Think Pink hat on sale code: PINK20 |
Here I am, eating an amazing Fletcher's Corn Dog for breakfast. Monday was Madison's Fair Day from school so Oliver took the day off of work and we spent all day eating food, playing game, and riding rides.
By FAR the best fried food was the Fried Pumpkin Pie, even Oliver liked it, the breading really adds to the pumpkin.
Aiden was a huge fan of the kid rides, so glad we popped $10 bucks a spin on them LOL
I won a prize or two for the big kid, I mean I did have to beat her to do it so it's only fair I let her pick.
She rode bumper cars for the first time, spun around in a circle for most of it, might need to work on that life skill.
My friend told me to get the Mangonada at the Fruiteria in the food court, so so so good. It's like a fruit slush with a chili powder stick you eat!
No one would ride any of the scary rides with me, Oliver is scared of heights and Madison is, well, 6.
I got to finally meet this girl, Brittany, she helps Admin my weight loss groups and we've chatted daily for ever and ever. She was driving through Dallas on the way back to Louisiana and I talked her into stopping to meet me for lunch.
Aiden had his 18 month check up, he's 80% on weight and 90% on height and everything checks out just fine! He's really such a sweet boy, but when he's pissed, whoa. watch out! lol The other day we left to go to dinner and for whatever reason he did not want to get into his car seat, he screamed and screamed, he never does that, so Oliver made me pull over and we took him out to see if something was poking him. Of course he immediately stopped crying, little turkey.
Other than that I've just been swamped at work and trying to cut myself a little slack for not being able to do allthethings. Blogging has taken a backseat, just seems like every morning I have something I need to do, kids dr appointments, teacher conference, etc. My oil in my car needs changed, like last week, and it smells funny like a spoiled sippy cup is hiding in there. I rolled down the windows and promised myself I would find it today ;)
I even considered dropping my weight loss challenge groups on FB, I just felt like I didn't have time to dedicate to doing them, but of course God laid it on my heart in the form of messages from those who've gotten so much out of it. Then, as there usually is with a group of women, drama. I'm sure there are rumors floating about, just remember to form your own opinions, when people are angry they tend to scream their side. I will not go into detail, but I will say that I did what I did for the good of the participants. The reason I do these groups is because I want to provide support and knowledge to those who want it and I'm not about to let some petty girl drama ruin that, I'm too old to respond to that kind of junk. I swear, being a women is hard, being around groups of women is even harder.
I am so glad you didn't cancel the challenge--I am so excited to do my very first skinnymeg challenge:) And even more excited that Val is my leader!!! Looks like a fun fair day!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Thank you for not canceling the challenge groups! I've already gotten so much motivation from the group already and the challenge hasn't even started!
ReplyDeleteOn my desk at work, I have a quote taped.. "You can do anything, but not everything." I have to look at it a couple of times a day, lol.
ReplyDeleteGlad you didn't cancel the challenge. Excited to start my first one on Monday and even more excited to have YOU as my leader!! Suzanne
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you didn't cancel the challenges, I love them! And you make so much money on them, would be a shame to miss out on that *eye roll*. What is it about the internet that makes people lose their ever lovin minds? I appreciate you giving so much of your time to others for nothing in return - I know personally you've helped change 2 lives for the better (and who knows how many through us??)
ReplyDeleteI hope this doesn't deter you from doing future ones because I couldn't afford to be apart of this one after dropping to a single income :( but I really want to be apart of the next one and hope the the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteI'll sponsor you for the next group, just remind me :)
DeleteBless your heart! This made me cry!!! Seriously you are too sweet!

DeleteDo any of the proceeds from the sale of the ThinkPink hat go to breast cancer research?
ReplyDeleteHow can I find your weight-loss groups on fb?
ReplyDeleteSo totally random... But I noticed you called the little guy "turkey". Is this a Texas thing? I've never heard anyone call someone that before until recently. One of the employees at the gym daycare and my oldest call each other that. They will literally yell it across the gym when they see each other. It's pretty funny to see. And now my younger kids are catching on to it. hahaha
ReplyDeleteI should mention to that we moved to North Fort Worth area about a year and half ago. And until we moved here I hadn't heard it. :)
DeleteMy Mother has always used the word turkey instead of a cuss word when she was referring to someone.
DeleteMegan, those kind of women that you were talking about (which btw I have no idea what happened) given women a bad name. Seriously who needs that kind of drama! Leave it at home. 😉
ReplyDeleteSquirrel---this has nothing to do with ur above blog post...just wanted to say that I recently ordered and rec'd the red hot tunic from Ollie Marie and 😍😍😍😍😍 I. Love. It!!!! So so cute and so so comfy!!! Thanks! Love your blog and boutique!!!👍🏻
ReplyDeleteOh shoot...my emojis don't show...its heart eye smiley face and then thumbs up ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis is my first challenge, and I'm so happy to have you as my leader!!! So I'm very thankful that you didn't cancel - I'm ready! I had read that there was a chance that I'd have to time a mile walk/run/jog the first week, and since both of my kids have bronchitis, I did it yesterday afternoon and then bam saw this morning where I'd have to do that! I was just so worried that I'd end up getting sick with what they have and not feel like it. However, I am feeling that this morning. <---Yes, that's bad. But, I haven't worked out in over a year, unless you count evening walks with the family! Anyways. I'm SO excited and thrilled to get this started! Yay for not canceling! And yay for you eating all the foods! :-)
