Hi, Julie! Are we starting today? If so . . .

How do I feel about my day? Today was so nice. I got to enjoy my time with my daughter this morning and play and snuggle! I went to my spa pedicure and manicure with my gift card I got from my husband and daughter for mother's day. It was so nice and I'm feeling pampered/prettier. I'm just looking forward to continuing to lose weight! I got on the scale today and I'm nearly 240, can't wait to get into the 230s and keep going. I just have to KEEP GOING to get to my goal!!

How do I feel about my day? I did a TON of laundry today. I want there to be next to NO laundry when we leave to go to Cape Cod. I have some more to do around the house to clean up. And next week the hubby and I are gonna PURGE the house to get rid of stuff. He also has some incentive to clean out the garage and I will be MORE than happy to help him b/c it hasn't been clean for years. My goal is to clean out the porch. I love the fall and like to sit out their to read and drink tea. I'm thinking it would also be a good exercise room, it's so cool in the fall and winter, it'd be comfortable! I'm pumped for our championship game tomorrow for softball can't wait!0 -

How do I feel about my day? Awesome day! My softball team won the championship!! It was a great! I'm gonna miss my team though, it's my Monday night routine. We're just a bunch of misfits that happened to play really well together. We don't have any "power hitters" or anyone that is spectacular, we just work well together as a TEAM. It'll be fun to play with them again next year. Went out to the bar we play for after the game and the bar bought us pizzas and one of the guys bought a round of beer. Haven't done that for a long time (momma duties keep me home most of the time). Great day!! But not that softball is over I'm going to have to get on the stationary bike as a replacement and buckle down and do the challenges more diligently.
Thanks for posting everyone!! KEEP IT UP!!0 -

How do I feel about my day? Went into Falmouth today and had a great lunch at a British pub by the ocean. Walked up and down the beach, it was the first time the baby saw the ocean!!! The weather had been crappier earlier so we were not prepared but I got her to the water and she wanted to go right in!! No fear just like her mama!! She really kept me busy today. I got to see my uncle who is in hospice, he was having a good day today so he was happy to see all of us. Going to the beach tomorrow prepared and can't wait to get the baby in the water! And me in the water!!!0
