Fall might actually come!
It feels so nice outside. I'm wondering if we're actually going to get a fall this year, usually it only lasts 2 or 3 days. It's in the low 90s, and it's really funny to think of that as being 'cool', but it is compared to what it has been! When the babies wake up I'd like to go to the park or something, but we'll see.
The big girls were home from school sick yesterday, eew. They both woke up puking at 5am, then they slept half the day away. They felt better today so back to school they went! We did most of their make up work last night, so I'm hoping they don't have a lot of extra work tonight. They each had 2 teachers that didn't email me their missed assignments, so I'm HOPING that means they can make it up in class or didn't miss too much. Brittany has to go in early one day to make up a quiz, but her teacher said she MIGHT be able to do it in class if class is slow, so hopefully they can get that taken care of. Sad news is they missed their belt ceremony last night at karate. They are now green belts, woohoo! They'll get their new belt at their next class.
Hubby's big national certification thing at work is over. They don't find out until December if they passed but the assessors said they would be giving a very favorable report. You expect to get a few things kicked back and told to fix, but they only had one very minor issue (they were told to change the word "Officers" to "employees" on one file), so they are all excited that that was it. They also had a public meeting where people come in to say nice things or to complain, and not a single person came and complained. The place was packed and it was the largest attended meeting in the state for this type of assessment, and we're the smallest city in the state to gain this certification, so the assessors were impressed with their turn out. Hubby was happy because 3 people came to speak and mentioned him by name, as being a reason the police department is so great.
I need to start working out again, but I cant get motivated to get up and DO it. I'm not happy with how I look or feel. Last year I didn't buy any new jeans because I wanted to wait until I saw if I lost weight before this winter. Well winter is fast approaching and I think I am heavier than I was last year, doh! I'm also not sleeping well and I think if I start exercising that might help some. We'll see if it happens. It NEEDS to. I really really wish I could go to a gym again. I really enjoy it and it motivates me more than doing it at home, plus the kids could play with some little brats in the daycare, lol. Larkyn would LOVE that! It's just too expensive and right now there is no wiggle room in the budget :P
