Working with children in a school... it's not always convenient to go to the bathroom when the urge hits. Your husband and I are in the same boat. I'd say most educators probably are dehydrated Monday through Friday.<br /><br />So far, the no shopping is going OK. But, I find myself making lists of things to buy in May. <br /><br />I'm so happy that you guys found a house!Ericka @ A Quiet Girl's Musings...https://www.blogger.com/profile/11041608167418967580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938017709366022158.post-45716798851257019912017-04-11T20:20:43.763-04:002017-04-11T20:20:43.763-04:00Yep, it's been wild.

Mamma Mia! was fun. I've seen it before, but my folks have not. It was fun seeing it with them.Ericka @ A Quiet Girl's Musings...https://www.blogger.com/profile/11041608167418967580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938017709366022158.post-15829090213723561662017-04-11T20:13:44.797-04:002017-04-11T20:13:44.797-04:00Thank you! It's been an interesting quest! T...Thank you! It's been an interesting quest! Truth is, I had a lot of clothes that were the size I was when I started last summer and a lot of clothes in the next size down (like shorts) that I had outgrown, but still had. I am now a size smaller than the smallest size I had in clothes, so there were many items to purge. I am hoping this time around that I will be more of a minimalist and not buy so many things. I mean... I had 14 work polos, that's almost 3 weeks worth. Who needs that many polos, especially since I have a working washer and dryer in my house?<br /><br />I believe, too, that weight loss is more diet than exercise, although exercise helps. It is frustrating, but I'm doing my best to stay the course and, as you said, keep on keeping on.Ericka @ A Quiet Girl's Musings...https://www.blogger.com/profile/11041608167418967580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938017709366022158.post-21223435045863356282017-04-11T20:00:20.972-04:002017-04-11T20:00:20.972-04:00Yes, for all the downfalls of technology, there ar...Yes, for all the downfalls of technology, there are moments of absolute brilliance when technology is awesome, like in this instance.

KC struggles because he has to teach and all that jazz. but i suck at drinking any water on the weekends. i need to be better at that. good luck on the no shopping/spending in april! i really need to do a month like that. i am doing great on my no shopping for clothes and such, but i feel like we are just hemorrhaging money lately because of the house and we really need to recover lol.Kristen @ See You In A Porridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592108031437491276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938017709366022158.post-89099936248856957712017-04-06T19:46:02.713-04:002017-04-06T19:46:02.713-04:00That's so cool that you can live stream the we...That's so cool that you can live stream the wedding!

My friend got remarried last May and her daughter is a Marine stationed in Japan but they face-timed the ceremony so she could feel like part of it and "be there"- I thought that was so sweet.
