Finally…

So I paid off the trip to Disney when I woke up this morning. W00t. $5400 in six weeks. That kicked my tail, trying to make sure I made enough to pay for it as well as the bills. I know it’s still eight weeks away but time flies and the end of May will be here before you know it.

With both of us working out trying to lose weight, we may end up having to get new clothes before we leave. Of course I very rarely buy clothes so the same stuff that’s been in my dresser for the last six or twenty years should fit me through several size decreases. The wife may want to get more stuff, at least for the pool. I’m sure we’ll end up looking for bathing suits, if not for her then for the girls. I think one piece swimwear is called for in this case πŸ™‚

You would think that going to Disney that we wouldn’t spend much time in the pool, but even at the end of May it’s pretty darned hot in Central Florida. The last time we went to Disney was in the middle of October and we swam then too. I expect that we will spend a bit of time in the pool every day and I know we’re planning on going to at least one of the water parks.

Feels like Saturday

For some reason it has felt like Saturday since I got up this morning. I think that’s due to the fact that the girls are on Spring Break. Since they’ve been out of town all week I haven’t gotten used to them being here and now that they are it feels like a weekend.

I managed to sleep late for the first time this week. I don’t think I have gotten to sleep in on my day off in quite some time. Crawled out of bed around nine and just bummed around the house for a while, which was nice. Pete made muffins for breakfast. Even though she forgot to grease the muffin cups I managed to get most of them out without mishap. It’s been pretty quiet here today, much more quiet than usual when the girls are home, that’s for sure.

I did get to work out this morning, spending quite a bit more time there than I have. I worked out on all the weight machines, then spent 35 minutes on the elliptical. Talk about sweating your ass off, but that’s what it’s designed for. All in all I spent a couple of hours at the gym today and once I got home the wife went to do the same thing. I believe she’s out grocery shopping right now so once I get a couple of posts up I think I may just have to take a nap. Nap-time is a good thing πŸ™‚
