4th of July and life as of lately

Happy 4th of July to my American readers!! Let us remember the real meaning of the holiday; independence and the birth of America! July 4th, 1776 we declared independence from Great Britain.

That being said, how are you celebrating this year? The husband and I are hitting up the Shelby county fair for some good food this afternoon. Later for dinner we will dine on so e nice steak and watch this fireworks display. I am really excited!

This last month or so has been hectic; we had a baby shower to go to and a bunch of moving things to take care of, but as of last weekend we are out of the apartment and strictly homeowners! Now we can focus on all the renovating/home projects we have been planning! I guess that also means we should also finish painting....

I have been making more of an effort to eat right and get some walking in. I have been wrestling with whether or not to get a gym membership. Part of methinks it would be a good idea, but the rest of me thinks it would be better to just get my own treadmill for home. I am currently sitting at 202.3, after having lost 3 pounds this week. Honestly for most days we have eaten the same thing so it's been really easy to keep on track. I am considering today a splurge day because we only go to the fair once a year, if that.

Additionally, I have been involved in increasingly more product reviews. I will have my next review up soon!

Stay tuned for more posts this next week!
