my handy-man

Jeremy decided that we needed some organization in our media niche. So, he designed, built and installed a custom built-in unit. Check out the pictures:

This is before. Unorganized.

Jeremy had loads of fun sanding after assembling the cut pieces.

In our basement after priming.

Dain wanted to help Daddy install the electronics.

Finished product. Doesn't it look great? I married a genius.

I haven't blogged in a while, but our lives have been, thankfully, pretty much uneventful. If there's anything new to report, it's that Jeremy and I are finally getting serious about our fitness and semi-serious about what we are eating. :) I had a small victory in January... I gave up Diet Coke for good! I had been up to 3 a day... and when I quit cold-turkey, I had a headache for 2 weeks straight! However, it's so good to be on this side of it!
I have been unhappy with how I look and feel for quite a while. I had managed to lose all my my baby weight from having Dain last spring (about 30 pounds), but now I still have more to lose to really be healthy. So, starting Monday, I will be working with a personal trainer at the gym. I am also modifying my diet according to my doctor's recommendations. Hopefully soon I will be able to post some good results and "before and after" photos!
Also, I have a goal in mind. We will be going to Aruba later this year, and I hope to be bikini-ready by then! :)
I will keep you posted on our progress!
