Me Time Again!

Wedding done.  Check.
Inventory over.  Check.
Time to get back to ME time.  Check.

Today, I went to the gym on my lunch break, and didn't just "play around" with some cardio.  Some serious arm workouts today - and now?  Noodle Arms has set in!  I was OK with my food intake, could have been better an keeping the calorie count lower, but I stayed mostly within my guidelines, considering where I'm at, and how active I am.

11k+ steps today, which earned me a new fitbit badge:

• You've earned the New Zealand badge
• You've walked 990 lifetime miles—the entire length of New Zealand.

990 miles - that's a lot of mileage since mid September 2015.  even if we call it 9 months, that's 100 miles a month.  OK.  I'll take that.   :D

I'm committing myself to making sure I'm doing more things for me again, getting in my workouts and my walks.  I'm also focusing on my home and home improvements.  Latest project:  fixing up my son's room now that he's moved out.  My goal is to make it a guest bedroom.  So far, it's been painted a soft blue-grey called "Quiet Rain".  The closet was emptied and painted as well - Sunlit White.  All of my son's things that he left behind are in boxes, ready to be labeled and restacked neatly in one half of the closet.

I have hung two things on the walls so far:  one is a rustic board in an off bluish - green that has 3 hooks attached to it.  It's right behind the door, handy for guests to hang jackets, purse, etc.  The other thing is something I found at Target.com but wasn't available for ordering.  I had to track down a store that had it; I drove over and sadly, they didn't have it.  But the nice guy who checked me out happily put the numbers in his little computer-y thing and told me the Chandler South store had one.  After work on Monday, I zoomed over and picked it up.


Home Decor can be fun -- when I get to make all the choices, of course!  haha
