Ramblings on what I've learned, liked, and loved lately...in no particular order.
- A friend posted this quote on fb earlier this week, and I thought it was great.
"A true friend doesn't care when you're broke, what you weigh, if your house is a mess, about your past, or if your family is filled with crazies...they love you for who you are. A true friend can go long periods of time without speaking and never questions the friendship."
- What I learned this weekend? Don't bet against my brother-n-law when it comes to old Clint Eastwood movie quotes. You will lose. badly. everytime. ;)
- The last few weeks I have started going to a workout class 3x a week. You've gotta love coming out of a class feeling tons better than before it started. Kicks my butt! love it. Wish I knew about these classes earlier. Even with the chaos of screaming children running around while you're working out, it's still worth it. My little girl even helps by acting as my extra weight. love it.
- Speaking of working out, I think I need new shoes. During class today my left foot started going numb...probably not a good sign.
- Time-Outs are necessary. For Me. When my patience has run thin, and the house is a mess, I throw my hands in the air, decide I don't care, and then put myself on a time-out. After my much needed breather I tackle the messy house and screaming kids with LESS tension and usually a smile on my face.
- Found another cooking blog that I love to check out. Jamie Cooks It Up. I found a recipe for chocolate chip cookie dough truffles! Everything looks so yummmy on her blog. I cannot wait to try some of her recipes.
Okay that is all I can think of for now..

Love the quote about friendship! Thanks for sharing. I needed to hear that! Thanks for being my friend! You are a wonderful one and friends like you don't come along very often. Thanks for looking past my OCD, crazy family and my obsession with weight and food. Love you oodles and oodles!
Love it Em! Hey, where do you do the class? I would love to join too if the timing is right. Let me know. :)
I love Jamie's food blog. It's awesome & so is she. I guess I need to give in & go to the workout classes too. Everyone else is doing it, so why not?! LOL!
Glad you're enjoying the workouts! They kick my trash as well :) (The workouts are Mon, Wed, Fri at 9am at the LDS church on Mt Ogden Peak Drive and Juniper Crest. Mon and Fri are weights/strength and Wed is a jazzercise type class.)
Though numb feet are probably not a good sign!
Love the friend quote.
I am also a big fan of time outs and need them frequently :)
Racenmommy, give in to peer pressure and come to the workouts (not that you need them, just so we can see your smiling face) :)
mmmm - cookie dough truffles.....dont tempt me!
