I LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about England. The culture, the history, the language! Sorry just had to put that in there, plus it really has been a blustery day today. Winds in excess of 40 mph!
I went and took my Final. I feel as though I did at least an 85%. I know I missed one for sure but it was only worth 2 pts so it shouldn't hurt my grade to much. I ended up skipping my other class, becuase my throat is hurting and I really didn't feel that great. So, I picked Aubs up and we came home early. She was tired so I layed her down so she could nap and I could get caught up on housework, becuase I'm feeling a little bit better. I got all the dishes done and so far 2 loads of laudry. I still have to fold the other two that weren't folded yet plus the two I've done but at least they are clean. Now I only have probably 3-4 left to do which I should hopefully get done tonight. I also picked up things so the house is getting back to normal, thankfully.

Sick contd...
I thought of this verse today as I was walking to class with my sore throat and fever. KJV Psalm 118:24 "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." I told myself this, because its only a cold I have. Thier are people on their death beds right now and I'm complaining of a sore throat, how shallow of me! Plus, it was a GORGEOUS day, I believe the temperture got up to 65 and sunny!!
I think I may have streep, but as of right now I'm feeling ok. I did go to school even though all I wanted to do was sleep all day. Today was Music, I did my mid-term performance and Aced it!! So glad its over with. I love playing the piano, but I'm horrible with tempo and such. He said I did excellent though, so YAY!!
Tomorrow I have my last day of my Orientation and Final, which I might add is COMPREHENSIVE!!! I think I'm going to do ok. I have studied like crazy. I even made Ryan, my husband, who I NEVER ask to help me with studying, because he doesn't like to, help me. He was a good sport and helped me though because it is so much information. Sidenote- I can't even remember the last time I had a comprehensive test, its been that long, and I've been in school for a LONG time.
In other news, my the wonderful house work I did last week is slowly falling in around me because I wasn't home yesterday and today after I came home from class I sleep....so much for being a Proverbs 31 woman. I'm hoping tomorrow I will feel like I do now and I'll be able to get caught back up....well see. I will say Ryan has been helping at least keep things a little picked up and even started the dishwasher for me tonight!

Sick.....
I have had a busy weekend. I babysit on the side and this weekend I babysat Saturday night till midnight, and didn't get to bed till 130 AM. Then I got up this morning at 645 AM and went and babysat from 8 AM- 6PM. I'm usually fine, but I am feeling horrible! Throat hurts, head's congested and my back hurts. Sorry for the woe is me, I really will be fine.
This week is going to be crazy. I have to do my piano mid-term, tomorrow, I have a Final for an eight week class that ends Tuesday, and Thursday start my Jogging class, yes jogging, another reason why I wanted to lose weight. The jogging class was actually my motivation for working out so I wasn't the one that couldn't keep up.
Well I'm going to go to relax and go to bed.
KJV James 5:15 "And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him."

After these messages, we'll be right back
When I was little Saturdays were the days I woke up early to be able to watch cartoons and color. The post title refers to Saturday morning cartoons on ABC in the 90's. They had these claymation figures and before a commerical break they would say, "After these messages, we'll be right back." That was when cartoons were descent and not the trash they are today. Anyways, I found it fitting because it is Saturday.
Last night I finished working on most of my homework. Well at least for the assingments that are do this week.
Aubrey has ballet on Saturdays so this morning, because I was up so late, I decided to workout later. We went to ballet, then came home and I made sure the kids were situated, Aubrey painting and Collin playing games, and worked out- Jillian style. Man it always feel so good to workout! I'm going to work out again here in an hour or so.
I will work on getting my bio up, but until then I will go ahead and post my before and after pics. Let me know what you think!?!?
I also have not given credit to another blogger who jump started my weight loss and healthy eating. Her name is Taralynn McNitt click on her name to go to her blog. She has recipes for Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, snacks, just about everything! She was an inspiration for me and she may be one for you too!!
My favorite verse: KJV Matthew 7:7-8 "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh reveiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."

1 Chronicles 16:11
KJV-1 Chronicles 16:11 "Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually."
So, last night we went to the Bowling Alley for Aubrey's school. They are raising money to do improvements to the school. It was so much fun!! Collin got a strike and Aubrey got a spare. I'm not sure of the total they raised, but once I find out I will post it.
Yesterday I worked out in the morning and today I did also. I didn't think I would like working out in the mornings, because I really LOVE sleeping. But, I have found that it really makes me feel better about myself, like I've accomplished something before the day even begins.
I was feeling so motivated from the workout that I decided that Aubrey and I would walk to Wal-Mart right down the road from our house, probably a mile, maybe less. We got a movie from Redbox, Hugo, for tonight. (Friday's at our house are Pizza and moive night. Instead of sitting at the table like we do everyday, the kids lay out a towel and get to eat in the living room and watch their movie. They really enjoy being able to eat in the living room!) We also bought some groceries and then headed back to the house. Aubrey said she really enjoyed doing it and wants to do it again. I can't even describe how amazing and what an accomplishment it felt to walk there and back.
That's all so far. I have a lot of homework I am going to get started on. I will also try to get my about me section up and weight loss stuff also.
Please let me know what you think of the blog so far. Also, I'm on Facebook, I don't know how to make it where you can like it from here, if you know PLEASE help me. The Facebook page is Working on the Temple, go like it if you like what you are reading!! :)

Update and today
Update for the 28th: I said I was going to workout. Well, confession time, I did not go do my mile. :( I do have a good reason! The bus stopped and let the kids off, Colin rides the bus, but Collin didn't come straight to the house. So 5 mins later I go outside to make sure he's not talking to the neighbor girls, but there were no kids outside. Then I see the bus round the corner, Collin had fallen asleep. This is the second time this happend. Talk about give mommy a scare!! So I talked with him and got some chores done and started making dinner. And that is why I didn't do my mile, but I did do Jillian so that at least counts for something, right?
On to today's things, I have been really stressed lately with school, the kids, etc. But for some reason this week is showing me that everything is going to be ok. (I would like to say that I did pray that He would give me strength to get through this semester. And I firmly believe that is why I have been doing so much better in everything!)
Also, I was listening to KLRC ,a Christian radio station here , and Phillps, Craig and Dean's song "Top of my Lungs" came on. As I was singing it LOUDLY, with the windows down and sunroof open, I realized that this is really what it is about not being ashamed of the LORD and pouring your whole soul into showing it,even if you look "silly." Why today? Why that song? I really don't know. It just spoke to me today in ways I had never heard it before. A great verse is KJV Psalm 31:1 "In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness."
I will be posting my story of weight loss along with pics soon! If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to ask! Also, let me know if there is anything I could change, add, etc.
