Worry, worry

We are bidding on a house this week.  I cannot seem to stop worrying about it. Worry if we get it, worry if we don't get it.  Are we moving forward? Are we stretching ourselves to thin? We currently rent the house we live in and love it. We have grown attached to our neighbours, put roots down and soon Mister will be starting kindergarten and we'd like to keep him in the nearby school.  So a house came up for sale on our street this week.  A little out of our price range but manageable. So we will bid. I'm hoping that the stars align for us. It is a fixer-upper and needs a lot of work.  Only immediate thing would be the wiring and the rest would have to wait. 

In the meantime, I seem to be eating everything in the house!!  Let me say that Weight Watchers has been going fantastic. I am down nineteen pounds in 13 weeks.  Not too shabby! But my strategy for coping with stress tends to be eating.  So today I thought I would step up my workout routine and add some running. I did 15 minutes of running on the treadmill and another 25 of walking.  We'll see how this stress busting strategy works. 

Dolly is starting to get teeth.  She is growing so fast and looks so much like Mister that I can't believe it.  I am the luckiest woman alive to have these two little critters and my loving husband.  I count my blessings.
