What comes next???

So. This blog was intented to help my friends and i start a workout regimen. It failed. I...failed. I have not been posting anything about it at all. I just think that no matter how hard we all try to help one another commit to this, we are too busy to ever come together over the internet let alone meet up in person. I'm sitting in bed this morning in my flannel pj's after a long nights rest. There are sooo many things that I need to get done around here, but for some reason I have to take care of stuff elsewhere. Sunday, instead of cleaning and doing laundry as planned, I took the day to support my husbands band and the charity fundraising event he was performing at. Charities are something that I've always loved to be a part of and man did this one really put a dent in my soul. I was upset after having put out a box at a local restaurant for donations to bring joy to some of the children who are less fortunate than others. I went to pick the box up after it's due date and found that not a single toy or dollar had been dropped into it. I was angry, hurt, frustrated, and more than anything I was dissapointed. After having reeled through a lenghty list of cuss words in my head that descriped people who are selfish and just feel the need to have to be an Ebinenezer Grinch....I got myself together and thought of a backup plan. I called my brother at the hotel he works at for help. He in turn gathered his co workers who each pitched in money towards the donation box. Why didn't I think of putting that box at his workplace before? I dunno. I'm just glad they came through along with my parents and my husband. Sunday morning, Eric and I....that's my husbands...Eric, we went to different stores and gathered as many toys as we could with the money we raised. Not bad. :) So all in all Sunday went EXTREMELY well despite the fact that Erics set time was supposed to be between 7-9pm but was pushed back to almost midnight....(Sorry Kelly). :) :) Then comes Monday. The day was going as planned, I got up and did SOME chores and went to lunch with my husband. Shortly after, I ran errands and did SOME of my Christmas shopping. The little ones are checked off the list. :) As soon as Eric got home from work we headed to my parents house to bake more cookies and spend time with the kiddos. Madison started to breath heavy and so we headed to get her medicine, once her tummy began to ache....Uncle Eric, Grandma and I hauled her off to Childrens Medical where we sat for nine hours (7pm-4am) nodding off awaiting the arrival of her results.The reason we took her there is because we had been instructed to do so by her physician. She has had pneumonia three times already and we just have to take her as a precautionary. She was ok. Just a bit of allergies, her asthma acting up and a little infection. BUT now, she is ok. I came home and slept till 4pm the next and realized I was catching a cold...AGAIN> So, I took some meds, a shower, got it together and headed to moms with Eric once more. There we took my other niece Marisa to get some supplies she needs for school. I also helped her make her frosting and get her stuff ready for today. I should be getting ready to head to her school now but Im here getting up the energy. Still a bit tired. She is having a day full of ginger bread house making in her class and I promised her I would be there. I'm late. Good thing I called her to tell her I was running late so she wouldn't be too upset with me. They are allowed to bring a family member to help them with their project. So, I'm going to get up, get ready, pack a lunch and go hang with the 5th graders for the day! This week....I'm SUPER AUNT....lol. If you want to know where her parents are? They are in California. Ok...so of course, by the time I get back home I'll be tired I'm sure and ready for dinner and a movie....no wait....my husband has practice today and I promised Madison, Maverick and Marisa that I would help them decorate the Christmas tree at grandma's house. SO< in short...no I will not be able to get things done today, but on the bright side...there's always tomorrow....God willing. Then I will write up my list of to do's that I have to get done BEFORE my mother in law comes in next week for the holidays. :\ Also, I will hope to be able to put down the issues going on with my dad Vol. One. Of course I will not be working out today....although I will make it a point to try....it probably wont happen till tomorrow. Till then, off I go....gingerbread house here I come!
