HOTT!!!! OMG, it is so freakin' hot!!! It was up to like 95 again today! With no A/C, pool, or anything! Glad it's supposed to start cooling off a little this week-- at least down into the high 70's to low 80's.... that's more comfortable.
So, my sister and I took her 3 kids out to the Mountain Festival today. We realized that it's not the same anymore... not like it was when we were kids... The main part of the festival is about having vendors who hand make their crafts set up booths to sell things in the city park. There are also food booths hosted by a variety of different organizations. For both my sis and I, the crafts are nice to look at, but not normally anything we end up buying, and the food is good (I did buy a cinnamon elephant ear ;0), but now that we have been gone so long, we don't know anyone out there anymore. I think when we were younger, one of the things about the festival was just meeting up with friends and hanging out. Not the same, and today was so warm that her kids did not have a good time-- but, all in all, it was nice to go out there and at least spend some time together.
Still haven't made a decision on whether to apply for the other position at work. Was talking to a friend in a different department who said there is going to be an opening coming up in his department towards the end of the year/ beginning of next year, and I wouldn't mind being in that department, either, so big decisions ahead of me....
Hubby had a long work week... the only day he got off at a decent time was Thursday for our son's birthday dinner. Every other day, he started at 5 or 6 am and worked until anywhere from 9 to 11 pm. He even had to work Saturday from 5 to 4... Nice thing about it, though, is that he got like 36 hours of OT.. Should be a nice check, even with taxes taken out!
Still trying to sell two gas guzzling vehicles... He actually had calls on both of them today, so we'll see if anything turns out. That would sure help out a lot, too. Right now, we have 5 vehicles in our driveway/garage including our daughters car. It's crazy!!! Plus, we could use the moolah :)
Tomorrow is weigh in day. Probably be back up a little again.. Aunt Flo came to visit, and I have had WAY too much of the wrong foods... Had DQ for lunch yesterday, including a blizzard, then went out to Olive Garden with hubby last night, although I only ate 1/2 of what I ordered. Made french toast this morning, then had half of a HUGE elephant ear (my niece threw away the rest when I went to the bathroom... I was going to bring it home for the kids!). We are having chili for dinner, but hubby wanted regular ground beef instead of the ground turkey, so that's not going to be great either.
My resolution:
Starting tomorrow, I am back on counting points!!
I cannot back track like this. I think partially it's because he's back and is not being careful AT ALL!! I am planning on getting up with him in the morning and hitting the gym before I get going for the day. Hoping to get more into the habit again... I have a lot of toning to do!
That's it for today. I'll post an update tomorrow!
