Me? Long-winded? Or is it long-typed?

Holy moses, I'm tired. :)

On Friday night, my in-laws came down to MD for the weekend. :) My father-in-law road his new motorcycle down to surprise Adam (he knew he was riding, but not that he bought a new Harley) so they were in father/son Harley heaven together. :)

Saturday we got up SUPER early! Had Fractured Prune donuts for breakfast (yum!!) and then headed down to DC. First stop was to check on tickets to Ford's Theater. Snatched up some free tix for an 11:00 tour. Headed over to Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum and had fun there snapping pics with famous fake people! Back to Ford's for our tour. Adisson was THRILLLLLED!! Adam even snapped his picture just feet away from where Lincoln was shot. I'll add that as soon as Adam gets the pics off of the card. Lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe where Pam and I shared an AMAZING burger that had caramelized onions and apples and lots of yummy goodness! Then we walked down to the American History museum. It wasn't too far of a walk (only 0.7 miles) but we had already spent hours walking. By the time we got there we were pretty tired. But we checked out the cool stuff. :) Then we drove by the Washington Monument on our way to Arlington Cemetery where we watched the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknowns. Pretty intense and amazing to see. Stopped at McDonald's on the way home for the boys' first Happy Meal in over a month! :)

Sunday, the big boys took their Harley's down to DC as part of Rolling Thunder and the Ride to the Wall. They had a great time being together, bikes and patriotism are the two things Bob and Adam have most in common. :) Pam and I took the boys to Cici's Pizza for lunch, went to see Kung Fu Panda 2 afterwards, then went to the mall to see the doggies and have ice cream. :) Memaw bought the boys a book each (Adisson's obsessed with Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Zander LOVES Toy Story books, and Jax got a book about the song Baby Beluga because we sing it together ---- minus him singing it). Met up with the hot, dirty, sunburned dudes at the house and had Famous Dave's for dinner. Yummolicious!

Monday they came over super early and I made breakfast before they hit the road. Then I wanted to sleep all day but we had things to do and I had errands to run before Adam left for Connecticut today. Got a few errands run, my fave shopping trip was to JoAnn's, of course.

This morning we got up at 5:00 so we could take Adam to the Amtrak station to leave for his two day trip to New Haven. Haven't heard from him, assuming he made it there ok. :)

Last night, I bought Jillian Michael's new workout DVD, Ripped in 30. O.M.G. I have a love/hate relationship with Jillian. I love that she works me so hard and I hate that she works me so hard. I swear and yell at her by the last half of the workout. I hope, hope, hope I can stick with this workout like I intend to. I'm sure I won't because I don't stick with anything. But I can't stand how much weight I've put on in the last 8 months due to my blood infusions. It's great to be healthy, it sucks to look exactly like your friend who is six months pregnant. I've only ever weighed what I do now when I'm halfway through a pregnancy. This isn't how I want to look and the only person that can change that is myself. I just lack the follow through. Here's to hoping I can fix that.

Ok, I've got to get upstairs. Working on my sewing machine tonight and I'm determined to fix it. We'll see if I don't break it more. :(
