Update

Right now I'm a bit stressed out. I need to find a freakin' job! I'm on unemployment because I was laid off in June, but I'd much rather be working. I have one potential job opportunity that I got good news about today, but who knows? If all else fails, I have been setting up a back up plan.. I make jewelry-- bracelets, necklaces, etc and I might open an etsy shop. I might open one regardless because it really helps me de-stress myself.

I have actually been going to the gym again! My wonderful boyfriend, Todd, and I go to the gym pretty often. We need to go MORE often but since I'm in insomniac he ends up staying up with me and then we wake up at about noon.. horrible! The good news is I get to reconnect with Liz because she's a trainer at our gym. We could go to the Bally's near us, but we prefer the one on Hamilton. I'm a cardio freak. I am on MY favorite precor for at least 40 minutes every time I go in and then get on a bike for about 20-30 minutes. I've already found that my heart rate is getting healthier as well as my breathing. Soon I'll be able to add more to my workout and get myself back in decent shape.

Today my achilles was bugging me and my stomach is not doing so hot so we skipped the gym. That means we'll go Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Maybe we'll give ourselves Monday off and then workout through Friday...

Friday we leave for LAKE TAHOE! I am so excited. I cannot begin to express how anxious and excited I am to go to the snow with my parents and Todd. We all went last year BEFORE Todd and I were officially dating and we all had such a blast. I'm happy that I finally have my dream boy ;) and that we can go on vacation with my parents and have such a great time. I have daydreamed about Tahoe for MONTHS and that is no lie. I was worried I wouldn't be able to go, but I will be leaving Friday morning and coming back Sunday night.

Today I got a great surprise in the mail-- THANKS VIV! She sent me the coolest stuff-- this snazzy Australian hat for my parents, a cute stuffed animal/doll, a sooo cute Duck kitchen timer, and these cool magnets that I am sure will bring good luck :).

Hmm what else? My phone has given me so much grief! I got a Palm Pre on January 31st and it was all fine and dandy and then I went to update it, but it crashed. I was phone-less til Tuesday AND now I updated it correctly. Well I won't say correctly.. it froze during the update and then I took out the battery (which they say NOT to do haha) and then it installed correctly- or so I thought.. NOW my camera won't work! It's so frustrating. I also lost a lot of phone numbers, but HEY at least my phone works..

Well, my tummy hurts so Todd is making me soup to see if I start feeling better. I had big plans for tonight, but looks like I'm gonna have to stay in :(.. Todd is off to the Sharks game tonight with his brother-- They better not be bad luck... I'm off to eat some soup..
