Thursday Three

How about a Thursday three??

Three interesting facts about me....

1) Even though I am a teacher I was never a reader.  In fact....that's why I started teaching.  I started teaching so that I could teach children to absolutely love reading.  HOWEVER, that being said--this last school year I read all 7 of the Harry Potter books and 3 of the 4 Percy Jackson books--along with a few other books in there!  I have really grown to love reading and I absolutely love the ease of reading on the boys' Kindle Fires!

2) Daddy and I started P90X3 last night!  Holy moly!  I have about 50lbs to loose to be where I want to be--55-60 to be at my "wishful thinking" weight.  Ugh.  So far to go!  BUT--I know I can do it--a lot of the weight I am carrying is from having Baby Girl and not really being able to get back in a groove again.  And--I know that I have to think in small goals--looking at the big picture is overwhelming!  My 1st goal is 2-3 lbs this week.  That will be my manageable goal for each week.  I will be happy to see 2-3lbs per week.  More would be awesome--but I know that the study says an even 2-3lbs per week is ideal.  Le sigh.

3) Our family fosters basset hounds for a local rescue!  I absolutely love the breed--so fun and loving.  However we have a naughty female foster at the moment.  We will be glad when she is adopted.  We were "foster fellers" with our 1st basset hound--we adopted him and he is such a wonderful part of our family!  He is SOOO good with the kids and especially Baby Girl.  Although he seems to be grumpy with us that we left him for a week and a half.  Silly dogs.

So there you have my Thursday Three! :)  Until next time have a great one! :)
