Am I crazy?? Maybe don't answer that.

     Am I crazy or just motivated?  I started boot camp on Monday and today was my second day of every Monday Wednesday Friday for the next 4 weeks.  It is 6;15-7:15 am and it is hard and I sweat a lot but it feels good.  Gone are the days of working out and not being sore the next day.  I want that back and I would like a few muscles back as well.
     5 am is really early and I think I may be a bit crazy to be up at that time but getting breakfast and reading a book before I go to the gym is nice.  Then I am awake and I feel good.  It is extra nice when everyone is still sleeping when I get home!  I can relax and start my blog instead of staying up to late and doing it then.
     It is another dreary day and looks like it will rain again but that is okay, my kids have rubber boots and splash pants and we are going to get outside and play.  We went for a walk on Monday just after it had rained and Anthany took a ice cream bucket and Alex took a cup and they found every earth worm that was swimming or crawling along the side of the road and brought them back to our house.  I asked them to spead them out on the grass in the yard before we came in the house so they wouldn’t die and they could did tunnels in the dirt.

       I am tired of having to pick up after the boys all the time especially Anthany, he is 6 he can clean up his own room.  So when I ask him to clean his room and he says he is finished whatever toys are still on the floor get put into the take away bucket.  On Saturday he can choose to buy the toys back with some of his allowance or he can do without them.  Every toy costs .25 cents.  It will also cost him .10cents for every piece of clothing I have to pick up of his floor.  Same goes for clothes and toys laying around the house.  I have had to find the “thing” that gets him and makes him want to put his stuff away and he is really interested in money right now and buying things so for him spending his allowance on stuff like dirty clothes and toys left laying around is the “thing” that get him.

     We went to Edmonton yesterday and looked around for furniture for out new house and also at some trailers.  It was a long day especially for the kids, sitting in the van so much wasn’t fun for any of us but especially no fun for my 3 active little boys.  There was a lot of whining and crying and bugging and where are we going nows coming from the kids but the was one thing that was more annoying than all that.  It was the YETI (from star wars) voice that Brian downloaded onto the GPS.  Every time the GPS was giving us directions it was a yeti voice in yeti language and I didn’t have a clue what it was saying.  It was just a bunch of grunts and noises that Brian was trying to decipher.  Must be a guy thing, he thought it was awesome.  I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, this is the same guy who brings the GPS just so he can take a different route than it tells him to and he can argue with it.

      Wow how lucky and I, 8:20am and the house is still quiet.  Guess I should consider getting Anthany up for VBS that starts at 9:00.
     Have a good day everyone.
