600 pts



WEll I can honestly say with Darla's 600 min a week challenge I did horrible last week. Today, however, I earned 120 points so I am starting off great this week, now if only I didn't eat all that deliciously fattening chinese food. Well my workout partner is my longtime friend Alaina who is a HUGE inspiration to me. She lost 40lbs a year ago and although she has gained some back she doesn't kick herself too hard she just tries to do better as she goes. Last week we went to the gym and then checked out the fresh food. This is one of my motivating posts to help people find someone to workout with. Honestly we have tons of fun even when we find out the other has let a stinker. :) IT just makes us laugh harder.


One day we decided to go eat at Subway but we decided to ride our bikes there to fit all our daily fun in. We felt so awesome like we were little girls and we just laughed and had smiles on our faces the whole way. I felt like the girls from the movie "Now and Then" one of my favorite movies growing up. My good friend Adrianne and I would always pretend to be one of the girls. ya ya laugh all you want, used to pretend to be a Power Ranger too. Now that is FUNNY!

Beets, Bears, Battlestar Galactica

Okay I just read Deeanna's blog about how she hasn't blogged in awhile. Well I am in the same situation(not blogging) except my schedule has become a lot more open due to the fact that I can't find a teaching job. Oh, Deeanna, I am so HAPPY For you!!! That is really a blessing!

Last week I only worked 15 hours while my husband worked about 50 hours and goes to school full-time and does homework. Well that made me feel like a complete bump on a log. Well I admit that I had a GREAT time not working but I want to help our family financially while Tyler has so much going on.

I applied for an Art teaching job here in Cedar City at the end of August. I thought that this was it....this was the reason why I didn't get the other jobs I had applied for. Well not really. My interview went......well lets just say "not how I had hoped". I didn't get the job and now all the college students are in town and snagged most of the available jobs, so now I am kind of stuck. :( At the hotel they aren't hiring anyone but they are always taking applications. Well last week when I checked there was about 60 applications! All my hopes of getting a job really just went out the window. So I know there is a reason for all this and I am not sad. But I know things will get tight with money if I don't find something soon. Hours at the hotel aren't going to be as easy to get later on this fall and basically until next may. So pray for me! Right now I am currently sneezing as much as possible just so people will 'bless' me! J/k
