A quick hellooooooooooo...I am still alive!

I wanted to let you all know that yes, I am still alive.  I have at least 2 blog posts started, but not completed (and that doesn't include the list of blog post ideas I have that I think is now a mile long), I just need time to finish them.  Time....ha, ha, ha.  That is so funny!  I am now getting up between 5:15 and 5:30 am (yes, me the anti-morning person) to work out before getting ready for work.  Then dinner and family time in the evenings, and a sprinkling of facebook time to keep my sanity.  So that puts me to bed usually between 10 and 11 these days (yes, I am already late tonight - I will need coffee tomorrow!)

I had my bestie in town last weekend for my b-day party.  I turned 36 this year.  I had a little shin-dig at my house and had some friends over.  We didn't have a huge crowd, but the ones that were there were greatly appreciated for helping make my bday week very memorable!  Even though it was hotter than hates outside and we only got to enjoy my new patio cushions and tiki torches for all of about 5 minutes, it was still a great time.  I am really blessed to have such wonderful people in my life!

Here are a couple of pics...(thanks to Melissa for helping me find a HOT MAMMA dress to really feel the part!  LOVE the compliments it gets me!!!)

Sassy...

My oldest daughter and I....my mini me.  I can't believe she is 14 and starting high school this year....ugh!  I am not that old....I am not that old....

My bestie Melissa.  A fellow lifestyle changer, my motivation, my rock, and most importantly, my personal shopper!  :o)

Ok, so now my brain is mush, so I had better wrap up this spontaneous post and hit the hay.  The workout alarm is going to be blaring at me all too soon.  Hopefully I will have some time this weekend to get caught up on the blog posts, so cross your fingers for lots of posts!

Welcome to all of the new readers!  So glad to have you here!  :o)

In honor of my birthday week, I will leave you with this little funny....
