Tell me about your small wins today!

Between yesterday and today I have burned a big stockpile of records more than ten years old! Taxes, real estate files, who knows what else... There's still a fair amount of paper left, but it is great to have gotten through that!
 
Coming back to update that I’m now 2lbs away from 70lbs lost, this also means I am 30lbs away from losing 100lbs. I haven’t lost too much since August but any progress is progress nonetheless.

I shared these pictures on IG but also wanted to share them here.

@YadaYadaYada Girl!!!! So proud of you! It takes incredible dedication and consistency over a long period of time. A lot of people try to do what you have done and throw in the towel… you are incredible!

Not only have you lost 70 pounds, but your body is thanking you from the inside… you have created a healthier environment for your organs to work to their fullest, lowered your risk in cancer, heart disease and a melting pot of many other conditions. And thats not including the mental health improvements from not only taking the weight off, but knowing you had it in you and YOU DID IT!

Sending much love and health to you along your maintenance journey!

I only have two windows to paint!
I got a snap before the sun fully set.
He says we're never painting it ourselves again. Twice was enough. I have to say I agree. It's a lot harder when you're doing it yourself with no scaffolding in the aches of middle age.
This was a big year for major updates/repair.
There will be a ton more to do next year.
We need a break.:lol:

Love the color! Is it a historical shade?
 
I’m gonna take a wild guess and say it’s BM Van Deusen Blue? Possibly Farrows & Ball Hague Blue?

That color is so moody...I love it!
My house is blue, too!

Me too, even more than I expected to. What sorcery is this!
It solves all my indecisiveness!

It's a bit like Payne's Gray, one of my favorite watercolors!

My house is a light Wedgwood blue.
 
that's wonderful. It is great that you have a partner with a joint goal. Cudos to you both.

You look terrific. Healthy and happy!
 
@caf thank you, and I feel so much better so that’s the real motivation that keeps me going ;)
 
One week sober today! Dh and I have been drinking WAY too much since the onset of the pandemic, so I'm finally nipping it at the bud, and 1 week wine-free = down 5lbs!

Good for you! I've done that, however only off and on, but it's amazing how fast you lose 5 lbs when you don't drink wine!
