A Case of the Blahs!!!

A lazy cold spring saturday finds me feeling frustrated because there are things I should be doing but don't want to.  I got off to a real good start this am by exercising (I am so proud of myself for not missing once yet)  I have the Book of Mormon on a DVD so I can read and listen to the narration while I ride the eliptcal machine.  So I got 30 Min. of scripture study done and then I came upstairs, drank my nutrimeal and read two articles from the new Ensign we just got.  I showered,dressed, put in a load of laundry and left to run some errands and was home 20 minutes later and could care less about the errands and feel totally out of gas.  For one thing I CANNOT believe it is saturday already.  I just got through Easter Sunday!!!!!  I have stayed really busy this week working on Usana and educating myself to be able to work the business better.  When I got home today here was the second check for the month.  This really has potential and we are sitting on a Gold Mine but I can really appreciate people's hesitation an reluctance to even listen.  If they listen they can't help but see the vision. Bud's Dr. took him off three more meds this week.  There is no doubt it is having a positive effect on our health.  This morning Mollie ha me laughing my head off.  I was unloading the dishwasher and as usual she was right beside me.  Bud was out trimming the raspberry bushes when all of a sudden we both heard his jeep start up.  She put back her head and just howled like a baby and then ran downstairs to the door and barked her head off.  I called him and told him what had happened and of course he turned around and came back to get her.  He opened the door and she shot like  white tornado thru the garage and jumped up into his jeep ready to go.  He had been on his way to Mc Donalds to bring us home a breakfast burrito.  He likes to surprise me on sat ams.  I told him I didn't want one as I had just drank my nutrimeal but of course he brought one anyway and I cut a tiny piece off and gave him the rest.   Are you bored Yet???  I need to go fold a batch of laundry and decide what to fix to eat and probably should attempt the rest of the errands. Poor Kristen has really fond the perfect dog!!!!!!  Except it poops and pees (in the house)  I keep telling her to just give her time and she will get used to a new family and settle into a routine and I hope it works soon as she doesn't need any more stress in her life.  I wish I could get excited about spring and summer.  All I see is work!!!!  We did the pine needles raked up  and Bud had some Samoans come and cut down one of the trees by the hot tub this am and that will help!!  We want to get rid of the hot tub and use that space for a fire pit or just more patio space.  Someone out there please send me a dose of SPRING FEVER!!!

oh mom....your life sounds so nice and relaxing compared to mine right now, but I know my time will come. I am proud of you for being faithful with the exercising! Between that and Usana, you will live to be 100 at least :)
Don't get overwhelmed with all the spring cleaning and yard work. Just take one day at at a time and do a little each day.
I am happy that Bud is so good to you and Mollie...what a guy.
