A Slight Update on the Last Week

So working in a preschool environment lets me have days off like today…Veteran’s Day. And today on TV I saw so many specials on soldiers coming home. But what is ironic, is that I’m reading the book “The Lucky One” by Nicholas Sparks, which is about a marine that went to Iraq three times and there’s a love story of course. But that’s not the ironic part…even though I know this may not necessarily be a true story, the story about his time in Iraq written by Sparks is quite vivid…and I can maybe slightly imagine the environment and stress over there. Granted I don’t know if what I’m imagining is what it’s like, which is why I say “maybe slightly”. So I salute to you veterans and current armed forces. Thank you! You are some of the bravest people I know.

So Obama is our new president elect. Wow…can you say progress. YAY America!!! I really think it’s amazing that we’ve come so far. I’m not gonna lie. I really thought he was going to take it. All the numbers were pointing to him before the actual election.

So I had a mis-hap and fell of the horse for a week or so but I’m getting back on. I’m going to the gym everyday to train and I’m also eating better. And since I had the whole day off today..it was definitely hard not to munch today, but I found ways to keep myself occupied. I started counting my points again and writing it down. Sometimes as much as I count I somehow seem to forget the bad things I ate that day!!! Oops!

Last weekend my broski came to visit the big city and I think he really loved it. He liked having so many options and that there was just so much to do…beside the fact that he got to see me!!! And this weekend I have a couple friends coming to visit and I’m just SO excited to hang out with them. I haven’t seen them since the day after Nationals in May. Therefore I can’t wait to spend time with them and possible cause trouble!!!
