What I'm Reading This Week #30

Happy Final Friday of July everyone!  I will not be sad to see this month in the rear view.  The Mr finished the HOA minion's job by checking on the basement wall crevasse of missing mortar pretty much every waking hour after he "filled" the hole.  I gave him a bamboo skewer to see if it hit the long bottom we saw with the camera.  Nope.   source When he poked it, it drained away.  Every hour, he'd do the same and it kept emptying.  I had him check to make sure it wasn't pouring out the front of the house and thankfully it wasn't.  But if you figure that water has been etching away at the stairstep crack leading from the top of the hole then that goes down the entire length of the wall , so it had a long way to travel.  In the end not only did the Mr use one quart of the filler but had to buy another one and used 1/3 of the bottle before it finally started leveling off!!  If we'd left it to the HOA dude, an eighth of the bottle woul...

Late weigh in

Sorry I'm late with the weigh in this morning (or Sunday morning for those of you subscribing by email).

Down like 1 1/2 lbs.  I really hate that I've gone from my not counting the decimals to counting them.  It used to be if I was 283.4 lbs and went down to 281.8 I'd be all "I lost 2 lbs!" because I'd only count the whole number.  Since I acknowledged last weeks decimal does this mean I have to that from now on?  Because I'd really rather say I went from 274 to 272 and not 274.0 to 272.8.

Sorry, I'm high on chocolate croissant the Mr served me in bed for breakfast.  Yay for romance!

I'll shut up now.  Regardless, going down and I would be THRILLED if I could get out of the 70's by the end of the month.  Fingers crossed!

    Decimals are optional. I count them when I really need a loss but there isn't one. Like this week - down .4 Not a real loss, but I'm going to claim it anyway.

    Happy Saturday.

    I stumbled on your blog from young house love. Amazing! Keep it up!! I've recently lost about 45 after having a baby, and that was hard enough.
