Well, I got an email yesterday that my favorite fur buddy at pet shelter got adopted over the weekend. It was at that point that I realized I might never be able to foster a child, as I was sad/glad for Virgo. But man how I will miss her!!! She became the only reason I went there....I met her in Feb 2014. She had been at the pet shelter since she was a puppy...and I think she was 1 year and 2 months when I met her. So she was over due for an adoption! I wish her the best.
We had contractor 1 come out and look at what renovations we want to do. How I wish there was a blueprint already done that I could point to and say "We want that one." But life just ain't as simple as that when you're talking renovations/additions to existing home. I anticipated 30 minutes....which turned into 1 hour and 30 minutes. Which I deem as good. He listened to what we were wanting, took our little drawing of what we wanted and said he'd come back out Sunday with a drawing for us to look at. Contractor 2 comes out tomorrow morning at 7am. So at least we've begun....
Hubby and I did yoga/stretches last night -- 10 minutes worth, and boy howdy...this workout holds the moves longer. Makes a difference for sure in my arms! Hubby liked this workout and I believe he has downloaded to his phone so he can do in his office during the day. I can barely contain my joy!!! :) He's doing whatever I have leftover at the end of the day. He's challenged with changing workout positions, so the need to find a slower paced workout can be a little challenging, but fortunately, most have a pause button. I did a Popsugar workout this morning -- 10 minutes of strength and I'll tell you, it was hard with the 5lb weights.
OHHHH, almost forgot text buddies....I NEARLY (Oh I came SOOOOO CLOSE!) had to text someone last night. I've been wanting crackers -- like the peanut butter filled crackers, which are not good for me and not whole wheat options. I literally leaned on the table and looked at them (envision a buzzard leaning over their dinner), I reached a finger out to touch them and graciously pulled my finger back. I didn't need them. Ate a snack size bag of salted peanuts instead. Trust me, it was the lesser of the two evils....cause with the pack of crackers, there was going to be at least 2 packets eaten had I started that foolishness. WHEW!!!!
So there IS progress going on here.
