First dinner the honeyman ever made me, Gabby in her laundry basket, L, L, L, Gabby girl again, and an awesome book.

 

Hi guysss!!!!

Sarah update: Well obviously, tons. Firstly, I’ve been kind of fighting a cold since Monday. I felt like CRAP, but then felt okay until Thursday or Friday when I felt all miserable again. So, that sucked, but I guess it could have been worse (and at the moment, I’m feeling kinda better). Amanda and L came into town on Monday night, which was GREAT! L is soooo cute and funny, lol. He walks all over the place, and dances every time he hears music, and laughs at strangers. We went shopping all day Tuesday, which was a lot of fun and I got a lot of great deals. ANNNNNDDDD I talked Amanda into getting L a Yoda costume for Halloween, and she’s going to be Princess Leia. L IS GOING TO LOOK SO CUTE AS A LITTLE TINY YODA. I can’t wait to see it. Best mother / son costumes ever. Gabby had to scratch L at least once, cause he was crowding her and trying to mess with her in her laundry basket, and Gabby just was not having it. I kind of like that Gabby doesn’t really like babies/toddlers. She runs away from L most of the time he’s here.

So, they left Wednesday, and I ran a lot of errands, and worked a lot, and blah. Felt like crap a lot, like this cold never fully revealed it’s ugly head but it made me tired and sniffley and blah. It’s also been in the 40′s a lot this week, which sucks. I need to get my winter clothes out this week. How sad.

On the weight loss front, for some insane reason my weight kept dropping everyday this week and as of this morning I’m down a total of 16 lbs. I completely passed the 15-lb mark, like overnight. I’m assuming that it’s because so much energy was spent fighting this cold, cause my workouts weren’t amazing or anything, and I ate just as much as I usually do. I was pretty convinced at first that the scale was broken, but it’s been consistent so… yeah. Yay! Also, in another 5 lbs or so it might be time for me to go buy some smaller jeans, and that’s really my hope is to just go down to the 10 to 12 area, so maybe soon. See ya, size 14′s!

Date night last week the honeyman made me dinner for the first time ever. (Sure, he can make me a chicken burger or pizza or other premade stuff, but this is the first time he made me dinner from like a recipe.) It was awesome and delicious and wonderful and I love him. Tonight we went out to eat, ran to the mall before it closed, went grocery shopping, and now we’re about to settle down to watch Once Upon a Time AND The Walking Dead.

 

Just for funsies.

 

Bookish update: Well, the Dewey’s readathon was this weekend! And I didn’t get to take any time off of work, but I still managed to read 559 pages (or roughly 2 1/2 books), so woo-hoo! I finished the second book in the Nightside series by Simon R Green, and I’m not reviewing all these sequels, but let me tell you it was awesome. I actually stopped at the bookstore tonight to buy the next two in the series, but they were out. Soooo, that might be a mission for tomorrow. I also read and finished How to Be a Woman by Caitlin Moran, which had some good parts but I also had some issues with. If nothing else though, it lead to a lot of fun discussions about feminism with the honeyman today, so that’s always good. I’m kind of looking forward to reviewing it.

I’m looking forward to reviews, and readalong posts, and just general relaxing this week. I have the next 4 days off and just want to chill at home a lot, because I’m working a lot the following week.

Anyways that’s my update, it’s time for tv! Hope everyone has an awesome week!

  1. Uh, coming down with a cold without actually getting ill feels the worst. I’m glad you’re feeling better! L looks adorable! I hope you get to rest and relax this week and get your strength back. Have a great week!

  2. Stupid cold, nasty little bugger those things… Hope you feel better soon!
    L is all kinds of adorable and isn’t it cute when they’re not yet shy around strangers? :) My 3-year-old cousin is the same, it’s wonderful :)
    And yeah, little kids and pets don’t really go so well together ;)
    Go you on the weight loss and props to the honeyman for making you a fabulous dinner! Enjoy your days off!

    • Thanks Daisy! Yeah L is really, really funny. He’s just really loud and laughs at EVERYTHING. It makes all the strangers smile too, even if he’s laughing at them, lol. I really hope they move back to my area soon, he’s such a cutie pie.

  3. Woohoo on your weight loss goals and new jeans! Yay for the honeyman cooking you dinner!!
    I’m sorry you’re still sick. My throat has felt a bit scratchy so I hope that I’m not getting sick. But I hope that you feel tons better soon!! And that your quest for the books in the series you like is successful.

    • Thanks Jenn :) I think I’m finally pretty much over my cold… although I have lots of windows open right now even though it’s chilly b/c I wanted to give the apartment a nice air-out, so that may change.

      I hope you’re not getting sick!

  4. I hate fighting a cold! Glad to hear you’re getting better now! And yay for dinner with your guy! Mine doesn’t cook too often, but he does do ALL of the barbecuing. :)

    I’m jealous of the readathon! I know when I participated last October, it took me a while to get back in the swing of things after staying up for 24 hours. I think that’s why I steered clear this year. But it looked like fun!

    Have a good week!

  5. I love the Halloween costume ideas! That is so adorable. Post pics if you can!

    Congrats again on the weight loss. That’s great work! I hope your cold goes away soon. :(

Don't be shy! Comments are a good thing.
