It’s Been a While…

…since I’ve been all random-like. So guess what – it’s time again! But hey, bonus, this has a few pictures! : )

*I’ve joined a little weight loss group through twitter and it’s really helping to motivate me (except for last week while on vacay) since I feel accountable to others. I am part of a “team” and we are trying to lose more weight than 4 or 5 other teams. I am doing pretty well this week and have done some type of exercise every day so far. And there is NO chocolate in my house. This is monumental people.

* Our kitchen is finally complete…well except for the little baseboard thingy’s around the bottom of the cabinets that have yet to be replaced since the new floor was installed (hint, hint hubby). Why do I say this – because our new table came today and I puffy heart, love, love it, and am so glad it’s here!!

(can you see the little monkey poking out behind the laptop?)

*My husband brought me flowers out of the blue on Monday (see them on the table?) For some reason I have been a little “blue” lately and I can’t really put my finger on it (maybe it’s the lack of chocolate…) He of course noticed and was hoping to cheer me up and he did. I love him.

* I SO need to get my hair cut and possibly colored too. I can’t believe I’ve let my hair go dark. I used to be blond and then I wasn’t but I kept up the appearance if you know what I mean. After Little G was born I just let my hair go au naturale and now I wish it wasn’t. Now I feel like if I color it again people will know it’s fake and be like “oh, she’s blond now, wonder how that happened.” Opinions peeps?

*I’ve neglected to mention some Good Mail I have received lately but finally remembered to take a picture.

Steph sent the darling splatter paint picture frame, Yvette send cards to hand out to people that have a picture of my blog header and url – what a great idea! And Debbie sent note cards with the cute flower card. Thanks ladies! Such GREAT mail!

* I LURVE this family A lot! This is my brother Larry, his wife Kelley and their 3 beautiful children, Catherine (7), Grace (5), and Daniel (2 on Tuesday!) Daniel was my nephew that was born at 25 weeks gestation and he is so strong and such a sweet boy. He’s also our Godson, so I am a little partial. They went to the beach with us and that makes me so happy. : )

*We finally had a little repreive from the heat today. It was actually in the lower ’70’s this morning and only got up to 95! OH miracle of miracles!!And… I actually took the boys to the park OUTDOORS and no one passed out. I’m sure it will be back to 100 million degrees tomorrow.

*I am kinda hopin’ that Katie wins SYTYCD. I am not nearly as attached to anyone this season like I was Neil last season (I still miss him…) but I think overall she is the best dancer. And to think they almost didn’t put her through. Woah!

That’s all folks. Have a good one. I believe tomorrow I will summarize the beach trip. Although I pretty much can now. Fish, ocean, sand, kids, sun, birds, pool, etc. But tomorrow I will include some more pictures. For the fun of it. Ok, I’m out, for reals this time…
