The Treadmill

Okay, so I have really really decided to "lose the weight." I still can't believe I thought I was fat at 120 lbs three years ago........now I AM fat at 157.5. AAAHHHHH, and I'm 5'4''. I don't want to get too into it as to lose to magic of the hardworking process, I just want to say I went to the gym twice now and walked on the treadmill for thirty minutes each day. I was going to go today for round 3....for real, but I can hardly move my legs right now!!! My glutes are EXTREMELY sore, even just walking around my apartment is a task for them. I will surely rest today.....and I mean rest by doing housework and then going to work 2:30-11:30. When this "good sore" fades, i will surely be back! I will be eating a good healthy lunch in a bit :)

Wedding Update: Lori Schaneville is coming to TN to be our photographer!!!!!! Yay!!!!!

Back to work and refreshed....

I've been back to work about a week and a half now. It was a bummer at first, but i'm back in the swing. Jer and I had a really fun week off together. We went up to Jenny's for Friday-Sunday. (in Lake City) It was cool because I finally got to see the treehouse that Chris has been working on and it was AMAZING. I don't even know if Carson (7 years old) realizes yet how great his parents are!! What a special special treehouse. Every kid wants a treehouse....and it's like Chris and Jenny are actually making one!!! We slept in their living room with the windows open at night and it was a lovely cool air coming in....with hardly any noise at all! I could hear "air"..but then Jenny and Chris said it was the interstate....LOL....but I mean, it is traffic pushing air, right? Oh well, I liked the sounds whatever they were. Here at the apartment you can hear people walking and talking in the halls and doors and trash cans opening and closing and so forth. After our trip to Jenny's, Jer and I spent day 4 relaxing around the apartment....we did other things around town like went to a lot of restaurants like Applebees, Olive Garden, went to the pool a couple of times....went to the park and walked, went to the bookstore, i bought "Financial Planning for Dummies' so I am in the midst of reading that. We also went to the Casino with Ayla and I came out sixty dollars ahead. lol....Jer and Ayla had to pull me away. Black and White 7s....here I come next time. We went to ellenton outlet mall on one day...and it was fun driving over the skyway. We really felt like we were out and about!! The mall wasn't TOO exciting but at least we have finally discovered what it was all about. We did find an amazing wedding ring for Jeremy at Zales outlet. We didn't buy it, but the next day we went to Jared to have my engagement ring for it's six month inspection and found a similar one that we can customize.

This is the ring...but we'd make some changes. It's cool because it spins. It's sort of like a stress ring. I'm almost positive it's the one. Jer seems to really love it.


I really needed my vacation, so I am glad I took it even though we didn't venture to any far off lands. On the way up to Jenny's, Jer actually got a call that his old job at Catalina wanted him to fill in for someone for two weeks while they were on vacation. It seemed annoying, but now he's been there for a week and a half again and love its.....once the week is over we are praying that they ask him to stay. According to Jeremy, no one was on vacation and they made that up....and I guess in one of their meetings that Jer wasn't in, the boss asked the team how Jer was doing and they all said very well! AND, they reinstated his work badge and even hooked up his phone line....but for two weeks only??? We'll see!!!!


Wedding update; We booked a GORGEOUS 10 bedroom cabin in TN!!!! The wedding trip will be March 27-31st. The Wedding Day will be the 30th. It's perfect!!! I can't wait to plan. Colin and his wife Sheba said they could be there and everything!!! It's also Spring Break for Micah, Carson, and Abby...so it works PERFECT!! I think this is how God wanted it.



Well, this is it for now. Great things are ahead!!! I can't wait to see if Jer gets this job....and I am so excited for us to get married!!!!
