I laughed so hard I cried and nearly peed my pants

At my job #3 tonight I went and put back a large selection of baby clothes and then I glanced at the tables. One table only had 1 White Shirt left. White is usually something we have in huge numbers. So I asked Jennifer if it was the last one.... "I guess." "Ok". . . I refolded and tucked it behind the other ones. As I was walking away I noticed it wasn't the last one... There was about 6 others on the floor underneath the boottom slat of the table which is like 3 inches off the floor. And this isn't like a dinning room table mind you.
"Oh no there they are." - Me.
"Well how are we supposed to reach those. Goodness."
Jennifer tried from the long side. " Well I can't, we'll have to get ___."
and then I squatted down.
"Omg! No! What are you doing? Are you allowed to do that?!?! No, stop it! OMG Stop it!!" etc. etc. etc.
The whole time I am giggling.
"I'm pretty sure I can squat."
"OMG I don't know the rules but I don't know if you can. I guess you can. But should you?
And after I stand up she yanks everything out of my hand and continues to fuss at me.
I laughed. "I just did." And I wanted to tell her squatting was the easiest chore I'd done lately considering my f'n yard work. But I didn't want to get fussed at for real. But here she is asking me 50 questions and at this point I'm laughing so hard I'm crying and then the MOD comes over and she stops. Dead Sielence. All afraid we're both going to get yelled at for me and for her letting me "squat". I'm still laughing as I'm typing. She may have gotten dead silent but I walked away giggling. And then when I reached my register I burst out laughing. I'm not sure if it was the fussing or just having someone be concerned for me but either way. I laughed so much I had to pee.

Realization

I just realized that this was a big day in my past! Actually I noticed it today after work but forgot to mention it in my post. Three "historical" things in MY life happened today. ALL in one year and they were all firsts. And although if I told someone what they were some would think I was crazy but- others .... who've lived long enough to see all the dimensions would realize today is a notorious celebration of just life in general. And I'm happy that I remembered the date and those 3 precious once in a lifetime occurrences. Sometimes I wish I could cheat and look ahead to see what my future holds. When I'll find completeness in all departments. When my soul will feel "full" or free depending on how you look at it. I'm not sure if tomorrow will hold another opportunity for an anniversary some day - for good or for bad. I have so many bads I know will come but I have faith that good ones will be made as well and in two fold (I hope). Part of me wants to contact the people involved in my anniversaries for today. But they are anniversaries (the past and better left there). Just know if you read this I remembered this day quite fondly (now). The good, the bad, and the ugly and I love each of you who helped me with "my historical life moments."

makover and cleaning.

My mass body index score is the best it's been since high school. Kiss my butt (blankety blank blank). This is even including my lovely two blizzards I had this week while we were craving brownie batter blizzards from DQ I mean come on yummy. And who hasn't seen the hillarious commercial for my fav. monthly blizzard. I just haven't been overeating (minus the ice cream), I've been drinking juice up the wazoo. Yes I'm still having my soda but only about 4 times a week. But I've lost about 10 lbs... Which isn't great considering other factors. But I'll eat even more (good things) to remedy that. Oh yeah and my house is slowly getting a makeover. Slowly because I'm the only one. Last week I pulled all my lovely weeds (ok I cheated and litterally had to saw 5 down but I pulled the rest.) and took all the vines off my fence. I also cleaned off my patio furniture, and cleaned out my deckbox, Petey got a bath and combed until he looked very silly, the trash got taken care of, and I dealt with recycables as best I could until later this week and all my rooms minus the laundry room and the bathroom on the days I have to be up at 5:30 have been looking fantastic if I don't say so myself. and I think the animals have been relativly happy with their new schedules, Petey has been cuddling constantly and I LOVE it. Whenever I wake up the 10+ times durring the night he is always sleeping right there. And last night when I woke up and didn't see him anywhere or feel him curled up on my butt or side I'd figured he'd gotten back to his old habbits but when I went to turn around I noticed he was "spooning" it was so cute. I almost wanted to call people and tell them but I think everyone is getting sick of my cat stories. Right now he's curled up in a ball in my lap. Oh and yesterday when I was cooking a casserole he slept on the stove with his head hanging over looking into the door. Btw. I disenfect my surfaces before I use them so Petey doesn't end up killing me and unfortunatly he has to be put in time out when I eat. Because I can't speak like Jeff did or something my tone doesn't project the same and he isn't afraid he is practically in my food. Back to cleaning.
New cleaning products I love

Moms going back to school....

I heard there's a lot of new rescources and funds available to mom's now.... I've pretty much heard it's the same as going for free... I don't know if it's that good. I highly doubt it. But if you're thinking of going back to school. Check out the new programs available. And talk to your resource officers at your schools. Some even offer day care. Exciting I know.

Also... My braves are kicking butt right now!

June 6th

Last week I broke down and finally bought myself new work shoes.... I had to I purposely threw the old ones out. And while I was buying super cute work shoes... ha not really. But they're comfy. I also bought myself new tennis shoes. There some extremely light Adidas brand anyway they have comfy gel like insoles or whatever. What better time to decide it's time to kick fitness in the butt then after you get amazingly comfy workout shoes? So I've decided it's time to amp up the better living stuff. Back in August I lost 20 lbs. And I've kept some off but not all. Starting Saturday I want to start a six week thing. It's nothing in the books, or the tv, or magazines. It's going to be my own little plan. It's going to include me, my shoes, and what I already have. No gym, no workout equipment, no crazy diets. It's going to include watching what I eat, cardio, and my own take on muscle training. It'll include things I did while I was dancing (Yes I danced for about 6 years) and using things around my house as machines. lol. At the end of 6 weeks on July 11th. I want to be back at 1## lbs the weight I was when I lost it back in August. If we are close to that then I will be happy! If not I will look into gyms. If I'm around where I need to be I'll continue until August 15th. And then I should be at the weight I want to stay at.

I know this is going to be hard with the family reunions and yummy food, summer cookouts, and birthday parties. But in Oct when were all at that beach I'm not going to feel the need to throw on a wind breaker or something and cover up!

June 27th I'm going to let you know where I am...
And hopefully not celebrate too much that night!
