When we went down to pay the rent yesterday, the super told us that there were two apartments in the building that needed to have the floors redone this week. What are the odds that, out of about 200 apartments in my building, one of those two is right above mine? It wasn’t great waking up to hammering and pounding right above our room at 9:30. Ugh.

I’m crocheting myself a new scarf. Why, you ask? Because I got a new coat today! It’s a nice long black coat that looks a lot like this one. It’s exactly the coat I wanted, and for only $8 it was totally worth it! I also got myself a new purse, which I really needed. It fits my wallet and my little makeup bag with plenty of room to spare. It’s fantastic!

I made stuffed manicotti for dinner today. Not easy to stuff, but it was yummy anyway! It was nice to have a home-cooked meal.

I’m totally slacking on weight loss right now. It’s all the drinking I did this weekend - I’m totally bloated. But I’ll be back on track as soon as I shake this cold! Not to mention I’ve exercised more than normal the past two days - lots of walking and lifting. Definitely a good thing, right?
