Today I got 90 points. After 3 weeks of making dinner every night (even date night!! I'd make dinner for the kids, then we'd go out to eat) I treated the family to Pizza Hut. It was Delicious with a capital D. Before the challenge we'd eat out over any little thing. I'd have a bad day, or I didn't have food, or I just didn't "feel" like what I'd planned on. But during the challenge I realized those excuses still existed, I just didn't GIVE IN to them. Aha! I overpowered MYSELF and loved it. Tonight I gave myself a break and I also chose NOT to work out.
One more thing on the list of "things I learned" list. There were several nights that I was doing things for the challenge instead of spending the LITTLE time I have with my hubby. The downside of being so competitive. Next go 'round I won't do that. Its not worth it. Glad I realized it though and my hubby still loves me. Hope you are all still flying...keep posting...even though we're not really tracking.
oh yeah, and for Katherine, don't give up over spring break. My little 5 year old that was in HUGE trouble Friday night practically did my entire list on Saturday as punishment...only it was great because I was side by side with him and we got it all done and enjoyed each other's company. I killed 3 birds with one stone, (punishment, time spent together, got my own chores done!) The kids were home today too, so we did it again, only not as punishment, but as family time. Ha. It was great...AND I EVEN MOPPED MY FLOOR TODAY...so I should be done with my home blessing tomorrow!!!
