Tracking on sparkpeople.com has gone well the past few days. I haven't been within my calorie range, but that isn't my goal for now... just trying to get into the habit of tracking again. I definitely think being aware of my calorie intake is making a big difference on what is going into my body.

Our ac has been running ALL DAY today and its still 85 degrees in here. I swear our apartment is designed to waste energy... the sun beats down on it and into the windows over half the day and the ac cannot keep up. Looking forward to cooler weather...

I was looking through Better Homes and Gardens today and feeling inspired. I love some of the colors that are popular right now- coffee colors, tomato reds, and turquoise. I feel like buying some paint and painting our table and getting a slip cover for the sofa :D If only I knew how to sew I'd make our own. I'd love to reupholster our chairs too :) My gramma and momma know how to do that stuff, maybe I can get some help if I can find some fabric I like. I have this beautiful lamp in my living room that I'd like to design the room around- Maybe I can put a mosaic on top our table- that would be pretty sweet. The dollar store has ceramic plates I could bust up for that. I'm sure big lots would be a great place to look for things too.

Look at the colors outside our window right now! I can't get over how green the pond looks- its beautiful, almost an emerald color.
