This is one for the books! (Adult Content)

Here is the setting:
I am in my bedroom last night in what I refer to as "Mommy's reading nook". My daughter pops in and plunks down on the bed with a magazine. "This is one of the things I want for Christmas". So I say, "Get a pen and circle it and leave it on the desk." I barely even look up from my computer. Then I hear a strange little humming noise and look up horrified to see my 12 year old daughter with my "massager" pressed up on her forehead!!!!!! I am totally not kidding you! This was a moment that I never, ever could imagine facing. She says, "What is this?" to which I reply, "It is for sore muscles, rub it on your shoulder." Okay, that isn't the worst, hold on, hold on tight, this gets better.
Her best buddy was spending the night because his mom had a work thing. (yes, her best buddy is a 12 year old boy). He came into the room and asked her what she was doing. Insert more horror than possibly imaginable right here! She hands him my "massager" and tells him it feels good on your forehead. So, there I am in the corner in my chair just staring at these two playing with my "massager". Gets better here.....
He takes the "tool" and goes out to the livingroom to share this great thing with my 14 year old son! Who doesn't like the way it feels on his face but likes it on his leg. So now the three of them are passing around the thing. I remain calm.
It is 9:30PM at the time and I have to text my friend, whom I acquired the "tool" with a few weeks ago from a place called "Show World". We luckily chose to start "small" and "purple" and something that more closely resembled a mag-light than a penis! This is an excerpt from my text to her:
"OMG! My daughter is rubbing the "bedazzler" (don't know why we called it that BTW) on her neck after pulling it out of my drawer and now just handed it to RJ who is rubbing it on his forehead! Holy mother of God! I can barely stand this! I think I peed my pants a little bit, God I hope you are awake still this is good stuff."
To which I get the response this morning at 5:00AM
"OMFG! What did you do? I told you to hide it!!
ME: "I didn't tell you the best part!!! RJ grabbed it off the couch and said, "I am bringing this up to bed with me!" " What could I do? I just let him.... Now I guess I have to tell his mom today that I let him go to bed with my vibrator. Think he will be able to spend the night again?"
FRIEND: "You know when they realize someday what it was.... and they will.... they are all going to need therapy!!"
ME: "I better check that they don't bring it to school.... LOL!"

I haven't laughed like that for ages! Good times, good times......

My Scale is Not Broken!

I had a fill a week ago, my second, and it was just a 1.5cc add. Still really can eat anything if I was to put it to the test. I did vow on Saturday to stop the "snackies". I am very diligent about what I am eating, right down to these "snacks", but the whole feeling full seems to be eluding me.

Three meals and lots of liquids should do the trick. So 3 days into that plan and yahoo! The scale moved finally after 2.5 weeks of staying put. I am down 2.5 pounds and now solidly in the 170's, not hovering by the 180's! (I can't even remember being this weight ever!!! It seems that I blasted right into the 200's where I sat for many years).

I also had a great workout with Miss Emma on Sunday morning! I hope we can make it a regular thing. She took me swimming and made me do laps. OMG! I was so tired! Just keeping up with the breathing and trying not to have her lap me in the lane, I thought I was going to die! My son reminded me that ski season is coming (he snowboards) and that is what he is going to do to whip me up there on the mountain. I just am so happy that I am getting in shape to keep up with them and that they actually want to take part in my fitness quest.
