Christmas Hangover

Christmas has come and gone and puked all over me.  It was fun and blessed and all of that, but L had his first little cold and he is still snotting all over me.  I was pretty much drunk for a week and it was all on beer so I have gained 5 pounds, and on top of that I seem to have hit a new low with the depression sitch, so I am sleeping 10 hours a night and then taking 2 naps a day.

I realize all of this sucks balls.  I have come up with a plan to overcome it.  I made another appointment with my counselor for next week, scheduled a hair appointment for Thursday (because that makes everyone feel better) and figured out a workout schedule.  The lovely Miss Josey left a comment on one of my previous rants about how fat I am and can't make it to the gym asking if I had any workout videos at home.  As soon as I read that, I was like, "Uh DUH only about a million dollars worth of them!  Why didn't I think of that and get my ass moving??"  So thanks Jos!  You now have the responsibility of being my ongoing motivation.

L is 9 months old today.  Can you believe that shit?  Slow the fuck down little dude!  Mommy is busy enjoying you being little!  Anyway, yesterday when I realized that he will be a year old in 3 months, it made me remember that I have the P90X dvd's, which set you up on a plan for 90 days.  So I started today!  It is kindof a lot harder than I remember it, but then again I haven't been working out like I used to.  So my plan is to continue the workouts and just do my best.  The last time I did them I made it through 48 days before I missed one.  It was awesome and all, but this time I have a 9 month old crawling around me while I do it, so I'm not going to be too hard on myself if I miss some days here or there.  But anyhoo, I am going to work my ass off (hopefully literally) until L's first birthday.  By then, it will be nearing spring and hopefully I'll be in pretty decent shape by then and can start running outside to train for the half marathon I have committed myself to! 

Why am I telling you this?  Well because I tell you everything duh, but also so that I can report back to you regularly on how it's going and keep myself accountable for the commitments I am making.  Also so when it's Easter and the chocolate covered marshmallows are back (Russel Stover only) then I can be like, what bitches?  I do P90X so BACK OFF!  (Snort, snort, inhale marshmallowy goodness.)

As for the snotty baby, not much I can do there except dry heave as I wipe his nose with my bare hand.
