Anyone doing anything fun this weekend?

I had 2 doughnuts yesterday. No self-control.
It's okay! I've had something bad like every single day this week! :-/

My diet has been really strange recently.
I'm going to Painting with a Twist tomorrow! I'm excited, but I need to make sure they don't catch on to my non-drinking.

This week has gone by SO fast.
Matt and I are going tonight to file our taxes, if we can claim my mom we will get over 3k back so I am excited to see the outcome.
My detox isnt technically over until Sunday but I think we will go out to dinner tonight and I will probably eat whatever I am in the mood for which may not be on the detox. Overall I am happy with it I am craving more veggies and way less sugar. I havent had caffeine (other than 1 cup of green tea every few days) in 3 weeks and its not nearly as hard as I thought.
Its national chocolate cake day, so our companies fun committee is bringing around a cupcake for everyone.
I had a 16 hour day yesterday (left my house for work at 5:30am, got home at 9:30pm -- gah!!!) so I'm feeling a whole lot of lazy right now.
Last night, though, I had a new client - a 15 year old girl whose doctor recommended Pilates for her. She has a genetic condition and they're hoping the Pilates helps her avoid surgery. She was so sweet and her mom was so happy/grateful -- made me remember why I don't mind long days at work and why I love my job!!!!
BL - that's great news on the taxes. We're still waiting on DH's W2 from work and his form from school.
Deepthi - Our friends didn't want to spill the news yet, so at one gathering when they were in their early pregnancy they drank juice from a wine bottle so no one would catch on.
Bio Good Times
We are going to a friend's house tomorrow night for dinner. So this week, DH has already been telling the guy that I have a sinus infection and am on antibiotics. So no drinking for me.
We had to build it up in advance like that because I am a TERRIBLE liar. Like, I start smiling whenever I have to stretch the truth. Very inconvenient during my teenage years.....
This is me. I'm hoping to keep it together. We had a party last weekend with this group and pretended to pour vodka into my glass. They probably won't even notice and I'm just being totally self absorbed about it.

Oh.Em.Gee. I'm so glad it is FRIDAY!!
So I'm wearing my new jeans and new riding boots today. My first time EVER!! I'm loving it so far, but definitely different for me. My only concern is the jeans are loose, but the smaller size was too tight.
Anyway...
BL, good luck with your taxes.
Deepthi, have fun painting!
The first time I tried this "look", I was hooked. I love it. I'm sure you look fab!
I argued and argued and ARGUED against going to boot camp this morning, but Mack made me, and of course, I'm glad I did. It was stations, and lots of things that work well with aggression. I don't know why, I'm just feelin' kinda rage-y this morning.
I kind of agree with this. Also, to all those people who say that DISD is closing schools because of the mismanagement of a couple of years ago: they're closing schools that are older, that have costly repairs. They have newer schools that can absorb these populations and don't have to repair bathrooms daily, etc. Stop pointing fingers at DISD and saying that they're doing a bad job at educating those kids. Why not get up off your keisters and go volunteer time. Oh, yeah, you're too busy. Ugh. I get so frustrated with people saying education is bloated and saying that my salary is too high.
This weekend is Mel's birthday weekend so I will have a house full of teenagers tomorrow through Sunday. Ben said he is going to stay with his BFF. I told him I don't blame him. I am both glad and sad that this will be Mel's last slumber party.
Last night's Healthy Meal of the Week was a great success. It was the chicken rollatini with zucchini and mozzarella. I served it with a salad and long grain and wild rice Ricearoni. It was yummy. Even Ben liked it. So I'm 4 for 5 on my healthy meals so far. I think I might try the light Asian peanut noodle one next.
I stayed in bed and extra hour today so that means 2 hours at the gym tomorrow. But it was worth it.

Just do it!
Ah you're too sweet! Thanks so much!
This thing is so freakin cool!

Yes, it is!
That's pretty neat.
I have so many students who are out/have been out with various ailments. I am so paranoid about getting sick that I'm thinking about taking a day off just to not be around them.
Stephie, this recipe for peanut noodles is so so good. My mom requests it at least once a month sometimes more.

Bri - I saw that I while ago and while its a little cheesy I totally would have tried it when Matt and I were long distance.
Totally cheesy, but kinda romantic.

Brianna, I forgot to tell you yesterday, thanks for offering to let me borrow your dress!
I think I'll try to go find one this weekend.
With All the Trimmings
Just do it!
I saw that on Pinterest and wanted it!
It seems like a cute idea, but I wonder if someone would get annoyed at first hearing it as they slept.
