Random Stuff About Me - I've Been Tagged

Random Stuff About Me:

  1. I was born pigeon toed and had to wear shoes with a bar on them until I was one. My Mom said I kicked the holy living shit out of my crib and it had to be thrown away. I guess I was always ADD.
  2. When I was 5 my older sister was supposed to be watching me, but she let me climb on top of a swingset and I fell back on my head and was knocked out and had a concussion. My parents didn’t take me to the ER until the next day when I was projectile vomiting. I spent two days in the hospital.
  3. I am pretty ADD about my jobs, so I tend to switch frequently. The longest job I ever had was at Alcoa and that lasted ten years. I’ve been in my current job for 2 ½ years, that is the longest run since Alcoa.
  4. I have never eaten a steak in my entire life. I have never eaten ribs in my entire life. I have very bad texture issues, and it grosses me out to have to chew on meat.
  5. When I was young, my Chihuahua was chasing me because I was eating a hot dog. I fell and cracked open my face. I had a really bad scar all my life that bothered me, so I had scar revision surgery when I was 28. It is very unnerving to have a Dr. slice into your face when you are awake! But I am now glad that I did it because it looks so much better.
  6. I got my belly button pierced when I was 27, skinny and hot. Now all I have is an ugly scar! I do not have any tattoos on my body.
  7. My parents have been happily married for 41 years and my Dad still treats my Mom like a Queen! They are great parents.
  8. I got married for the first time @ age 20 to my older son’s Father. It lasted 7 years. He is still in my son’s life and we now are friends. We are both remarried.
  9. I am a bit of a loner. I prefer to do a lot of things by myself and am very independent. My sister is the complete opposite, she won’t even exercise alone! I often wonder how two such very different people are sisters!
  10. I like to work hard and play hard…that is my motto! I love a challenge and am very competitive.

Hump Day!

Halfway through the week...yay. I am missing my boys a little! But I've been sooo busy. I still need to clean my house for FMIL's visit! Ugh. But I do plan on some relaxation tonight!

Did P90X Back & Biceps this morning (56:01, 305 calories) will be running 3 miles at lunch, then doing Ab Ripper after work. This will put me at 6 AP's today.

Finally Done!!


Thank the 8 pound baby Jesus, I am done painting the living room. It looks pretty, if I do say so myself!

I am *so* tired...it killed me to get up this morning and do P90X Plyometrics. But I did. I had to cut it a little short since I was running late this morning.

The Jelly Shoes....ask and you shall receive...


Just for you J-MO! LMAO



Why oh why?

Did I think it was a good idea to paint by myself? I spent 4 hours last night painting and it still needs another coat. So much for relaxation! And I was drinking beer while painting and forgot to eat dinner. The painting got worse after each beer...LOL!

I was too tired to get up to workout this morning, so I'll be running 3 miles at lunch, then doing P90X Chest, shoulders & triceps & Ab Ripper after work. Then I'll finish the 2nd coat of paint...eh.

It was weird waking up to nobody in the house...it's too quiet. But I know I must enjoy it now, because FMIL will be here in 4 days.

Father's Day


It's Father's Day...and my DH and DS are leaving me. DH had back to back trips scheduled, so he is taking DS on this trip today with him to North Carolina. He didn't want to leave him for another week.

He is such a good Daddy! Brayden is very excited to get some male bonding time with Daddy.

I am going to take the dogs to run, hit the pool (I won't know how to act by myself!!) and then start painting the living room later, I already bought the paint this morning.

I am on my own until Friday night!!! My older son Jeffrey is at his Dad's today, then is headed to my Dad's house to help him this week.

Homecoming Saturday

My DH is coming home today, so I wanted to get my workout in early. Brayden has been quite the whiner this morning, so he interrupted me a few times. He hates when he is not getting 100% of my attention! Then my oldest interrupts me to tell me that he's hungry...um, hello you are 19, fucking make yourself something! I didn't say that, I just gave him my stern look of disapproval and he knew to leave me alone.

Did P90X Kempo this morning, it is pretty much just kickboxing, its a fun workout.
