zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Odd. I'm busy beyond belief for weeks and weeks and now I find myself today with very little on my hands. In fact the whole week looks dismal. Not a great sign. In fact, a terrible sign. I've been skipping open houses due to work (and yesterday due to just plain laziness) and now my pipeline looks like as dry as the Karoo. I could just kick myself. How does this happen?
In other horrible news, I've gained at least 5 lb. I've been running consistently a minimum of 4 times a week but I have given up my videos (for now). The bad bad culprit is 1) Easter 2) Eating Out. Yes, it's a shame. I ate out so many times last week. I want to say at least 5 or 6 and that type of food just sticks to me ( and everyone I guess). I'm really annoyed that I don't have more discipline when it comes to eating out. I know I should make good choices. All the disgusting Candy in the house is not assisting me in any way. I've also been eating poorly at home (today's breakfast was nutella and pancakes. What was I thinking?)
Mike and I added up our debt. We have over 1 million dollars in debt. Thankfully it is "good" debt and not bad debt but whatever. If feels terrifying to know that in a few short months it will be closer to 2 million once the construction starts. We closed on the house on Friday so this puppy is becoming more of a reality each and every day. Thankfully the sellers wanted to do a rent back until the end of July which gives Mike time for surveys, soil tests, legal descriptions, architects, bids, etc. etc. I'm trying so freaking hard not to put my over controlling and bossy self into the mix. It is so hard. Hard hard hard. I think I'm doing okay though.
Okay, I think a congratulations are in order for myself. Me, me, me. It has been over a year now that I have consistently been working out just about every single week. It's a miracle! The bad news is my knees are starting to ache on my jogs. Both of them. Not too much pain just a dull ache that I know is probably not good news. Shucks. Oh well, yeaaah! It definitely is a miracle.
I spent this morning (and parts of last week) gardening. It is so much fun. I cannot wait to see if the seeds grow and if the flower come out. The best invention ever is container gardening. Don't feel like removing that pea gravel? No problem! Plant a large urn/container with pretty flower and done! I'm so excited. I'm also in pain due to all the gardening. I took some pictures of my oohh soooo cooool lawn furniture. Only in Colorado can you get these 2 shots within a day of each other.
What else has been going on in my little world? Ah YES! VACATION!! I'm such a lucky little wench. November has been slotted for South America with Victoria and July will be the West Coast with MegMoo. I feel very naughty indeed. Wheee!

Oh thank goodness! I thought you'd dropped oout of the blogging world, but I knew if I was patient, you'd come back! Yipee!
Where in South America are you and Victoria going? Is Mike going, too?
Finally, the biggest: CONGRATULATIONS on working out every week for a year! I'm so proud of you. I am impressed. You rock.

Firstly, that is some damn fine lawn furniture. Saw Nina yesterday and she said that Cash actually recognized that. Hilarious. My guess is that pictures do not properly express the beauty of that lawn set. Perhaps you should have me over to give an in-person verdict of the new backyard. :)
I personally could not tolerate your debt number, but as you know I do not have the stomach for the risk. Those who take the biggest risks get the biggest rewards. I will probably be 50 and still going to work while you will probably be 40 and retired for life.
I don't know if I know ANYONE at least among my friends who has consistently worked out for the course of a year. That's fantabulous.
No poker update? :(
