I still think of bloggin...just have not been doing good at it.!

Well hello...it's only been a few months haha. Let me start off by saying Good Morning! It is a beautiful fall day out and looks really cold. I will most likely be spending most of the day inside which it totally fine. I have stuff at home I NEED to get done. Brett and I are leaving Tuesday to go down south to see our families for Thanksgiving. I am so excited because every once in a while I need a break from Yuba City. I miss my family all the time and wish my hubby and I lived closer to them. Although being away has given us a lot of space and the ability to be on our own makeing our own decisions and has had a lot of positives.

A day to myself

I love holidays certain holidays I am alone on. For example TODAY. Its not exactly a holiday but we have the day off work. I went in for a few hours since no one was there I got a lot done and didn't have to take PTO. Then I ran a few errands did some cleaning (need to do more) and now I am trying to get some motivation to go to the gym. I haven't been it 2 weeks and the gym is closed tomorrow so I need to just suck it up and go. Then I will have the rest of the day to myself to relax!!!!!

FEELIN LARGE

I have been feeling a little big lately. Can you say BLOATED? I am really hoping that this heat helps me eat a little better. I just don't feel healthy when I eat. So in honor of my fat A$$ I went on a run/walk and then cooled off with a little swim in the pool. I still feel big and kinda gross and unhealthy but at least I am trying...one small step makes a difference.

It summer and I've been slacking on the posts but not the home improvement. My dad has been visiting the last 4-5 days and we have been busy doing some home improvement. The first task on the list was to fix my kitchen. On a cold rainy night in January Brett and I thought hmmm lets paint our kitchen red. Well lets just say it was a really really bad idea. I can not paint WELL and when someone cannot paint WELL red is not the color to go with. I can easily cross PAINTER off the list of possible jobs in my future. So thankfully my dad came up from so cal to paint the kitchen off white. WOW what a difference it makes. I love it. While he was up we also installed a ceiling fan, new outlets, painted the living room and other small stuff. I feel like there is still so much to do around my house but things are definitely getting better. My dad leave tomorrow and then the countdown begins till the 4th of July.

ready for vacay

Tonight I lost a little momentum. It was awkward from the start...I came home fro work and didn't want to go to the gym and then the mail came containing 3 movies from netflix..basically all the discs from season 7 of "The Shield" I watched one and then went on a 10 min. walk. I think I am just ready for vacay....ohhh when will it come.

Awwwww me time!

As I type this I have to say how relaxed I am. As I lay here in my pretty clean house I am listening to the hubby play piano. I love when he plays. t relaxes him at night and me. Today was a good day...I feel motivated! I did pretty good eating and went to the gym with Brett. He knew wasn't really feeling it so we did a quick workout together. Now I am just winding down before I do some reading and watch a movie. I leave for Kern in a week and can not wait. I feel like I need to just get away sometimes.

A WEEK LATER

Well jeez it's only a week later and I finally am doing my 2ND blog. I can't get to discouraged however since a friend of mine (Jamie) created one for me last year and yes a year later I still didn't create anything myself on it. So needless to say I am making improvement. I went on a great walk with Jame today and ran errands all over town. I have really been trying to be a healthier person so I ate pretty good but now I feel all bloated. Darn fiber and fruit.

I think if I can really watch the beer and sugar intake I will be on my way to loosing a few pounds and toning up!
