Cheeks's Journal, 21 July 2009

Total chaos! We sold our home…and moved out last Tuesday…had movers lined up to help us load into a storage pod…they ended up bailing on us!! So in a panic, we called our friends and family to see who could come help us…thankfully we had a few friends and my brother make the time and came to help us with what seemed was going to be impossible to pull off before the Pod people came back to pick it up later that afternoon! Then the next few days of living on an air mattress, moving misc stuff over to my mother-in-laws house (took quite a few trips), my dad coming over with the truck for the larger stuff that couldn't fit into our tiny cars and cleaned up until 10:30 at night on Thursday…then had the closing on that Friday. Phew! Was good to finally be done…although sad to leave the place that hubby and I started our lives together (he had just bought the place when we started dating).

So now we are at ma#2's house for 3 weeks, until we close on our new place. We have been helping her around the house, mowing the lawn, cutting down tree limbs, and other general maintenance :) She's even been making us healthy breakfast and lunches to bring into the office, and we've made a few dinners and healthy breakfast as well :) Hubby and I also joined the gym, which is in walking distance from ma#2's house, for 2 weeks (they were having a special $20/for two weeks) and so far we've gone 2 out of the 3 days :) Feels good to get back there. We will be setting up a gym in the basement of our new place, so won't be continuing the gym membership past the 2 weeks…but it’s a good kick start to getting back in shape. The scale is packed away with the rest of our stuff, so I won't be seeing what my weight is at. BUT…I am confident that with eating the healthy meals…added exercise that the scale will show a loss. My jeans are already feeling a little looser…sooo we shall see!

Looking forward to some relaxation over the new few weeks, and also getting caught up on my fat secret buddies journals! :)
