Ups and Downs

Things have been busy around here.  I'm planning for multiple trips in the next couple of months, I'm finally finishing up decorating around the house (pictures coming soon), I've been trying to cook and exercise more to counterbalance all of the eating out and drinking I've been doing, and I'm helping S look for a new place.  Not to mention I'm supporting on console this week, which always means I'm going to have a super busy week at work.

On the plus side, this past weekend I got a TON of stuff done around the house, I made it to the gym twice last week and once already this week, I've made some excellent food recently including a mushroom and truffle risotto and a batch of turkey chili (see S's very first chili cheese omelet above!), and I've gotten some serious planning done on upcoming trips.

On the down side, it turns out S got outbid on the house we really liked, being a hardware lead at work is starting to overwhelm me a bit, and those trips aren't cheap...

One day at a time, right?
