house hunting.



house shopping is quite a task. there's so many things that us gals look for in a house. colors, layout, decor potential, etc. i LOVE decorating, so this was especially difficult for me. when i walk into a house i think what walls would look good painted certian colors, i think which walls would need small framed artwork, which walls would need more of a collage of artwork or a shelving unit etc.


then there's the kitchen... every gal must have a decent kitchen! i also find that a kitchen that opens into the living room is a MUST for me. i want to know that when i have company over that they can all be in the living room socializing and i can be putting the finishing touches on a meal and still be social.

so many things to consider. nonetheless we're searching long and hard. we'll see what becomes of any of it.

Tales From the Gym

That's one weird blog title, so let me fill you in... I started the Couch to 5K running program awhile back, remember? Well, I sucked at it. I can't run. It worked me to death and it never got easier. The whole push yourself each time and it will get easier and then you'll increase your running increments until you build up your stamina... yea none of that happened. I did week one like 8 times and I still wanted to die. The thought of increasing my running time made me want to stab myself in my eye. Not to mention that I'm apparently some sort of 29 year old going on 60 because OH.MY.JOINTS! My hips, my knees & my ankles cursed me daily. I loved the way I felt when I was done, but it was the getting there that just about killed me. So one day we didn't run and you know how that goes... one day turned into two months and then it wasn't spoke of again. Hubs and I had to sit down and have a heart to heart one day about getting into shape. We both needed it BAD.
