STILL Waiting!!!

UGHHH!!!! This is torture!! How long must I endure the painful wait?? (Please no comments of it "building character"....I DON'T CARE!!)

I'm just very anxious! I thought I would be there by now and I'm finding myself stuck in the land of "what if?"...By this I mean questions that cause me to worry like "What if it got lost in the mail??", "What if they are taking so long because they are going to say no??", "What if it takes many months more to get my approval??"...etc! It's all stressful! I only have so much money to stretch out to a certain point! So, my fear is that I will run out of funding and need to get a temp job to make ends meet and Dave will have to pick up my slack more...*pout!* I don't know if my paperwork is coming via normal snail mail or certified mail, UPS, etc. and my biggest worry is that it gets lost! I have tried to remind myself that I DID receive the letter stating that it would take them 5-15 days to get this done and send it back and it's only been 11 working days, so I shouldn't panic till AFTER Friday or Saturday. Just keep me in your prayers k?

Other news, I won't be going and spending time in Colorado after all! (Sooo sad Meg! I was hoping to see you!!) My mom will be back this Wednesday and I was planning on going to help her out, but without her there...I don't know!

In other news, I did start my weight loss plan and tracking on the 15th of November and I'm proud to say that even with Thanksgiving and a two pound gain (141 to 143) I have successfully lost those 2 pounds and another 1 pound to boost (for a whopping weight of 140lbs right now! My goal is to be back at 125lbs)ALSO I was excited to see that I lost a half of an inch in my hips, 1.5 inches loss in my waist! (BIG yay!) and like an inch and a half in my upper thighs!! (whoo hoo!) So there is some positivity for the day! I joined sparkpeople.com and am doing their 28-day challenge (one week down!) which has been cool, I think this week though, instead of doing their 10 minute video's once, I'm going to do the same video twice for more of a challenge! With that I typically do some sort of 30 minute (or so) cardio session 5 times a week! (This is typically either the elliptical or like Wii boxing, running, etc!! Hoping to fit amazingly in my dress and have AWESOME honeymoon pictures! :)

So what now? More of the waiting game! Sorry this post was kinda boring, it's about all that's been going on though! LOL! I will update when I hear more exciting news!!

Love you all!!

In my experience if "they," meaning anyone, says 15 days, it's usually 15 days or more. LAME! Keep your head up, you'll be on your way before you know it. :)

Bummer to no Colorado time!! I'm glad we have reconnected online at least. Praying that your paperwork arrives soon!! Don't worry about things you can't control - trust the One who has it all under control. Great Beth Moore quote: "God is never late, but he sure misses a few good opportunities to be early!!"

Do you think I'm a fool?

Its funny that certain people always thought I would be just a pee on. Well, it's nice for once to see you sweating the bullets! You see, I hate being peed on, but I also know what goes around comes around and with a little bit of hard work and some good karma, all the sudden I don't seem so weak! I love how you think you can play the emotional cards on me such as "Leaving the love of family and close friends!"...What you don't realize is that I don't care...It's not that I don't care about the love of family and close friends mind you, because I do, it's that all my family and friends are completely supportive and excited for me about this, so trying to use them against me is pointless because I already have "their blessings". I've got the love and support from the people I CARE about! It's just that you think I'm impressionable and naive, but what it has come down to is that I say anything just to shut you up! You think your...

Annual Update!

So I am the queen at updating this blog once a year! I don't mean to neglect, but it's just been so busy for me! Life certainly keeps me on my toes these days! Big events that are worth noting for the past year: -Bought a house! It's a lovely three bedroom detached house that I can call my own, hide in to get away from the world. Decorate any way I want and fill with love! I couldn't be happier here and have really settled in well! -Got a dog! He's a year old now and named Mack. Mack is a gorgeous black lab puppy with the most loving personality and the energy of 20 kids hyped up on sugar! He is the sweetest and most exhausting little guy, but he is my baby! Here is my warning for when you visit: Beware of dog, he does not hold licker well! Haha! I love that he makes me a more active person. I walk him daily and play with him when I would probably otherwise just sit on my backside and watch TV. So he's awesome all around. -I am officially a UK CITIZEN!!! Wh...

Mi Swing Es Tropical...Part 2

Okay!! Back in Boise and doing well...figured I shouldn't leave you all hanging! (all two of my fans..ha!) So where was I?...I had just found out that the Brit wasn't with these other girls...that they were just friends. So yeah, we talked for a LONG time! Till like 3:30 in the morning...He said some of the sweetest things ever...I had never had a guy be soo sweet! Thing like "How I took his heart and disappeared" and he's been looking for both since that night...Lol! It was a really good time...The man is an AMAZING kisser! I don't know if it's the accent but WOW! I melted! I suppose it could have been the romantic atmosphere...Ocean, beach, night sky and twinkle lights...But I was smitten! So, yeah...The next day I went on an adventure (all day) with my friends and all I could think of is how I would rather be at the hotel talking and hanging out with him...THEN when we got back to the hotel, I run to my room, pack really quick and then work feverishl...
