Busy busy

Things are continuing along well here. The boy and I walked the dogs last night (Bess is over at my mom’s so we only had 3. She goes over there for a day or so during the week so she gets more outdoors time as we no longer leave her outside when we aren’t home.) We had our kick off and official pedometer start yesterday afternoon for our “fit-n-fun” and I already got a lunch voucher – they handed out 2 for the people with the most steps and I had over 17000! So I am having a grilled chicken sandwich and side salad today – yum!

We have a lot of fun plans for the weekend – we may meet friends for dinner tonight, tomorrow we are helping a friend move, Sunday is yard work for the boys, groceries & food prep for me, and then we’re headed to the lake to clean the boat. I haven’t told my hub yet that he will be helping the boy with the yard work rather than me, but I don’t see him doing the food prep for the week! :-O

We were planning to go to a medieval event next month about 3 hours away. We really didn’t want to just head up for the day, so we asked our good friends R&M if we could stay at their place. Instead they paid our way for the entire weekend – cabin fee, entrance fee, and dinner Saturday night. I cried. The generosity and quality of friends … it just amazes me at times. I feel so lucky.

Anyway, despite the bad news earlier in the week and the need to ration, things are moving along surprisingly well and I continue to feel good and feel like I am accomplishing a lot in terms of moving toward improving my habits & health. I took a few steps backward, but that’s okay, that’s life.
