A Day of Firsts...

Yesterday I was so overwhelmed with, well life that I just could not find any time to blog, I’m sure we have all had this happen! Anyways yesterday was my first day of classes, my first day of Weight Watchers Meetings and my first day back to work after a 3-day weekend so as you can see I was a bit preoccupied!

School: went well, fairly easy (first days usually are)

Weight Watchers: very cool! I learned a lot and received a lot of great reading material and when I say a lot, I mean A LOT! I set up my etools minus the app on my blackberry because I’m having some trouble with it downloading properly. After work I went shopping and found some great snacks and Weight Watchers food to kick start this whole new process! I’m super excited and am diving head first into this with all I’ve got! So my next meeting/weigh-in is in a week and my goal for this week is to lose 3 pounds. When I was checking out at the store, the clerk asked me if I had joined the program and how it was going…  Since it was my first day I didn’t want to mislead her but I told her it was AWESOME!! Too misleading??

Returning back to work: well it was atypical day and nothing really news worthy happened… went basically like this: Work, lunch, home… (That’s the short version).

When I got home I had planned to blog but I was so caught up in reading my Weight Watchers material that before I knew it, it was time for bed.

Updates To Come!!

So I’ve been sitting here in front of my computer for a while freaking out because I have not updated my blog in a few days, unfortunately I have tons of work to do today so I know there’s no way I can really update the way I want to and still get my “9-5” work done. I kept trying to forget about  my blog but I couldn’t so I’m leaving this post to let you all know that I’ll have an update later this evening! Please check back later today for a very cool update!

Happy blogging!  

From My Heart To Yours...

February is the month of love and though Valentines Day had come and gone, it doesn’t mean we can’t still take a little time to show some love!

Ever wonder why we only really celebrate love once a year when love is the one thing that brings everything full circle!

Well today I decided to list a few things that I really love about myself! We all have to learn love ourselves more, we have enough people in our lives making it hard enough so today is my day to mentally pamper myself!!

What I love about myself:

• I have a great smile (I should show it off more)
• I love to read (knowledge is everything)
• I’m helpful and kind to others (best way to be)
• I love my long hair (fluffy and soft)
• I love my adventurous spirit (whoot whoot!!)
• I’m focused, when I put my mind to it! (yeah, if I put my mind to it)

So there you have it, a few things I love about myself! Show yourself some love and list what you love about yourself!

The Journey Begins...

Thirsty Thursday has finally arrived and boy am I thirsty… for the weekend to arrive that is!! Right now I’m sipping a warm cup of tea and sitting at my computer wondering how much longer this day could possibly be…  On another note I have recently been inspired by one of my fellow bloggers, Lesley, blogger over at Yeah, Write and Ireland Ever After to start working on my book again and I'm so grateful that she was featured on FTLOB’s this week because after I visited her sites and read her posts I was very inspired by her journey in becoming a published author!

For the past 12 years or so I have made several attempts to write a book, submit queries to publishing companies and in the end I became very discouraged by lack of any interest and  instead of sticking it out and staying focused I basically did the worst thing possible, gave up! What was I thinking!? But I love to look toward the road in front of me rather than look back at my mistakes so I’m starting fresh with a new found inspiration and will stay focused no matter how many rejections I get or how many times I don’t hear anything back!

So here’s me giving myself a big “Cheers” to this new journey in my life and here’s me taking a second sip and then giving Lesley a thank you “Cheers” for inspiring me to start this journey (again)!

I’ve also updated my other blog, Live, Love, Laugh, Check it out, there’s some great stuff over there!

Back In The Blogging Saddle...

Happy Wednesday! I’m sorry I have not updated in a few days, I have been away from my computer and have not had any access but I’m back now and ready to hit the ground full speed with many new posts, stories and articles!  I know today is Cleaning Out The Closet day over at FTLOB’s but to be honest I really don’t have too much to clean out, though I’m really looking forward to reading your posts! Funny because normally I have tons of junk piled up in there but for some reason, there’s really not too much going on right now…

Last post I mentioned that I was working on my newest blog, Live, Love, Laugh which also has not been updated since last Thursday because I was away but have no fear, I’ll be heading over there next! Though there is a lot of content so head over, look around and feel free to follow if you want!  

Did I mention that I decided to join Weight Watchers? It’s pretty cool that my job offers the program and meetings during the work day so I won’t have any excuse not to attend the meeting! I’m very excited about this mainly  because I have been trying to work out on my own but I always find reasons not to or I sneak little snacks during the day which totally ruin my diet so watch out ladies, there’s a new me coming soon!  I’ve had a great past week which I’ll tell you all about soon!
