We Have Ketones!
Ketones are what is released in your pee when you start burning fat for energy instead of carbs... So, it means my Atkins is working!! Yay!
I haven't been utterly faithful to the 20 or less carbs that Atkins Induction requires, but it must be ok, since I'm still in the "fat burning" mode. I am hungry right now, tho. It's close to lunch, but I'm not sure if it's close enough!!
I have been really enjoying myself over on the other blog (myspace.com). This one is probably fun, too, but I may give this one up entirely soon if the other stays so fun. We'll see.
Only 3 days until the Big 12 Championship!!! Hook 'Em Horns!!

Do It! Do It! Do It!
Go Texas!! Hook 'Em Horns!!
Well, that game gave me a little bit of a scare!! Yuck. But, it ended well!
And Thanksgiving was a great time. It was so good to see everyone & hang out.
Then I started Atkins on Saturday. So, now I'm on Day 4. It's going really well. Kim (from work) & I agreed to both do it for the time between T-day and X-mas, then take the week between Xmas & NYs off, then pick it back up after the new year.
Well, I'm actually heading out to lunch right now, but just wanted to jot some quick stuff down!

Knuckle Down, Buckle Down
I think I could vomit.
Payroll just informed me that they've been UNDER-charging me for daycare by 1/2 since Lela came back to Cedra. Not cool.
And that they are going to "catch up" on this paycheck. Not cool.
About $600 worth of extra deductions on a single paycheck. Very not cool.
But, to quote Diana Ross, I will survive.
AAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
Ok, just had to get that out.
I am still looking fwd to this wknd at mom's.

All You Gotta Do Is Put Your Mind To It
Wonderful Weekend!!
Friday after work I took to the squirrels to see Chicken Little. What a Blast! Then Saturday we did grocery shopping (normally a huge chore that I refuse to take the kids on, but they were GREAT!!). And since they were so good at the store, I took them for ice cream, too. (Lela had "superman" which is like rainbow sherbet, Hannah had cookies'n'cream, and I had pralines'n'cream. yum).
Then to top off the afternoon, I stopped by Toys'R'Us to let them play on the playscape there, and window shop. I also bought Le a new booster seat. It's cool w/ cinderella on it :)
Then Sunday we went out to eat after church (Chili's and then play time at McD's), had a relaxing afternoon, and then a good time at evening service (What Hannah & Le call "Ny Church")
Jeff rolled into town around 10:30. He had a good hunting trip. And said no to alcohol! Way To Go Jeffy!!! I'm really proud of him and his strength at this time. Anyways, he shot a deer. (It was a deformed buck that he thought was just a big doe when he shot it). Oh well, venison is venison! ;)
Ok, this is getting long - sorry bout that!
I am SO Looking Fwd to Thanksgiving at MOMs!!

But you can be happy if you've a mind to
Ok, so Jeff left for Quana last night to hunt w/ his bro-in-law this wknd. I didn't sleep worth crap, the baby got up twice and the oldest one once. But I did get to work on time (tho I'm wearing jeans, tshirt, and tennis shoes... It's friday, right?). Today we have a turkey lunch in the daycare. That should be fun. As long as the kids don't get too clingy when I have to return to work. That always stinks.
I am going to post the halloween pics because they are so dang cute. (And to figure out how to actually do that!)

I think this afternoon (after work) the girls & I are going to pick up some movies at Blockbuster (I really want them to see Sound of Music). And later this wknd we may actually go to a movie at the theater. That sounds like fun to me. Plus it's too cold to do the park or anything like that.
I am really looking fwd to Thanksgiving next week. I wish we could stay all wknd, but I know it would cause a hectic following week (laundry, dirty house, groceries, etc)
Ok, I am going to work some now - blog at ya later!

My First Blog Post!
I read quite a few blogs nowadays, and in order to post a comment on one (Lela's about China), I had to become a blogger myself.
Wow - the freedom - and responsibility! This may become a wonderful tool for self expression & realization - similar to a journal or diary... (but one that I could inconspicuosly add to while at work) hmm.
This first one will be short & empty, just to see what I'm doing!
