This week I found myself awake more often than asleep FINALLY! I had a few days where I was feeling so good that I made a grocery list for two weeks, planned meals, and thought the food actually sounded good. I should not have gotten so excited...Got home from work today, took a nap, had horrible food aversions and Justin had to go grocery shopping alone :(....I thought I was going to be super star wife but instead he was the super star, I don't know what I would do without him. Hopefully it was just a case of the Mondays and I will be good to go tomorrow. I am loading up of fruits and veggies, doing light work outs and getting ready for this Mexico trip. I do not care how tired I am we are going to enjoy every second of this trip <3
