Just checking in.

Mallory!

I know we talk all the time, but I still feel like I haven't talked to you as much within the past week. Is that weird? Life has just gotten so busy for both of us. We texted throughout the weekend, but I was kind of in my own mind Saturday and Sunday. Work is fine, but my spirit has been crushed a bit. Aaron and I are confused about what we want to do after the military, so we've been talking about that a lot. The weather has been all over the place, which always takes a toll on me.

Etc.

What did I do over the weekend? Well, I explored the main library downtown. It may be one of my favorite spots in our new town. It's huge--like all good downtown libraries--and always filled with interesting characters. Parking is free downtown, which makes the trip even more exciting [I'm such a tightwad].

I worked out on Sunday solo. This is always a big deal for me because I'm not very self-motivated unless I'm seeing results. And! Lo and behold! I'm seeing results! So it was a productive trip to the gym. My goal is to get my butt back and my triceps. I would also love to be able to "run" [on the elliptical] without talking myself off of it [always a struggle]. I also need to find a motivating playlist. But that's not important. Right? [Actually, in my case, it is very important. To me.]

I also snapped a few shots of this forgotten house.

I also took the dogs for a few walks. The weather was fantastic--sunny, warm enough to walk around without a jacket, but I was still able to layer up--and they are in dire need of more leash training. [Does leash training feel like a constant battle to anyone else? Sometimes they're great. Other times it's all "SQUIRREL!" and all of a sudden you're being dragged across the sidewalk.]

How was your weekend? Did you get anything fun accomplished? Did you relax? How is Harry? How is Calvin?
