Where is the week going?

I can't believe it is Wednesday already.
Workin it Wednesday. Not to be confused with workin it Friday. :D

My Mother's day was NICE! I did find my mom a really awesome pair of earrings that I was secretly hoping she didn't like so that *I* could have them. :) I would have bought her something else to replace it. I even tried them on...shhhhh. LOL. I really want those earrings.

The kids and hubby did good...they had a cute card, the kids had stuff they made at school and they went in and bought me a facial gift certificate at the spa. So it was all very nice. :) I really love the stuff the kids make me more than anything. Seriously I cherish those.

IDOL...I PREDICT DAVIDS IN THE FINAL. Just sayin...again...for the record. :)

In honor of wordless Wednesday (which I obviously have no concept of wordless) and in honor of my Weight Watchers weigh in tonight...here is a picture of me TWO years ago. What a great reminder of how far I have come since starting WW this past January.


and here is me December 07, right before joining. Probably the only picture of me with my glasses on too...and Bubba's looks so happy to be standing next to his Jolly bowl of Jelly Belly Momma. :)


Well...me now is me in the header...so YES, I have come a long way and it feels great.

*ah*

Happy Mother's Day to me. Actually Merry Christmas from my brother-in-law, that I just decided to use today. So Happy Mother's Day to me. Thanks bro.

I love getting pedicures. Something about sitting in that big massage chair, listening to the foreign language flying through the air a mile a minute. Probably trashing my gift certificate because it had no date on it and they couldn't tell me the damn thing is expired (which I think should be ILLEGAL, don't tell me money expires). Probably talking about how they can get out of letting me use the gift certificate when it didn't even have a to: - from: filled out.

Thankfully they let me use it and now, I have pretty toes. Doesn't it make you smile?

Me, It's all about ME...

Yesterday I was reading a blog that I love Calicobebop and as I defended her right to think of herself; I got to thinking about myself.

Can we really think of ourselves TOO much?

My answer to that is typically NO. We NEED to take care of ourselves too. Not just everyone else and their needs.

Lately I have been so wrapped up in my own yummy craziness! I have been mooping a little this week negatively thinking about what my kids and hubby probably WON'T do for me this weekend. My boss came in this morning and asked if I had big plans for the weekend, or was it a surprise from my kids?

*hmph*, I said. "yeah, probably, whatever"

LOOK AT ME all feeling sorry for myself when I really don't know what they are going to do.

In all this wallowing in my own self pity, I have neglected the fact that I also have a mother that deserves someone to think about her. Geez Stac, get your head of your ass armpit.

So I need to think of some ideas to get for my mom. Flowers are out, since she has her own flower business.

Dealing with all of these flowers and landscaping, she could use a manicure, but it won't last an hour.

I think she still has a massage gift certificate from her birthday LAST YEAR. So that is out.

So what are some suggestions? Please help me out....
