The temperature was absolutely perfect for some outdoor exercise, so Tex and I went about 2.5 miles. I also completed Day 5 of Jillian Michaels 30-day shred challenge. I'm still huffing and puffing my way through it, but I do feel like I'm keeping up a little better with each workout. My goal is to move up to Level 2 by Day 10, then Level 3 on Day 20. I can't wait to see how my figure is going to change throughout this process. My friends told me when we went out Friday for Lori's birthday that I definitely look smaller. My heart melts a little any time I hear that. :) (Thanks, Lori and Jess!)

Another thing that melts my heart -- good deals. I mentioned in Friday's post that Lori and I were going to an auction on Saturday. We met there around 4 p.m., and I'm so glad the rain didn't deter us from going! Being a bit of a competitor, this was the perfect activity for me. There were so many great antiques, china, pictures, old iron toys, and plenty of people there eager for a good bargain. The husband and I have been on the search for a china cabinet for our dining room, and low and behold, there was a beautiful one there that was almost the exact color of our table! It took awhile for the piece to go up for bid, but when it did, I was ready. It took some convincing from Lori for me to make my final offer, but when I did, the other bids ceased, and the auctioneer yelled, SOLD! YES!! I can't wait to fill it with special glassware, plates and other things when it arrives later this week. I got an amazing deal too, because all the similar ones I found online were 4-5 times more than what I paid for it. I will have to share some pics when we pick it up.
Have you gotten a great deal on something recently? Hope everyone has a good week!
