February

Ok, I am managing to remember to post. Woohoo!
Not much is going on right now. Winter has been weird this year; too warm and not enough snow, but it seems to be trying to be normal again now.
Hubby is off at work for another week and a half and while he's been gone this time I decided to try a new diet. Shockingly, it's actually working! I lost 3.5 pounds last week, and 15 inches over all! This is the first time since the car accident in 2007 that I've been able to loose anything at all and I'm loving it! I know I've lost more inches since I did my weekly weigh in check (do those on Sundays) and I'm just loving this! Not sure how long I'll be able to stick to this once T comes back from the slope, I'm not supposed to do this for more then a few weeks at a time anyway; but I am going to be doing it every time he's gone, that is for sure!
I have been taking a provident living class every other week and this week I managed to get started on the "home work" for it. We were told to put together 5 cook book binders and start collecting our favorite recipes. The binder topics that were "suggested" didn't really work for the way I cook, so I came up with my own and wound up with 10 of them to start with. Some of them are for things we haven't covered yet in the class, but it will make it easier for me to sort my recipes.
And I'm going to be getting ready to get my seeds started for this year's garden here any day now. Soon as I get a chance to sit down and see what all I have and if I still need anything. The greenhouse is up in the front window and nearly ready to go. I need to find out from Hubby if I'll be able to use the window bay in the master bedroom this year or not (it is a construction zone currently) so I know how many tomato and pepper plants to plan for.
The de-construction of our master bed and bath continues. Well, it's on hold while Hubby is away, but he got a lot done last time. The linen closet walls are down, there is a big hole for a window in the wall between the 2 rooms and the sink counter is out. There is, sadly, a big pile of drywall bits on the floor as it was too cold to move those out before he left, but those won't be there long. We are hoping to get the tile and tub out this time and to maybe even get started on replacing the flooring in the bathroom area. We will have to order the tub itself soon and it will take several weeks for that to show up. (We have to special order it because of the color we want it in - gray.) Should all be very nice once we get it all done. Just hope it doesn't drive us all crazy until then. :)
In other news.. B1 and C have a house!! They close on the 17th and we're all very excited about it. It will only be about a 20 minute drive from us, so it's not too bad. :)
And.. B2 took first place on her oratory last weekend in speech and debate!
That brings everything new and exciting more or less up to current :)
