stuck

It's been 10 days since I've worked out. I'm feeling fatter by the minute.... My foot hurts even when I'm just standing on it. I'm still waiting on the results of my x-ray. My doctor sucks...she never calls with test results. I couldn't get into my podiatrist, so I had to resort to my family physician - whom I'll be changing shortly due to her lack of follow-up with me. I just pray that it's not a stress fracture, otherwise it will be 6-8 wks of non-weight bearing for it to heal properly.

I know I need to do something to keep myself in shape, so I ordered the Power 90 DVD's. I figure even if I'm able to run, this program will help me with my diet and resistance training. I still would like to get back down to my wedding weight of 166 at the very least!! I'm currently 13 lbs above it.

We did have another showing of the house this week - just so happened it was on a day that Stephen didn't make the bed, left his clothes on the floor. I left a few dishes in the sink and the floors definitely needed to be swept. I was totally mortified when I knew that there was somebody coming to look at it. Nothing I could have done though - I was at work and they left me a message with 3 hours notice. We are just going to have to really buckle down with making sure the house is totally clean when we leave. We sort of got lax with it since we hadn't had a showing in over a week. We're still working on the fence. Stephen has one more post to go and then we can put up the panels. We were hoping to have most of the panels up this weekend but Home Depot didn't have the fence in stock, so we were stuck ordering it. This project is costing us $1000 to do, so somebody better buy this house once it's done!! Once it's up, I'll have to stain it to match the deck and the rest of the fence.

We've been looking online for houses, haven't really seen anything that we like a whole lot though. We are still trying to explore other options for financing for the build. Some builders will finance the construction - of course I'm sure they wouldn't want us to do any of the work ourselves, so it would end up costing more in the long run. We'll see what happens. First this one needs to sell!!
