I Ate 4 Cinnamon Rolls.

It's 1:35 in the AM. I'm not a happy camper. You know why I'm not a happy camper? Because I should not be an AWAKE camper!! Thanks, Leia! My ridiculous dog likes to wake up in the wee hours (yes, this is the wee hour for me) to go potty. Do we take her out before bed? Yep. Does she still wake up every night, without fail? Yep. So, now I'm wide awake. Looking like this...
Lord help us all.
It is (was) February 3rd. I tried my best to "put my heart in it" like my dear old calendar page says, but today was just not the day. It felt like Friday. I needed it to be Friday. Big time. But I guess now it is.

Fatty Fatty 2 by 4!!!
The other night, Jamie was at a Memphis Tigers game with some people from work, and I came home to be a Fatty McFatterson Fatticus. Wanna know why? Because I had not 1! Not 2! Not 3! But 4 of my oh-so-deeeee-licious homemade Pioneer Woman cinnamon rolls. What the heck is wrong with me?
Pre-iced babies!

Post-iced beauties!

I mean seriously! What in the world is wrong with me?! I ended up justifying it by having a killer workout right after that, burning 300+ calories. And then I did 3 (yes 3) hard core work out videos/strength training yesterday. And I ate really well yesterday/today/February 3rd. So, you ask, "Abby, do you regret eating over 1,500 calories in cinnamon rolls in about 15 minutes?" H to NO! Should I have done it? Probably not? Did I work it off? Hopefully! I have learned my lesson though, and all of you listen to me now! When and if you make cinnamon rolls....get rid of them stat! I mean ASAP!!! You WILL eat them. You WILL kill your diet. And you WILL love it. The end.

Earlier today...
This was me before I went to work this morning.
What's wrong with me? Why in the world was I so chipper? That all changed pretty quickly because I'm pretty sure all 11 of my kids today didn't have ears. Out of 22 little ears, not a one worked. It was just "one of those days" that I am so glad is over and gone.

Baseboards:
Wednesday morning, I became Cinderella and cleaned all the baseboards.
Do they look awesome? Not particularly, but I did it really really fast and really just did it for my own sake. So if you come over, please comment on how white and shiny and beautiful our baseboards look. When I say I did it fast...I mean it took about an hour and 15 minutes ish. Now, to do that all in the morning before work (without showering. oops!), that's a lot of work! So yes, they look better, but no, it's not incredibly obvious *sad face*

Sad Day:
Stupid snowmageddon in Oklahoma has postponed my in-laws visit once again. My husband's family has planned on 2 weekends to come and visit us. The first one was in December, but the weekend they planned on coming was the weekend that my Grandma died. They still could have come that weekend since her funeral was on a Monday, but I knew that I needed to be home with my family that weekend. So, that trip was cancelled. As of this morning, the trip was still a "go!" But later in the day, reality hit my smart parents-in-law and they decided to reschedule. *insert another sad face* So that just means that third time's a charm and that the next time they try to come, it will be the best weekend of all! Hopefully it's soon, because I miss you guys!

Friday...I Thank You:
I guess it's officially Friday. Praise Jesus! It has been a really long week. But I'm going to make the best out of my day! Jamie and I are headed to the gym in *gulp* 3 hours....and then I think I just might use my Starbucks gift card and get something yummy and caffeinated before heading to school. I have a full day at work and then I get to relax! Come on, weekend!

I hope you all enjoy your Friday to the very fullest! Know that I love you! But know that Jesus loves you even more! God bless, my sweet friends!
