Gosh, I thought I was back. For some reason I have just had a hard time finding time to sit down and write, and hard time finding things to write about. But here is a little catch up about the goings on in the Warnick family.
I'm continuing Crossfit and love it despite having trouble finding motivation to go sometimes. I attend the 7 AM class and sometimes I just don't want to get out of bed. I usually make myself go and always enjoy when I go. Its just the getting myself there part that is hard.
We love our pups. They have always brought us entertainment and joy. We got them to help us cope with infertility and man do they keep us happy and on our toes. They are best buds! Scout is a little spunky dog that knows what she likes and will always be a fighter. Swede is the sweetest, most snuggly, chill dog who isn't afraid to bite Scout's ankles and yet takes Scout pushing her around. They always have us laughing.
McKay brought me a happy bouquet of yellow and white daisies and the first wild sunflower of the season. I wasn't having a very good day and I had asked him to pick up a few things at the store. He came home with all the items I had requested and the additional beautiful bouquet. The thoughtfulness of the bouquet was exactly what I needed. McKay love me and knows me so well. I think daisies are some of the happiest flowers, with the exception of sunflowers. I love the wild sunflowers that pop up all over Utah in the summer. I'm waiting a few more weeks until I can make a full bouquet out of the sunny blooms.
I'm trying out some natural skin care. A little while ago a friend posted on Facebook about an app she uses to find clean bathroom products (makeup, soap, shampoo, face wash, etc). The app is called Think Dirty. I've been trying to slowly replace products I use with products that have more natural ingredients. So I found a facial toner and a moisturizing serum that I have started using. So far my face is still getting use to the products. I usually only use water to rinse my face and my face does pretty well aside from being a little dry. With these new products my face is definitely not dry, but I'm having a few breakouts. Hopefully my skin adjusts and I can continue using the products. Ok, enough about that haha.
McKay has been asked to go back to working 50 hour weeks. Unfortunately this might be one of the last straws for him. McKay has been working really hard and the higher ups in the company refuse to see the progress that is being made. They keep making changes to the plans for the project which has McKay going back and re-doing parts of the project. They're project management just isn't great. And McKay and his coworkers are having to deal with it. So we may be looking for a new job soon.
While I was growing up my mom often used a Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. There are so many great recipes in that book and looking at it now you can sure tell it has been well loved. McKay got me a newer version of the cookbook for Christmas two years ago. It has sat in my kitchen with the rest of my recipe books and has not really been used. What a waste! I opened it this past week and found so many great recipes! I've used it twice in the past few days and am sure I will continue finding some wonderful things in that wonderful book.
That is about all I can think about right now. I will make an effort to get back into the groove of writing weekly! Until next time :)
