Midweek Confessions

Well, another week has come and gone and it's Wednesday again..So, you know what that means..

~ Since, I have had Harper I have lost a total of 20 pounds ( I gained a total of 30 ) so I need to lose 10 more to be back to my "normal" size. However, each time I try to start a diet we go to Mexican or get pizza from some place. So , I need to really stick to it so I fit into my swimsuit in 2 months.

~ It is funny how much time it takes to get ready to go somewhere with a baby. It takes me about twice as long to get anywhere which this is not good for me, since I am always running behind.

~ I cannot wait to start tanning.. I know that it is so bad to go to tanning salons but I just love having a base tan. I just feel better, look better, and have more energy when I am tan. So, I am starting next week to get some color on my legs :)

~ I feel like I have become the neighborhood watchdog. Since, I am up with Harper odd hours of the night I have started to notice that there is always weird cars going up and down our street. Last night, a guy was driving on our street at 4 am with his lights on inside his car and was swerving all over the road. So, I took down his car description in case I see that car again. So, people better watch out on my street since I will be taking note :)

~ I only have had time to read one book this year and that is an improvement previous years. It is not because I don't like to read but more of just getting distracted and not able to finish the book in a timely fashion. When I taught, I was always busy reading student essays or books for class and during the summer I would get distracted by outdoor activities, like golf or reading gossip magazines. For example, for 2  summers in a row I read Eat, Love& Pray and never was able to finish it. I do not know if was because I got bored with the book or just got busy. However, this year I read an excellent book, The Fortunes Rock by Anita Shreve and finished it in two weeks. I am hoping to start reading Nicholas Sparks new book, The Best of Me. ( We will see how long this takes me :)...

~ We are headed to my hometown for Easter so Harper can meet her great grandparents. It is so wonderful that she is going to be able to meet them, since many people do not have that opportunity with their great grandparents. I feel so blessed to have my family close to me and to be able to meet our little girl.
