Fencing, AWANA, and Camp

DS starts fencing again tonight. I think he's excited. But it's a bit of a schedule pain for us since we have to have dh leave work early to get him there at 6. I have to be at AWANA at 6. DH gets out of work at 6. *sigh* I hate having scheduling things that makes it seem like somebody is being inconvenienced. But ds really loves fencing and it's the only place I know of around here where you can do it. So we'll suffer through for a couple of months.

AWANA is starting up for the first time in a month. I'm a little bit excited about it - surprisingly since I've spent the last 3 months dreading Wednesday nights. Things are getting better though.

Took the church kids to camp over the weekend. It was fun - even though it rained all of Saturday so they didn't get to do all the fun activities that were planned. But it snowed all of Sunday morning so that made up for it.

It's weird for things to be slowly coming back to their regular schedules. I'm looking forward to it and dreading it all at the same time.

Oh and my sister is getting married. Tentatively scheduled for Aug. 16th - that gives me 8 months to lose 40lbs. I won't be fat in another wedding photo! I hope not anyway. I did manage to exercise this morning. And I've eaten 900 calories today. I need to look up and see what my max calories should be for a day to lose weight. I think it's 1500 but it might be 2000. It might be 1200 and then I'm screwed since I haven't had dinner yet.

Hopefully I'll keep exercising and hopefully I can lose 5-6lbs a month. We'll see.

Now I've got to try and get my kids to get homework done. I hate homework. DD's teacher asked me if I wanted her to stay after school on Monday and Tuesday to do homework with the other first grade teacher. I think it's a great idea but dd is not happy about the idea so we'll see. It's not worth it to have her go if she's just going to be pissy the whole time she's there and not manage to get anything done anyway.

No countdown today - I can't think of anything I want to be counting down!
