Update

Posted Thursday, July 26, 2007 1:42 PM

Evidently, DH wasn't mad, he just wanted to be involved in the discussion . . . I still think it's weird that I have to discuss buying a new mop or getting some organizational stuff - obviously I'd consult with him about new dishes or furniture, but little

The Dumbest Crap to Fight About

Posted Wednesday, July 25, 2007 11:51 PM

DH just got mad at me because I bought plastic bins for our closet and didn't tell him. I bought two plastic bins to put his shoes/boots in and my boots, etc in (the ones that don't fit in the over door hangers). I didn't tell him because A) it was a

Teaming up for fitness - or not

Posted Wednesday, July 25, 2007 1:12 PM

So DH decided that we could both get up early (6am) and exercise so we wouldn't have to in the afternoons/evenings. I thought it was a great idea because I hate getting up when he gets to lay there and sleep an extra 30 mins. And if he gets up too, I'm

In love with cleaning

Posted Wednesday, July 18, 2007 5:21 PM

I never thought I'd say that. I joined flylady.net yesterday because everyone seems to love it, and I do too. The whole cleaning your sink task seemed ok, but a little silly - I must admit that it gave me such a sense of accomplishment, and every time

Organization

Posted Sunday, July 15, 2007 11:50 PM

I crave it - organization, that is. I hate being unorganized. I started on the office today (for the umpteenth time). It is a sty - not filthy and gross, just stuff everywhere! We dump papers, all kinds of things in there. Our kitchen is bad, too. Our

job interview

Posted Friday, July 13, 2007 11:07 PM

It's been a stressful 36 hours. I had a job interview for a really great job today at 3, and I spent the day and a half beforehand looking at financial reports, brushing up on my financial stuff, and preparing for it. We pretty much didn't talk about

Bad Girl

Posted Wednesday, July 11, 2007 8:22 PM

So I gained 5 lbs last week - houseguests, eating out, and family birthday picnics took their toll. I went to the gym for the first time in about a week and a half, and I took it easy. I didn't want to kill myself so I'd find excuses to not go tomorrow.

4th Fun

Posted Thursday, July 05, 2007 12:11 PM

We weren't really planning anything for the 4th, but we ended up having a great time. DH's friends came down from Richmond, so we went downtown Tuesday night - that was great! It was one of the few times I didn't have to DD and could enjoy myself. But

Super Excited

Posted Tuesday, July 03, 2007 6:56 PM

that I am under 140! I weighed 138 this morning. I don't know exactly how it's coming off so fast lately - I've actually been eating out a lot (which is bad). It would make me nervous that it's muscle if I wasn't working out and doing more active chores
