A few days later

Well, we are all moved in. If cleaning for several hours didn't earn me APs, it at least earned me good-wife points. I swear, if I knew cleaning the floor of a man-bathroom was going to be that gross, I'd made him do it.

Having my parents here this weekend was so great. Just one thing - food choices. We went to Famous Dave's on Sat., and I intended to have a salad. But by the time we got there I was so hungry I was like "bring it on". So, salmon-fries-corn bread muffin-and-beans later, I was stuffed. Oh, and that's not counting the 2 22-oz. Fat Tires I had (and deserved if I say so myself). So I am allowing myself no flexies this week, which hasn't been a problem too bad - yesterday I hit 29 total and I wont be much higher today. Food is not yummy when I'm coughing all the time (which means STILL no gym but I am going to ZUMBA tomoro nite whether my lungs like it or not). Oh, and I think that I have finally convinved the fam that FD's is a no-go when I'm with: the time spent in the bathroom that nite should be evidence enough.

We are loving being in our new place, but would be enjoying life in general alot more if we weren't coughing so much. Makes sleep nearly impossible. Makes work dreadful. People look at me like I have Ebola, so class is minimal fun as well. The part I hate most about being sick - and I never would have thought I'd be the one saying this - is that the gym is out of the question. There's nothing cool about coughing all over the elliptical.

One glitch in the condo - fire alarms. On Sat. nite, they went off with no provocation for about 20-30 mins. The next day they went off a few times late that nite and then yesterday as well. The only one today, that I know of, was about 7 a.m. The electrician was over this afternoon so hopefully it's all fixed. We are sposed to be getting a gate put in for the parking lot, and an intercom too. I feel jipped bc we bought it expecting those things and they aren't in but I won't throw too much of a fit - yet. For now, visitors get to knock on the window for us to let them in. How convenient :)

We get internet access Th., and WI is Fri. Wish me luck.
