Weekend in Review
Oh I had such a lovely weekend full of fun. I got into the beta for a game I've been dying to try for awhile now and it was... well, no that would be breaking the NDA and I won't do that as I do not want to take a chance on losing my account at launch. All I am legally able to say about it is that, yes there is a beta and yes I am in it.
But other than the game, the rest of the weekend was pretty win as well. I got the living room really clean and all of the floors downstairs as well. I also got that weird "thing" on the stove top off of it - I think it might have been boiled over rice now that I got it off.
I also pulled the Kitchenaid out and made a batch of cookie dough. Tonight I will wrap the cookie dough into individual portions and freeze it - I ran out of time yesterday. That worked so very well last time as anytime we wanted cookies, all I had to do was pre-heat the oven. And it kept us from eating a couple of dozen cookies in once sitting, which is what happens when I bake an entire batch. We have no will-power.
We also both started tracking our food intake, which should go a long ways towards helping us control our eating. Nothing slows you down like having to admit what you ate.
The downside to the weekend was that my hip pain is back and really bad. I'm mostly blaming the new desk at work since I can't seem to get comfortable at it yet. I'm still trying to play with chair height for my legs and arms. I'll do some stretching over the course of this week and see if I can't get myself back together again.
