New Sneaks and smacks!

ALRIGHT, so yesterday once the snow started John was more excited than a kid watching a cow give birth! He had already made plans for taking Chelsea sledding and couldn't wait to dig out the sled. I guess I am the plan spoiler and when he asked me if he could go right before dark and I said no that they could go in the morning. *Sometimes I laugh at John asking me like I'm his mother! Then while putting the kids to bed it started sleeting/ice raining and when we woke up the snow that was once nice and fluffy had turned to sleet!!!! John was so mad at me he spoiled the whole time outside by being a grouchy gus!

Then he ate breakfast and went to nap off his tainted side! I went up to pester him, much like a little sister would, and we finally started laughing and the mood was lifting. John's mom and I made cinnamon rolls, She and Chelsea made a smoothy and played tea party with all the tea set, Garrett napped so I could get all my work caught up and Ellie and I finally got a workout in!

Speaking of the workout, I have taken 4 days off and honestly haven't really thought much about working out or how sad it is that I can't do it. I have spent my time instead working, playing with the kids, watching my DVR'd shows, etc. However, I woke up today and felt like I needed to get back into things or else I would have to start over again! So around the middle of the day (when I would normally do it anyway) I made John's mom workout with me. Right after jumping jacks, like always, I got the shin pain again. I finally thought it was my shoes so I broke down and went to get some new fitted sneakers. There is this store in Knoxville called FLEET FEET. They specifically fit women with sports bras and sneakers! Mostly a runners store. I went there with John's sister Sarah once for an event called Diva's night. It was informative and fun and obviously made an impact on me or I wouldn't have even remembered where their store was! The guy at the store, I thought, was super nice and helpful and I think he found me the best shoes to help fix my problem! I will have to let you all know later how well they work. The store does offer a statisfaction gaurantee so no matter how worn they will take back the shoes if they aren't working like I feel they should! GREAT!!!!!!

So after that John and I went to Dick's Sporting Goods and got his game target and then got his new arrows put in for getting cut to size. That should me the end of hunting things for right now, HOPEFULLY! Yeah, right.

Other than all that I had a finally happy day, got to spend some quality time with my love. I love when we are both in a good mood and get to spend time together without the kids! Doesn't happen often but it's nice when it does. Also the kids were nice today. I learned after we got home that Garrett got sent to the timeout chair because he smacked Chelsea in the face, pulled her hair and then smacked her again. Funny to hear because I know he has that mean streak in him and imagining it was funny but not funny that he really treated her that way. I told John once that one day he was going to snap because of all the mean Chelsea bestowed upon him! LOVE IT, in a bad way. Off to give these kids a bath and get them in bed early.

PS- I have a head cold. No wonder I have had headaches for the last week! Just a lot of sinus pressure. SAD but relieved to know the truth.
