Weekends

I hope you all had a great and relaxing weekend. I for one, had a very busy weekend, but then again what else is new?. I had a lot of things to do around the house. If you read my previous post, you know I was having major issues last week because I was so behind with my cleaning. Doing the bare minimum can only get you so far, but I digress.

I also started working out!  Yes, people I finally did it. I set my alarm clock for 4:50A and I was at the gym by 5:11A. I'm not going to lie, when I got home after my work out and I took a shower, I felt great, I felt accomplished. I felt like I could do it all.  I like that feeling and I plan to continue going not only to  look better, but feel better as well.

Speaking of feeling better,  I also went for a manicure and pedicure.  My mom and I have being going every other week. I think its so important to treat yourself to a little girl time. Wether its with a friend, your sister  or your mom, nothing makes you feel better than some girl time, especially if  it  includes  a mani and pedi, well  a pair of new shoes would work just fine as well. :)

So how was your weekend? What did you  guys do?

Overwhelmed much?

This is how I'm feeling this week, don't really know why.  I've noticed that I get like this when my house (and by house I mean our 2 bedroom/2bath apartment)  is not as neat or clean as I want it to be. The last couple of weekends have been busy, so I really haven't done much, but the bare minimum. Is  it bad that the state your house is in, determines the way your state of mind is? or even your mood? But, that's just part of it, between work, Ralphy and of course, the husband, it takes work and it can feel a little overwhelming sometimes.

I'm planning on getting things back on track this weekend and do some major cleaning and organizing. I'm also adding working out to my list, but I  see that as a good thing.  I will keep you posted on that little project. In the mean time,I will be content  just by having a  clean house... Well, a new pair of shoes would be nice, but for now, I'll take the  clean house.

One of those weeks....

Its been one of those weeks so far. I'm hoping I can get it together by Friday. 

Weekend recap

Hi everyone,


Hope you all had a great weekend.  I didn't do anything too exciting or special. Just hung out around the house, did some cleaning and laundry while Ralphy was at the pool with his sister  and daddy. One thing I did realize is ( and this was not a good realization, actually this was more like a wake up call). This weekend, I realized that I've gained weight and I'm very unhappy about it.

 So, today I woke up and I started a  food log. I  wrote down everything I ate today and I did pretty well I think. Maybe that's why people say that its good to write down what you eat, I guess it does make you more aware.  Don't worry, I  won't bore you with the boring details. Just know that I did okay  for being the first day and for being a Monday. Now if I can only get my butt to the gym, but lets take it one step at a time shall we?

I must tell you that before I started this new eating better crap, I had  the yummiest , juiciest burger of my entire life. As a matter of fact, I wish I would've taken a picture of it so you could see it. We went to this Colombian place called Los Perros (  it translates to 'the dogs' in ). Just check out the web site. Anyways, I had the best burger ever.  It  was made fresh to order, with actual beef seasoned to perfection, this special cheese that when it melted it  was pure heaven and than they top it off with their special sauce. It was amazing and worth every single calorie, I figured since I was starting fresh today, I might as well go out and end the weekend  with a BAM! and I did and it was so worth it.

Okay, so what if I just made this post mostly about this burger and  that I'm drooling  just thinking about it,so what if that was the peak of my weekend.  Don't  judge me.

It's Friday!!

Friday is finally here!!!  I live for the weekends.  I really have no major plans, except I have a manicure and pedicure appointment with my mom and I look forward  to that time with her and of course you know, I have all the real fun stuff to do to before that, like the laundry and the cleaning. That fun never ends. 

I hope you all have a great weekend , have fun and go ahead get some sleep while you're at it.

Smooches!!!

Is it Friday yet??

This has been me all week ..

My thoughts on a Saturday

I need more sleep, this waking up so early, even on a Saturday sucks!

I need a maid, someone to clean and do all the laundry

I need to win the lottery so I can afford the maid

While I'm sitting here writing this post, I'm thinking  of all the laundry and the cleaning I have to do.

Daddy is still sleeping... must be nice!

I think one cup of coffee is not going to work,I'm ready for my second cup.

I can't wait to get together with my friends later for a BBQ... I need some friend time.

I have a headache, maybe its from waking up so early? ... hmmm

It looks like its going to to rain, what is it about the rain that makes you sleepy? hmmm I wounder.

Okay, that is all. I have cleaning a laundry to do.

This weekend was...

This weekend was a total BUST. We didn't do anything exciting, we were all sick. After 3 sleepless nights, with first the  munchkin getting, sick and then the hubby right after,  it was not fun at all.  It all started Wednesday night, so by Friday I was exhausted.

Then of course they started feeling better and I started feeling horrible. So, I spent Saturday and Sunday in bed, drinking hot tea,  orange juice, apple juice and of course chicken soup. My hubby took good care of me and with a little help from the in laws,  slowly by surely we are all getting back to normal.

 The only way I can get total peace and relaxation is if I'm sick, this is my conclusion.  It's just the way it is, but I rather have my 10 minute "alone time" in the bathroom (  you know you all do it too) then have a whole weekend in bed with a fever.

I must tell you that the peak of my weekend was when Ralphy came into my room to see me and he brought me he's big Elmo to keep me company. Isn't he the sweetest munchkin in the world or what?

Yeah, I'm a lucky girl.
