Fit & fishies
It’s been a busy weekend here at the Chasing Contentment house. We had the Monk/Psych night on Friday evening. Loved both shows. I used Josh’s BBQ Steak & Rice recipe, and Mandy and Josh had the same thing. We pretended to have a big, communal M/P night.
The funny part of that, of course, is that I used chicken and not steak & did Josh’s recipe entirely wrong. But it turned out yummy.
We’re adding it to the menu rotation. And we’re gonna call it Josh’s blah-blah because it cracks us up. Josh’s original version is on the left. Mine is on the right (chicken, you know).
Saturday, I went to get a new filter for the fish tank and ended up buying two new fish, one of whom is huge and awaiting her babies. I had to get a little fishie nursery for her and the babies, so the other fish wouldn’t eat them. And now I’m eagerly awaiting her babies. We got the fish tank for Eliza (since Griff is allergic to pet dander & we can’t have a puppy), but I’m pretty sure I’m the one who likes it the best.
And this morning, Mike saw the Wii Fit advertised in the Target ads. We’ve been trying to get a Fit for weeks to help with Griff’s therapy. Mike threw on some clothes and a cap (it annoys me to no end that men can do that and look perfectly acceptable) and got us a Fit. They’re setting it up now.
I do love times like these.
(Oh, quick update… the Wii Fit determine my BMI to be obese, but my Wii age is two years younger than my real age. A fair swap, I think.)

We got rid of our treadmill and are planning on getting a Wii fit.
I think it will really help my oldest with her balance issues.:)
Did you get one? Do you all love it?
Is it sad that I have no desire for a Wii Fit and really covet Wii Rock Band? Just put a big fat L on my forhead.
My supervisor has Rock Band & says it’s hard. I’m not that coordinated. I can’t even play Guitar Hero with Mike.
I’m so glad you like the Fit… my mom’s been asking me if I’d heard anything about it. (We live our Wii fantasies through my parents!) I can’t wait to tell her it got a thumbs up!
LOVING the Wii Fit. It’s already helping Griff with his balance.
Yeah, that’s still funny. By the way, when do I get a tag?
Haven’t you figured out that daddies don’t get included?
