After my sweaty workout, I came home and was hungry so I made a nice lunch for myself. Today's lunch included two whole wheat tortillas, turkey, lettuce, and spinach and artichoke hummus- this stuff is da bees knees! On the side I had some carrots and more hummus. 

Yummers

After re-fueling, Bridget and I started to clean out the closet outside of her room for me to use while I stay here for the summer. I am already so much happier to be moved out of that apartment! Phew. De-cluttering took about two hours and then once that was finished we unloaded the car from last night, which was not too bad since Madelyn, my friend from school was over to help us too. We took everything up to the attic, it was very hard and exhausting! After that was finished we made a trip to Home Depot to buy a rod to hang all of my clothes. We ended up not even using it. I'm so glad I am finally settled in, since I have been hanging in limbo all this time! I am currently snacking on more carrots and some peanut butter...my fav. We are ordering Japanese takeout later and just relaxing for the rest of this rainy night. Have a fabulous Saturday night!
