my week in pictures

Tuesday morning I got up and did my 2.25 mile walk around the neighborhood, despite the disgustingly muggy weather (due to another hurricane pushing rain into AZ). #operationweightloss #beinghealthygettingbetter

Then my favorite pair of shoes broke at work. #sadface

Dad filled sandbags to guard against flooding issues in this second wave of mega storms being predicted. #monsoonseason #ifyearepreparedyeshallnotfear

Wednesday, they put up a valiant fight against the water, but we were kind of fighting a losing battle. #whenitrainsitfloods

Double rainbow over the Mesa Community College Red Mountain campus that evening.  #beautyamidstthestorms

Went to CVS with Mom Friday after work and watched a master couponer (Mom) in action: 12) 14 oz bags of M&M's for $1.25 each!  #amazing

I have Paris set as one of the cities that shows on my weather app.  I torture myself everyday looking at it, wishing I were there.  It's especially difficult when I see weather like this.  I'm tired of summer and ready for it to be over.  I'd also like a vacation please.  I am feeling the need to run away from life right now.  My stress and anxiety about money and my decreased income are getting the best of me right now. #beinganadultishard

Went to Walmart last night with Mom, Dad, and Julia.  Julia needed to stop at the bank beforehand.  This is her, using the ATM from the backseat of the Nitro.  LOL!  #awkward #bumshot

While there I tried on and bought two shirts that were size LARGE!  That made me do a little happy dance in the dressing room.  #operationweightloss #slowandsteadywinstherace

Favorite quote from church today. #highcounselorsundy

First attempt ever at making fried chicken tonight for dinner.  #success #impressedwithmyself
