Today was bad for exercise decent for food. That sounds like a recurring them but I am really going to start trying to change that to good on exercise and food.
I was running a little behind this morning so I decided to stop and grab some breakfast at McDonalds on my way to work. I got an Egg McMuffin meal and found out that I also got a second free Egg McMuffin. That was a pleasant surprise. So I had two egg McMuffins, a coffee and a hash brown for breakfast.
For Lunch I had a Chipolte Chicken hot pocket, a yoghurt, a string cheese and a granola bar. I was able to successfully suppress my urge for a candy bar today!
When I got home we were going to go look at houses at 5 so we had decided to eat after we got home from that. I had a bit of a irritating/stressful/annoying/bad day at work so I grabbed a bag of chips and munched on a few of those and had a Christmas tree cake before we left to look at houses.
We went and looked at four houses and we liked two of them so 50% on the night was pretty good.
The first house looked nice in pictures but it was a little rough on the inside. It was a forcloser so it didn't surprise me that most of the appliances were gone. What did surprise me was that through out the entire up stairs of this split level every baseboard had been removed. Then in the basement there was a bright pink bathroom that was a turn off right away. Then there were all of these little boxy rooms. We think judging by their size and wired outlets in the rooms that they might have been used as a Grow House. With all of the problems with this house and the price it was removed from the list of houses we like.
The second house we looked at was a small two bedroom house but you could tell the person had taken the time to care about the house. It had all new windows upstairs and all wood floors upstairs. They had redone the kitchen and it was very nice with new appliances. The basement had a family room, a laundry room, a furnace room and a storage room. It all laid out very nicely and there was a lot of usable space down there. The part of the house I really liked was the outdoor areas. Off the back door it had a nice large wooden deck. Then on the side of the one stall garage it had a large covered patio. The garage was one stall but it had a half stall work area in it and was very deep. Then the drive way was two cars wide and at least two cars deep, maybe three cars deep. Over all we really liked this house and it climbed to near the top of our list.
The Third House we saw another split level. It was an OK house but it felt like it needed some work and it just didn't feel like a house we could make out own. So we removed the house from our list as well.
The last house we looked at was like 3 blocks from our current house. It was a two story town home with a basement. It was actually a little larger then our current house but since it was in foreclosure it was very cheap. We really liked it and it went to the to of list until we found out the next day that it had sold.
After we got done with the last house we made a short trip home. For supper we made sandwiches and had chips. I toasted my bread and had mustard, mayo, roast beef and mozzarella cheese on my sandwich. It was very tasty and went will with some spicy Jalapeño Jack Sun Chips we had. After supper I had a Christmas tree cake and then a few M&M's before I went to bed.
