Sorry I've Been Gone!

Hey all! So once again it's taken me forever to update, but I've had a lot going on to tell you about. First and foremost I GOT A NEW JOB! I'll be working TV tech for the evening and late news a few days a week now! Sadly it's only around 20 hours a week but that's still better than nothing and it opens doors for moving up. I also think that now with this and my current production company job I can finally quit Applebee's (although I will miss hanging out with Chris at work). Today is my fist day in training and I'm really excited to be doing something in video again after a year and a half in radio (although I love everyone I work with at the radio, don't get me wrong).

I am also now in my new apartment and working really hard on keeping up my resolutions of making sure messes don't pile up. I did hours and hours of spring cleaning this past weekend and felt amazing about it! Today after training I'm going to finish up everything (I don't have a dishwasher at this new place so dishes are a constant battle) and relax in my nice clean place. I'm also staying on top of potty training the dogs, although they don't seem to want to use the litter box anymore, but I suppose going outside is even better for them to learn.

I'm still going to the YMCA, although sadly much less and need to step it up if I'm going to lose that 20 pounds by June. Luckily at my new apartment the Y is right down the street so I don't have to worry about driving forever to get there every night. I'm not sure what my current weight is but I will find out soon and let you know!

As far as my reading and craft goals I'm proud to say that I'm staying on top of it and I'm now in April and working on my handmade Easter basket treats and I'm also baking cakes and candies for Chris and our friend Paige (both for their birthday's). I'm on the wait list at the library for my book of the month this month, however if it takes too long I may have to skip to next month's book and come back to this one next month.

Chris and I are doing amazing and we actually are sticking with our “get out of town once a month” plan! Last month we spent a day trip at Yellow Springs ( a hippie type town not too far away). Although it wasn't very far away it felt amazing to get away for even a day! First we went to a farm called Young's Dairy where we pet animals, ate ice cream, played put put, went to the driving range, and did the batting cages. Next we drove to the state park but decided to go into town instead of getting out so we could go to the stores. We spent the evening shopping for handmade stuff, eating pizza, and enjoying each others company.

Although I still haven't found a full time job, or lost all my weight (two more months to go!) I'm very happy with my life right now and I'm looking forward to the warm weather and all of the amazing thing's summer is going to bring along with it! 

I love him

PS- I forgot to mention that I'm also putting more money down towards my debts and looking forward to a debt free and cash forward lifestyle!!
