Thoughtful Thursday

I haven't blogged very much and really there is no excuse. So I thought I'd try and make it a regular habit of posting each day with a little something. So here's my post for today - a couple of things that have been rolling around in my head:

• Why isn't there a plunger holder? Seriously. You buy a toilet brush and it comes with one of those holder thingamajiggys and what about the plunger? Don't you stick that in the toilet too? Doesn't that get all muckety mucked up? Then what?

• What's up with the kajillion cupholders? Seriously - looking for a new car? A kajillion cupholders is the main boasted feature! SERIOUSLY? We're that dumb as a society that we'd pick a car with more cupholders over one that has better performance or reliability?! Even CHILD car seats come with a cupholder or two.

• When did TV become more important than spending time with your family? I've been stood up by friends because of SOMETHING that was on TV before and not to mention the couch-potato syndrome as displayed by Pappa Bear every now and then. C'mon, really? Don't we have better things to do, people to see?

• Although it seems that with technology that we should be able to keep in touch more, why is it that we talk to each other less?

Eating Healthier?

So, I think my participation in the Body After Baby Challenge is a bust. BUT I will continue to keep on and try to make the changes for a healthier and fit lifestyle. I had to give this some serious thought and because Samantha was wondering where we all had disappeared to. So here's the truth:

Although I was inspired by Samantha's positive and uplifting pep talk, I could not find the motivation. I cannot even explain why because it'll just sound like a bunch of excuses. AND after I inhaled eight (yes, I said EIGHT) donuts in two days, I realized I had a problem.

I've lost my willpower. Where did it go? It was there before Cub, it was present during my short, enjoyable journey growing the Cub, and somewhere after his arrival it disappeared! But thanks to some encouraging words (once again by Samantha), I'm stepping back up and getting on the wagon!

Starting with TODAY! Here's what I've consumed so far:

Breakfast: 1/2 Breakfast Burrito (eggs, bagon, potatoes, cheese, salsa)
Snack: Kashi Go Lean Chocolate Almond Bar
Lunch: Marie Callender's Pasta Al Dente Cavatappi Genovese

Have you TRIED one of these Marie Callendar's Pasta Al Dente meals? It tastes SUPERB and it only 400 calories! Granted it is loaded with sodium (1180mg) but I don't normally salt my food so I figure it's a wash, right? AND we've started to add in evening/nightly walks with the Cub into our routine after dinner. So, wish me luck!
