really thats my fat percentage?

So today was an interesting day...it started out like a normal Sunday with church and friends and then we were off to the pool. Today me and a friend were going to get our measurements for this bootcamp that we signed up for (www.extremefittraining.com). we were told not to eat or drink anything two hours before. Have you ever been told not to eat for a certain time? Its very hard to do! Well anyways we get to the sports place where we get to go into this locker room and have every inch of our body measured. Let me tell you this is not very fun at all. Well then we move over to another line to get into this bean shaped contraption called the bod pod...which is apparently going to tell me how much a weigh and how much fat i have...once again awesome....best day ever. Its like going to the doctor and sitting there for an hour just to go in and have your finger pricked and a shot in the butt and them saying it wasn't that bad. So as we wait in line there are many conversations going on about the bootcamp, the teachers, the steroid guy running the bodpod and the door(please don't slam the door). We each go in and come out with a business card with our weight and percentage of fat write on it...I never thought one number could make me so sad:( Then we exit and are on our way to Milos to get a nice juicy burger. I know you are thinking what the hell you just said you were upset about a number so why not a salad or grilled chicken? Well since we are about to embark on a month of hard core working out and trying very hard to follow some healthy eating habits we wanted one last yummy meal before we start torturing ourselves. So on our way to Milos when guess what drama, drama, drama. You didn't think i could go one day with out drama did you? So i have to go home to deal with another episode involving crazy folks and my little sister. After taking her and dropping her off after the drama has died down I decide well if im going to eat a burger I better do it now since starting tomorrow im giving up fast food burgers and fries for a month. or until next weekend when I really want one:) Me and Cadence go through the milos drive through in wild wood and I get a combo. We pull up to the window and pay as the women hands me a bag with the food. I drive a few feet and Cadence starts demanding for a bite, bite, BITE! So I pull a fry out and have to hold in front of the vent so that it will not scorch her tongue. It finally cools down enough to hand to her. We are driving towards home at this point and I decide im going to eat a few fries myself. The first one is so hot it burns my tongue and I think why did I not hold it front of the vent for myself? So at this point we are driving through vestavia almost at Publix on 31 and I have had a few fries and then i find one that is rather cold and soggy so I hand it to my daughter who after all doesn't need to burn her self. Then i pull another hot fry of the top and pop it in my mouth. When I reach for another one....there all freaking cold as hell...you have to be kidding me. Those dirty milos workers. They just threw a couple of hot fires on top of alot of cold ones and gave it to me so I wouldn't notice until I was almost home and wouldn't turn around because I have a baby in the car and Damn it!!!!!

money does not grow on trees...right?

so i have been searchign for a money tree for years now and I can't seem to locate one. I know that it is out there somewhere because i know people that have to have one. I have more than one friend who don't have jobs and yet they still can spend money liek they are a freaking doctor. I also know some people who have jobs but i know they are not making as much as they are spending so it must be coming from there money tree. so i want one. I want to be able to buy something with out wondering if that is going to be the one thing to overdraft my account. I want to be able to see a nice pair of shoes and just purchase them with out checking two accounts first. By god I want to be able to take a trip with out having to save up for four years to do it. So if anyone out there has a money tree I would love a seed or something so i can grow one of my own:)

whats the point

what is really the point of all the masks and dancing around the real stuff? Why do we always feel a need to keep up the charade? I have been around a whole lot of people through out my life and I feel that I am a pretty good judge of character but my down fall is being to nice and wanting to see the good in people. But lately I have been around some people that well to be honest really frustrate the hell out of me! Why put on a smiling face if you dont mean it? I promise I can tell and it isn't making either of our time any more enjoyable. Also, if you don't like me then by god dont act like you do....I am a strong person and can handle it if you dont. I tried I really did to see the good but sometimes it isn't enough.

new subject

I also feel that I am a pretty good friend. I know how i want to be treated and try my hardest to treat my friends the exact way. With the one exception of having horrible "phone mind"(yes that is a made up thing i just came up with)...i just forget to call people back its not on purpose it just happens. But that said....over the years I haven't kept many of my once friends. They have all gone there separate ways by both my choice and theirs but sometimes I wonder if I am doing something to drive them away. If i am I assure you have no knowledge of what this is and would hope that someone would step up and say hey this is what you do that I do not like and I assure you that I would do everything I could to fix this. But seriously when someone invites me somewhere and I say im going then I dont just not show up and not call to advise of why.....if someone needs me to do something for them and there is nothing life threatening standing in my way then i do it.....I always love to listen and rarely feel the need to burden those around me with my own problems unless they want to here them, and I always want to give my very best for every special occasion in everyone of my friends life's. I know that it is what I would want so im sure they would want the same. But still over the years I haven't kept many of my friends.

These days I feel that I have a really great group of friends. People that I can count on...so if you are one of those people and have an issue with something i have done or do please inform me so i can change.

sorry for the all over the place post i just started writing and this is what you get:)

dreams

Have you ever met my puppy...Aston. I got him when I was in college living alone. My mom told be that I didn't need to get a dog because I could not take care of one. So guess what I did....Got a puppy!!!! He was great he went to all the parties with me as well to all of the parties at our house. He had a blast. I named him Aston after my dream car....since I dont think I will ever have one of those I will settle with my pup...he is just as cute!

what do i have to do

so as you know i started running about five months ago. I have since been in two 5ks and now can really say that the idea of running does not make me want to hurl myself off of a cliff. I have also been trying to watch what i eat....well sometimes anyways....and i just weighed my self and that was not a good idea. Whats a girl got to do to shed a few pounds around here.
I wasnt gaining weight before the running, i was just staying the same so i figured that by adding some excersice would do the trick. I have heard tommy say all the crap excuses and im not buying them. Like im gaining muscle and it weighs more than fat and that I am drinking more water now and that is adding water weight...blah blah blah. I just want to lose a few pounds im not asking for a huge number here just a few freaking pounds. I have not lost anything in five months. Still the same. if anyone has any suggestions I am open to all of them at this point.
