Slacker

I have been slacking on the blogging this weekend, and I apologize to my 2 die-hard fans. This weekend has been a busy one with all the eating, and hosting, and eating some more. Yeah, there's been exercising as well, but it's been mostly to negate the eating that was done.

Friday we painted our bedroom and went to the gym. Because of the painting, I decided in advance that I did not want to cook so it didn't take much persuading to get my darling husband to agree that Chinese food was a great option. After we ate, we came home and put a second coat of paint on the room and realized it would need a third coat. Since we didn't have enough paint for a third coat, we put the room back together and decided to renovate the closet later this month, and with the paint we'll inevitably need for that job, we'd put another coat on the bedroom. Honestly, as happy as a full closet revamp will make me, I'd be happy to have anything other than a bare light bulb in there like it has now!

Saturday, we had friends over for a potluck and a game of poker. It was a great night with lot of laughs, but again with lots of food. That is why on Sunday, we had a leaner day with some more exercise. Nothing overly exciting has happened, aside from shopping for closet storage solutions and groceries.

Tomorrow, Captain KJ returns to work. Luckily for us, the ship is due for repairs so he's on day work and will be coming home at night. This affords me days full of being attentive to my diet (and him eating aboard the ship), walking outdoors (fingers crossed), and going to the gym at night instead of in the day like we have been. If I feel like going earlier in the day, I'll have to get up at 6 AM and drive him to work like I was doing 4 weeks ago when I started this trend, and I may very well do that. I find I get better results from my gym time if I go first thing in the morning.

Makes sense to me!
