Me…Right Now

I totally stole this post from Denae. I really hope she doesn’t mind. :)

What I'm doing: trying to not feel guilty that I’m on the computer and the kids are up.

What I wish I were doing: laying on the grass and reading a book in the sun.

What I had for lunch: leftover bean and bacon soup with 8 saltine crackers. And Diet Pepsi.

What I am worried about: whether or not I am doing everything I should be doing for my kids.

What else I'm worried about: whether or not I’ll ever lose weight.

What else I'm worried about: the fact that sometimes, I don’t care if I lose weight.

My current bad habit: keeping chocolate hiding in my bedroom.

What I think about constantly: right now, it’s transracial adoption. I’m reading In Their Own Voices: Transracial Adoptees Tell Their Stories. Very interesting. Very eye-opening.

What I can't wait for: when I have enough money to my buy the camera I really, really want.

What I love: taking pictures, my daughter’s hugs, my youngest son’s snuggles, when my oldest son sits really close to me and reads and then pretends like he isn’t cuddling me, watching a movie with Bryan and putting my cold feet on his warm feet.

What I hate: chore charts, food addictions and cleaning the bathroom.

What I would buy if I had some spare change: a new swimming suit, a camera, a new faucet for the bathroom sink.

What I am working on: using the computer less. Especially when my kids are around.

What else I am working on: an awesome website – Mormon Women.

What I am doing this weekend: Bryan’s in a triathlon, the end of season soccer party, and a primary party.

What I miss: having a close girl-friend to chat up during the day.

Wow, those flowers are so incredible! I'm totally in love with the bottom ones. They're so amazing they hardly even look real!

Wow, I think I might be living your life! Except for the soccer and Primary party, those two things might send me over the edge this weekend.

Thanks for the peek into your brain. :)

So what is this Mormon Women website you're doing? I'm intrigued...

I love this post! I am with you on the computer thing. We're turning off the internet in the house, it was supposed to go off two days ago and has not and I am finding it harder than I thought to let go. I'm there with you on the weight thing too. I think about it all the time, and sometimes I really would rather indulge a craving than worry about shedding pounds.
