The best thing since popcorn.......
I bought some of these after watching the biggest loser last week.
I am on a mission to lose 30 more pounds by May, I have lost 14 since the 1st of the year. Eric and I are going on a cruise in May for our 10 year anniversary...I am so excited. We will leave San Diego and stay a day in Cabo and a day in Ensenada and then back to San Diego, it is for 6 nights....I have never been away from Savannah for more then 2 days....kinda nervous about that.
Anyway these are great, so fast and simple and it is so much better for you then boiling veggies and losing most of the nutrients. I am a huge veggie lover. I would not however cook meat or fish in them like they say you can, don;t know why, I just have this huge phobia of cooking meat in the microwave, and it just doesnt sound good either. So go get some they are great....

I am such a tight wad.....LOL
I finally broke down on Friday and bought a new phone because my cell phone has been missing for at least a month and a half now.....and of course guess what Eric found yesterday...my phone!!
Isn't that the way things always work, at least for me....

Have a great week!!!

Savannah has been in school for almost a year now.... I love her school, she loves her school. We have had a couple issues there but it all boiled down to miscommunication. The school is at the church we attend, and she loves learning about God and singing about God, she can tell you stories forever about the bible.
They are moving in June. It will now take me a half an hour out of the way to take her then a half hour back, where as now her school is right in between Joshs school and my work. There is a guy I work with and him and his wife opened a day care and they have been telling me to check it out. The only thing that is stopping me from sending her up the road to the new school is that extra 45 minutes to an hour sleep I would lose. And when my normal nights sleep is 5-6 hours sometimes i really need that sleep.
I am just afraid she will maybe get depressed and miss her friends. Am i thinking too much into it, or should I just move her to another school?

Eric and I went out last night to Azul Lounge to see his friend play, he plays the guitar in a jazz band...I had a blast. I learned though that no matter how much money I may have, I would still be eating at Applebee's and Chili's...etc....
I ordered a drink 12.00, I also got an appetizer of grilled shrimp, 16.50. The shrimp came on a big plate with 4 shrimps and a bunch of sauce scattered....Where's the rest....LOL
So here are a couple pics of our night out.






Yesterday when I got home from work with Savannah, Eric called her into the back room, she came back out and handed me a 16" ponytail....I just stared, I was in complete shock.....Eric has cut his hair. I think with my little comments here and there, and his friends that came over last weekend, telling him they wished he would pass out cause they would cut his hair off, it finally happened....
Here are some pics...

Friday night Savannah went to a birthday party at her favorite place ever Chuck E Cheese....
Saturday she started dance class, it was tap week, (she alternates ballet one week tap the next) we are not allowed to take pictures though so this pic is the only one i got.
Then Sunday me and Savannah spent the day at the mall.....We went to the museum in the mall (I know strange place for a museum..i think so anyway). The theme this week is patterns. We had a blast...
Here are some pics

OK, here is the thought that has been taking over my brain for a few days now....
Josh's girlfriend has been hanging around our house now for at least 3 months, in the beginning it is normal for someone to be shy even intimidated by their girlfriend/boyfriends parents. I am also (so I have been told) an intimidating looking or mean looking person. And alot of my friends have even told me I thought you were mean or stuck up and I am not, but I guess the look on my face makes me to appear this way. Anyway, when she is at our house and we are going out to dinner or to the movies or where ever it is we are going we take her with us, like last night she was at the house and we were going to Applebee's for dinner. Josh even said thanks mom after we were done eating, she has NEVER once said Thank you...
I bought her a concert ticket so she could go with Eric and Josh to an upcoming concert...nothing. For Christmas i bought her a little something, and nothing. For her birthday I bought her a cake and some earrings, and nothing...
Should I expect others to be as I would want my kids to be?
A little about her background, her mom is a single mom, works 2 jobs to give her the things she wants and to keep a roof over her head, she is hardly ever home. To me she buys her things out of guilt for never being there, instead of spending quality time with her she takes her shopping. Her mom now has a boyfriend so that takes the little bit of time they did have together away. Her mom will even call me and ask if she can come over cause she is going out and doesnt want her to be by herself. Her mom has never even said thank you to me, even for something like that. So I think maybe she never instilled in her the manners she should have towards others. But then on the other hand I think she is 16, its just common curtousy that she should know by mow.
Would you say something, am I over thinking this? Should I say something to Josh, so he can tell her, should I not bring him into this and make him feel like he is the middle man. What would you do?

Well after checking in to several diffent things for Savannah to join...such as baseball and soccer etc...etc... (all those she has to be 5 to play, soccer she can join in the fall so we might put her in that then (Eric wants her to play soccer and although I despise the game I am sure I will enjoy just because she is playing)...anyway I decided on dance class...She will start this Saturday, and I can't wait she loves to dance around the house so I think this will be perfect. She will alternate one week ballet one week tap. I will take lots of pics to post next week.
I also took her down this weekend and had her hair cut, Eric doesnt like it but oh well, I told them to cut what they had to to get rid of the split ends and they cut a good 5 inches off...it'll grow back.

This weekend was so windy, yesterday I got up to go to the store and was in for a surprise when I saw Joshs basketball thing had fallen over on my van good thing the window didn't break it came close to it, I just have a big dent from the pole now....Wonderful!!!

Well hope you all had a great weekend, anyone go to any good superbowl parties...This is the first year in 4 or 5 years that we didn't have a party, Eric was still upset that the Cowboys lost....CRY BABY !!! SO i just cooked for us and we stayed home...I thought the halftime show was real good. And even though I lost 20.00 I am glad the Giants won...

Well have a good week!
