Finally! 1 month ago

I start on Monday- I am so excited. It feels like I have been on 700 interviews, when in reality I think it has only been 500.


Take my makeup off every night
Getting closer 2 months ago

This week I removed my makeup 4 days out of 7. I am hoping I can do it everynight this week and then maintain it! I am not taking it off my list until I don’t even realize I do it anymore. Then I will know it is a habit not a trend.


smile more
Lip gloss helps! 2 months ago

I just bought an array of new lip glosses at the mall. They look ravishing and they are definitly making me smile more! I am getting close to taking this one off the list…. :) :) :)

Change of goal 2 months ago

I realized that I always always say ‘I love you’ to Matt as well as the kitty. I am now going to try and say it to other people in my life I care about more, especially my dear friends.


Stop using paper napkins
Down to the end... 2 months ago

We are down to the end of our paper napkin supply! We have 16 cloth napkins ready for the transfer over. I am sure we will still use paper towels for some things, but I did just get a pack of microfiber cloths which I am going to use for cleaning more and try to cut down on the use of paper towels. We also stopped buying plastic cups and after this batch of paper plates we are done with those too!

Book #1 2 months ago

Completed! And well worth the read! It was a very social workey book so the next book I choose will be something a little bit more light hearted and fun. Maybe some trashy girly novel, but probably not ;)

Catering 2 months ago

We met with our first caterer yesterday as well as went over to the park to see our ceremony site. I get the deepest sense of happiness when I think about standing up to marry my best friend next September. All of the wedding details are just icing on the cake… pun intended! ;)


always be the bigger person
Being selfish doesn't fit with this equation 3 months ago

I am feeling bad because I acted very selfishly yesterday. I like being able to do what I want to do, when I want to do it- who doesnt? I have to remember that every single one of my actions creates a reaction and realistically I do not want to hurt anyone I care about.

Dead in the water 3 months ago

well the job I was really interested in finally answered my phone call just long enough to let me know I am not being considered. You win some, you lose some. Now I have to kick it into full gear. I have resumes out all over the place- there is one job I am hopeful about so maybe some progress by the end of this week.

Getting back on the horse 3 months ago

I didn’t do horribly the last two days, but I definitley did not do well. All of the M&M’s are gone from the house now, so that will help a bit. I ended up eating almost 1500 calories on Monday and 1300 on Tuesday!

The weight on the scale hasn’t been going down at all so I really need to push it this week. I HAVE to go running later and I might try and give up sweets from tomorrow until the 28th. Off to drink my morning soy shake!


Go Kayaking
No excuses 3 months ago

Well, my Dad came over with a 14 foot 2 person kayak two days ago as a present for getting my degree. Now I have no excuse and I am looking forward to getting out on the lake and pushing some water.

But pasta salad is delicious! 3 months ago

Had my graduation and party yesterday and definitley did not stick to my diet. I can’t even think about the calories I ingested. The important thing is to pick up where I left off and keep going. I was celebrating and the cookout food was just a bump in the road- I can’t let it turn into a pothole!

Back to brown rice and steamed veggies! yum!

Graduation Day 3 months ago

Well,

Matt was still wicked sick, but he helped me get into my robe and brought me to graduation. I walked across the stage for my diploma and didn’t fall! The party afterwards was a good time. We got rained on but the food was good and the company was even better. Now the pressure is on to find a career!

Graduation day! 3 months ago

Tomorrow is graduation day… rain or shine- I am personally hoping for shine. I am stoked to be done with school but nervous about my future. I finished my undergraduate in 2.5 years. Next is a masters degree- in what? Your guess is as good as mine…
