Rambling...attempt one

Since Margo is taking on the world, I will lighten my blog. Someone has to keep the random (and sometimes useless) thoughts flowing!! I know that I will never be the spectacularly funny rambler that is Margo, but baby steps!! Okay...here goes...

Very disappointed in Grey's Anatomy being a rerun. What the heck? We get three episodes and then a rerun from week before last? Seriously, week before last? Who are we kidding...it's not like you can't just jump into any episode and figure out the tangled web of who's slept with whom and the total havoc it has caused. Come on, ABC, don't make me give my viewage to a witty but lesser viewed show that no one else watches so I can't even discuss....

Since I was unable to fill my brain with new smut, I was forced to read Ladies Home Journal and eat the rest of the chocolate chip cookies at 9:00 PM (which I guess is technically filling my brain and my body with new smut, but whatever). Never a good move. That is how one wrong move has a ripple affect and causes many to stumble. ABC show reruns, Shellee gets bored, Shellee eats mindlessly at bedtime, Shellee weighs in at Weight Watchers, Shellee gains weight, Shellee gets grumpy, Shellee is cruel and inhumane to everyone, the world is a darker place...

Girls Galore

I'm going to try and blog once a week. I know it's a weak commitment, but it's all I've got!

Today was a good day...I found out that my baby brother and his wife Leigh are expecting a girl. There are a lot of girls being born to the Gilbert siblings. When my brother James and my sister Charlyn add their girls in February, there will be a total of 10 girl grandchildren to 5 boys. That's a lot of hormones!!!

The amazing thing is that 40% of those girls are Powells!! So, we own 40% of those hormones!! That is a scary thought! We're not saving for college, we're saving for psychiatric treatment for me and Wes!!

So if I seem on edge, you now know why!!

Thanks Clayton for helping me out! (How did you know that I had unsuccessfully tried to link to your blog???)

Saurdays and Snoring

Oh how I love sleeping in. Saturdays and sleeping in are definitely gifts from God!! I awoke at 9:00am to Emma's poking on my face. She needed cereal! Kids are so needy!

I decided to log my weight watchers points for yesterday and let's just say, NOT GOOD!! I only have 11 flex points left for the remainder of the week! And, knowing how I like to go over my points everyday, I feel as though that may not be enough! I read in my WW brochure yesterday that exercising in order to eat more is NOT HEALTHY!! That's a bit of bad news because that has always been my motivation for exercising!! I've lost a total of 4.6 pounds...that's .4 pounds away from a bookmark....man am I all about the prizes!!

Anyhoo, I'm now on a mission to have my house cleaned by the time we leave for our softball game (at 12:45)! So, off I go! Wish me luck.
