The end of another week

So, I'm officially moving in next weekend into my new place of residence. I am so excited! I guess I'm more excited about being closer to work and my friends and going back to the ward where everything seemed to turn around in my life and spirituality. I still don't know who the second roommate is yet. Jake couldn't remember her name when I asked him the other day. Jake has surprised me, yet again. I texted him today while I was in a lull at work and asked how the remodeling was going. He moved my bed from the garage into my room. I was full on expecting to have to move it myself next weekend. Goes to show that he's a true friend....man, I just love that guy! I seriously wasn't expecting him to move any of my stuff, but he did and that makes me like him even more.

Anyway, I'm almost done with work and my weekend can officially begin. I have to stop off at the library before I head home and pick up some books that were put on hold. Reading, packing, painting with Jake and a birthday party. What else can a girl ask for?

I didn't realize you were moving. I'm glad you're getting back into the ward you liked so much. Hey, I think we're coming down for President's Day. I want to get with you and Kelsey and Sam and Golden and Emilie. Tommy is almost one and you haven't even met him yet!!!
Miss you!

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]

Sleepiness becomes me

*sigh* I miss the ocean. Not really the Atlantic Ocean, although I have to say that the East Coast has some beautiful beaches. But the Pacific Ocean will always be home to me. I miss it. I miss the hot sand, the coconut scented sunscreen and tanning oil, the salty sea air, the random volleyball games, the hot surfer boys. I miss it all. Its my favorite place where you can watch the sunset while looking out over the water. Its amazing! Sure, it gets hot, but really? When you're there at the beach looking at the water, taking it all in, it doesn't really matter how hot it is. I've always loved the water. It has a calming effect over me like lavender oil in a steamy bath. I wish I could just be a beach bum for the rest of my life. I'd take photos and sell them to support my needs. Kind of like what Thoreau did at Walden Pond. I really only need the simple things in life and the beach and ocean. I could get along without my phone and definitely without my alarm clock. Just

Slowly but surely

The weight loss has slowed just a little. I've only lost roughly 3 pounds this week. But I am determined to lose at least 80 pounds by my birthday. It's a tall order that's for sure. I have about 34 days to do it. I have to lose 2.4 pounds a day to surpass my goal by a little over than a pound. I suppose I'll have to be more diligent on my diet and exercising. I won't be disappointed if I come close though. The whole point of me going on any sort of exercise/diet plan is to get healthy and to get ready for Hawaii. I refuse to fly on a plane at my current weight. Mostly because I don't want to be embarrassed if I have to get a seat belt extender. I don't want to. I refuse to be one of those people that have to get special accommodations because of my weight just to fly. I think that I've come a long way from how I ate and exercised before. I pretty much look forward to my walks every day and I don't crave soda anymore. I actually had about 4 ounces of
