Well, hello again. You thought I was never coming back, didn't you? Well, surprise! Here I am! It's been a whirlwind since that last time I blogged...but I realize that this is a great place for me to be inspired, even though it is me inspiring myself! I enjoyed reading back over the past year to see what I have accomplished, and although I had a really hard 6 months since I've been on here...I am still going fairly strong.
I did get over my back injury and out of my social funk, which is awesome but I ended up falling down my stairs AGAIN back in July/August? and sprained my ankle. That was delightful. Luckily, even though I had a hard time walking for a few weeks, limping made it possible to work and be social as well :).
I also had a little promotion at work and have been doing administrative duties once or twice a week with a pretty nice pay raise. I've really enjoyed it and felt that it has brought some organization to my job. It makes me wonder if I should push for management in my near future! With a new location opening up, the possibilities are endless. Maybe not endless, but there ARE possibilities.
One amazing accomplishment I have achieved is attending school. I am taking three classes; Statistics, Anthropology and Library Information Resources. Those three classes are my ticket to getting my AA in Social and Behavioral Sciences. What I will do with that degree, I do not know...but having one makes me feel a million times richer and better about myself. So far, I am doing fantastically in my classes, I have an A in two of them and a B in one....and I'm hoping I can get it up to an A by the end of the semester. We are about halfway through!
I've also been doing a small amount of crafting here and there. Right now I am working on putting fabric flowers around my mirror. I just finished another project making my mom a necklace and making myself a bracelet. I plan on doing more, as soon as I get the motivation! Other than crafting, I've been trying to vamp up my style. I have been slowly but surely getting rid of clothes I still had/have from high school ( I KNOW RIDICULOUS, but hey what can I say they aren't ripped up and they fit me.....OK but yes, out of style, anyway..) and buying new stuff.
Now, I just need to start working out. Eating healthy has made me lose about 0 pounds, so I gotta get that cardio going ASAP. My goal is to start working out as soon as my ankle is fully healed. I would love to take a yoga and a pilates class at the JC(If they offer a zumba class, I'll be joining that as well...) because they are WAY SUPER cheaper than going to a studio ($20 for 5 months rather than $100 a month) and going on jogs a couple times a week, hoping to have time to do it 3-4 times a week. Now, writing this down makes me feel like I kinda HAVE to do it...so hopefully this works :)
I know super long and boring, but hey I gotta tell someone about my awesome life;)
Until next time
