In a sense...

...innocence.

I need to start living a healthier life. Parts of my life have been, more so, "in a sense," lately (horrible sentence construction/word usage... sorry). Such as, I've been cooking meals for supper during the week (usually just leftovers on the weekends), and eating out less. So that is good. BUT we've also had lots of chips and ice cream just laying around, because of cookouts and events. So that is not good. I tend to eat them during nap time. Also, on the "not healthy" side, we (myself, Justin, Seth, and whoever else happens to be around), tend to have that dreaded fourth meal once the kids are all in bed and we start to crave something tasty yet effortless. You might argue that getting in the car and driving to Sonic is more work than making a sandwich. And you might be right. But it doesn't matter. We still choose Sonic. Or Taco Bell. Or RODEO BURGERS (Burger King?). Ok, I'm starting to feel disgusting. That's the point though- it's not healthy. And I need to start choosing health over fat, grease, salt and sugar. And exercise. I need to do that.

Something I love: Coffee. I have finally realized why Kristian likes it so much. And I never thought I'd reach this point in my life, where I would actually enjoy black coffee. And where I can tell the difference between a good and bad cup. To me, they all used to be bad cups of coffee. I say I understand why Kristian drinks it, but that may not be true. I don't really know what his motives are. I assume he enjoys the taste, and it keeps him going through the day. That is why I like it. The "keeps me going" factor trumps all others though. Seriously. My coffee days are much better than my sans-coffee days. I tend to handle things better, over all.

Overalls are funny. I should get a pair. Just to have on hand.

Toy Story 3 at the drive-in tonight! Can't wait to see the excitement.

Going to Sonic and Taco Bell is like going to the neighbor's house for sugar; it is plenty easy. They're right there!

Burger King is a little further, but of course, once rodeo burgers are brought into the equation, ease is simply not an issue.

ps. re: overalls. Let's have another dress up party! I remember the picture comment you made on Facebook about me being the happiest sunflower you'd ever seen. There was a lot to be happy about, and now there's still more. :)

This is ridiculous I know, but did you cry/laugh at Toy Story 3? I sure did.

Costume party next Thursday?
And yes, toy story 3 was a roller-coaster of emotions :)
