Being a Big Loser...Week 8-9

1.4 pounds gone!

Which I was amazed for, because I weighed yesterday and was UP FOUR POUNDS.

Never weighing in the afternoon again.

Given the amount of busy-ness from the past week, its no wonder I lost though.

Since last week's Big Loser post, we have closed on the house, did a bunch of updates and cleaning to it (I listed that last post!), and had our very first official homeowners "OMG there is no maintenance crew to fix this...time to panic" moment.

We bug bombed the house Saturday so we turned off the gas water heater.

And then we couldn't get it to light when we tried to turn it back on.

So we scheduled Laclede to come take a look.

Let's just say they charge CRAZY high rates on service.

Thankfully, we have family around, and THANKFULLY they know people who can fix things.

So last night involved me making a flying trip to the house in order to meet dad's mechanic/fixer guy.

Mom and Jenna met me there and helped unload the load of stuff I had brought.

Dad's fixer guy was AWESOME!

He got it lit, showed me how to do so, and he fixed the leaking valve.

For about half the price of Laclede's rate.

So many things to be thankful for today!
