Okay, let's see if I can write an entry in 20 minutes while the tv's on. Challenge accepted!
*One night last week, I got dinner at a little pita place near us. While I was waiting for my sandwich, I noticed there was a little box on the counter where you could enter a raffle to win a 7-day membership at Goodlife Fitness. I figured 'why not?' and filled out the form. Well, I actually won! I got a call the other day from the gym telling me I'd won, and I went in to see it last night. It looks pretty nice, and there are massage chairs and a sauna and all kinds of classes and stuff. Gyms have always kind of intimidated me, but the free trial membership is a nice way to test it out, take a few classes, see what I like and if I think I'd actually use a full membership. As a member of the teachers' union, I actually get like a 40-50% discount on a year long membership at Goodlife, which obviously is a really good deal, but still, I'd like to make sure I'm actually going to go before I fork over the money. So! I might be going to a gym soon? The world might end, haha. I don't think I've mentioned it in here, but I've actually managed to get into an every-other-day routine with the elliptical at home, which I've been keeping up since the end of August, so maybe me going to the gym isn't a totally crazy idea. I'm going to try out a yoga class tomorrow (I don't even need my own mat or anything!), and maybe even a spin class later this week (gah!). If any of you gym-goers have tips for me, they're certainly welcome!
*Remember how I asked for help putting together my mixbook album about our wedding? Well,
yummykit is totally my hero and she did all the arranging and made the whole thing look incredible! It got here in the mail yesterday, and it's so pretty! I can't wait to show it to people when they come over. Kit, you are the coolest person in the world! :D
*My friend Becca had her baby on Wednesday!! Tessa was 7 lbs, 8 oz and looks adorable from the two pictures I've seen so far. I can't wait to meet her, but obviously, I want to give Becca a chance to rest and get settled with her before I barge in on them. I'm super excited for all of them, because yay baby! :D
*Claudia gave me some words to talk about for that word meme thing, and I will do that, buuuuuuuut it's now 9:58, so not tonight. OH, and our ceiling is leaking again. In theory, someone's supposed to come out tomorrow morning to take a look at it, buuuut in theory, that person was also supposed to call me tonight to set up a time, and I haven't gotten a call yet. So we'll see what happens. For now, I must sleep. Tomorrow: hopefully showing someone all the water damage, work, starting our Christmas cards (will be asking for addresses soon!), and maybe trying a yoga class! Hope you're all having a good week, friends!
