The past 2-3 weeks have been super crazy. Highlights/not-so-high-lights
-We decided to refinance our house. We've been thinking about it and planning for it for a while. I didn't think it would be such madness. We needed an appraisal. So we decided to put in much needed new carpet in the bedrooms. And we're cheap so we opted to move ALL the furniture out ourselves. The furniture came out. The carpet went in. And we had about 18 hours between the carpet being done and the appraisal so that was a fun and not at all stressful day. After all the stress, the appraisal was AWFUL! Like 30k under our goal. I wanted to cry.
-The Seahawks won the Super Bowl! Being a Seattle fan, I have never in my life celebrated a professional sports championship. It was awesome. It's still awesome. Go Hawks.
- Luc turned 6. I can't decide if he seems older than that or younger than that. I love his energy. And at times his energy sucks the life right out of me. He is so full of questions and needs and wants. But he's also super sweet and loving. He wants every minute to be filled with fun and entertainment. He's started playing soccer and he's awesome. Watching and practicing with his sisters has helped a lot. He scored 5 of 6 goals in the first game.
- We are now preparing for a second appraisal. I'm not going to stress nearly as much this time. I can't. My family doesn't need to endure that again. Hopefully the duct work being done and therefore adding 250 sq ft (the add on doesn't count without the duct work) will help with the outcome.
-We get to go to Disneyland in 2 weeks. I am so excited. Maybe more than the kids. I can't wait. I need a vacation. Even if it is a lot of work. It will be nice to just get away for a bit.
And my grand Highlight of the month... I hit my goal weight/size!!! Just this morning. Its been more than 10 years since I was down this low. Its a big day for me.
