Monday Update

This weekend was a whirlwind. It literally flew by. We spent all Friday evening finishing moving furniture and tearing up the carpets. Today the floor guy comes and starts sanding all the floors. By Thursday our hardwood floors will be done. He told us we should not start moving in furniture in until Saturday, but Ryan is in a wedding on Saturday and then Sunday is Mother's Day. It looks as if our house will be in disarray for a few extra days. We took several pics of the living room with carpet, for some reason we neglected to take pics of the hallway, our bedroom, and the spare bedroom also. I will post the before pics of the living room and the after pics of all the rooms next week sometime so stay tuned. :)

This past week my friend Tricia and I started the Couch to 5k. I heard about this from Whitney here in blogger land. We successful completed our first three workouts for week 1, tonight starts week 2. I am not a good long distance runner, I just can't believe that in 2 months I should be able to run 3 miles straight. As for getting in shape I am also back to following Weight Watchers. The pounds are not coming off as fast as I would like, but I am determined to stick to it. I would like to reach my mini-goal by June 19th. Then is when I plan to go through all of my clothes and get rid of whatever does not fit. It seems I have three sizes of clothes. My skinny ones, my regular ones, and my chubby ones. I am determined to get in those skinny clothes! Wish me luck and strength. Another motivation is boating season starts up Memorial Day weekend and I want to feel comfortable in my swimsuit. I am so excited for some fun weekends at the lake.

On another note the new job is going well. I am experiencing the learning curve, but this one is definitely slower paced than my old job and I so glad for less stress.

While the floors are getting refinished we are staying at Ryan's parents. It should be an interesting week to say the least. Please pray for me. :)

Well another random blog from me. Hope everyone has good week!
