Cruise time

Bahamas cruise in 52 days. Debating if I should Google how to lose 50 pounds in 6 weeks or how to feel skinny and rock it in a fat body...this thought process started with swimsuit shopping. Maybe I'll just wear jeans and sweatshirts the entire time. Also, for the record, I'm more excited for the one day we'll be spending in Disney World after the cruise then the four days on the cruise and in the Bahamas and yes you can quote me on that, that is all.

My Weekend (or at least the first half)

I feel like some weeks, the only thing keeping me going is knowing I have the weekend. And because of that I try to have a good mix of relaxing yet entertaining things going on. This week I was just so tired. I got home Friday and literally felt I could have fallen asleep at 7:00. But that was not an option. Me and Sam decided to keep it low key and since we had a baby-shower the next day went to Babies-R-Us for the gift. Now I'm not sure how many childless people read this (well let's be honest I'm not sure how many people in general read this) but have any of you childless people ever stepped foot in there? Well, in my entire life I never have. Of course I've seen the baby aisle at Walmart and even Toys R Us and I thought we were just walking into a slightly bigger selection then that. No, no it was like the size of a normal Toys R US, let's just say I walked out of there very traumatized for all the items needed for a baby. I think I pushed back what was already something in the very, very distant future after that small trip. We then watched a Red Box movie and called it a night. Saturday was the nice mix of productive and relaxation. I decided to get my behind out of bed by 8:00 to hit the gym. I told myself if I did that I didn't have to feel guilty if I wanted to watch movies the rest of the day. I was home alone and still had two movies left from the Red Box. The next thing I'm about to say, please don't judge. I was not a believer before and made fun of people that have turned into me. Well, I'll just say it. I watched the Justin Bieber movie...not once..but twice and actually enjoyed it, well obviously. I even cried three different times during it. I know, I know. I've already given myself the lecture. No worries, this isn't to the extent of Kyle Korver and never would be, I can now just see where everyone is coming from. Later tonight me and Sam went to the baby shower and after that I went with a group of friends up the canyon for a bonfire and hotdog/marshmallow roast. It made me very excited for summer nights. It was good temperature with a jacket, the moon was pretty and magical hearing the roar of what is supposed to be a small creek, now turned river. During the winter I forget how wonderful summer is, especially at night when it stays lighter for longer and you don't have to worry about driving home in the snow, I'm definitely excited. Well, that's been my weekend so far, we will see what Sunday brings.
