I have been busy, but when aren't I right? There just isn't enough time in a day, to do all that you want to do. And even when you are busy, you just have to take some time out for yourself. It is healthy. I recently posted a weigh-in, as recent as today (Jan 19, 2023), depending on when I post this lol. I am happy with those results, although I know they won't always be what I want, all I can do is try my best. It is better than not trying at all. It is raining today, a dreary day. It got colder in my hobby room, and then I realized it was raining. It always gets colder when it rains. I am surprised we haven't got a lot of snow. However, it is normal for us to get a lot of snow from February through March. I am kind of looking forward to it, but at the same time, I am not. I say this because I worry about my feral boys outside. Sammy Continue Reading
Weigh-in #02 – Getting A Good Start!
Here I am with my 2nd weigh-in. I did good, it was not nearly as much as my first, but I knew it wouldn't always be high numbers. Even this weigh-in I feel will not be a normal number. The last time I was doing this, my usual number was 2 lbs a week, and that is with no exercise, apart from the normal doing around the house, doing laundry, going downstairs to the basement, and whatnot. Unfortunately because of my weight, I cannot get on the treadmill yet. I don't want to break it lol. Pretty much the same thing I did last time, I didn't get a treadmill the first time until I was well below 300 lbs, and right now I am still over 300 lbs, so this is how it goes for now. Now for my weigh-in progress photo. I noticed in my last photos the picture was way too close, so this time I decided to back up with the camera a bit. I lost 5.4 Continue Reading
Hello September! Fall is Almost Here!
Nineteen days until the official first day of Fall! Wow, already so hard to believe. Just today I was looking out the kitchen window into the backyard and I saw a few leaves fall. I turned to William and told him, "I just saw a few leaves fall". He says "bite your tongue". Yeah, I don't think he is ready for Fall and to be quite honest, I'm not either. We are really enjoying our summer. During our Labor Day weekend, my honey as I like to refer to William spent some time doing some repairs to the house, not urgent repairs but things we wanted to fix, like our faucet in the bathroom needed replacing. We had recently had the bathroom redone, and by the way, it looks gorgeous. Back to the sink, yeah we used our old faucet and thought it was time for a new one, so a new went up. I like it, it matches the rest of the hardware in the Continue Reading
Happy Star Wars Day!!
May The Fourth Be With You! Are you a Star Wars fan? We are here in this house. Loved the films, don't have favorite, but I thought my inner geek would come out for a little while hehe. Today has been a beautiful day! My hunny had to work. He works a lot I have to say. It's good and not so good. Just means he is not with me, and we are not out and about. I'm hoping we take a mini holiday this summmer *fingers crossed* :) He has mentioned Maine before. I've never been there, so it would be a lot of fun. Get away for a weekend or even a week? Well okay maybe a week is much, but a weekend would do him a world of good, he really does work a lot. He went in today about 10ish, I can tell he didn't want to, because normally he would be out the door by 9 am on a Saturday, and be home by 2ish. But I can really tell he did not want to go in. I Continue Reading
Pinstripe and Pearls
Earlier I was browsing instagram, by the way I changed my username, it is now 'emmiie_' yeah I don't like underscores, but there wasn't much left to select from, and I am not crazy about using numbers, but anyway. I came a cross a post, one of the girls posted about being the class of 2013, and I thought wow, that sure did make me feel ancient LOL. In numbers anyway, not like I look it, or feel it, okay I lie, I feel it a little, stiffness in bones and what not, I need to drink more milk! So later in the day, I was reminiscing and I flashed back to when I worked for JC Penny, I really liked working there, I got to dress up everyday, felt like I was a business woman going to the office LOL @ me! Hah sorry that made me laugh, because it does sound silly. Anyway, I wore skirts and low heels and a nice blouse, did up my hair and make up and Continue Reading
