to go or not to go...

I can't decide if I really want to work out today...I have slacked off the past couple of weeks, although my bike riding has made up for some of the slacking, I always have a hard time getting back to the gym.
I would rather go home and lounge around and pity myself for the awful dinner I have to prepare tonight. I don't think it's awful and Nash doesn't think it's awful, but Luke is not a big fan of grilled cheese sandwiches and soup. Although I do always buy him hearty soups and put 2 slices of cheese on his sandwiches, it's just doesn't seem to make up for a mediocre meal. Personally it is one of my favs.
However my concern is more on what will I fix tomorrow night, considering we have nothing but chicken nuggets...it just might be one of those nights that all three of us are literally eating something different, and I'm ok with it, as long as I can have my Marco's pizza by Friday night :)
I just tried to eat my non-perfect banana for a snack and I couldn't do it. So I'm hungry and I need to take the rest of my energy shot, but those aren't good to take on an empty stomach, or at least not for me.
It's already HOT here, today's high was 86, so much for Spring weather, it's already summer now. And that means only one thing, AC will have to be turned on and the electric bill will sky rocket.
My least favorite thing about the summer's around here.

Thank goodness Thursday is pay day and thank goodness Luke gets paid this week, I really need to replenish our savings. The fact that it cost Luke $60 to fill up his gas tank makes me sick.
I hope gas does not creep any higher then it is now, Luke seems to think his car is worthy of the most expensive gas, and I say in a recession when gas prices are rising, your car can take unleaded and like it just as well :)
But I don't think he would agree with me on that one.
I cleaned out my closet last night, put away all my boots and what little long sleeved shirts and sweaters I do have and added to my never ending pile of garage sale/goodwill pile.
And I have realized that I need more clothes, but in order to get more clothes I need more money.
So my plan is to get basic summer "staple" items as far as pants, I don't really wear shorts, so no need for those, but shoes and tops. And then maybe breakdown and go to Plato's Closet and pray that I might be able to get some $ out of some of our old clothes, I always doubt it though, especially right now, because that is what everyone is doing right now.
I wish I could just go to The Loft and go on a shopping spree, and then stop at H&M and get some basics from there. BUT not anytime soon.
Looks like I need to go back to trying to win that dang lottery and hoping for the best every where else.
Would really love to go back to what I was getting paid before the pay cuts, as well as being able to work a full day on Thursdays and show up to work on time on Monday's and Fridays... or course these all being my issues not because of work.
When is it time to put Nash in pre-school and how much is THAT going to cost?
He is talking up a storm right now and I just taught him yesterday how to say cracker and please.
He seems to be so smart and so out going, I think he has Luke's personality all the way.
He is definitely the joke-ster and doesn't take me or my discipline skills seriously at all.
This could work in my favor the older he gets, but for now, I wish he would listen when I tell him "no" to playing in the dogs water bowl and trying to eat the dog food. And "no" to playing in the trash can or pouring his milk all over him self and on the ottoman and then proceeding to rub his hands in it.
He would stay outside playing in the rocks all night if I"d let him... he just loves it and loves running around out there.
