happy friday

So I finally figured out what I was doing wrong with my guitar--I was tuning it wrong, lol! I forgot there's a trick...found out what I was doing wrong on the internet and since then, gravy, baby.

I practiced for three hours off and on yesterday and now my left index finger has been numb since 6p last night. I might have overdone it. *giggle* But I can almost play a song now! I'm working on Enrique Iglesias' "Somebody's Me" because it's Danny's favorite.

Anyway, I'm really enjoying it!

For anyone concerned, I finally bought dish detergent last night. Yay, no more hand washing. That got real old real fast. I'm soooo lazy.

Also for anyone wondering, an update on our "30 Days to a new trampoline--we read and pray every day" exercise. We were doing so good, got up to like day 19 or something and then just completely forgot last Friday night. The kids had a movie night in the living room and it just slipped our mind to read scriptures and say prayer. So we had to start over. Last night was Day 6. We'll keep on truckin'.

And for diet interests, I'm down 11 pounds since school started. I'm suprised because this week I ate a lot of ice cream (in my defense, it was really yummy so I kept telling myself I had to get rid of it so I could go back on my diet and it wouldn't tempt me any more) but maintained my 11 pounds anyway.

Tonight I am hosting a fun little scrapbooking night and there will be lots of goodies. I'm thinking of starving myself all day so I can eat junk food tonight! It's worth it to be able to eat Crunch n' Munch, don't you think? Hopefully I'll have some scrappy pictures to post tomorrow because I've been out of the zone for a week or two and haven't done any scrapping.

I won a free photo shoot with Christine over on her blog!! I am sooooo stinkin' excited! This is by far the coolest thing I've ever won. Very excited and nervous. We'll do it in October, so I have two months to lose more weight and look hot!

Have a good three day weekend, all!
