Our house!

Because I have zero patience to post all the pictures of our house on my blog, here's a link to the bio I made for the Nest.

Enjoy!!

Oh paint, how you frustrate me!

So, Keith and I are closing on our house next week (wahoooo!!!) which means we'll be painting next weekend.

Ugh. Have I mentioned how much I despise picking out paint. I knew I wanted a light "warm" sage green color for the kitchen since it'll go nicely with the cabinets and the counters. What I didn't know is that there are 37 different types of "light sage green". Arrrgh. And don't even get me started on trying to pick colors for the dining room and living room.

After some much appreciated advice from some fellow Knotties/Nesties, I'm off to Lowe's and Menard's to pick up some paint samples and paint on posterboards. Then it's off to the house to hold the painted posterboards up in the different rooms and decide which ones to use.

Here's hoping!!

C25K workouts -- FAIL.

Yep, I've done one C25k workout in two weeks. Fail.

Ugh. I've got to get over whatever funk I'm in. I took Harley for loooong walk yesterday and it felt great. We did just under 2 miles and my body feels it today. Our road is a lot more hilly than I remember.
I haven't signed up for it yet, but I'm aiming to run in the Cheetah Chase 5k at our local zoo in late July.

I've got to do this...my BHM girls are counting on me! But I'm losing motivation in a serious way...it just sucks because this lack of motivation and feeling of disappointment in myself is so familiar...and I'm so tired of it.
