As most of you know I work in the daycare of the local gym here. I work 3 hours 2 days a week. I get paid almost nothing, but I get a free gym membership for the whole family and free childcare when I am working out. It is a great way to get out and still have Hailee right with me. It has been a great opportunity for me and for her. We get to swim whenever we want and have access to the tennis and volleyball courts! I have made new friends and tried things I never thought I could do, like step aerobics and funny thing is I actually like it! My favorite instructor was in Costa Rica all last month and I was so sad the whole time she was gone! I have taken her twice a week for a year now and so it threw my whole routine off!!
It has been fun to get to know more people as well. There are so many LDS people that work there. But I have also got to know so many people that I have would not have met otherwise.
It has been so healthy for me to work there, not only for my body but for my mental health as well. I was having a horrible day today in all aspects of my life. I usually take a class Wed morning, but I missed it and so I went after Hailee's nap. I was in a horrible mood when I got there, but after an hour of working out I felt so much better and barely can remember why I was so grumpy in the first place. I really think that working out keeps me sane! You would think thought with all this working out that I would be where I want to be physically, but that is another issue! :) At least it is a way to relieve stress, or at least a way I can talk about on a public blog. :) Ha Ha!
It is funny what can become such blessings in our lives and working and working out at the gym had been such a great one in mine! I think I might go crazy without it!

I totally agree. Going and working out in the mornings keeps me sane! Plus I feel a lot better physically and about myself when I work out. It is great to get away from the kids for an hour too and do something for myself. I have found that I get two for one when I get up and go to the gym. I get to workout and Jody feeds the kids breakfast and gets them dressed. By the time I get home Cohen is ready for his morning nap and Ammon is ready for the day! I love it. If we do childcare at our gym we only get a free membership so consider yourself lucky to get free childcare and a little pay!
Yes we are huge big brother fans! At first I loved season six people and I still do like them. But I am getting sick of James and though Janelle does dumb things I think she is hilarious. I can't stand Danielle and use to not be able to stand "chill town" but Will and Boogie are growing on me. They are hilarious and pretty smart players. What do you guys think?
We pretty much feel the same way you do. I do like Janelle, even though she made a dumb move last week. Tyler likes James, he is too whiney for me. I totally agree with the CT thing. I think Boogie and Will are so funny. They are great players and the others are getting played as well. Didn't they watch past seasons! I hope that James goes tonight, but I have a feeling it will be Kaysar. Danielle is like nails on a chalkboard to me! Tonight should be good though!
I need to try your gym going method. I would love to be done working out for the day and have Hailee ready as well! Nice!
Shame on Tyler, James is a snake! I hate how he bad mouths Janelle all the time. I was sick tonight after Kaysar was voted out and Erika one HOH. UGH!!! Sad that I get so into this but what else do I have? No one knows that Janelle can't compete in the veto competition if/when she is put on the block but I don't think that will change anything. Maybe she or Howie can when that new prize, whatever it's called. I hate that the floaters are calling the shots right now.
Ok..I kinda have a spoiler for you. I went to see if I could vote for that prom queen thing online and saw something. I am not sure you want to know though..it is not about a nomination or anything. Just a CBS screw up. Let me know of you want to know!! I think it will make you happy. Man I am glad I am not the only one who gets into this. I had to wait till Tyler went to walk the dog to vote so he wouldn't make fun of me all night! :)
tell me more!
So remember when Howie was all ticked off because his buzzer didn't work. Well I guess the whole thing was a techincal malfunction and they are redoing the whole HOH thing! So Ericka is not the new HOH! WOW!
I am soooooo excited! I hope it's true. that makes my day!!! Aren't I pathetic? I voted last night too.
I love the gym too and I think it's a great way to relieve stress! I need to start going to one here, but memberships are so expensive and I need to be committed if I'm going to spend that much! So great you get free memberships for the whole fam.
Aubree- Kelly told me about the whole Big Brother HOH messup and I was sooo excitd...I am a total B.B. fan too!!! I like Janelle a lot but I think Chilltown has become my new favorites. I cant wait to find out what happens on Sunday!!
I can't wait till tomorrow!!! I love BB. I think the guys from Chilltown are so funny. I like Janelle a lot. I think she has an uphill battle though. :( Tyler likes James though! Boo on him!
Hey Aubree-I check out your blog once in a while too! Makes me feel like a peeping tom! Love how you and my girls are such BB fanatics!! hope you are all well-Tahoe sounded great!
