Journey to 40 and Sporty Day 6

 well, I am going to try and keep this as short as possible. I am preparing for Science tomorrow. I have been so excited about this lesson for awhile. We will be learning about the invention of the first photograph and how a camera works.  I have been reading the book my curriculum has me use over and over again for days ,trying to figure out how  I was going to explain this to the kids. A little stressed I must say, We were actually suppose to meet w/ our good friends the Ords today  but because of the snow we are meeting tomorrow. I am so glad  because finally tonight I found a neat project to do with them. They will make their own camera obscura.  I showed the lesson ( from the curriculum) to my husband  and asked him to read what they want us to read in this book and help me figure out a better way to explain. He read it and said " Is this book for kids?" I was so glad and wished that I had  not spent so much time reading this over and over  and just did my own thing. BLAH!!! So, now I am doing my own thing and actually having some fun. Hopefully they will have more fun since I was given an extra day and am going to KICK this book aside.

Today for breakfast I had ceral and 1% milk and coffee. For lunch Progresso soup and a handful of tortilla chips. For dinner Tacos. Still no points or staying focused on more proteins and veggies.  Geez, I just can't seem to get that going on.

I went to Tae bo tonight and had a good workout. Good night all . Sleep Tight.!!! BTW I am finding that since I have been exercising , I have more energy at night and I am sleeping better. :)

Awesome, Jen! I'm totally with you on the "sleeping better" deal since I've started exercising again. Of course, ignoring the alarm clock set to go off for milking time may not be better... :D
Thanks for inspiring me!
