Hibernation

So for the past...lets say 4 months I have been in hibernation. Well my version of hibernation. It has been cold here in Ohio and I did not deal with it this winter. I mainly stayed inside and did much of nothing....oh except I ate. This weekend has been absolutely amazing. 80+ degree weather. It was time for me to wake up. This is what I found when I woke up....yucky, sick winter hibernation weight. Egh. I tried on my summer clothes...the ones that fit last year and (snif, snif) they don't any more. Well wait...does it count if they totally stay on because they are skin tight but top button wasn't done up and I still had a muffin top?

Today Rocky and I were talking about hibernation and he pointed out that when most animals go into hibernation they don't eat....and infact they usually wake up skinnier. Thanks Rocky.....

So yeah, I got it wrong....pretty obvious when I put the super skinny, muffin top pants on.

Anyone else run into this problem?
Anyone else want to join me on the quest to loose the hibernation weight?

Guts

So we have quickly moved onto another homeowner project. Well actually we aren't the ones doing the work (thankfully). Our house is being re-plumbed and we are so happy about it...we think.

Please see below

Some of the various ceiling holes in the house. I think we are up to about 12 random holes in the ceiling and walls. We have been assured that these will be fixed and we won't be able to tell. I really hope so.


The plumbing used in our house was involved in a law suit and our last plumber told us about it. I decided to file a claim, hoping to get my $500 dollars back. Well turns out that we are getting a lot more than that. The company decided to re-plumb our house, and give us our $500 buckaroos back.

So we are back in construction mode at the house....again. We only have water flowing to one bathroom at this time. We have seen more of the inside -GUTS- part of our house then we had ever anticipated. Our plumbers said that we are one of the last ones to get a re-plumb.

All in all I do have to say that I feel so blessed.
