Never make a blog without the correct info.

So, the same day I started my blog I bought a reliable scale ($7 at Target). It turns out I am a little under 160. So my goal is now to lose 30 lbs. Matt offered to make up the difference and lose 20. So that would make 50 lbs. Unfortunately the 50 weeks thing is now out the window. So now that I have accomplished my first goal, my second goal is to be 158 by today. Since I have had Vertigo and a fever for three days this week, it isn't so hard since I haven't eaten so much. I haven't exercised, but I haven't really had an opportunity since I have been feeling better because now both kids are sick and crabby and I am still not quite up to it since I can't make it to the maibox without feeling like the sidewalk is shifting under my feet.
On a different note, Matthew went to play ward basketball last night. The kids were awesome. I forgot my phone at home, and so we had to stay for 'just in case' purposes. So we were up on the stage watching the game and the first buzzer went off. Henry freaked out and told me he "hug, hug" in a panic-y voice. Eleanor was also freaked out and started crying. I held them both for a minute and then they got down to play. The buzzer went off for the game to start and ugh. Both kids again freaked out and tried to climb into my arms. They both decided they wanted to get down and play again and then it buzzed one more time for who knows WHY!!!! I was a bit ticked, because you don't need to push the buzzer everytime someone makes a substitution, especially because he didn't each time. So the third time Henry decided he had to stay on my lap not facing out but hugging me so the buzzer wouldn't get him. Argh. Eleanor, however, was totally cool about it and stayed on the ground every time the buzzer went off after that. She would look at me to see if it was ok, but once I shrugged my shoulders like "no biggie" she would go back to playing. Wow. I will never take them to a game ever again. On the up side, Matthew made a diving save to keep the ball inbounds, and made one assist. There were 15 guys who wanted to play on his team, so he didn't play more than probably 2 minutes per quarter. Not bad considering some of the ball hogs. Oh yeah, they got killed 30-58.
