OOTD – Week of January 1, 2018

Here we are at the beginning of another year!  They seem to be going by faster the older I get.  Time sure has sped up the last few years.  It is hard to believe that I have a teenager and almost a teenager, and that hubs and I will be celebrating 20 years wed this year.  How’d that happen??

Well, hoping for a good year this year.  We already have some issues with surgeries for my Grandma and my girl, but hopefully the healing will be fast.

As for me, my vertigo is back, though it isn’t too severe.  It does give me a bit of a spin and nausea when I lay down for the first minute.  Some days are better than others.  I was hoping to get back into exercising since I am almost to 158lbs now.  I would really like to fit back into my jeans and not have to squeeze into my clothes.  I am going to try to start with the elliptical.

Onto fun stuff!

This week I was trying to go through the blues in my closet.  I was mostly successful, though a few days I didn’t do it.

I got nothing for this day.  I did wear a pair of fleece pants I made a few years ago, but I was basically do laundry, cleaning and organizing most of the day to prep for going back to work.  I did take a shower that day, so that is good at least, right?? 😉

Back to work and going outside in the frigid weather.  Another lovely day in the north with -13 in the car on the ride to the office.  The heat had barely kicked in by the time I got there.   This was pretty comfy.

I had to go into work today, so yay me!  If I look tired, I am.  It has been a long week.  I went to bed last night exhausted and my mind wouldn’t stop going, so I still didn’t get a lot of sleep.  On the weekends my office building doesn’t really heat it very high, so I knew it would be chilly.  It was in the low 60’s in my office, but I do have a non-fire code heater!
