Can I just TELL you how gorgeous it is outside? After we’ve had overcast skies or outright rain for the past week, today is just PERFECT. Cool, breezy, tons o’ sun.
And here I am, in a cube.
BUT! There are many upshots!
Today, Bryan and I are visiting OUR NEW HOUSE. Our realtor likes to do some sort of final walk-thru (schmalk-thru) before closing. I think it makes more sense to do that AFTER the family’s vacated the premises, but whatevs. Any excuse to get back into OUR NEW HOUSE and try and remember what it looks like. Because, seriously? There were two or three houses we considered buying, and we visited those as many as four times. I can STILL walk through them in my mind. But this house? The one we’re actually buying? Yeah, no clue. I ran through it during their open house and called Bryan to say, “Yeah, you should look at this one when you get a chance.”
(Here’s where I’ll admit that I don’t even remember how to get to the house.)
SO! All of that will happen today. I might even write down directions.
ALSO! This morning, I made a super secret stop which is probably not even really a big ole secret, but I am SO PLEASED WITH MYSELF. See, I suck at presents. Truly. I am not a gifted giver. (HA.) So when an occasion arises that requires a gift, and someone actually specifies the gift they want, MANOHMAN, am I there. Even if it means lining up when the store opens and fending off tons of soccer moms and enduring this paper-cut war-wound:
(I know. Cry me a river. BUT IT HURT LIKE A BIOTCH.)
Dude, I will endure all of that and more for the ones I love. Like my husband. Who will be FIT now. (TEEHEEHEEE, I SO SCORED.)
Oh! And tonight is Group Centergy at the gym, which I LURVE. Kari and Jenni and I will be contorting ourselves in odd poses and pretending not to fart as we do so. Then we will “meditate” (i.e. SLEEP) for ten minutes as we find our center.
So, I’ve gained two pounds this week. Which sucks because I’m doing everything right, which prompts me to think that I’m losing fat but gaining muscle. Seriously. I know that sounds like a cop-out, like when the dryer shrinks my clothes, but seriously, I feel more toned. Ask Bryan. He’s felt the tonedness.
Finally, in response to everyone’s question “How’s Willie doing?”, I leave you with the photographic evidence that Willie is out to take over the world:
