The Brain That Wouldn't Die....

So, I have decided that I am tired, flat out sick of being a mom blob. I love my children, but I have fallen into a rut, where I just sit and watch TV and keep the 8 mth old from killing himself for 13 hrs a day. My mind is mushifying...along with my thighs. TIME FOR ACTION!!

I have started taking the lil Meatloaf with me on fast-paced walks along our road. Our mountain road. It is very hilly and quite a workout. It beats any gym around. Not only am I going up and down hills that turn my legs to lead, but I am also avoiding redneck dogs, cars and the occasional errant wasp. Aside from the dangers, there is great beauty along the road. It is set in semi-shaded Alabama mountain farm country. There are cows and horses, along with burgeoning crops and tall grasses. I saw my first Tanager the other day, which is a beautiful red bird. There are wild irises and fleabane growing haphazardly along old fences. It is just amazing how simple the beauty is.

How can exercise be hard if it it against such scenery?!? So far the only complaint I have, is the whole "dealing with the stroller " issue. I live on a large piece of land, quite a walk from the aforementioned road, and I have to carry baby and stroller. That little umbrella stroller would be torn to shreds if I work to "off road" it.

Aside from the exercise, I have started to FINISH reading 4 books. They are to better my mind, spirituality, relationship and mothering skills. Also, I am getting back into arts and crafts. I love to paint with acrylics, use Sculpey clay and embroider. That's if the baby lets me. :) I hope you all are fulfilled with your lives, and find happiness everyday.

I'm a mommy, but I found me again. Yay!!!!!!!

"What's that tan building over there?" It's the gym, and you're going in.

How rude.

Just stand there with all your concrete and mock me. I'm going, I'm going. ENTER.

What is that...smell??? Ew, it smells like 2nd period HS Phys Ed class. Narf.... At least it's taking away the rotten stench of chicken droppings outside in the field. (Like a corpse)

Lots of shiny stuff to pull and yank me into thinhood...Is there a snack machine? I'm starrrrving. Hmmm maybe I'll take a Zumba class. 845am???????? Nevermind. Oh cripes.

Um, I dont even have anything to wear. No not a trip to Walmart!!!! Yish.

***That's today thus far....feel free to trade lives.***

GOTTA LOSE THAT BABY WEIGHT!!!!!! :P

Wit-Crafty

My Earth/Moon Goddess for my altar. I finally painted her and spray glazed her. I made a lil pentacle to hang also.  :) Yay. I had free time from the monkeys last night and got crafty. All I need is a besom, and I wanna make that, too...

THURSDAY THUNKS!!! :D

Welcome to the April 15th (Tax Day) version of "Thursday Thunks!"
(which we always seem to post on Wednesday)
Where we make you think a little bit before you blog!
We pick a subject, and your job is to interpret it anyway you want. Write about it on your blog... simple as that. Maybe you can interpret it as a picture - we don't care!
Please only leave a link if you have written a Thursday Thunks post. Please mention us in your post, and link back to the blog here.
Don't forget to go visit the other participants' blogs.Read and comment about all their Thursday Thunks! Thats what all this is about afterall, isn't it? We'll have so much fun and become lifelong friends....

The TT questions are brought to you by Berleen, the color of daisies and the number 0.

Got your taxes done? Yep, but the gubment took them back to pay off my school loan. "'Stards!"
What do batteries run on? Ramen Noodles like the rest of us.
What do chickens think we taste like? a salt lick
What do they call a French kiss in France?  Fronsch Keezzz
Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor and dishwashing liquid made with real
lemons? I could be witty, but I believe the lemon oil helps to cleans or disinfect or take the stank away.

How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said? Once, then it's just damn embarrassing.
I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Darn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away? Like my mother who has no clue about technology, and leaves a message and wonders where were you? Did you get my message??
So Mel Gibson left his girlfriend - think he's finally heard of me? He's a tool.
Why do they call it "getting your dog fixed" if afterwards it doesn't work anymore? If only I could run annoying males down to get fixed. And by fixed, I mean in the head, not the sack.
Are you bothered that I didn't number these? It'll keep me up tonight.

You're Going Down, Baby!!!!!!!

(Theme to "Rocky" being played in the distance...)
