My lovely lady lumps…
After a week and one day of South Beach Phase 1, I promoted myself to Phase 2. I know, it’s supposed to last for two weeks, but I just got so damn bored. Tim is so limited with what he can eat, and with me limiting myself as well, we just couldn’t figure out meals that we could eat together. Phase 2 means I can have whole grain tortillas and bread, and wine with dinner. Besides, I lost 5 lbs in a week, and that is enough for now. Oh and I've been working out every day. Gunnar Peterson is my new best friend...
So, the eating at home every day thing has been going pretty well. We still eat a cheap Thai lunch here and there. But we have definitely made more money this past week then we have spent. I didn’t anticipate being this busy with free lance work, but as soon as I finished one project, there was another waiting for me. I really love doing this type of work. Designing is so much fun. I was working on some web designs yesterday and I ended up not being able to sleep. I kept thinking about, “should I fill this space with this color and then I could place that one image over the top and then use this font to…” blah blah blah. It’s awesome to have this job, that is for sure.
Things are working out well with Tim and I at home. We don’t see that much of each other during the day. I’m usually working in my office and he’s in his. We haven’t been eating breakfast together as much, because I like to work out right when I wake up and by the time I’m done and showered, he’s already at work. We have been eating lunch together though. It’s a nice break for us and we get a chance to talk about what’s going on in our day. I’m still not used to this way of living, but it’s pretty amazing. I don't dread the phone ringing anymore, oh and my left eye stopped twitching.
Tim and I helped our friends ,Charleigh and Blaine, move into their new house. They didn’t end up buying, but they did find this amazing little Victorian house to rent right in the city. They live so close to us now. I’m glad we’ve decided not to move into a smaller place. It would save us some money, but the money we'd save isn't enough to make us want to share an office. We need our space and this house is perfect for that. Plus, It seems like we are finally getting to the point where most of our friends live close enough to us that we can hang out more. It’s becoming more of a community this way.
Some of you might remember my friend Daniel who had a pretty popular blog for a while. I took him off my blogroll when he went underground for a few months, But he’s back and I assume loads of drunken poetry will follow. (Glad you’re back, Sailor…)
Oh, and Tim got his hair cut today. It’s a lot shorter than it’s been for a while, but it looks really good. Ain’t he dreamy?

Yeah, he's a babe no matter what length his hair is and he is so lucky to have a wife who adores him.
