Not Much To Say Today!

I have been sitting here on the couch watching TV thinking about what I am going to post about today. I think I am suffering from the post giveaway blues! I got so many comments during the giveaway and I'm afraid that will taper off now. I don't really have much to say today. I am listening to this horrific story on the Today's Show about a child that got a pencil lodged in his neck through his throat while playing on the playground! Gross me out! Why do they have to report this stuff on the news!? By the way, Al Roker has been saying hi to AFN listeners like every day. So as it turns out, I don't think he is reading my blog! :( He also changed the words to his Williad Scott song to "Everybody loves OUR Willy" instead of "Everybody loves MY Willy". I'd say this was for the best!

This morning Deaner let me know that the first of our financial consultants told us they would not be able to give us a bid on a potential loan. At first I was really upset about it but then our architect told us that they have several other consultants working on it too and that they think they are close to reaching something with one of them. I am just so sick of waiting on this! I am going to be very unhappy if I have to start going to housing again every morning looking for a place to rent. This has just got to work out because NO place will be as nice as this one nor would we accumulate any equity if we are forced to rent. I know that things work out for the best but I am just ready to get this show on the road! Everyday that we don't hear anything is another day that we are losing on the actual renovation. Sigh.

I've been doing really good in the gym the past two weeks. I can definitely tell a difference. Well, I don't think I have gained any more weight, and I'll take that. Of course when you work out hard for 65 minutes, come home, shower, and eat a cheese pizza for dinner, it probably cancels everything out! I have been spinning for roughly 65 minutes a night but I'm pretty sure my butt is not going to allow this tonight. I'm thinking that if I can just get through one more workout my butt will be used to it. At home I always used a gel seat and was fine but I'm having to tough it out here!

Steph and Jon get home on Friday!! Yea!!! Only problem? Deaner and I leave on Tuesday to go to Lakenheath, England! Boooo!! I'm probably going to be really bored there but I feel grateful that I get to at least go with him instead of having to stay here alone! Lakenheath supposedly has a really big air base and I am hoping that I can figure out how to take a bus or train into London for the day while Deaner has to work. We fly home from England on Friday and leave that same night for Rome! I am REALLY excited about that. Too bad my travel book STILL hasn't arrived! I'm starting to think that I am not going to get it in time!

Anyways, I'm off to read what could potentially be my newest guilty pleasure. Steph has loaned me the first two books in the Sookie Stackhouse series which is based on the HBO show True Blood. Not typically what I would like but I really enjoyed Twilight when I didn't think that I would. I am in desperate need of some new books to read! Please feel free to leave me some suggestions!! Hope y'all have a great day!

I didn't have anything to say today either, hence why I did a picture blog. :)

I've been want to read those books, too, so let us know what you think of them :-) All of your traveling sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun!

Jon and Steph said...

I have nothing to blog about either! You're not alone! At least your doing great at the gym! That is more than I can say for myself.

Get to reading..... I think you are going to love the books!

I can't wait to see you this weekend!!!

Gleatie - No lie, the name is "The Today Show," not "Today's Show." again, that is, unless you are watching "Today's Special."

Have you noticed Lenny on the today show? He rocks!

Crazy Shenanigans-JMO said...

Yeah, I'm having blog block today as well.

Sometimes you just get writers block - happens to me all the time!

Jane said...

:) You'll still get lots of comments. I think your butt will eventually get used to the uncomfortable seat ... mine did!

Hope the financing works out!
