Welcome back friends and family! I hope you all had a wonderful long weekend. Mine was Ok...can't complain. Lots of activity; visits with friends, family, workouts etc.
I really don't know where to start with today's blog. The first thing that comes to my mind is Chorizo....my poor little nugget. We discovered that he doesn't like fireworks....at least to be right beside them as they are going off. Sunday evening had dinner at my sister's. My cousin and his wife joined us along with my bro-in law's brother. We had an awesome time as always. Once it got dark, my brothers-in-law had their own fireworks that they wanted lit up. By this time, Chori already was slightly panicked by the commotion off the surrounding fireworks. So, once the guys were getting down with theirs....Chori and I had to stay in the house....and he was up on my shoulder shivering. How sad is that?!!! After about 1/2 hour of this...I decided to take him home...and snuggle with him in bed. Not a bad deal for either of us. LOL!!!
I am still going strong with my workouts....YAY! I can totally see progress. I am going to get weighed this afternoon....YUCK!!! But....although the scale and I are not friends....I am not totally focused on the number especially when I can physically see the changes. LOVE IT!!! Oh on that note; I know I never told you why I am really doing this....other than I have to prepare for a special occasion. Well...now that it has come out into the open....my two dearest friends are getting married....in less than 2 months!! LOL EKKKKK!!!! I have to get dress worthy by July 16th people. YUP....I refuse to look anything but FABULOUS in the gorgeous violet dress that I bought. Don't worry....it was to spec. I followed the same colour scheme as the maid of honour....and I did make sure to see the bride's dress....just so I wouldn't f*** up on my choice. Needs to be cohesiveness.....you know? LOL
I would say the most pivotal of events to happen this week was home hunting. I am moving out!!!! So I went to 3 viewings this weekend.....of which only one got a 7.5/10 grade. I was hoping to see another apartment down the way from that one....but it is not vacant and I have to wait for a suitable time for the current tenant to view it. POOH! However, with all that said and done....there have been some major discussions about taking the next big step in my life....huge in fact; possibly purchasing a home. Why not just bite the bullet now. I don't think you can ever be TOTALLY ready to take on such a serious debt or obligation. Further more, with rent being as high as it is...in the hood that I want to live in....I might as well be paying a mortgage. We (my mom and I) did some number crunching....its looking plausible. There are some more discussions to be had with a third and fourth party....but at least this is an option on the table....that I can get SUPER excited about! Fingers crossed people!!!
Just one more thing I want to put out there...into the universe....my dad is coming home this Thursday! We are in the midst of selling his condo. Please angels.....let this be my first sale!!!! I know you know how much it would mean to me!!!! Sending tons of love to you!!!!
That's it folks! Peace out! xo P
