Home Improvements 

Good morning! 

Henry slept until 7:20 this morning and it was glorious!!! There is such a difference between waking up before and after 7 am for me. At 10 am I am dropping him off at my mom’s and heading to Columbus to my eye doctor’s office to pick out some glasses and hopefully get mine repaired. I have some money on my Flexible Spending Account that I have to spend by Friday. I am pretty happy about it. My glasses are pretty new but I’ve never loved them like my old glasses. 

My doctor is the husband of one of my bff’s from high school so her and I are gonna grab lunch after. It will be a nice outing for the day.  

We are in the beginning stages of a lot of home improvements. One of them is painting all of our downstairs. We went and got samples of the paint and painted spots all over to see if we like the colors we chose. The other thing we are doing is redoing our downstairs bathroom. We went to Lowe’s yesterday and they are supposed to call today to schedule an appointment to come out to our house to measure and find out what we want. We are also getting a new garage door. These are all things we’ve really needed. 

Here are some pics from last week:


We went to the zoo with my mom. 


My great niece Myla spent the day with us. 

We went to visit my bff, Liz, and it was so great to catch up with her. She is very inspiring! You should check her out.  She’s lost over 100 lbs! 


On Saturday, after attending Body Pump for the first time in ages, I had lunch and drinks with my friend Bethie. Our other friends couldn’t make it so I tried to include them as best as I could. 

While I was doing that my inlaws and Craig took Henry to a fire truck event. He loved it! And got to spray the hose!

I also took some head shots of my dad for his company website. Look how cute he is. 


I had to take it because this is what was currently holding the place of his pic. Hahahahaha. 

And Saturday night we had a sleepover with my great niece.  Myla and Henry play so well together. They both have hilarious imaginations and dramatics. 


It was a good week. Going back to body pump was HUGE for my attitude and self esteem. I was really anxious about returning because I feel like a failure because of the weight I’ve gained back. I know it’s just my own mind but I did a lot of thinking this weekend and I hope that I can get my actions to match my goals. ❤️

Also, this week I am making a to do list as far as selling the stuff I want to stuff and getting things out of my house. It’s so full. It stresses me out. And it’s hard for me to get rid of stuff. It’s emotionally exhausting unless I am really in the mood. 

My brother and his family come next week and I am over the moon excited about that!!!! 

Ok, I have to go get in the shower. 

Have a great week everybody! ❤️❤️❤️
