Adam left today for a month long training in Alabama. He was gone for the entire month of April and now he'll be gone for the entire month of June. I'm not happy. I hate to whine, but it's not easy being the only one around to wrangle my monkeys. They seem to all need something at the exact same time and Zander is too dramatic to wait for anything. I live in constant fear of the next meltdown.

I decided that there are things I'd like to do everyday while Adam is gone. Maybe this will help make the month go by faster and I want the boys to have fun things to do this summer. Since I can't really take them anywhere when Adam is gone, I figure the next best thing would be to do really fun stuff at home. So that's the plan.

I also plan on working out. Everyday. I don't know if I can do it. I severely lack motiviation and commitment to these types of projects. I've selected Jillian Michaels to annoy me everyday during a 30 Day Shred. I really don't like Jillian but it's hard to dispute her ability to force people to get in shape if they are following her workout.

And I will be cooking more often. When Adam is home, I cook nearly everyday. Some days we have leftovers, some days we get fast food, but a large majority of our meals are at home....with me having cooked them. When Adam is gone, it's harder for me to cook for me and the boys because Zander doesn't eat anything but yogurt and Adisson and I make up about one normal adult stomach. I don't know why I dislike cooking while Adam's away because really, I have to do it less considering there's always lots of leftovers. Maybe it's because while he complains or annoys me about other things, he rarely HATES something I've made and more often than not will eat it even if he did. The boys are much more critical.

Off to bed. Tomorrow should be pretty busy.
