Home improvement goals

Soooooo I am a big procrastinator on this bathroom ordeal.

So the tile was failing and water was in the walls (coming in through the ceiling down stairs).

This was August.

I think I'm terrified to Tile without the help of my dad (who lives in PA).

But several people have told me i can mess it up and have to do it over 3 times for the cost to pay someone.

so here is the status update:

First row of felt on, sealant around tub.

GOALS!

1. Clean tub edge
2. Last row of Felt up
3. Buy Backer Board
4. Maybe start mounting the backer board?

I thought maybe if i started posting about it, i would feel like i actually had to follow through on it.

Heres to hoping that works and i get my ass in gear.

I would love to be tiling by next weekend or thanksgiving week.

We don't have plans for thanksgiving this year as we have been traveling for waaaay to much this fall.

In other home improvement news:

• we did buy a shelf to hide our kitty litter
• got a free credenza
• bought paint primer on sale and Sherwin Williams
• finished unpacking boxes and now have two rooms towering with boxes.
• cleaned out the unfinished space under the stairs, plans: buy some cheap paneling/sheets of wood/drywall and close it in, in order to use it as a secondary closet of some kind.

Thats all i got. think my plate is pretty full with the bathroom i can't committ to finish! Fingers crossed!

5 am slump

I missed 5amclub again.

Hate myself for snoozing it and sleeping.

I'm just so tired.
So i packed my running gear and took it to work. And Body Pump has a class at 430 and 535.
i loathe going alone though.

Then I got this message after I got to work this morning, from T-Dubs.

I died laughing in my office.

I found it hilarious!

I ran less than 2 miles yesterday, sucking.

Truth Gun to my head: I'm in a rut I have been since April.

Just being real, here

So I packed clothes today to run from work, been debating trying it out on lunch.

It's 18 degrees right now.

Yeaaaaaa.....

Oh well. I needed to hit the gym this morning for another BodyPump class. An it didn't happen so here is to Friday making that happen.

My blog Friend Alicia asked for a pic, so here it is!

My hair didn't turn out great this morning. 

I'll try to take a shameless selfie on a good hair day!

Chop chop

this happened...

Here are my before and afters:

Before

After!

In case you are wondering, i love it.
It was time.
I also wish it was straight naturally (grass is always greener, amiright!?)
Check out that grey on the part! DAMN! HEY LADY NEED SOME HELP CROSSING THE STREET?
Gosh.

Well my sister might have been equally as excited as my hair dresser. Seriously, they had way too much fun.
My sister also texted me at 7:30 am on Saturday (not cool. ever.)
She also wanted to know what it looked like curly, thats why she got this.
i am a super light sleeper so my ass was up then.

i laughed a lot. when i got her photo back.

Thats me top right with dime eyes and coke bottle glasses.

Whatcha think? (be nice)

Need to see it curly?

To cut my hair or not to cut my hair

To cut

Or not to cut?

 

Shamless selfie in the car yesterday.

Its long and goregoues, and a serious pain in the butt to maintain.

Cons:

• takes forever to do
• never dries fully
• no longer stays up in ponytail/bun/anything at the gym
• my gray/white is coming in so vicously i have to get it done every 4 weeks ($100)
• im poor enough

Pros:

• damn, its pretty looking.
• its really pretty.
• i love tri color, and i hate box coloring ($4)
• but it will make me $96 richer every month
• its so pretty.
• T-Dubs tells me how pretty it is.

please dont take this as im being big headed, i dont think i have any pretty features. At all. That being said, im really only happy with the hair for about two weeks becuase then the gray/white comes in with force. Hence the car photo so you cant see it on my part.

Here are some thoughts i have had:
