So my diet has been going okay, down about 3 pounds since it started so I can't complain. I have broken it once at work, I ate a cupcake but I made up for it by walking around the work site for about 3 hours afterwards!
The weather has been gorgeous lately so we have been doing more things outside. Today we went on a nice bike ride and then came home and power washed the brick and cut down a huge limb that was hanging on our power line. Football starts next Saturday so I hope the weather stays as nice as it has been! We also installed new handles on our cabinets in our kitchen, we both like them a lot!
We have also talked about our trip next year to Europe and we have decided, assuming I get approval for the days off, to spend 3 weeks (23 days) in Central/Eastern Europe. Where we are looking at going now is: Salzburg and Vienna Austria, Budapest Hungary, Krakow and Warsaw Poland, and Munich for Oktoberfest. The money is pretty much saved for it so we are starting to get excited!
This is a slight rant after the recent political news. How did people in America forget separation of church and state? The Mosque in NYC has to be allowed to be built, America is a country for freedom of religion and we cannot tell any religious organization where and when they can build things unless we equally do the same to every religion (so this would mean no churches in NYC also). Then today Beck does a speech and starts it out with "America today begins to turn back to God." That would be fine is it was "American's" as in the people of our country but our country isn't for or about God. Our country was built for the religious and nonreligious. American's need to realize that the separation of church and state is the only way to guarantee everyone equal freedoms but at the same time that does not prevent individuals from being religious. Okay rant over, but I am slightly scared for the next elections.
