Nikki's Sweet Nothings

a place for me to ramble about nothing - may it be about my weight loss, my family, or just to be silly and/or sassy!

I want 140's!!!! Wahhhhhh!

It's so close - two pounds away. Yet so elusive! This Tuesday (weigh in day) was 152. I was feeling like today might be a skinny day, so I jumped on the scale. Still 152. *sigh* I've been such a good girl! Just drop, dammit!!!

Hasn't been a very exciting week so far. The kids are finishing up their swimming lessons. Today was supposed to be there last day (testing), but it was raining and only 65 out, so they were cancelled. We'll go tomorrow.

They were fighting like mad yesterday! I'm so sick of the fighting. I just let them yell at each other. Pretty soon I heard Jacob crying "Jessica bit me!" and then a thwap! "Wahhhh, Jacob hit me!". Ugh. 10 minutes later they went running outside together to build a fort. I swear they have a conspiracy designed to drive me crazy! 14 days until the first day of school.....

I got the class lists for both of them this week. Jessica will go to 4 year old kindergarten from 8-11:15am. This is good. I can get everyone out of the house in the morning and have a couple hours to myself. John says that I will just go back to bed, but I said, no I'll actually be able to get things done in a timely manner because I won't hear "Moooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!" all the time! LOL!

We played our last regular game of league volleyball last nite. Next week tourneys start. We played the #1 team last night. Oh, we really wanted to kick their asses!! They were so cocky! We had them on a run 9-1. Then they came back with a wicked server. They ended up winning 14-11. Bummer.

I really like playing volleyball. We were talking about joining the winter co-ed league. That would be good. It's difficult for me to be motivated to exercise in the winter. Can't go outside to rollerblade or for a walk unless you like walking in boots, hats, gloves, snowpants, etc.

Our September is going to be very busy. I was looking at the calendar this am. Every weekend is filled! Lots of family events and even some adult play time! We're going to go 4 wheeling one weekend with friends. The last weekend of the month we're going to help John's cousin at their wine fest. They own Von Stiehl winery in Algoma, WI (by Door Cty). It's a hoot! And all the free wine I can drink....maybe not so much this year! LOL!
