It’s finally summertime! #summer #vacation

​I can’t believe it’s finally summer vacation time. I’ve been waiting and planning for so long to visit my BFF in NB. It’s been over 6 years since she moved provinces and I can’t wait to see her. 

The last time I saw Mel I weighed around 180lbs… I’m now 137lbs. I wear a woman’s size medium and a size 4. Even my feet feel smaller… less wide. I’m the lowest weight since I was in high school. My final goal weight is 135lbs. 

 Tomorrow I’m jumping on the Go train with my love and the two cute little monster’s. Yes, it’s our annual summer two week vacation and I wonder how long before I lose my shit! I kind of lost it earlier today at the pool/splash pad since Brianna lost her new Jean shorts. What kind of person would steal jean shorts from a kid? I ended up giving her a pair of mine… don’t really have time to buy another pair.

I will be posting pics along the way, so stay tuned!

Best Ways to Beat the Heat - vacation edition

With record-breaking heat, people the world over had to get creative with ways to stay cool. In Paris, France, they frolicked in public fountains during the heatwave. Luckily for those in the United States, most homes and businesses are air-conditioned, particularly in the south. It is good to know that if there is any problem with your AC unit, businesses like Sunair company are there to help. Read on for some other ways to beat the heat in the summer.

Wear Loose Clothing

Wearing loose clothing that allows air to circulate is a great way to stay cool in the heat. Cotton is ideal for summer clothes as it is comfortable, absorbs sweat and dries quickly. If you work in offices that are cool, layer so that you can take something off when you have to go back outside. Keep to light colors, as well, as they reflect heat.

Can't Sleep Again!

Once again I'm not able to sleep. Vivek is over and is fast asleep... I'm jealous he was able to pass out so quickly. Each time I lay down I find myself coughing... I can't seem to get rid of this cough. I came outside to the livingroom so that I wouldn't wake him up.

We stayed in and watched a movie on the boob tube... nothing too exciting. He's been waiting to hear from his mom... she left for India yesterday evening. Vivek seems to be so sad... this is the first time that he's away from her for so long. She will be gone for two months... wish I was going on a vacation for two months! I would be too scared to fly that far, especially with my condition that I have. I wouldn't want to end up sick in another country.

Summer is on it's way... it's the first long weekend of the summer season! The weather for the coming week is showing hot and humid... just what I hate. I don't like the humidity... body feels so sticky and warm, sweating all over... I hate the sweat dripping down my face it's embarassing. So much for losing weight before the hot weather! I get scared when there's extreme heat... reminds me of last years tornado.
