Just post it...

I just checked, and I have 3 "draft" posts, waiting to be finished. Why can't I just get them done and move on?? Maybe I keep thinking I have more to say, or a better way to say it, or have pictures to add to the story.... any one of those could be the answer to my procrastination.

So my mom said "just post something"... so here is what I'm doing today, or at least what I'm thinking about these days!

In a few minutes Ruby and I are going to Gramma Jan's house to exercise on her Wii Fit and I'm totally excited about it! There are so many possibilities... yoga, strength training, aerobics, sports....

(oops... have to wipe a bumm.... maybe another reason for the lack of posts???)

Anyway, after that I have to bake some bread and get dinner in the crockpot. I'm going to try a new Weight Watchers chicken recipe - I'll let you know how it turns out.

Speaking of weight watchers, I've starting going back to the meetings as I have a friend who recently joined and is all gung-ho about the program. I am back to being a paying customer because I'm way over my goal weight. Let's just say it was a good summer, with lots of happy hours, cheetos, no exercise, camping food, etc, etc. I am officially busted out of my clothes so I better get back on track because a) I cannot afford to pay WW every week and 2) I certainly cannot afford to buy a BIGGER wardrobe! Augh... why does this have to be such a difficulty in my life? Why can't I be like Rodger and only eat to survive??

I'm madly working on my scrappy lap quilt which I am dying to get done! I'm so tired of looking at those flannel, plaid fabrics!! They have been used in our winter queen-size quilt, a wall-hanging, 5 Christmas stockings, and now the lap quilt... like I said, I'm anxious to be done with those fabrics so I can eagerly await my JELLY ROLL!! I ordered it online and I have no idea how long it takes to be shipped from the U.S., but I hope it's soon because I want to start on the boys' quilts this Fall.

Tonight Simon is going to Cadets and he's so excited!! I think he's the most excited about going to bed late every second Wednesday night, to be honest! It's his 3rd year and unfortunately Cameron still has to wait one more year - poor guy.

Well, I'm out of time because it's time for Wii Fit! And I promise to hit "post" this time!

  1. Hi ya, so what's a Jelly Roll?

  2. a jelly roll is a bunch of 2 1/2 inch strips of fabric, all rolled up like a jelly roll... then you just use a special jelly roll quilt pattern that uses those strips, randomly put together. Way less cutting, and you don't need to think about colour coordination because they've done it for you!
