Probably not the best thing to have at midnight!
I really have to start doing something. This weight thing is getting out of control! Tomorrow is grocery day, so healthy meals all week! I am pulling out my LA Weightloss book and getting back on the wagon!
I have 79 days until I turn 40 - What can I accomplish in those 79 days?

I really need to do this more often...and some horn tootin'!
Holy Moley, it's been almost 2 months since I was on here!
Just a quick update: I am still running Tuesday-Friday every week. I do have to admit that last week the kids were out of school on Friday so I didn't run. We were very busy that day though! Does that count? :)
I had a great cake weekend! One Hello Kitty cake
and one xbox 360 cake.
I enjoyed doing them and have gotten some more referrals from these two orders. Need a cake? Contact me at CinderCakes!
I also want to toot my own horn - I fixed my own oven! I started to bake a couple of weeks ago and the oven wasn't working. (Boo!) After some encouragement from some Facebook friends, and a little investigation, I decided to get in the oven and pull out the ignitor. It was cracked. I then started price shopping. Since the oven is a Kenmore, I started at Sears. They wanted $81 for the part! Several online retailers including Amazon were much more reasonable at between $20 and $40, and that includes expedited shipping. Now for the cool part - I work for Habitat for Humanity and we have a ReStore (if you don't know what it is, you need to check it out!). A co-worker suggested I see if they had an oven they were going to junk - they did, the ignitor matched, they charged me 25 cents, and my oven was back working that afternoon!
OK, enough tooting, I must be off to bed - gotta run in the morning!
