Time flies

This weekend went so quickly! Saturday we ended up running a bunch of errands and were gone from the house for over 5 hours. Sunday we were supposed to go to a business meeting, but I was just peopled and erranded out. T went and I opted to stay home and work on laundry, tidying up the house, etc. I still started the week feeling unready. Also, Sunday was cold and rainy and by that evening I wanted to eat all the hot/ cheesy/ spicy things in the world even though I wasn't hungry (but I didn't).

I can't remember if I mentioned it or not, but we need to get the kitchen floor redone. Since my FIL used to own a hardware store, T asked him if he knew anyone that did flooring. Which is why someone from Lowe's is coming today to give me an estimate. And when he went to Lowe's, FIL was talked out of what I want and into something I don't, so I have no idea if the folks coming have ever even installed VCT flooring. Le sigh. I do appreciate his wanting to help - really truly I do. Anyway, we'll see how this goes. We are going 2 places this evening to look at flooring.

Here is the look I am going for:

(Note, both these pictures are from retrorenovation.com, which is an awesome resource on all things mid century home related). I like the way it is neutral, looks good next to warm wood tones, and is super durable (and affordable). Not to mention looks like it belongs in a "mid century modest" home.

I was down a pound from Friday, then went up a pound (what the heck!?!) so basically the scale is being a brat. I was feeling run down and opted to take Saturday and Sunday as rest days and was feeling much better for it yesterday. Yesterday I did the elliptical and this morning I went to the Y for a swim.

Breakfasts this week are Greek salads, lunches are leftovers. Snacks include protein shakes, mandarin oranges, and almonds.

Take care.
