UPDATE FOR THE YEAR

OKAY, so here's a rundown with what's been going on since January. Last time I did an update was then and now's the time to do it again! Here we go!

  • Okay okay okay...we all know I broke my foot on April Fools day. I'll be going to the Dr today to see what my next month of torture will be like.
  • Wise turned one and he is only 18 lbs. He eats like a horse too. He's just a little guy!
  • Prince turned three and he is going through a very difficult phase. He'll start dance classes and preschool soon!
  • FOR THE RECORD~ my marriage is GREAT. I read my older posts and eek...I lead it on to think we had a horrible marriage! We don't! Just some rough spots! We're doing fine fine fine. My husband is a cool dude.
  • Boricua got a promotion at work and received a 20% raise. Its just what we needed...but when you think about it...it's not a really a raise because he's spending so much more on gas to get to work! ARGH!
  • We're planning for a major move this Fall. We'll be starting all over again.
  • Boricua totaled our car and we got the minivan of our dreams...haha.
  • I made a brief trip out to Utah for my nana's funeral and visited with family. Alot of the family saw Wise for th first time!
  • We donated bone marrow and it was quite an experience...we'll be doing it again!
  • WE took a trip up to New York City and stayed with my cousin. It was great.
  • We were given an old mercerdez Benz, of the family I nannied for. We're still trying to get it all fixed and running. There's no major problems. It's the car I drove when I lived with the family.
  • Boricua and I celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary over sushi.
  • Boricua also had his Golden Birthday this year. He turned 26 on the 26Th of January. I know, we're still so young!
  • Mater-tomater has spent alot more time with us and he now a new baby brother on his mom's side. He has all brothers!
  • I am officially on a meal plan set up specifically for my needs. I'm on day two and already feel a difference. SUPPORT ME! lol.

I have a meal plan!!

My long time friend, Mark Lani, is a personal trainer and MARK- graciously decided to help me get back into shape! I asked for help because I'm helpless and hopeless with my body. It's icky icky poo poo. I'm used to be in tip top shape! Not saggy, baggy and fluffy! And my major obstacle is~ MY DIET! So, he set me up a meal plan!
I will be on a 1,200 calorie a day diet that consists of lean protein, fruits and veggies pretty much. Once I'm back to my normal activity level, I'l be able to take in 1,579 calories a day. My weightloss goal is 10-15 lbs. I am not going to tell you how much I weigh! I will give you run down of my daily food intake later. Mark set up my entire meal plan for me. All I do is log onto: PEREFECTIMAGE4LIFE.COM and log in! Easy as 1,2,3!
So, maybe you should check out the website if you're interested and want to get a little push start on your weightloss goals!
Let me tell you...I AM SO READY FOR A CHANGE!!!
And for the record; I DID NOT CHANGE MY HAIR BACK TO BLONDE yet. That pic of me and my student was old. Although I WILL be getting caramel highlights and a trim here very soon! My mousy brown roots are showing!!
I'LL KEEP YOU UPDATED ON MY WEIGHTLOSS JOURNEY!!
Tomorrow morning will be: a bowl of instant oatmeal and a glass of nonfat milk. My snack will be: a rice cake w/ peanut butter. YUM!

Congratulations

My student winning GOLD today at Starquest! You get to go to NATIONALS! Hooray!!
She did a lyrical solo to Natalie Grant's 'The Real Me'. Look it up if you haven't heard it. I gaurentee you'll like it!



The benefit of having a broken foot...

REcollecting on the pros of my immobility is this:

Boricua and I, without choice, spend alot of time together. He is my taxi and takes care of me. With this, we can re-bonded and have enjoyed each other's company so much. So, with my broken foot, he has HAD to take and go everywhere with me...and boy has it made a difference. We don't work on our own agendas...it's our agenda and we've been able to spend ALOT of quality time together as a couple and as a family.

Boricua has gained more empathy. That was something he lacked. He's definitely had to work on it this past month and he is alot more sensitive and aware of your(my) feelings.

As ugly and fat as I feel right now, he doesn't care. And I know this.

Mater being a GREAT helper here and learning to be a good worker and practice self reliance!

We all went up to Lancaster, PA, this morning, as a family without choice. It turned out to be a nice little trip for us. You might be asking why we went up there and it was because my student competed in her last dance competition. She did GREAT TOO! She won a GOLD and a special 'photogenic' award! Hard work pays off...now I have an excuse to go to Nationals this Summer in Virginia Beach! YAY!
I too noticed the great sacrifice Boricua made FOR ME, by getting 3 hours of sleep, driving two hours to Lancaster, hauling two kids around and driving back home...and none of this trip pertained to him. It was for my job. I told him I owed him BIG TIME and he simply said, " Scratch my back"... I can't complain!

I've learned to relax a little more when my place gets dirty or messy...it'll get cleaned eventually...I mean..it still drive me nuts...JUST A TAD...

Best Friends

Best Friends is an understatement!
They're two pees in a pod!
I cannot fathom enough how great this two week streak has been with Mater-tomater here.
Will this kinship last? Ha, hopefully! They might not stand eachother when they become teenagers! I hope not!Mater's the mom and Prince is the dad.
This is only severly cute when they're little...
And that is just too funny...
Mater was here again this week, every day.
Just as it was revealed to me in the(LDS~Mormon) Temple when I first was pregnant with Braxton, about this exact issue...all I heard was, " Your time will come..."
Maybe this is my time....
to be at peace and love a boy who is biologically not mine...

Hopefully it'll all work out!

OH YAH...

And after the day of craziness... the plave is still is a BIG FAT MESS!
I'm really irritated by now....

A typical day...

It's not a time to stop and smell the pretty April flowers rightnow....we have no time! 2008 will be an unforgetable year for us!

Here's a sampl eof my typical day right now:


Boricua leaves for work around 6:15 am
The children wake up around 7:45 am and I yell at Prince for about an hour to go back to bed but then finally give in around 9 am.
I put my cripple boot on, use my cripple canes and hop on into the boys room.
I balance with one leg and get Wise out of his crib. He's screaming and clinging onto my leg because he wants milk but I'm weaning, so he can't.
Wait...What's that smell? Ah-ha! It's poopy diapers! and notice it's plural!
Well, I first hobble myself to the b-room, take care of business and hobble to the nearest set of baby wipes.
I first fight to get Prince to get changed...he usually wins because he can run and I can't.
So, I go for Wise...he wins too because HE can run.
I crawl around on my newly callused knees and catch one of them!
After 20 minutes, I get their diapers changed.
Prince is asking for Candy and Chocolate Milk.
Well, he gets no candy but we compromise for french toast sticks.
I roll around on my computer chair to make them breakfast.
I attempt getting them to eat at the table...I loose.
They make a mess all over the floor.
I can't vacuum and I'm too tired..so... I try to go lay down!
It's a FAILURE!
So, we take baths and get dressed. That takes about an hour.
By this time, it's noon..already.
I check my email...while Prince is pulling on the chair or terrorizing his little brother. I can't pull him off because he's more than 5 feet away from me and I just am not fast enough on crutches.
Those darn callused knees HURT...
I become a disciplinarian... more like a mean mom.
WE open the balcony to go out and play but Prince wants to go downstairs... WE can't. I can't hop down the stairs with a 13 mo old in my arms. So, outside is out of the agenda until daddy gets home.
I hear the Disney Channel in the background and The Little Mermaid is on about this time.
I hobble to the kitchen and ask Prince for 5 minutes to bring me the 'black' chair.
I roll around the kitchen, trying to get some lunch ready for the boys.
I once again try to get them to eat at the table but once again, they know they can run around due to my immobility.
I check my emails again...I'm really popular, okay...
I finally get to eat but it's crap...well, snack is more like it.
I drink my 3rd Diet Coke...can't survive without it. WHAT? Got a problem with it? ha
The boys are a mess and there's food all over the floor....do I clean it up?
I do my best. By this time, I've had it. Hobbling, rolling, hopping and crawling has worn on me.
I this the nap time signal.
I ask Prince to pick up for 15 minutes and he does a little.
I hope to the kids room with Wise in my arms...what a bumpy ride!! I slide him in his crib...oh, gotta find his bo-bo(pacifier)...I look for it! Found it! I give it to him.
I battle with Prince for 20 minutes. He can;t make up his mind about what movie he wants to watch or if he wants something to drink. Finally, we come to a decision after 20 minutes of pure frustration! And TRUST ME! He is RELENTLESS!
I'm pooped out.
I hobble to the couch and turn on the TV....I'm so looking forward to finally relax and elevate my foot. It hurts! Vicodin's calling....but it makes me nauseous..eww.
Prince runs back and forth from his room for a half hour..on a GOOD day. He finally gets tired of it.
I eat, drink and TRY to nap but the messy place is DRIVING MY CRAZY!!!!!! But my foot is killing me!! So, I wait until Boricua gets home and have him help.
Boricua comes home around 4:00 pm.
He UN winds for maybe 15 minutes then the kids wake up. They're demanding and cranky!
It's now time for me to get ready for work.
Boricua gets the kids ready.
It's a half hour battle to go to the car...I hop down stairs, hobble to the car, have to buckle the kids in and make sure we have everything. I get dropped off...David does things with the kids.
He picks me up and helps me to the car.
We come home and it's past 7:oo pm. We try to find something to eat but I have a hard time cooking...so we're reliant on frozen food...yuck!!! Lately, it's been SUBWAY, which isn't bad.
WE put the kids to bed and that takes a good 45 minutes for our full routine.
Boricua and I spend maybe an hour together talking or watching TV.
He goes to bed, I sure don't.
I'll watch TV, read or get on the Internet.
He's out.
I finally fall asleep on the couch around 12:30 am.
AND WE START ALL OVER AGAIN!
Doesn't it sound like fun?
HA!

OH NO....to top it off...

I'm starting to feel sick! I am achy, nauseous, sore throat and just icky icky poo poo! Gosh dang, could it come at a BETTER time? Since a broken foot AND NOT BEING ABLE TO WALK OR DRIVE is not enough, right? Ppsshh, rrrright. I am puzzled to what it may be! Allergies? mmm, probably not....Flu? WHAT the eff... um... low Immunity?? I have no idea! I'm not too thrilled about it! All I know is, I feel CRUMMY!!
Holy Cow! I cannot say life is just breezy right now! It's not WW111 here or anything but it's NON STOP! Here is what a typical day is like:

THIS CR-UCKS!!!

I'll be on CRUTCHES for ATLEAST THREE, YES THREE more WEEKS!!!!! It looks like I"ll be in this boot 'til JUNE!
And to think, I was hoping to be totally out of the boot by May 19th, MY BIRTHDAY!!!! That's not happening!
I don't know how the heck I'm going to clean my place. It's so bad!!!!!

A good home pays off???


Mater -Tomater has been at our house every single day this week! It's been, actually, quite fun! He is a fun little guy and keeps Prince occupied!! Just what I need right now!


So, are you wondering WHY he's been over every single day this week? Well, because HE WANTED TO! What a 180 degree turn compared to 2 years ago! Even a year ago! He called Monday, asking Boriuca if he'd come and pick him up. Then he called Tuesday afternoon, first asking if we could come to his baseball practice. We talked for a few minutes and enthusiastically asked if he can come over. THEN, he woke me up this morning, calling and calling AND CALLING, until I picked up the phone! Finally, I called back, thinking something was wrong, but NO! It's was bubbly Mater, asking if he could come over! How can I turn him down? There's no way! It was he who made the effort to call and ask me! I though it was the cutest thing. He was so persistent! I mean, we do nothing but encourage him to come over more often and develop closer relationships with us, especially with Prince! They're only 22 months apart! We want to to know and feel he is apart of our family as well and we love him just as much as anyone else in the family!


We'll see how long this lasts! To be honest, I'm loving it. Prince adores Mater and vice verse. We did a "Spotlight On ME" page for both of them, asking certain questions. One of the ?s were, 'My Hero' and Mater put, X----R(Prince). It was so funny!

So, maybe our faith and diligence with this whole ordeal will pay off?

UPDATE ON THE FOOT!

Well, as we ALL know(I mean, I've been whining about it for two weeks now!) I broke my foot! The 5th Metatarsal, to be exact. That bone is in the forefooot and the 5th meta is the very last bone below the pinky toe(the bone runs down your foot). I snapped the sucker almost in half, from the bottom up diagnolly. Then I chipped the bone right above it. There's good things and bad things about NOT breaking the bone completely
Here's the bad thing: I CANNOT put any weight on it, whatsoever. Where the break is located, it's right where our foot bends as we walk. If I attempt to walk, I"ll snap that sucker wide open and make the break even worse..thus causing more healing time and PAIN! its the healing time that completely bites! I can handle the pain. Plus, it's nearly impossible to walk on. I tried with my boot on and I couldn't.
The Good thing about it not breaking in half: NO SURGERY!!! And a little less healing time!!So, I will be on crutches for 3-4 more weeks!(hopefully LESS!). I CANNOT bare any weight on it, whatsoever. I asked him if I can even try walk with the weight on my heal and he gave me the NOPE. :( I asked him if I can drive and once again, the NOPE. I will be going in again in two weeks to get my forefoot taped. I'll probably get more xrays, like I did today. I didn't see too much progress with the break. The doctor said the break will open a little more, then start calcifying. I am although calcifying around the bone, as it naturally does. The bone creates like it's own little cast. It's just amazing how our body heals itself, right!! WOW!Through all of this, I have realized how IMPORTANT FEET ARE! I mean, I always knew theey WERE, being a dancer, but man!!!! This is through a whole different perspective!So, I will be in my stylish ski boot until the end of May, about. I WAS hoping to get it off by my birthday but that doesn't look like it's happening! I'll be just getting off crutches hopefully! The break needs to bond together before baring any weight on it.This has been such a trying few weeks and I have so much longer to go!!!You should see my house!! It's a DISASTER!!!!!!!!!! I need maid! ha!

Sunday, April 13, 2008

Thanks friends...

Yes, that's not the lighting. My foot is green.I have purple bruising on the bottom of my foot as well.
My daily attitude
My 'ski' boot I'll be in for the next 6 weeks.
MY DEAR FRIEND KAMIE sent me these DAISIES! Aren't they pretty!

Thanks to all of my friends who have been so supportive during my immobility!
Now, it's off fo more Vicodin!...Ha, Gotchya!

LIKE I SAID BEFORE....

I AM A VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY LOUSY TYPER!!!!!
PLEASE, BARE WITH MY TYPOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
REALLY, I'M NOT THAT BIG OF AN IDIOT!!

I'm a blogger slacker...so let me UPDATE!

I haven't been in the mood to stay day to day with my silly little blog. I guess I've wanted to keep things under wraps lately. I'm going through alot rightnow but it could be alot worse than it is.
ECONOMY??~ What is going on with the Economy? No wonder why we need food storage! I'm starting to wonder! We filled out gas tank the other day and it was 60.00 dollars! As compared to a few months ago, it was 40.00 and that was still expensive! We are struggling financially rightnow. It never ends! It's an ongoing financial battle. It...never...ENDS!!! I'm getting really tired of living paycheck to paycheck. It's mentally draining because I'm constantly stressing out! So, with this in mond, we've decided to move back out west where it's a little more affordable. Now, I'm worried if the Economy will even let us! With finding a job and buying a home and all...and I refuse to live in Salt Lake and we might have to for a few months! Oh boy...I REALLY don't like it there. I REALLY DON'T. I'm saying this because there's an internship opportunity there that'd be so wonderful for Boricua! He'd intern for 3 months, get a pay raise and become a regular employee and get another large pay raise 6 month later. It's an IT job. Just what he's been doing for 4 years now. So, it may be Salt Lake. AAHH!!!! It's a wonderful career opportunity for him and if we were to move now, then we'd move now!
MY BROKEN FOOT~ I am miserable and frustrated with it. It's been very hard trying to take care of two toddlers by myself as Boricua is working. I'm stressed out with work amd I can't get up and dance with my students. I've been in pain because I'm not RICE-ing enough. I've tried to limp around on it and I was up all night, swollen, numb and in pain! So, I've been given more vicodin. Gee, hope I don't get addicted to those things! I'm started to not feel the effects of them anymore! is that bad? I've never taken so many pain meds in my life! Like now...I took one over an hour ago and I don't feel a thing. I've already lost 200 dollars in wages due to this injury. I luckily may get Workers Compensation but I haven't heard from my boss about it yet...and the bills are starting to pour in!! So far, it's not too bad. My radiology bill was only 31.00. I lucked out too because my doctor(podiatrist) is the family I nannyed for and they're taking care of me(They're a couple who own a practice). I text messsage Dr T all of the time. I'm probably driving him crazy!! Hey, I may be milking it but I've never broken a foot before and I kind of wish I got it out of the way when I was a teenager. Because it's been one of the most difficult things I've had to go through. Not as bad as having Bulimia but darn near close. Haggling with kids, work and family; without being able to drive or walk..it's been a struggle, to say the least. I'm getting impatient with my immobility. I just feel my foot experiencing atrophy and my hips collecting more fat cells. The top two things a dancer DOES NOT want! I can't fathom enough, how hard it's been!
MY MESSY HOME~ I can't clean my place like I usually do with my immobility and I've had to leave a bulk of the chores to Boricua. He is not a very good housekeeper. The bathroom and kithen floor is gross, the carpet is so gross, the walls have marks all over them, the toilet is dirty, there's clothes everywhere and the beds are never made!! There was PILES of clothes on the couch in our room, sitting there for almost 2 weeks!! I finally got Boricua to do it but he didn't even do all of it. I had to hop around on one foot, trying to put the clothes away. I couldn't take it anymore. The kids closet is SO aweful. Their toys are in disarray. Boricua's idea of putting the toys aways is throwing them in the closet. As with putting their clothes away too! the counter tops are sticky and we have piles of dirty laundry. There's noway I can do laundry! W have to walk to another unit. That's going down 3 flights of stairs, walking down 3 buildings and going down another set of stairs. Plus carry your big load! Uh, that aint happenin'! Boricua is generally good with laundry. The only thing is; he waits until we have 10-15 loads to do and then throws them on the couch after they're done. I'm expected to fold and put them away. So, they end up getting wrinkly! I shouldn't complain though! Atleast he's doing it! The other thing; I can barely cook dinner. We've had frozen, processed food or have had to eat out. I haven't liked it. Although I've had some WONDERFUL friends who've helped me out with meals! That's been great!
Well, let's hope I can get off my crutches this Wednesday! I'll be getting X-rays to see how I'm progressing! I hope and pray I can bare weight on this foot. I don't care about keeping the boot on for the next 6 weeks! I just want to walk and drive again! I'm SURE boricua does too!
My SELF IMAGE~ sucks right now. I feel ugly and fat. I have ZERO romance in my life and I miss it. My skin is WHITE, my clothes are bad and I'm not in shape! It's horrible! Oh, how I wish I could jog to get rid of this weight! I can't stand it anymore! I am finally starting to wean with Wise and hopefully my weight will come off faster! No, I don't lose weight when I breastfeed! I lose weight weight when I STOP breastfeeding! But now, my breasts are nice a saggy! It's sad at 24 years old! I feel my husband isnt attracted to me anymore. He looks at me funny and is not interested in romance by any means! I WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think this sums it all up. It's 1:30 am and I'm bright eyed and bushy tailed. I've gotta hit teh sack!
Until next time!!!!

Broken feet SUCK!!!!!!!!


I can't fathom enough about how bad this sucks!!!!! Try hopping up and down 3 flights of stairs several times a day!! Oh, yah, did I mention a 1 and 3 year old too? ARRGGGHHHHH!!!!

So, before I broke my foot....

Prince turned 3 and we celebrated Thomas style.



He had a great little celebration! The onlt thing that sucked was, we had to do it on Sunday and we had a huge mess to clean up! And we didn't even have a full on party! It was a pizza dinner and presents! It was still fun!
Now on to that stupid, lame, darn, tootin' foot that I BROKE...
BTW~ I'm on Vicodin rightnow, so my typing is really awful!

What an APRIL FOOLS...

I BROKE MY FOOT ON APRIL FOOLS DAY!!!!
I'm not fooling either!!!!
I was teaching my hip hop class to my 8 year olds. I was showing them how they needed to skip in their dance, over did the skip and rolled on my rigth foot as I landed! All you heard was a big 'CRACK'!!! I though I just twisted it. So I stood up to walk it out and I couldn't walk on it!! Then I tried again and it was worse!
I started getting sweaty and nauseous...then I knew something was up. But was still in denial up until the doctor told me I broke it! I laughed when it happened but of course, was in alot of pain! It was pretty strange! Of all things, I BREAK my foot (The 5th Metatarsal bone, to be exact) SKIPPING!! SKIPPING, and I'm a dancer! I've never broken a bone up until now!
So, my Podiatrist said is not a very good break but it could be much worse. I'll be on crutches for the next 3 weeks and in a boot cast for 6-8 weeks! I wont be able to bare weight on it for a month!!!! Mind you, I have two small children, I can't drive and I have to walk up 3 flights of stairs to get to my house!
We'll see how this all works out..... Let's pray it does!
Gosh darnit!! I'm so irritated about it! GRRRRR!!!!!!!
