TIME: Jan. 27-Feb. 2

Jan. 27th: I have been horrible!!!! True confessions: turned off my light at after 1 am!!!!! I always get like this when I have a project going, & truly, when else am I going to get a bunch done on that room?!?!?!?

Jan. 28th: I was up until 12:02! We worked in the bedroom until almost 10 pm, & then I puttered around doing other things that needed doing.

Jan. 29th: I was up until 1am. Was working on the room until 10:30, then Ruth started her very scary croup cough, so I stayed up to make sure she responded to the breathing treatment & the Ibuprophen I gave her. Thank the Lord, she did ok at that point.

Jan. 30th: FINALLY!!! SUCSESS!!! (or at least headed the right direction) 10:07!!!!!

Jan. 31st: Took sister to the airport in Denver. Didn't get home until almost mid-night. In bed 20 min or so later.

Feb. 2nd: On the night of the 1st, it was around 10pm, I think. On the 2nd, it was around 11:30-w/ no real good reason. These are the kinds of things I need to STOP doing to myself.

FOOD: Jan. 27-Feb. 2

Jan. 27th: Just realized as I sat down here to blog re. today, I never finished writing down everything I ate.

I have been getting plenty of exercise, as the painting is quite a workout!!!!

Jan. 28th: Journalled very loosely. I hardly ate anything until supper & even then didn't eat much. I was SO BUSY on that room. It is looking so good, though!!!

Jan. 29th: Didn't pay much attention today. I'm sick, the girls are sick & I was still working like crazy on the room.

Jan. 30th: SICK, so I just did not have the energy to journal.

Jan. 31st: Still sick-still no energy.

Feb. 2nd: (Feb. 1st-still sick & I forgot) Was SUPER BUSY ALL DAY. Left the house at 9am, & didn't return until 5 pm. Didn't journal my food at all. Had planned on picking up a journal at WW, but my day just couldn't get it squeezed in.

MONEY: Jan. 27-Feb. 2

Jan. 27th: Bought matching outfits at Gymboree for all the kids. Was thinking towards the US Embassy Visa appointment in Guatemala. But, I got them home, & the dress for Ana is way too short. So, I need to return them. Also, the outfit for Nathaniel doesn't seem dressy enough, in my opinion. $128!!!! Shocked me, as I have NEVER bought anything there unless it is on sale!!! But, I think I can find stuff I'm happier w/ for less.

Jan. 28th: Bought only groceries we needed.

Jan. 29th: Didn't go anywhere.

Jan 30th: Ditto above-well, except I did stop a Walgreens & buy NyQuil, since I have the WORST cold I have had in a long time.

Jan. 31st: Still sick. Bought groceries & a few things for our trip to Guatemala.

Feb. 2: Don't know what happened to the FIRST of FEB.... I just forgot all about any blog at all. Just spent money on a baby shower-most of which church will re-imburse. No-just remembered-spent a bit of money on hair stuff for the girsl & I. Oh, & I did return some of the clothes to Gymboree & got $58 put back on my CC!!!
(I did that on Feb. 1st)
