life
the new gym near our house opened on saturday, so gavin and i went on sunday, and i went again yesterday. i skipped today since it was nice out and i just took a long walk with the dog instead. finn enjoys spending time in the kids club there, so it's pretty much perfect. i can easily just drop him in there and work out for 45 minutes or so, and it's nice for both of us! i was pretty worried about my weight following the cruise - we DID work out in the cruise ship gym 8 times on a 12 day cruise, but we were also eating a three course meal every single night for dinner! anyway, a day or two after we got back i managed to convince myself to get on the scale. i told myself if i gained two pounds or less, i could live with it. instead, i lost a pound. hurrah!
gavin and i have a lot of stuff going on right now, only some of which i can currently talk about. right after we got back from the cruise, gavin flew out to las vegas to audition for jeopardy. i think it went really well, and we're both hoping he'll get a call maybe for august. he's super smart, sometimes annoyingly so, and he's personable and outgoing, so i think he'd really be perfect. i have my fingers crossed. the other stuff, i'll post about when i can, hopefully in a month or so. things are really going well in a lot of ways, though. it's good.
i only wore my bikini once on the cruise, but i DID wear it!
i'm still not happy with my lack of abs, but i've made a ton of progress and overall, i think i look fine. i'm not ever going to be a fitness model, but i'll take what i can get. :) i'm actually most pleased with my legs - with all my walks and running, my thighs have toned more than i ever expected and i'm pretty happy. i'm not in love with the gym, but i do enjoy working out, for the most part, and i always feel good once i've done it. i'm hoping to keep it up for the long term. i want to be fit and healthy as i age, and hopefully i can age gracefully!
having a bbq with my parents for the 4th, which i'm looking forward to. before they moved here, it was always just me, gavin and finn, so we never bothered to do anything. i'm excited to grill out, make s'mores, play with some sparklers and just have a fun time.
that's all for now. cheers!
