I am with you Jenn, cleaning the house for Thanks giving. Washing walls and windows, polishing wood furniture. The hardest part is putting all my craft projects away because I work on the dinning table. This is the first year that I am hosting Thanks giving dinner. Other years I have had the family over for New Years day but the kids complained because they always went out for new years eve and wanted to relax the day after. I used to make scalloped potatoes and ham with assorted vegetable dishes and several desserts. Now I have to cook a turkey and I have never cooked one before. Should be interesting.
Thanks giving is the second week end in October for us Canadians. I better get busy.

I'm the same Libby--cleaning places that don't get cleaned as regularly. Not only do I get a clean house I've also lost a pound from the calories I've burned. I'm doing well on my water intake this week too!

Next week it's going to be a little cooler--in the teens instead of mid twenties so I can go for more walks.

My Goals:
1) eat clean yes, yes, eh so-so
2) drink lots of water yes, yes, yes
3) 3 fruits/veggies per day yes, yes, yes
4) walk 10 miles 0, 0, 0

Well we've been kicking around honeymoon ideas and it's looking like the beach. Right now I'm looking at Montego Bay. I guess that means if I'll be walking around shirtless for a week in Jamaica, I need to drop this weight. For the past couple months I've been back over 200. I started this week at 206.2:o, I've pretty much undid all that I've done. On the bright side I know what to do. This morning I was down to 200.4. I need another week or two of big losses that I can stick to a pound a week. I guess I need to get back to work so I can pay for this trip. ;)

I thought I would get a lot more done today but I am exhausted. I feel like I am running out of time. I am going to rest for a while and get back to it.

It's going to be an inside day because it's raining and will continue for several days according to the forecast. I have lots to do indoors any way. I have been eating junk to reward my self for all the hard work. I should stop that. The house is looking better. I need to get a table cloth because all I have is a Christmas one with poinsettias on it. I could use some Thanks Giving decorations for around the house. Maybe we can go shopping today. My pants are so loose they are almost falling off and I almost tripped on the hem yesterday. Talk about working your a$$ off. Ha Ha :p

jjrudd 10-04-2013 02:22 AM

Raining here too. Oh my goodness Libby I have to laugh at how in sync we are! I need to get a tablecloth too!
Have to put my laundry away and then I will work on cleaning the bathrooms. UGH not my favourite job but must be done!

Todays job is vacuuming. There is dog hair all over the house and dead flies.
Yucky. Floor washing and bath rooms tomorrow. Does it ever end?
