Busy, Busy, Busy!

I really wish I would start blogging more, but I'm happy to report that I have lost 6lbs! I'm going to get weighted in today at my gym to see how well I'm doing now, but I'm so excited! I' have done a good job of keeping meat out of my diet for the most part and I have started cutting cheese out again. As for exercise, I'm going to the gym regularly and ... organizing my house! That's right! I've been doing so much work on the house that it's helping me lose weight!



My big project over the weekend has been to organize my desk:

I used those green berry cartons and the tops of egg cartons for keeping small things together! That's what I'm the most proud of! The real work out came, however, when I had to go through all of the monstrous piles of papers that had accumulated over the last three and a half months! I set up n the dinning room and had piles for all the different kinds of papers and a paper bag for recycling! I spent the better part of the day walking around the dining room! It was fun and rather tiring!

Next week I will start working on meal planning again so I can save money and not have to worry so much about what we're going to eat!

Here's to tomorrow!

o_O Free Time Please???

The last three months have been INSANE! (Caps lock and bold doesn't even begin to cover it!) I have not been sick so many times in such a short span of time for ... I can't even remember a time that I got sick a lot! *Sigh* Every time I turn around, the dishes haunt me and the piles of laundry (dirty and clean) taunt me.

However! I am really enjoying life up here! The snow is a nice change of pace and everyone is far more relaxed! My favorite part of living in Cheney: I have windows in my house! Huge windows! On all sides of the house! In every room except for one! It's wonderful. :^)

As for my diet, I'm finally getting back to vegetarian. It's nice! I've had a lot of fun cooking veggies and looking up or making up new recipes. I'm also having to force myself to cut out dairy because my daughter is showing signs of having an intolerance to milk.

One of my newest projects is to type up my favorite recipes so I can access them easier. It's really nice! But free time is ... nonexistent. Like right now, I could and should be doing dishes or laundry or vacuuming or cleaning or gosh, who knows! But I needed a break! ;^D

I'm figuring out the best way for me to organize meals and grocery lists, and have made up a couple excel documents based off of forms I found on the internet!

So That's what I've been up to lately! I'll update with recipes and other fun stuff!

Here's to tomorrow!
