lots of carbs, mostly in the form of pasta. Diet wasn’t too bad but definately can be better. Need to get my goals and measurements together this weekend for the C5 Challenge. Maybe that will help me keep on track with my diet. Since I haven’t really set any goals for myself I haven’t been keep with the diet and workouts like I should. Tried out my Wii last night, just played bowling since that’s the only game we have right now. The calendar is still in process, well on hold for a few days til the Olympia is over. I hate waiting.

Yipii, I got my Wii today!! I mean the one I got for my son.

Long weekend, full of good food, drinks and friends and family. Friday night was a surprise bday party for a good friend. Saturday I had a bunch of errands to run but crashed around 7 and slept a great 13 hours. Sunday was my cousin’s baby shower. Yummy chinese food and cake. We all ate 2 pieces. Yes, the sweet tooth runs in the family. Tonight should be chest and triceps but I’m so sleepy. I know once I pound down the supps I’ll be ready to hit the gym. Or my bed.

How many cookies can you eat before it becomes too many?

My tummy hurts. I’m not sure if it’s from the carmel candy or the kisses. Hopefully the cookies I bake tonight will make me feel better.

Life is going great. Been busy at my day job. Gettin some good overtime in. Loving Charlie, my new baby. (yes, her name is Charlie) If gas weren’t so damn expensive I’d be driving all over, just to drive. Back in the gym this week too, feeling good and sore. This weekend will be a surprise bday party at a club, drinks and food. My favorite. Sunday will be a baby shower for my cousin, she’s having her second…a girl. Of course the first thing I ask is, will there be food? So I’ve placed an order with my cousin of what I would like. Hey, I don’t live close by so I have to take advantage of home cooked chinese food. Really the only thing I miss about living close to family. I can do without the drop-ins and snooping. Calendar is coming along finally, we ran into a few hiccups but it’s getting squared away.

Our chili cookoff at work went great. Big turnout and the only sweets I had were a few mints. Had bbq chicken and tritips. So good. I was so exhausted that I skipped the gym. I’m just going to call this week a rest week, which I really felt I needed anyways. As I was laying in bed last night I wanted to grab my blanket and pillow and sleep in my car. Can you tell I love it.

Two fantastic things to report. I bought my new (used) baby last night and this morning I weighed in at 128.5lbs!!!

Last night I received a call from my son’s stepmother. I was half asleep but I guess she was approached by some lady at his soccer practice asking if he would like to do modeling/commercials. (He’s 10) so stepmommy said she asked my son and he said ok. She took him to do a "reading" and I guess last night she received a call and they want him to do a screening. So last night she wanted to run this by and see if it was ok. First of all, I understand that my son is adorable and of course he belongs on screen but don’t you think she should have asked me BEFORE actually taking him to do a reading? She also tells me that for his screening my ex will have to be there because they want both parents. But yet she doesn’t say I have to be there. In other words she and my ex. Well I have joint custody with my ex. I would think legally, they would need MY approval, not hers. Maybe I’m making a big deal about this but it was really bothering me. I tossed and turned all night thinking about it. This isn’t like signing him up for soccer, this is something big. If my son really wants to do it I will support that, but….

****ing Raiders!!!! They made me eat cookies last night.
