Trainer and Good Times

Tonight I meet with my Personal Trainer... My husbands BFF. He is a purple belt in karate and has recently became a fitness guru of sorts again. He dropped at crap ton of weight in the last six months and now he's gonna help me! I am excited!

Then I'm gonna come home and get cleaned up to go out tonight with friends! Yeah! I'll make sure to take pictures!

Have a great night!

What I Should Be Doing

Well. It is 6:30 in the morning on Friday. I am supposed to be working out. But since I decided to go for a "ride" yesterday, that isn't possible. Let me explain.

I live in Indiana. Don't like the weather ...wait...wait...wait..ok, that better? It is the middle of February and we are currently dealing with flood warnings and tornados. But yesterday we got thrown just a dab a snow. Just enough to make the sidewalk slick. Slick enough that as I went to step off to go around to get back in my car , both feet went towards the heavens and I busted my ass. And twisted my knee. And put my thigh in one great big ole knot. It's lovely, really. Gotta love heating pads...

Welcome!

Hello! I don't know who all is going to read this. I don't know who all cares. But I shamelessly need friends. And since I am more available to be at home than not, it is better for me to find great blogger friends right, RIGHT! Let me tell you, there are times that I have laughed until I literally peed myself at some people (umm, Boobs, Injuries, & Dr Pepper - Make sure I pee every time before I check it out JUST IN CASE.)

So, with that , let me introduce myself. I am Rachel. I am 27. I own (co-own) a cleaning business. We started up last May, and have grown to almost 40 customers. It is just my co-owner and I working (which will be many interesting blogs I'm sure. LOL.) We are working about 25 hours a week. Not too bad.

My DH is 29. He is the maintenance supervisor at the apartment complex we live in. It is a 44 unit single story property. Not too bad usually. Most of the "trouble" happens on the weekends, of course. He really has always wanted to operate his own lawn care and landscaping business, so we are looking into getting that started. He has been behind my business 100% so I really want to help him out any way I can.

Our oldest son is 8. He is in first grade. He has made the A/B honor roll both 9 weeks this year, YEAH! He enjoys playstation and his dad. He is really into his dad right now.

Our youngest son is 5. He is in preschool. He has been in speech for 2 years now. He had ear infections a lot as an infant that affected the way he heard the way words were said, so we are re-teaching him language now. (in a nutshell) He enjoys boxing and wrestling and cuddling with mommy at night. (And I love it)

We have a dog, Bandit. He is a Boxer. He is 5. A big old baby. Unless there is a strange person at the door. Then he barks like a BIG dog. Scares the crap out of people.

Then at Halloween time we acquired a stray cat, Abigail. We don't know how old she is for sure. Not much older than a year, if that. She likes meowing, and clawing the couch and carpet, and LOVES catnip. Oh yeah, and staring down the dog when he is in his cage.

So, that is us. I will be posting regularly, so keep checking in! Feel free to leave comments, again, I, sniff, need, sniff, friends, sniff.

Have a Great Night!!!
