Food Friday


The procedure was short and sweet. Sweet because nothing was found wrong with my guts. It was also sweet because I was able to eat food and I may have over indulged. Oooops. I have overindulged the past few days actually(I am writing this on Saturday). I figure it is okay because at one point on Thursday I was down 8 pounds.

It was also fun to hang out with the other family and especially to hold Ezra. He is just so dang cute. Spencer was hilarious at Culver's. He said he liked pickles. I have my doubts! He is cute and funny. Enjoy the pickle video!

Here are some funny things that happened because I was hopped up on drugs:
1. I was drinking a coke right after coming out of anesthesia, and said: "Where did I get this?" Apparently, the doctor had asked me if I wanted a coke and I had even said, "that would be wonderful!" I do remember him asking about Coke and champagne but I didn't realize he was talking to me(I thought he was offering the nurses some, like he was not really talking to me or even near me)
2. I said: "Ah this is what real Coke tastes like, I am never going back to Diet Coke!"
3. I told Morgan it must be really hard to have three kids. She has four!
4. On the way to get frozen yogurt, I rolled down the window and yelled to Papa John's to tell me about their specialty pizzas. They had a sign that said I should! Morgan rolled up my window and then locked it. She said I lost window privileges.
5. I walked into the side mirror of a car at the frozen yogurt place.
6. It took me a long time to put toppings on my yogurt.
7. I kept messing up words.
8. I farted(be easy on me...they pumped my intestines full of air!) and told Josh he is gay. This is a funny that he and I always say but we make farting noises instead of actually farting. He and Caleb always used to really fart because boys are boys. Josh thought I was weird and that my fart was weak. I thought I was hilarious.

I bet there were more funny things but this is all I remembered and wrote down yesterday! It was fun to have a valid excuse to be "drunk." We Mormons have to take what we can get! :)

Not Thirsty Thursday.


Thursday was a day of drinking. Liquid diets are my least favorite thing on the planet. Wait...I take that back. Drinking Magnesium Citrate is my least favorite thing on the planet. NASTY!! The day was also spent becoming close friends with my bathroom. We are good buds.

Good thing I had sub plans ready to go for today because I needed them. I thought I could get away with just taking Friday off for the procedure, but nope...pretty sickly today.

By the way. Jello is so not worth the calories. Just sayin'!

Wednesday


Hi kid. Wednesday was normal. Normal is nice. Jane and I went to Weight Watchers meeting and then to dinner. I told Jane I wasn't really excited to go to Applebee's but Apple sounded delicious(see sign!). It was what I called my Last Supper seeing Thursday and part of Friday I had to plan on a clear liquid diet in preparation for Friday's procedure. Looking back on it now, the Paradise Chicken Salad really was paradise compared to juice and Jello. The End.

Made it Monday and Trendy Tuesday.


Here are some pics of Valentine's Day. Today I did not take any pictures, but I will share with you a funny quote. Let me just go through the pics.

At faculty meeting on Monday, we talked about our social studies department and how they are teaching social skills including respect to their classes. We found it funny that the teacher in charge actually stole the respect sign from a different teacher without asking. Hmmmm. The quote of the day from the meeting was this: "If kids are not doing what they should be during testing, they will be brought to the office and executed." I think our Vice Principal had a Freudian Slip!

My Leadership Class loved their Valentine's party. We had some amazing treats. A few of the kids brought stuff in and my intern(she is from Utah Valley University and is just checking out the teaching profession.) brought cheesecake and soda. I loved it and was in heaven for thirty seconds as I ate my donut.

One of my co-workers gave me that card. Sorry it is sideways but I love the saying which reads: "Who wants a beau anyway." I think that is the most depressing card ever and I LOVE IT! It just made me smile.

The weather was great yesterday and I had a fabulous run outside. I even spoke to those sheep and some ducks along my route.

Today was a nice day too. Went really fast. I like that. My friend Jane was joking around after I had mentioned something about covering my own butt for sub planning and she said: "No you can't cover that, they need access to it." This because I will be having a colonoscopy on Friday. Mom, DO NOT WORRY. Just checking things out. Want to make sure there isn't anything weird going on in there. I am thinking it is just weird IBS stuff, but better to have it checked out, right?

Weekend Special


Due to the fact that it is after 11 and I need to get to bed, I will just make a list of all the fun things I did this weekend. Tomorrow I will blog about the day of love.
1. Picked up my Bountiful Basket in Eagle Mountain. It was a peaceful little drive.
2. Watched the nephews at swim lessons. Cute, no?
3. Held Ezra while he slept. I also for the first time successfully buckled him into his car seat. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but it was!
4. Saw five Bald Eagles on Eagle Day!
5. Had amazing pizza with the Hageys.
6. Had "eggs" made by little Oliver.
7. Saw Ninja Beanie Baby.
8. Watched a movie with Morgan and Derek
9. Ate amazing frozen yogurt with M&D.
10. Made an amazing omelet. Not really an omelet but close enough.
11. Cut my finger open pretty deep. No stitches but it hurts. (Guess that wasn't really a fun thing!)
12. Ate an amazing chocolate rose made by a friend from church.
13. Bravely talked to a cute boy at church.
14. Stood in the sun and starred at the temple.
15. Made valentines for the kiddos.

Good weekend for sures. Even with the cut finger.
