Resolution

So there I am, sitting in the hairdresser's chair. It's 10:00 in the morning on a Saturday. She has just combed out my curly hair, and has gone to mix my color. I glance up, and staring back at me from the mirror is an aging, fat Puerto Rican with gray hair sticking out in all directions.

It's then I realize that I have let myself go. It happens to most of us, at one time or another, I suppose. But this time I have let myself go too far. Funny how we can almost talk ourselves into believing we're doing ok. But I think I've known for a while how unhappy I've been with myself. So I resolved to do something about it.

Thursday was my first weigh-in for Weight Watchers. It was, in a small way, a good day for me. It was the last day that I will see that number when I step on the scale. My resolution is to lose 28 lbs. The Weight Watchers program is 14 weeks. If I average 2 lbs per week, I will be at my goal by July 10. Stay tuned for updates.

Taxes have been filed

We're getting a refund. YAY!

I feel so much better now that it is done. We have been so focused on getting the house ready that we haven't been paying attention to anything else. I don't EVER wait until April 11 to file, but I do feel better now that it's done.

As Jay said once we got the numbers, "That's going toward the hardwood floor fund." One step closer. : )

More Regular Stuff - YAY!

I have been pretty busy lately trying to get the new house ready. We have painted most of the downstairs, and got the first coat on the gameroom upstairs. I plan to have pics up soon. We are going to take our dog out to see the new house this weekend. She has never had a yard to play in (except when we take her to the dog park) so she'll be so happy!

My sister, brother-in-law, and my niece came over to see the house on Sunday. My niece was so cute going up and down the stairs, running in circles in the (still-unfurnished) rooms, and sharing her jelly beans with us. I love spending time with her. She's going to be such a big helper when her brother comes along.

What is a PRG?

PRG started out as something my husband used to call me, long before he was my husband. Shortly after we started dating, he started calling me "Puerto Rican Goddess," or PRG.

Most days lately, I just feel like a Pretty Regular Girl. So this blog will journal my days as a PRG. Some days that will mean my adventures as a Puerto Rican Goddess; other days I'll just be a Pretty Regular Girl.

I hope you can find entertainment in both.
