So.

These past few weeks have been nuts. Gunner and I have been taking turns being sick, work has been so stressful at times that I can't even deal, and the progress on the construction of our house has come to a grinding halt. Our plumbing has backed up, we've fixed it, our microwave broke, we bought a new one... Etc... Like I said. NUTS! Mentally I'm fried.

I've welcomed the past two ice days with open arms. It's been a much needed time to wind down from the latest series of unfortunate events. 

Planning for the future is so hard. It's even harder when you feel trapped. I feel like we are never going to get out of this house. The construction is never ending, and sadly, all this house has become is a money pit. It has almost ruined me of ever wanting to buy a home again.

I know things will get better eventually, but I have to admit, being positive is feeling next to possible at the moment.

Today in Pictures

Here is my day in pictures:




Today was fairly uneventful. I woke up, we got dressed, drove to Starbucks and bought a White Chocolate Mocha Decaf with Soymilk while Gunner chose the vanilla flavored milk.

I also went to the gym in the first time since school began. I was surprised how quickly I was able to adapt considering I haven't gone in nearly 6 months. My diet is going to be my biggest struggle. I can eat fine all day long, but my biggest vice is fountain cokes and alcohol. I can at least find a lower calorie alternative in alcohol (oh hai there Corona Light!), but sodas? I DEPEND on those to wake up in the morning! Sooo... I had a packet of Greenberry Shakeology instead, a much better and healthier alternative!

Monday I begin the challenge group for Piyo! I'm pretty excited to be a part of this group because it's easier and much more fun than doing it alone!

Tonight, I've been reading The Daily Five by Gail Boushey & Joan Moser. We are having a two-day workshop on this book starting on Monday! NOT looking forward to changing my routines and procedures mid-year, but it has to be done! Although I do highly recommend this book!
