Well, I should be headed off to a workout class but here I sit being a bum. We went to a co-workers birthday party last night and didn't get to bed until 3:00 am. Makes for one useless Nicole. Everyone tells me I'm still in my 20's so I should be able to keep up...but guess I'm old for my age 'cuz it's been years since I could stay up that late and not pay for it for several days following.
It's such beautiful weather here this weekend. Scott's out running in the sunshine right now (and we have yard work to do when he gets back...boo). He's run a few miles 5 out of the last 7 days. And one of those "off" days he played basketball in a league he's in. He gets home late from the games so he doesn't go running the next morning. He's slimmed down and looking great. But that darn Wii still tells him he's "overweight" but he feels like a champ now that he's consistently out of the "obese" category. :oP
I keep waiting for his motivation to rub off on me but alas it doesn't. I at least did 45 minutes of yoga/strength/aerobics on the Wii Fit yesterday but that's the most I've done in a long time. Can I use the excuse that I can't lose any weight or my wedding dress won't fit...yep definitely going with that! :oD I got my dress from the alterations department on Friday. It's all bustle-ready, pressed and looking beautiful! I can't wait to wear it (a little less than 7 weeks to go)! It's a shame such a beautiful dress will only be worn once.
ScottO still hasn't gotten an XBox 360. We don't play the Wii often enough to warrant getting another gaming system. But...we ordered a new laptop this morning. :o) We planned on getting one of the mini laptops. We usually use our work laptops when we travel (which is definitely frowned upon at work). We absolutely cannot take it out of the country when we go on our honeymoon to Puerto Vallarta (for fear of the IT guy going postal on us), so we decided it was time to buy our own laptop. We wanted a little one that is light and small for travel, to use for internet and playing movies (which is what we would need when travelling). But Scott's been wanting a system that he can do some software programming on. For those who aren't familiar with software programming...it's not something you want done on your good computer. It tends to break the whole darn system at certain points...so...he's not allowed to do it on our home desktop that has our financial software, wedding data, etc. on it. We found a good deal to get a laptop that would serve both purposes on HP (after hours of searching the different brands). It was a little more than we wanted to spend. But I googled for an HP Coupon Code and wouldn't you know I found one for $250 off (on top of the instant rebates we were already using). Brought it down into our budgeted amount and we should have our new laptop in a couple weeks!!
Well...ScottO just walked in the door so I best go get my grubby clothes on to go pull weeds...oh the fun! :oP

Good to get an update! Was wondering where you were. Sounds like you managed a good deal on your puter.
ReplyDeleteYes, keep enough weight off so the dress fits - then you relax. hehehe
Good to hear from you. It must have been a nice day throught the west. Preston and I went out and played some baseball. Yah right, I throw the ball to him, he did manage to hit it a couple times. Not very far. It's been nice the past two days, with promises to get colder by the weekend.
