1. Saturday morning did not go as planned. I woke up with a very swollen eye, freaked out, and Garth took me to the doctor. I found out after 27 years of being allergy-free, I know have allergies. Awesome. The swelling is gone, but I have to wear my glasses and take eye drops twice a day.
2. We found our dream house last week while house hunting. It's at the top of our price range and it does not have much of a backyard so we feel a bit anxious about it. We are going to look at some more houses this week and continue to think things over.
3. I turn in my Saturn Ion this week. It was the first car I ever bought and I loved that car so it's a bit sentimental for me. That being said, I am VERY excited for my new car!
4. We decided to lease again because it is just easier with buying a house soon. We decided on the Chevy Malibu and I'm very excited about it!
5. I haven't weighed myself in two months and finally did and found I had gained ten pounds. TEN! What the heck?!
6. I have started doing the Shred again, walking on my lunch breaks, counting calories, and I have lost five pounds and hope to lose another two or three this week.
7. I am more determined than ever to get to my goal weight now. I was five pounds away from it before but this time I will get there. I'll be keeping you posted!
8. My cousin's bridal shower was yesterday and it was so good to see her, as well as my aunts and cousins. Fun times.
9. I still love my job. I work with great people and I enjoy what I do. This Friday we have a retreat on Lake Michigan with the co-workers and their families. It should be a good time!

Hope you have a good week! We're sending prayers your way about your housing situation -- something just right will come!
I rented a Malibu once and loved it. What a great car.
Good luck with the continued house hunt.
Yeah, I just try not to weigh myself. It's depressing.
I just want to know when we'll be able to eat whatever we want and not gain weight. Someone, please tell me. LOL
I feel you, it's been rough trying to maintain, I'm turning over a new leaf and inspiration for weight loss myself! Good luck, with every small and big event you have going on - all so exciting!
that is great about your dream home! I hope it works out for you two!
new car! how exciting :) It was so good to see you too! We need to do a big family reunion/gathering of the cousins so we can all kick back together and catch up!
I'm sorry about your allergies...yuck!!
Hope the house hunting comes to an end soon and you find the perfect house and get to settle in.
You are beautiful no matter what you weigh!
Hope your week is great!
Good luck with the house situation. I'm sure you guys will do what is best for your little family.
and yay for a new car! I am dying for one right now and trying so hard to patient. I am not good at it!
That stinks about the allergies...you'd think by this point in life you'd be outta the woods. guess not!
How exciting about the new car!
I'm sorry to hear about your allergies! How weird that you just started experiencing.
That retreat for works sounds so great! I'm glad you still loved your job :-)
My eye used to do that occasionally! So weird and annoying for an allergic reaction!
oh, home shopping can be so hard! I hope your dream home works out or you find "the one" so soon! When you put your mind to something you accomplish girl, lost 5 lbs already, that's awesome. and so glad you still love your job, what a blessing! :)
You have a lot going on there! Everything will fall into place! Good Luck with house hunting =D
Stupid allergies.
They are haunting me too.
I'm happy about your house and your new car! Yay!
You go girl with the Shred! You can do it!
YAY for a new ride!!! I'm sending you prayers on the house. Girl I feel you on the weight stuff. I pack on the pounds the second I take a break. Not good. But I think you look absolutely fabulous!!! XOXO
Good luck with the house hunting. Hope your dream house -- whether it be this house or another one -- works out for you and Garth.
I feel your frustration about the weight gain, girl! I am right there with you! But good for you for being 5 pounds down already!
I am such a list girl too. very excited for your new car adventure...how fun:)
I hate the scale. For some reason, I just can't hit my goal weight. Your encouraging words may just motivate me to try again too! Good luck!
