Today started off pretty rough. I woke up late, dropped the girls off late, and was late to work. Also had to stop to get gas in the freezing cold, dead of the morning - I hate that! Then, as I settled into my desk at work, I realized my wallet was nowhere to be found. That meant I had to trek it back across our parking lot to see if it was in my car, all in a huge panic. At least there was nowhere but up to go from there, right?

Work went well. It was kind of dragging all day, but I did end up getting a lot done. I ate a quick dinner when I got home, then Christian and I were off to see the a screening of "Man on a Ledge" as soon as he got home. I was able to get some free passes through the mall of america a few weeks ago. We got there pretty early to make sure we got some [decent] seats, so we had a lot of time to chat and just hang out together, which was really nice. And, the movie ended up being really good. Quite a roller coaster, and a pretty good plot. We both really liked it.

After the movie, we were on our way home. The girls are spending the night at my in-laws since it was going to be so late by the time we got out. It was really hard not seeing them all day. It just never feels right - even though I know it's healthy to get a break once in a while, it was still hard.

Our wonderful evening came to an abrupt end once we got home. Christian started hassling me about leaving the monitor plugged in this morning (which, by the way, is something HE usually takes care of anyway). Of course, that ends up in a huge fight...and then I get even more upset because we're fighting over stupid stuff and it just spirals from there. Guessing we were both just tired, crabby and ready for bed!

Today was a break day from my exercise routine, I did get in my walks at work though. I did well on my eating - under calories, but a good balance. Feeling better and better every day, that's for sure!

Here is a picture that is actually from Monday. I just thought it was cute :) The girls were putting up their window clings from my mom. They're both getting so big!
