Day by day by day by day by day.......

I only had to work three days this week (which also means I only get paid for three days this week...yikes!)

Monday I worked and then came home worked out and then vegged in front of the television.

Tuesday I worked and then I came home and Mom and I went to our Church's LOVE club (for ladies) Christmas dinner party. We exchanged ornaments and I ended up with the one I brought because it was glorious...but only to me. (It was a hand painted ornament of a Pirate on a beach with a hook for a hand and when you turn it around there is a bottle of rum and a bomb on the other side AWESOME!) The party was lots of fun. All year they do a secret sister, where they secretly pick names and they get each other presents, cards, etc. and at the Christmas party they reveal themselves. It was really to watch the surprise on each person's face. I think I'm going to participate this year.

Wednesday I was off so I had Anna and my friend Tiffani over for a Christmas movie marathon! It ended up just being lets stuff our faces and only watch two movies that are Christmas related and talk a lot! We watched Elf and White Christmas (btw, my new favorite Christmas classic). It was a lot of fun and it was great to get to hang out with the girls. (me and Anna used to have routine movie nights and haven't gotten to do that in a while so it was cool that she could make it even though her circumstances aren't the best right now).

Today I worked again. It was soooo boring because the snow made people stay in doors. when I got off I worked out. Then I met Alexandria for dinner. I am a youth leader at my church now and we are in the process of kicking off two home groups, one in GC with Josiah as the leader of the group and Dan (a fellow young adult) as the Youth Leader to help Josiah and be there as a back up, and then one in Hilliard with Alexandria as the leader and me as her backup Youth Leader person. So we met tonight to discuss some things and it was great to see her so ready to share Jesus with friends. She really has a heart to reach people and I am so excited to be working with her. I have known her since we went to LifeNet together and she was in 3rd grade, so it's wonderful to see her grow into a young women on fire for Christ!

Tomorrow I have an interview at Mount Carmel West Hospital in the Mother/Infant Unit at 11am. I am soooo excited, it's the same unit I did my leadership rotation (professional rotation) in and the new Unit director conducting the interview was one of my precepters. It takes some of the pressure off me but I still need prayer that I will say what I need to get hired...cause this is pretty much my dream job!

I have worked out for almost two full weeks now and I have lost a total of 7lbs! Yay. I'm not going to weigh myself again until the end of December. My goal is 15lbs by Jan 1st, which is definitely doable since I only have 8 more to go! I really hope I can keep this going this time. I think I finally had a breaking point of fatness. I am just sick of being unhealthy and overweight! So here goes nothing, I am doing Power 90 which is a weight loss/exersize program to be completed in 90 days. I am on day 11 woohoo!

Well that's all for now!
