V-Day Is On Its Way

Last night J let it slip that he got me something for Valentine's Day. I have no clue what it is, but he was down right giddy about it last night and he "can't for Valentine's Day this year". Now, I love surprises but I hate knowing about them before hand because I can't stop trying to guess in my head what it possibly could be. I run through a million scenarios. Drives me batty. I'd rather not know for fear that I may expect this:

And get this:



Which I would love, LOVE, L.O.V.E., but you could imagine a slight feeling of let down.


Anywho, so all this speculating and wondering this morning made me realize something. This is my first, real live, 100% fur realz Valentine's gift. Seriously!
1. It's a total surprise that he picked out/planned out all by himself
2. I don't have to go buy it (here's the money for your present oh and uh while you're picking that up can you pick up C's girlfriends' gift while yur at it, thanks honey - yeah that SERIOUSLY happened to me one year)
3. His mom isn't calling him to ask if he wants her to order me some flowers, which I later have to go to the florist and pay for. Yeah, that happened multiple times... I'd rather get nothing.

So now I don't care if its a kindergarten-fingerpaint of a heart that say "I luv yu", I'm ecstatic! I'm used to going all out and buying or baking something sweet for my bf, spending all my time and energy on some creative something to make him feel special and I get nada in return. I suppose I knew I would get something from J. Definitely a foot massage and a dinner cooked for me. But now that I know he's gotten me something/doing something special for me (I really have no clue), I'm overly excited. It's quite pathetic.

My parents always did extra-sweet stuff for each other for Valentine's Day the whole time I was growing up (they're disgusting, it's adorable), so V-Day was always a little rough for me. I just got used to getting nothing and excepted my parents as the sickly-sweet, mushy-gushy, unnatural freaks of relationship nature they are. Now I'm one of those freaks... Yay for Valentine's Day!! <3

Copy Cat

I'm contemplating doing a Project 365 blog... Such a cool idea and I think it would be fun to look back and see how my year was in pictures :) And, yes, I'm copying off my sister's 365 blog . Opinions?

Almost Fainted Yesterday - Not. Cool.

Yesterday late morning I was sitting at my desk and I felt...funny. Then the "funny" feeling turned into ears ringing, hot flash, seeing stars, light- headedness . Scared the poo out of me. So I sat at my desk for a good 2 to 3 minutes with my head between my knees - or atleast as close to my knees as I can get right now - trying not to panic and make it worse. I never actually passed out/fainted but got pretty close. The thing that scared me the most though was that NO ONE AROUND ME NOTICED! Not that I wanted all kinds of people flocking over to me to see if I was ok , but would have felt a little better if one person would've atleast thrown me an "are you alright?". I hope I never go into labor at work, good grief. I'll be driving myself to the hospital and two hours later people will be going "Where's D?" That diva moment aside, I finally felt ok to stand up and walk to the breakroom to get a glass of water and then asked my boss to go d...

FAF: Another 1 Bites the Dust!

Starting weight: 166.4 Last week's weight: 163.8 Current weight: 162.8 Weight +GAIN / -LOSS this week: -1.0 Total weight lost: -3.6 Another week of weight loss! Whoop! Its not much but after another slow exercising week, I'll GLADLY take it! I'm very close [again] to what I weighed when I got knocked up with my pwecious little man so I'm feeling good about that fo' sho'... Working out this week has been rough. I haven't really made/had time for a good solid workout so I'm a little disappointed about that but...eh, I'll just keep squeezing them in there whenever I can and as much as I can. We have a gym membership over by my usual sitter so once she's off maternity leave, I'll be able to run to the gym at night before or after I pick up the monster. My diet this week has been unhealthy - not in what I've eaten, just the quantity. I've hardly eaten a thing! My dinner portions have been cut in half, if not more, so I feel that's a po...
