I confess that I haven't felt the need to blog that much this week. I don't know if it is the short work week, the lack of sleep from my girls being sick last week or summer. But my motivation hasn't been here all week.

I confess that I really want to go to the celebrity golf tournament again this year, but it conflicts with a wedding we are going to and it's right around the time my sister-in-law is due to give birth and we want to visit them after the baby is born. But I want to see Justin Timberlake again. Ugh. Such is the life.

I confess that I wish I was back in Mexico on the rooftop deck with a nice cold beer in my hand.

I confess that I finally finished OITNB season 4 yesterday and I was so sad. I won't spoil it for those who haven't finished it, but wow. So many thoughts and ideas with how season 5 will open up. Too bad that is a year away.

I confess that I really only get to watch my Netflix shows when I am at the gym. At this rate, I will be done with Gilmore Girls in a few years. Ha.

I confess that my hair looks like complete crap lately. If you remember about 6 weeks ago, I got it colored in an ashy bayalage blonde. Well now six weeks later, the color is basically gone and I have at least two inches of roots on each side of my head. There are not enough curls to cover this s*it up. I am so thankful for my morning hair appointment. Too bad I have to miss work in the morning to get it done and then work the rest of the day.

But I confess that I am super stoked to sleep in tomorrow since I have a morning appointment. Rory will take the girls to daycare and himself to work and I can sleep in an extra two hours. Oh how glorious that will be.

I confess that this weather is ruining our fun evenings. I love summer and the heat, but 90+ degrees is killing our evening walks. I would love for the weather to be in the 80s so we can take our evening walks, leave the windows open and not have so many fires around. California is on fire and the smoke drifts in every evening. We need to get outside more. Fire go away and bring back the 80s. Thank you.

I confess that my husband thinks I am weird since I refuse to weigh myself at the gym. I refuse to weigh myself at all and I hate when I go to the doctor's office and they put me on the scale. He always wants to know how his weight fluctuates and if he gained weight on a work trip or vacation, but I just go off how I look in the mirror. So much simpler and less painful seeing the scale. Plus they are always different depending on which scale you use.

I confess that I can't wait for my niece or nephew to arrive in about a week or so, so I can cuddle the new baby and get all those new baby smells. I have some mad baby fever, but just can't right now. NO way can we afford another right now. And the thought of twins again. Yikes. No thank you. One set is perfect.

And that's all I have time for and what my brain can actually produce right now.

  1. I haven't felt the need to blog this week either. Maybe its the heat or the fact that i'm exhausted for some reason! I also don't weigh myself..like ever. It stresses me out and I'd rather go by how I look/clothes feel..so i'm right there with you on that one!

  2. How nice to sleep in and then get your hair done! Enjoy those extra hours :) And I never look at a scale either, I actually got rid of ours, I just go off how my clothes feel.

  3. I hear ya on the weighing thing. I starting stepping on the scale as soon as I stopped breastfeeding and although I know my body is building muscle back, it's painful to see the numbers go up

    1. Yes it is. I hate seeing the numbers rise and accept that even though I look thinner and my pants are at an even lower size, the scale could say I weigh more.

  4. I hate scales too! I like to go by how my clothes fit. Scales don't tell you what is weight and what is muscle but the zipper on your favorite pencil skirt will.

    1. That is what I do. Clothes are a better gauge for me. Haha, I love the last part.

  6. Ha! It took me forever to finish Gilmore Girls too! It's good though! I'm on Parenthood right now- also good!

  7. ahhh - there's nothing like the smell of new babies. Its magical.
    I hate the scale & wish I wasn't obsessed with the number. It makes or breaks my day. How messed up is that.

  8. I hate scales. The one at my Dr's office is way heavy... I was always 5lbs more there than I was at home or the gym or anywhere else, and of course that is your "official" weight on your chart. Ugh. Yeah to sleeping in tomorrow!!!! Enjoy every second!

  9. I hate scales too! I never weigh myself.. it's just not fun. Jealous of you getting to sleep in two hours tomorrow! I think it's the heat because I haven't had any motivation to blog either. New babies are definitely tempting but I am in the same boat with fear of having twins again. We can barely afford childcare now.. haha!

    1. It is never fun. We can barely afford childcare and diapers right now. I hate when they go up in diaper size and you get less per box. We have to buy them all the time, so I hate when you get less and buy more. Ha.

  10. Girl, I'm right there with you on the blogging thing... I have no desire to blog this week. Between the summer heat and being on holiday this last weekend, I'm just not interested!

  11. We're only four episodes in to OITNB season four...but I accidentally read a spoiler so I know something I really didn't want to know (and really don't want to happen!!!). Ugh. I'm watching The Walking Dead...but Michael isn't. When there's a show we don't both watch it takes me FOREVER to get through it. At least once football season starts I can sneak away while he watches games...ha! Michael and I are the same about weighing! We have a scale and he weighs himself every morning. I'd rather just look in the mirror. I might weight myself once every six months or something. And I swear at the doctor's office I'm heavier...which probably just means that's what I actually weigh and our scale is wrong (it was super cheap). :(

  12. I’m with you on blogging this week. I think, for me, it’s part motivation part not having any time. Jealous that you get to sleep in tomorrow! I am so beyond exhausted - I wish I could have a day to sleep in. Agreed on the scale. When I worked out and was looking for results, I measured myself instead. Scales aren’t good measures of progress - especially since you can lose inches and gain weight.

  13. Gotta love having extra sleep time in the morning!

  14. It’s hard to find blogging motivation in the summer! Schedules are so different and off. Okay wait…see Justin Timberlake again? You saw him before? That’s so awesome! Is it just as handsome in person? Yay for a new niece or nephews! That’s exciting.

  15. Girl i refuse to weight myself too. Just not worth the inevitable ugh. And the blogging just not in the mood as well. Our girls need to get it together!

  16. Don't worry, you're not alone on the scale thing. I don't ever like getting on the scale, haha. Yay for a niece or nephew!
