Autumn has hit our part of the country completely the past 2 weeks. We've had cool weather and rain, and more rain and even more rain. I love to sit inside with a cup of hot cocoa and a plate of cookies and read the day away when the weather is like this.
But I'm trying to loose weight, so cookies are out, and the hot cocoa that I allow myself is a very seldom indulgence right now.
So instead I've found myself cleaning out shelves, sorting through kids clothes, rearranging my kitchen cabinets, and trying to keep myself busy through the day. The busier I am, the less likely I am to just grab something to "snack" throughout the day.
And so my closets are looking cleaner, my overflowing pile of clothes the kids have grown out of have been tossed, or given away to others, and I have a new found place in the kitchen to store some bulk items and other stuff I used to have to store in the laundry room.
I've also managed to loose 8 pounds in the process.
So as London Tipton would say "Yea me!" (If you don't watch the Disney Channel on occasion you probably won't get that- and that's okay. :-) )
