We are already half way through the year :S its CRAZY :S the time keeps on just flying bye, I swear :S i thought I had only recently said it was Easter.
Its funny i do this every month not for anyones benefit but my own :) This helps me work on my memory by reflecting on my month and gives me something to look back on :) this will probably help me later on when I get to writing a book. i am SO in the preliminary stages on that but its coming. i think I have a GREAT story & want to share it :)
Started off the month by going to my monthly group. Its funny its a group that I LOVE to go too, & it SO tickles me, especially because I use to lead groups & now I am a participant in a group. Things like that still keep me in AWWW....its funny how life works out. Its funny cause I think about my life these days & contemplate volunteering or something but I am SO against working for free & am still working on my severe speech impediment :S I HATE it :S but it is what it is. So overall I just find healthy ways to occupy my time. I have a daily routine where I plan my day and work my plan. Having a routine is SO beneficial too me. I exercise, garden, go for walks, clean up cook dinner & stuff. I think I have the cleanest house ever that is until I went to our neighbors house to meet their new baby Isabella Hope, I LOVE her middle name :) their house was emaculit & Isabella is only 2 months old. The mom isn't working right now so I was like ok, but STILL LOL. I was like what can I do differently to my house. SO feel like I needed to pick up my game, and here i thought my game was solid.
Then I had a baby fix. So we went to the Davis residence to watch game #2 of the playoff finals. We got to spend time with our god son and had a GREAT time. Ive been on this baby kick lately. No pictures of our gathering though :S
I am still on my workout grind and have been going for walks doing this 3 minute arm workout and this ab workout I found on Pinterest :) I LOVE my IPAD :) Im my own motivation and I am dedicated to myself. Still just ultimately trying to stay active & hit my goal in the process. I like having healthy time killers :) My elliptical broke this month :S I was SO heart broken so I had the hubby do a little magic & try to fix it but I still need to look into a replacement machine. I LOVE my home gym :)
Then it was our anniversary :) Still the greatest day of my life :) I SO remember the day like it was yesterday. So this year we did the exact same thing we did last year :) We hit up Palm Springs again and did it the right way :) We were able to watch the game and sit pool side all weekend. We were in heaven :) Brandon SO needed it :) I say we did it right this tine cause last time we didn't know what all the timeshare had to offer, but since we knew we had a legit game plan. We were supposed to go to the Flemings they have out there but decided not too and went to a spot :) We still had a GREAT time with no regrets :) We attended a owners meeting to keep learning about our time share and get our gift :) $100 american express card :) Prepaid vacation and all the meals were paid for :)
Then that Monday we went to watch game 4 at BWW with some friends :) The warriors will come back I have hope :)
Well we didn't come back and I was SO disappointed. My pastor had it SO right :) he said they got cocky :S Same thing happened to OKC, they got cocky and lost 3 games in a row. Same thing happened to the warriors :S It SUCKS :S they had such a GREAt session and then Curry didn't show up in the finals :S
Happy fathers day to all the dads out there :) we had my parents over in this HOT ass weather and Brandon BBQd of course. #nopictures:S No matter if it is day or night hot or cold he LOVES to BBQ. This summer has been HOT :S I feel like every year it gets hotter & hotter, sooner & sooner :S and I have been melting :S we don't have an AC unit in the house :S I don't know how we use to survive. Must be the small AC we have in the room :S to bad it took a dump and isn't working anymore in this heat :S So I am cold when it is cold and hot when it is hot :S I feel like there is no in between :S #80degreetemperature:) So we decided the air is defiantly coming this year :) not soon enough though. We are just trying to survive this heat wave :S So I go out and about to stores, I LOVE to shop :) I just go looking & thankfully it hasn't hurt my wallet to bad just a little purchases here & there :)
Shopping adventures :) betting the HEAT :)
SALAD
My diet these days has consisted of A LOT of fruit & veggies :) I LOVE salad and found some GREAT recipes that I wanted to try out :) This is a yummy chicken salad I found on my the allreciepes app :) I LOVE that app :) thanks for the recommendation Monica Hernandez :) Im up to 8 glasses of water a day minimally :) I have eliminated soda completely from my diet & working on eliminating pink lemonade and turning to water. I think I'm doing a decent job but still ask for lemonade every now & then, I'm not to bad though #turningtolemoncucumberwater:)
I am beyond proud of myself I hit my goal of 135 :) and continue to stay active active because I throughly enjoy it :) it is a healthy time killer and healthy coping skill :) I LOVE focusing on myself & it is paying off :) My elliptical broke this month & I still haven't replaced it :S SO my workouts this month have consisted of A LOT of walking :) #minimumof2milesaday:) I have the workout support group that I created that keeps me motivated :) #itsfree#hitmeupifyouwanttojoin:) have this arm and ab workout that I started this month :) staying active is paying off :)
I swear it seems like I am able to hit my goal and once I do I let loose and gain a few pounds back :S I think its all the mini vacays we do :) I LOVE our mini vacays :) We hit up Laughlin mid June :) We were able to survive the 115+ degree weather by staying in the water :) the red jet ski took a dump :S #ROCKS:S but we still had a GREAT time :) I LOVE our mini vacays especially when I look back on what I remember and see how far Ive come it makes me SO proud to know we can SO do this on our own :) Beyond thankful to god for all he has given to us and continues to give us :) he is GREAT #hallelujah
it was a perfect beach :) we made new friends :) we never had a bad experience on the water :)
