Little Miss Penny:
it scares me more to read yours and know thats my future! i don't know i'm dog tired, will never be skinny, don't see my husband and wondering how i can sustain this crazy lifestyle. add some resentment, guilt and stress and eat a couple bags of cookies and there i'm at. wow what a bad attitude i have. just kidding, its all roses all the time, lets go to lunch with all our free time ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's just it for me too! how do you sustain this for the next like 10+ years? You are not alone girlie. please lets do lunch or a movie. asap
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to make that this weekend too- yum! Thanks for the great idea, plus I'm going to try roasted chick peas from skinny taste to go with. LOVE that it's in a crockpot, plus, I have all those ingredients in my pantry! ( well, minus the chicken...)
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to think that crock pot might be my only answer if I want my family to eat anything besides "heat it up in the microwave/oven real quick". Skinny taste has a whole crock pot section I was wondering about. UGH. Yes - this is why I think I am done w/ three kids. I don't know if I can keep up with the crazy scheduling and still be sane. Good times! You are one strong mama. PS - invite me to lunch w/ you and Brooke! We need to escape.
ReplyDeleteLet me just say right here, right now. KUDOS!! Considering you were never considered the early bird in our house growing up I'd say the fact that you are pulling this off and starting at 5am is beyond impressive. Nicely done!
