Coming Up With Something

I prescheduled this post since I'm still at the hospital...

spring vegetable garden
I can dream about this garden, can't I?
We've been working hard. In the morning before the kids wake up, and after dinner. My kids have even been helping. I know. They must be host bodies for parasitic aliens. It's the only explanation I've got.
Miss wants flowers for the lemonade stand she mans every year.

Mr. Survival wants to save money.
I tend to buy a lot of expensive produce.
I don't buy junk food.
Lately though, he's been finding convenient excuses to 
"swing by the store" 
and my house has junk food again.
So, I am no longer saving money by buying expensive produce.
Hehehe.

Molly's garden

I'm nasty and I just like to play in the dirt. 
 Beansprout? He's what my brain should be. 
 Six.
We like to play in the dirt and watch what comes up.

Beans are Up

    Hope all is going well at the hospital. I like to play in the dirt too!

    I am hosting a Small Change Challenge to kick off Summer with a healthy start and drop a few pounds I have gained. Stop by and read about it and see if you want to join. There is something about doing things like this with a group that I find energizing!

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

I Found True Happiness

It feels like I've become a detached voice, writing but not feeling on this blog.  I'm living a lot of things that don't fit neatly into my bloggable ownership file. Even now, I've spent an hour with this tab open to write a new post and I've done absolutely everything else possible.  For once I can't put a finger on what I'm feeling.  I don't fit into any definable box. On one hand, I'm spending an hour in therapy with Chickadee and another hour round trip three times a week. Mr. Survival is fighting off unemployment blues. We cannot shake things up and have me go to work. I'm not going to go to FitBloggin'11 . But, on the other hand, Chickadee is STANDING in the stander for minutes instead of seconds! Chickadee is grasping things momentarily for the first time in eighteen months. I'm so in love with Mr. Survival it's unbelievable. We are tighter as a family than we ever have been. I'm stressed and frustrated.  I...

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...
