Finally Finished!!

I finally finished it!! The table that is..lol
Now I just have to do the side hutch, and I am thinking of doing the folding table and my hope chest in the living room....Then I will move into the bedroom and do all that. And I am considering repainting the bedroom too...sigh
But here is the picture of the dining room table!

Anyways diet is going good, other than I have a freaking cold and I am the all for that feed a cold, starve a fever saying..lol
My throat is sore, and I feel like crap but I am still moving. Yesterday I stayed in bed ALL DAY. I kid you not. I felt that bad.
Today I still feel like crap BUT I am going to finish cleaning the house. I am considering doing some deep cleaning of the living room. Moving the couches and chairs and all the other things and sweeping and mopping. IDK if I am just being too optimistic but I am hoping I can at least do part of it.

It has been raining like crazy the past 3 days, and I have 9 chickens that don't know they are suppose to get out of the rain. They look like drowned rats with feathers..lol

OH OH OH! I have found the plans that I am going to use to make my chicken coop!! It's actually a green house but with a few modifications it will be perfect!

Mine will have a floor and actually be about a foot off the ground,  I am going to have the same material for the top, but the side panels I am going to put chicken wire then either removable panels along the side so I can make it more airy in the summer, but I can close it up for the winter. or panels that lift up and open to let air in.  

The very bottom half I am going to leave like that, but I will be using pallet boards instead of the tin. 

As for the run it will be attached to the front of it a little above the door is where it will connect and will come out about 10 feet and be as wide as the shed.

They will still be able to free range in the backyard, but this way I will feel more comfortable about leaving them out during the day when I am not home.

I have been walking the dogs in the evening and trying to walk them in the morning. Keeps them from peeing in the house and makes them not escape the minute I let them out into the back yard to potty.

Oh and on another note, the grandspawn started school yesterday! First day of pre-K. I took him today, didn't get a picture, but I have one his dad took yesterday.

That's the ODD and the grandspawn :)

Well I am out, I have to go start that deep cleaning........ugh maybe I'll just sweep instead, lol

ttyl!

1st Fill.. Eek

Well I just left the Dr's office after my first fill. It was interesting. 

I have lost 9 pounds from my last visit, so I'm down to 249 pounds.  Total weight loss from the Dr. 

is 29 pounds. 

Yeaaah!

I cant believe my starting weight was 278. OMG I feel different with just the 29 pounds lost. I have more energy, that's for sure!

I cant see it though, I mean everyone else says that they can see a difference, me? I cant tell. 

I think I am still seeing the fatgirl in the mirror instead of the one that is actually there. 

Nothing new is happening.. Oh the little chicks are now laying rather sporadically but laying. 

I am supposed to be getting my pallets tomorrow so I can start work on building my chicken house. 

Ugh I am not looking forward to that..lol Me actually BUILDING something and expecting it to stay up? hahahaha We will see. 

Anyways I am going to update all my tickers and gadgets with the new weight...

Deedle Deedle Deedle

I have been working for a freaking month now on a table that is going into my dining room. I say a month because it feels like it. I got the table about 3 months ago, and it sat under my carport FOREVER.  So I finally went and got the stuff to ''redo'' it.  I had to strip it and sand it before I even got to start on it.

All I have to do now is put the sealer on the top, and I am done with it!!

I did Chalk paint on the bottom, that I made on my own btw.. Go me!

Here is a better close up.

It's pretty cool and super easy to make. 5 tbs of plaster of Paris, 3 tablespoons of cool water, 2 cups of paint (non primer type) And I even made my own tinted wax too :) 

And here is the top :) 

I am so freaking proud of it! 

Now for tomorrow... I am ''redo-ing'' six chairs to match the table. I am going to have red accents and I am going to chalk paint them and destress them like the bottom of the table. 

and here is the chairs I am going to be doing.. I will post finished pictures tomorrow. 

In other news DH got himself a new/used truck! 

I have been using the BodyMedia thing for about 4 days now. I had to move it from my arm to my left calf. I know it says blah blah blah don't do it blah blah but I have been on so many forums and there are quite a few that wear it on their calf and get the same results as wearing it on their arms. 

I have been trying out that theory today and yep, bout the same. 

So I think I am going to start wearing it there. I'm sorry but until I lose enough weight on my left arm where its not uncomfortable and the band wont roll or I have the arm fat surgery, on the leg is where its going to go. 

Anyways I am going to bed! 

Lata taytas!
