Crash And Burn

I'm about to call it a night. Not feeling too well. Not sure if my body is in shock from actually working out tonight or if it's simply from the Hot Tamales I gobbled down during our family game of Old Maid. The two kinda cancel each other out, don't ya think?

I'm a little doomed because I have 4 boxes of candy sitting around. Leftovers from our trip to the movies. We didn't actually eat any of the candy during the movie - we stuck to popcorn. So now it's all  just here tempting me. I've done pretty good though - we've had it since Saturday and I didn't get in to it until today. That's a record for me, by the way.

Another item I'm happy about is the fact that there have been cupcakes in my house since Friday and I've only had one. Just one.

I am glad to have worked out tonight - it feels good. I'm gonna be SO sore tomorrow. I am weak, weak, weak! But any start is a good start, right?

In an unrelated note: my baby girl graduated Kindergarten! I remember when my niece, who graduates high school this year, had her Kindergarten graduation and I thought it was a bit silly - I mean, really, what are they graduating from? They have another 12 years of school left! But then I had M and I've changed my  mind - it isn't silly at all, it's awesome!

It really was such a special day. I don't know, it just seems like it's kinda a big milestone - a first grader! A FIRST GRADER!  Definitely something to celebrate. And she had a blast - they did a big ceremony. They entered in to the march, performed a song and then she got to walk across the stage and get her "diploma". It was so stinkin cute! We made a day of it - went out to lunch, decorated the house, had some cupcakes and got her a little graduation gift.

Tonight, when I was putting her to bed I was telling her a story about a boy who catches the moon to win the heart of the girl he loves. As I was tucking her in I whispered "The boy that wins your heart better bring you the moon." and she laughed and said "No one can get the moon!" and then she looked really worried and said "What if I'm all grown up and no one is able to get it?"

I didn't tell her this but that would be okay with me...
