I have a small problem with my foot. Small, as in, it's a small knot on the top of my foot. Big, as in, it hurts to wear just about any shoes. It's been there a while. I'm thinking a couple of months. And before you flame me - - I've made an appointment with a podiatrist. I can't see them until February 1st. Uh. That's a while. At this juncture, I can only go barefoot or wear my house shoes. I can wear my shoes, but it makes the knot bigger and the pain worse.
Here's the thing. I was pumped about exercising. I figure I can still ride my bicycle with a different kind of shoe. But walking or doing Wii Fit is out of the question.
Mr. B thinks it's a cyst. He's probably right. I'm hoping that, if it has to be removed, it's a simple thing. The thought of having to have it drained makes me want to hurl. As a matter of fact, the thought of a local makes me want to hurt. Shots in the feet suck.
So - - I'm not rocking out the weight loss. Not yet. I plan to though. I've got to squeeze my fat arse into a swimsuit this summer.

I updated the family website. Go check it out when you get a chance. I have a few pictures from Christmas, the Monster Truck show, an incident that occurred around here yesterday and a few of Bella.
Enjoy.

It was tragic...
I caught Bella chewing on this. You can imagine the sheer terror I felt.
Luckily, I've seen enough television, so I was prepared. I immediately put the chewed off limb on ice. (Thank goodness for my cat-like reflexes.)
Now, keep in mind, I'm not trained in this field. I did the best I could with what I had to work with.
He's resting comfortably now. I shudder to think about what might have been had I not been here to attend to him. I think he had the whole "Avatar" thing going for him. If you can't appreciate the graphics, at least appreciate my mad surgical skillz.

Updated Score
She got past us yesterday and got in the house. I couldn't catch her.
She pee'd and pooped on a pair of Justin's shorts that got left on the floor. I thought I lost my mind. I went nuts. I found her on the bed with Mr. B. I grabbed her and threw her into the garage with Bella. She's still out there. She hissed at me the whole way.
I really, really hate her.

Let's make it official...
I am officially putting a hit out on the oldest cat. I tried to get my dad to haul her off today. He said he would not aid and abet. Dang it. I'm this >*< close to taking a freaking baseball bat to her head. She is so pissed about the dog that she is pissing on everything. Everything. She tagged Justin's pillow, my mp3 pillow, the bathroom rug a countless number of times, the floors... I HATE her. I swear, she will never die. She will freaking live forever.
It would be different if this was an isolated incident. It's not. She's peed on stuff of mine since before Mr. B and I got married. She is a one-human cat. She gets mad - - she gets even. And I've had it. Tonight - - she sleeps in the garage with Bella. Bwahahaha! Revenge is mine you old bag.
I hate her.

Back to the grind...
The boys go back to school in the morning. I was ready for this today. The were bickering like crazy. It was driving me crazy. They both went to bed pretty good tonight. Almost. Justin - - I don't know for sure if it was a stall tactic, he was just tired or if it was true - - but he started crying and told me he was going to miss me tomorrow. *sniffle* It broke my heart. If he only knew how he could control me with that stuff. Please don't tell him.
The coffee pot is locked and loaded, the kids apple juices are fixed and I'm about to "hit the hay." I will be a busy little mama in the morning. Groceries, nails, Hobby Lobby... Time is going to fly.
Have an awesome Tuesday.

Priorities
Just mulling them over tonight.
I think mine are WAY out of whack right now. Too much time on Facebook for sure. I had nearly $2 mil saved up in poker chips. I went all in, kind of hoping I'd lose. And I did. I spend WAY too much time playing that game. Enough that the mister has "mentioned" it to me. I'm thinking about a FB game hiatus. Crazy, huh? I need to be scrapbooking more. Cleaning more. Reading more. Playing games with the kids more. Snuggling with the husband more. Training Bella more. Exercising more.
Just something on my mind tonight. Sorry to bore you with it.

Forecast
I just looked at it and unless something changes (which, this is West Texas so that is entirely possible) Thursday is gonna suck. High of 31 and "blustery." Yuck, yuck, yuck.

More movie reviews...
It's Complicated: Loved it. Loved it, loved it, LOVED it. I laughed a lot during this one. Alec Baldwin is hysterical. Steve Martin is a nut. I loved the whole movie. I'm certain I missed a few one-liners during the movie because of all the laughter. This will be a MUST have when it comes out on DVD. Strong A on this one.
Did You Hear About the Morgans: It's only redeeming quality was that is has Sam Elliott in it. I love me some SE. I don't care how old that man is. He is sexxxxxxxaaaaaay. Other than that, this movie sucked. Plus, the only copy they had here in Anytown, USA had a scratch down the middle of the film. I complained about it, which would have thoroughly embarrassed my brother. They said it has been that way since the third day they'd had it. Seriously? And you still charged people to see it? It was annoying. Needless to say, I got a free pass when I left. I give this movie a C-
Changeling: I saw this one for the first time this morning here at home. I had DVR'd it off of a pay channel. Oh my gosh it was sad. So, so, sad. Angelina Jolie delivered an incredible performance. My heart broke for her. I love movies depicting that era as well. I so should have been a product of the roaring twenties. If only it weren't for that nasty depression... I give this one an A-. I don't particularly care for movies that make me incredibly sad or worry needlessly about my children. Still - - it was good.
I haven't decided what I'm watching next. I tried to watch Bridges of Madison County last night. I got maybe a third of the way through it and quit watching. It was too slow going. I've seen it before. And I think I liked it. I just didn't have the patience for it last night. So, I watched a re-run of The Office instead. :D
