Yeah for power and heat!
I'm soo happy to have power back. It was an interesting day yesterday. No phone (cell did not work either) and 2 girls with fevers. I read and read and may I not read like that again for a long while. I did not get to read what I wanted to read or that would have been nice. I'm hoping to finish two books this weekend Fish Out of Water and Dragon Strike. I'm so close to being finished with both. I just need a good hour to finish both. I'm really enjoying Dragon Strike. I'm hoping that things go really good and I'll get that reading time. I can say it was interesting just trying to keep things going yesterday without losing it. I forget how much I use the computer for various things. It is the first time in a long time I have sat without the power on. I have a few things I might stock up on for if there is another time. The lack of cooking things did not help any. I'm just glad that it was not a cold day. That would have made things very bad... I can so that I'm so happy that I did not leave the house that night (sorry people in book club). It was nasty out. I'm also glad that for once I followed what I've been trying to do and did the dishes before I went to bed instead of waiting to do it when I got up.
I have been cleaning and organizing and getting ready for Christine to come and then it did not happen for various reasons. I at least got the things done. I need to put it back into gear. I have lost some of the momentum that I had from when we started. I need to get that back. I should work on some of the project today. I think I'm going to look through the old VHS and see what we would keep and what we would get rid of. Maybe look to convert a few things to DVD. I know we have not looked at some of them in a while. I wish I had a way to covert some VHS to DVD. I know there are things out there that do it, but not sure that I'll get it for the just the few that I want. I'll have to look into it thought. I have hopes to finish up my bedroom soon and more on to other rooms in the house. I need to get the girls room done soon. It needs to have some major work done on it as well. Plus well the rest of the house. I think I'm doing good keeping what is done. I just need to finish.
My fitness this week has been off and on. I want to get back to doing 6 days and no questions about it. I have not done as good as I need to. I was hoping to lose some weight before I had to try on dresses for the wedding, but I guess that is next week. Ahhh... Oh well at least I've lost some weight. I still have 3 months to lose weight and get alterations on the dress if needed. We shall see what happens. I found some new fitness dvds that I want, but they are not out yet. I guess that I'll have to wait for a while. Not really happy about it, but waiting is okay. Yes I do have a few dvds, but then I do know most of them. It makes it not as much fun to do them all the time. I just want to lose enough weight that I am at a certainly weight before my physical. I made so major bad food choices last night. UGH Oh well just have to more forward and not do it any more.
For a while I was doing really good buying food based on a meals planned out for the week. I need to get back to that. It was easy to know what we were having. Plus it was also easier to track my foods. I think I need to push for that again. It was amazing yesterday evening to go to the store and see more of the stuff empty. UGH They were restocking, but not really enough in time for me to get a few things I needed. Oh well that is something for another day. I will work on my food this morning and then go shopping later.
I can't believe that is it only a few weeks before Christmas and I have not started my wrapping. I need to pull out the Christmas paper and wrap stuff even if I can't put it under the tree. The shopping has been done for a long time now. It seems that the time is sneaking up on me. I don't want to be left to wrap it all right before Christmas day. That just really sucks. It will be a fun Christmas this year. I'm not going to let anything get me down. I'm not sure all what is happening, but we shall see how it all goes. I'm hoping that everyone likes their Christmas. You don't always know what people will think of things. I just glad that Christmas will be here and with the hope that it will bring me slightly out of my funk. I think the girls will have a ball this year with Christmas.
Now to start catching up on things that did not get done yesterday.
