Patience..

Good morning my fine friends! How’s everyone doing on this Tuesday? It’s about time I get back to work, after having 4 days off. They were heaven, though, and much, much needed to feel better! Smile Also helps that I am back at one of my favorite schools today! Always a nice way to return to work.

As you can see, nothing has been fixed on this good ‘ol blog Angry smile  Bluehost is not helpin me out and I am about ready to try a different web host! Today has to be better, though, so I’m glad you stopped by Smile

That’s what I keep trying to tell myself!

Yesterday afternoon, our realtor e-mailed me a new listing, which was beautiful, and I immediately knew I wanted to see it. Well, he works fast, and we went last night! It was so great, and I am in love with it! It is four floors, four bedrooms, two fireplaces, family room, gameroom. Everything I want! So, we’ll be keeping our eye on that one Winking smile

Picture of the living room when you walked in! There is a fireplace on the opposite wall, too!

Last night, Aaron and I also watched D’Jango Unchained! Anyone ever see it? I personally had a hard time following it all. I should just stick to comedy and romance! Ha It was very goory and a tad too gross for me! It was a great production, though!

Keep an eye out for another Trainer Tuesday post coming at ya later today!

 

Questions:

  • Have you seen any movies lately that you are in love with?
  • Have you seen Safe Haven? I really want to see that ASAP!

Frustrated!

Well, today hasn’t gone exactly as planned! We’ll get to that in a second.

Workout:

I started Phase 4 (what? Already!?) of Best Body Bootcamp today! It called for strength A, which paired an exercise with a cardio burst. I LOVED it! I always love adding cardio bursts in to my workouts so that I keep my heart rate up! I was sweating and feeling great. It called for Cardio A if you didn’t complete at least 4 sets, but I still did a bit of Cardio A just because I took the weekend off! I only got to 20 minutes and called it a day! Perfect workout, and totally enjoyable!

Breakfast:

I ate a banana before working out, and then it ended up being after 10 when I finished my workout! So, I had half of a Cinnamon muffin to hold me over until lunch.

Lunch:

What to do with taco leftovers? Taco salad, of course!

Naturally I meant to take a picture before destroying it. But, needless to say I forgot!  I had romaine, sprinkle of cheddar cheese, taco meat, salsa, and plain Greek Yogurt! I made the switch last night to plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, and will never go back! You are definitely not missing anything from the sour cream and the Greek yogurt is good for you! Makes me happy, that’s for sure!

Alright, people, I need help. I have spent countless hours this past weekend and then today, especially, trying to figure out self hosting! I currently have my own domain,  but run it through wordpress.com. I want to upgrade to a Genesis Theme, which you need to be self-hosted for. I currently have a BlueHost account, but was actually thinking of switching to GoDaddy because it is cheaper. Any thoughts? Anyone have help for me in switching? I have been all over Google, and not really finding out much other than horror stories! Ahh!

Also, if you experience any difficulty with my blog in the next few days, please stick with it! I am trying my best to not mess up anything, but who knows what will happen in this world of technology! Thank you! You are truly the best!

Question:

  • Was there anything you wish you would’ve known before going self hosted?
  • Anything I should be prepared for after I become self-hosted? Do I even use WordPress anymore? Naturally, I’m lost. Sad smile 

Catch ya tomorrow with Trainer Tuesday!

MIMM #3!

Good Morning, everyone! Hopefully your weekends were just what you needed to kick off another week! I actually have off today because it’s President’s Day, so schools are closed. Lucky Me Smile 

It’s also time for another Marvelous In My Monday!

Marvelous Was…

  • Getting plenty of rest and relaxation this weekend to feel better and actually feeling better! Ear feels better, less coughing, and my stitches aren’t in as much pain anymore! Still annoying and can’t lean on anything so sleeping is hard but ill take it as a win!
  • Catching up on all my DVR shows! I still have to catch up on Revenge,  but I watch that with my parents so we need to set up some time!

  • Going to our first marriage class- we didn’t fight and actually not learning anything we didn’t already know! It was on communication, but we handled it like rock stars! After 8 years, we really do know each other. As all the other couples were in deep conversations comparing answers, Aaron and I were tearing up from laughing that we had the same answers! Pretty awesome and makes me feel like we are totally ready for marriage! Lets hope the rest of the classes tell us that!
