Moooo-nday

It's Monday! As if we are all not feeling it this morning without the reminder. When I was going through my Joel Osteen phase, I read his "Every Day a Friday." After reading it, I kind of have a new take on Monday's in general. I try not to dread them too much.

And since it's Monday, it is the only best day of the week to get back on the eating right bandwagon. I can workout for hours everyday and it wouldn't bother me. What bothers me? Limiting the food I shovel in my mouth. And of course, I ate like a garbage truck all weekend.

I am still doing Ripped in 30 this month. My verdict so far? I like The Shred better... and I hated The Shred. But my friend Alexis sent me this Ruffles of Love shirt FOR NO REASON. I love her. I joked on instagram that now I have this shirt, I am just good teeth, big boobs, and twelve 12 inch thighs away from looking like Mama Laughin.



Ignore the back bacon in the picture.

The pumpkin patch field trip went great! He did take off his pants and jump into a wooden box of shelled corn... But he wasn't the kid that peed in the box of shelled corn. Praise the lawd!

And the football game was fun... minus the lack of beer in the stadium and the torrential downpour that caused the game to be delayed. Someone left me a comment on my last post about how I should drink before going into the game because they don't sell beer at UF games. I responded to her in email letting her know that basically 12 year olds can drink in Missouri, so I should be OK.

So we tailgate a little bit and then my diabetic brother needed some food, so we headed into the stadium. It was about an hour before game time, so we thought we'd eat and walk around. I go up to the Grill and order a sloppy jane and a beer.... And no beer is served in the stadium. All apart of the NCAA rules.



We stayed until the 2nd quarter when the pouring rain wouldn't let up and caused the game to be delayed. Alabama won anyway, so my little Butkus was a happy brother.

{And the Cardinals won twice this weekend.... Ohhh Mmmm Geee!!}

My friend, Melanie, is hosting a tattoo linkup tomorrow over HERE.I have one infamous tattoo that most of you already know about, but I will be linking up with Mel anyway. If you have some tattoos, please jot up a post a share. :)

And I apologize, instagramers... You've already seen these pictures. Like my husband said, anytime something happens, all media outlets must be notified!

  1. Yay for your boy not being the one who peed!
    Ugh! The Shred, not something I like AT.ALL.

    I totally thought of you while it was raining all day Saturday here (my house)I wondered if you were getting rained on. At least your team won! :)

    Have a fabulous Monday!

  5. Your halloween decorated Holly pic on your blog scared me girl! Boo!
    All SEC stadiums do not sell beer. Lame. Glad you had a good weekend. And, I too ate like a garbage truck so I am enjoying a bottled water and apple slices at the moment. Yum. Not.

  10. Looks like another super fun weekend! Our school is the only school in the NCAA that can serve beer- we're winners. A loop hole since our stadium is technically owned by the City not the University and Cajuns don't go to games if they can't get booze. Random fun fact.

    Congrats on your first Ruffles shirt! What a sweet gal!! Oh and I love those sunglasses!

  11. I could of been at the MU game. But the boring hubby said no (LOL!!). I would of been cheering for the losing team! But yay for being a CARDS fan. Also our high schools' softball team is headed to state this weekend! WHOO HOO! Been 30 years.

    I have tried to figured out how to change so I can be replied back by email but am too stupid to figure it out! Maybe someday I will get it. Thanks for the info though!

  12. Sounds like a great weekend! I didn't watch one down of the MU game, and so glad I didn't. I was too busy having heart failure during the Notre Dame game. Between that game and the Cardinals game on Friday night, I am pretty sure that my blood pressure was off the charts!

    Today is the day that my fat ass might hit the treadmill and start the couch to 5k, but I am not making any promises.

    Have a great week!

  13. Ugh. I just can't do football sober, so I feel your pain, Hollz. :)

    Also, I'm with you on the not-dreading-the-week thing. Why do people get so weird about Mondays? We were hanging out with my brother-in-law last night and he announced that he was already in "work mode" (at 7pm) and didn't want to go out to dinner because he couldn't enjoy the night any more. He needed to get home and psych himself up for Monday morning. The hell? So we told him to quit being a drama queen and made him come out with us anyway. The way I look at it, you only get two days off--why wreck your Sunday night??

  18. Holly...I seriously laughed like 800 times in this post. Ate like a garbage truck...Back bacon...too many to name. You seriously crack me up girl. Looks like you guys had a fabulous weekend!!! I am also glad I didn't waste money on Ripped in 30. I thought about it after this half marathon, but I may try something else now. Hmm...what to do. Also, you should totally link up one of these fitness fridays girl!!

  21. Yea, but who gets tired of looking at awesome Bama pics? No one! :)

    I can't imagine sitting through that entire game, it was hard to watch.

  22. This is why you sneak a flask of vodka into the stadium order a large diet coke drink 1/3 of it and pour the vodka in (memories of college days!)

    Anywho yes Monday is a great day to start eating right again...well any day is but Monday just sounds the best.

    Here's to back on track! :)

  23. Do you still care about my comments now that you get 407? My finger is tired from scrolling down to the bottom to get a turn. Whew. Funny that you had a Joel Osteen phase. He gives me the creeps, so my hubby will turn him on just to hear me holler. Roll Tide.

  24. Weekends are soooo hard to stay on the right track. How in the hell are you supposed to want to do the 30 day shred on a saturday and sunday. Really, Jillian?

    Oh, I <3 Joel Olsteen and your shirt rocks. Maybe I should get myself one. You said they run small? Is it too small???
