We have a mystery in our house to solve. The case of the missing deodorant. My deodorant disappeared off my dresser sometime on Monday. Tuesday and today I was able to scrape enough out of the little plastic oval to keep me from smelling. Fitness boot camp starts bright and early. I am afraid that I have scraped the last of it out. I asked Erin to please throw my deodorant back down over the balcony. She insists that she doesn't have it. I asked her what she has been wearing to school all week. She replied "nothing, I couldn't find any." OK it's bad enough that the antibiotics that she is on is giving her horrible gas, let's ad body odor to that lovely aroma. She told me she farted in computer class and a girl said "Oh my God, What is that smell? Erin said "Oh that's terrible, What is that?" I hope that girl doesn't read my blog{I hope Erin doesn't either} I guess I will be going to fitness boot camp smelling like old spice. I will be stopping by Walgreen's tomorrow and stocking the house full of deodorant. Is it not bad enough that I never have tampons, conditioner,mascara or eyeliner?

I got a lovely picture of Lauren in the mail. It was a fabulous action shot of her car running a red light.You gotta love those camera's at stoplights. I can't tell you how many yellow/red lights that I have rushed through and thought,"did they catch me on camera.?" I have been lucky so far,my daughter didn't fare as well. The ticket is $100, on the bright side there are no points, so my insurance rates won't go up.

Part of my fitness boot camp is journaling my food intake. The amount of calories that Satan said I should be eating is almost double what I normally eat. Of course we have guidelines as to what types of food we can eat. So many carbs, fats, proteins etc. It is a real pain adding everything up. It will either work or I will gain 10 lbs this week from eating so much. Tonight I ate four thin mint girl scout cookies trying to get closer to my calorie/fat gram total for the day. I'm thinking there has to be something wrong if I am eating girl scout cookies so Satan doesn't yell at me for not eating enough calories. Maybe she will leave me alone tomorrow since I can't find my deodorant.

Becky AKA Satan in spandex was actually pretty nice this morning. Isn't that why Eve ate the apple, Satan tricked her. I'm sure her dark side will be emerging more and more as the week unfolds. We started "boot camp" by turning in our paperwork, then she measured us with a tape measure, like measuring wasn't bad enough next she came after me with a hard plastic pincher and measured my body fat. I think giving birth is less painful then that nifty little gadget. I wonder if she can walk with that body fat measuring device up her perfectly shaped tush. I'm thinking that next time she comes near me with that she may want to run. Considering I did my mile in 10 minutes 17 seconds she could probably just jog and I wouldn't catch her.

The nurse at Erin's pediatrician's office called me at work to check on Erin. I had to text message her at school to see how she was feeling. I wonder how many mom's communicate with their highschoolers during the day like that. If I get caught I might get detention. Erin texted me again at 2:30 to tell me her calf was swollen but it didn't hurt. I called the doctor and they wanted to see her right away. My windshield wipers don't touch the windshield on the drivers side and we had a little spell of freezing rain. I had a tiny patch that was clear in between my dashboard and steering wheel. I had to duck my head down to see. My neck muscles were killing me from doing sit ups and push ups. I looked like a turtle in pain driving a big blue van. I wonder if the cars behind me on the highway wondered if anyone was in the van since my head was ducked down. Erin's doctor looked at her leg and said that the swelling was actually OK. She considered changing her antibiotic but decided against it. She said to keep in touch if any other new symptom's appear. I told Erin that if she was a horse we would have taken her out back and shot her already.
