Sunday Post - 08/21/22

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~this meme was inspired in part by ~ In My Mailbox~ It's a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.

I've had a good week. I don't remember too much about Monday. Tuesday is Husband's off day so he went for a walk with us. I took the boys swimming while Husband ran to the store. I think he ended up going to Lowes/Home Depot every day this week. Wednesday it rained almost all day so I wasn't able to go for a walk. Baby Boy and I just hung out and played. I was able to go through some boxes of hand-me-down clothes from Little Boy to see what will be fitting Baby Boy next. I reorganized some of that and go some stuff in boxes to try to sell at consignment in the fall. Thursday, Baby Boy had his 18 month check up (one month late, he's 19 months old today). All that went well. We went to hang out with my mom until I needed to leave to get him home from nap and get Little Girl from school. Friday was nice because I did get to walk even though it looked like it was going to rain at any moment all day long. It didn't end up raining at all. The pantry shelves arrived this week so hopefully we will get those installed ASAP, and I can finally start using my pantry. I'm so excited. Husband and I have been doing keto again since right after my birthday. I'm down 9 pounds and so excited about it. I've got to get this baby weight off. Saturday was mostly good for me. Husband got one of Little Boy's closet doors hung and I started the first coat on the other door. We walked. We swam. I painted. I cleaned Little Girl's room with minimal protesting from her on things I was throwing out. My, oh my! She is a hoarder at heart. She's like a squirrel storing away all kinds of trash.
