I didn’t vote .. I know I’m bad. The thing is, I continued to flip-flop on that stupid amendment all day long, yes or no, yes or no. So I decided to leave it up to everybody else in the state, I’m fine with whatever they choose. Turns out they chose yes. Rumor has it that the amendment is going to be challenged in court, but hopefully it’ll stick around, I was kinda getting used to the idea of a few tax breaks. But what I really hope for is that those important people up in Tallahassee continue to figure out other solutions to our property tax issue.

What I actually did do yesterday .. is go to the gym. Yeah, remember that post from before the first of the year with all my resolutions and such. Oh, and that 25 lbs to go ticker at the top of this site .. yeah, before yesterday I hadn’t been to the gym since last year (December 31st to be exact). I know, I know .. I had a plan, I had a time scheduled in my day to drag my butt to the gym, but my schedule had to change. I had planned on making the morning my workout time, but I came to realize that mornings are when I’m the most productive for work. I’d get up, take care of the pups, and then sit at the computer to check my email and 4 hours later I’d have completed all my work for the day, but hadn’t made it to the gym. Last night I realized that I’m usually sitting in front of the TV from 6pm on. I know, sad. But the dogs are usually curled up on top of me, and its so nice and warm. So after my fix of national news, I picked myself up and made the half hour drive to our nearest gym, and had my first workout of the year. Yippie!

I used to think I hated working out at night. It would take me awhile to calm down and relax after a workout, which would make it hard to sleep. But I remembered that when I first started last time, I was EXHAUSTED after every workout. So this might actually work out well. I’m going to try my hardest to make it a habit.

Onto today .. our oven stopped working. I really dont know what happened, Thursday it was having problems preheating, I put it on broil instead of bake, and it seemed to fix the problem. Saturday I baked a bunch of cookies for Keith’s birthday present, and didn’t really notice a problem. Although Sean swears the first batches were undercooked, and I swear the last batches were over cooked :\ Onto Sunday and I really wanted one of these Pillsbury whole wheat dinner rolls I recently picked up .. they’re just awesome, nice crusty outside, warm and soft inside (I WANT ONE NOW!!) .. but I turned the oven on and forgot about it. A half hour later I remembered and went to put the rolls in, and the oven was cold I then slammed the oven door about 10 times, but that didn’t fix it, HA. Fast forward to last night, I tried to heat the oven up for shits and giggles .. and nothing happened. So Sears is now on its way to take a look. I’ll update you later. Homeownership is so great. Why do we have such problems with our appliances?!? Ugh.
