I lived in Wyoming when I was younger and would love to move to someplace with mountains but my husband is resistant to change and I have an aging mother so I'll have to stay put for now.
My husband is originally from Oklahoma and isn't as excited to move back to Colorado as I am. But all my family is there and marijuana is legal (that's what got him to accept it with open arms, lmao)! Not sure how we're going to afford a house though. Everything we've seen on our trips back are about double the price of our home here.
Yeah, one of my high school friends recently moved to Denver and I thought I'd check housing prices just to see if it would ever be possible for me to afford it. I'd have to transfer to a job where I got quite a bit of a raise!0 -

Well, Denver metro will be pretty expensive regardless. The city I want to move to (Ft. Collins) is pretty expensive too but DH doesn't like hippies so we can't move there We'll just visit often for the beer. I would then prefer Loveland, but there are several small communities around there so it's completely up in the air at this point. Well....it also depends on where the jobs are, lol. My family is mostly in Greeley but it smells like cow *kitten* there and lots of gang violence and really that's the town I wanted to move away from so wouldn't be real excited to move right back.0 -
I'm in, except for my birthday this month....that's just too much to ask.3

I'm from Kansas City. I may be off track right now, but I'm not planning on throwing out the baby just yet, so to speak.3

Well may I be honest and say I failed this challenge last night0

Day 9 down (almost)!! Husband thought I snuck a beer, which is kind of annoying, lol. He is never great at counting how many beers we have in the fridge so I think he actually thinks I snuck one. Oh-well. I feel great and am ready to keep going! We are going bowling tomorrow night for his birthday, the only night I gave myself the ok to drink for the month.2

Count me in! I used to drink Michelob ultras but have recently switched to Oktoberfest- which is so delicious but is a whopping 176 calories each!! I need to give up the weekend beers.2

I love to run!! But I switch running and strength training every other day (don't have time to do both each day). I just diddle around in the weight room, lol. No real routine. I did SL 5X5 a while ago so that added a few more lifts in to my repertoire!
You?0 -
My birthday is next Wednesday but I found out today that my friend wants to take me out tomorrow to celebrate. We're planning on going to a local brewery for pizza and a seasonal beer and I'm going to try my best to keep it to one beer.0

I'll be back on it after the election and post election drinking woes. My morning workouts have definitely suffered. I'm looking forward to waking up clear headed tomorrow.
