so, my awesome friend erin who is really inspiring me to get my weight on track has inspired me in yet another way to get my butt back into blogging. can it really have been 6 months since i last posted anything? yikes. 

let me try to think of all the updates. 

i still have: 

awesome husband

cute dog

lots of schoolwork

volunteering

great family

nice friends

i have recently acquired:

FANTASTIC new job!!! i really do love it. i got a job as a personal assistant for a lady here in memphis, and she is really great. i get to do all the things my ever loving ocd heart could desire: planning, scheduling, making lists, crossing things off lists, running around like a crazy person, meeting new people, feeling really extra important for no reason at all :) doesn't that sound fabulous? it is!

i am, sadly, no further along in my weight loss than i was when i posted last. i have issues. lots of them. i just can't seem to do it. maybe it's my attitude? maybe it's that i make excuses for myself? maybe it's a lot of things. all i know is, i don't want to be this girl anymore. i was telling a friend today, about how i used to be an athlete, and that sometimes i just sit back and wonder where that girl went, and could she come back, please? i don't know. i just started my gym membership back up, so hopefully that will inspire me to be eating better as well. i will keep you all posted!

maybe. in six months. :) 

oooh, another update. my little baby sister is pregnant. i still can't believe it, really! i know she is 24, but...she's the baby. right? she can't be pregnant. can she?

so crazy. 

on another awesome, fantastic note: i am flying home on tuesday to see all my sweet nieces, nephews, and assorted other family and friends. i can't wait!! they are so amazing and i am really excited about it.

well, i feel better now that i updated. hopefully i can keep up with it and write again sooner rather than later.

place where i am going to be in just a few short days::

multnomah falls, in the beautiful state of oregon :)
