Instead, I received this several hours before the concert was supposed to start:
Bummer...We have been looking forward to this for a while now. Thursday, this past week, we were hit with a little "wintery mix". It started sleeting, then snowing, and in a matter of about an hour or so things began to get icy. I got things finished up at work as soon as I could and was out of there. It was crazy around town and took me over 2 hours to get home!! The first hour was spent just trying to get out of the area I work in. I swear I didn't go a whole 5 miles that first hour. Once I finally got out of the traffic around work, I was able to take some back rounds home. They were a little conjested but not as bad as the highways and main roads in town. After finally getting home, I took a bathroom break, loaded up my car and drove another 4 hours down to Mississippi.
Apparently, Rascal Flatts felt my pain. They had played a concert in Austin, TX Thursday night and were unable to make it to New Orleans for the concert I was supposed to go to on Friday night because of "icy road" conditions. I was bummed but all things happen for a reason so it will be okay. They are supposed to announce a reschedule date and hopefully we'll still be able to go, if not - we can get a refund.
I've been really trying to do well with working out (alot more than normal) and really watching what I've been eating. I've done good so far and have lost a few more pounds but it all when to you know where this weekend. HA! I mean, how can you be in New Orleans & the Coast of Mississippi and think about eating "healthy"...I mean come on. Thanks to these few things: Ralph & Kacoo's, Cafe Du Monde, & Pat O' Briens;

I think I've found those few pounds I lost. HA! But, I'm back home now and it's time to get busy and back into the routine of gym(cardio & weights), Zumba, and 30-day shred and send them back on their way!
