I had a really fun weekend....or maybe it just seemed really fun because I had a really boring week! :)
Friday wasn't too exciting. I cooked yummy beef stroganoff in the slow cooker..
Saturday we slept in a little...and then I picked some James Patterson books that I reserved online at the library. (YAY!!) Then.... Brian and Jessica came over and the boys played tennis and then we went over to Alyson's dad's house to swim in his pool...which was very fun!
After that Jessica and I came back to my house and did my Self:Sculpt Sexy Legs Fast DVD.
Then I had to hurry and get ready for my Grandma's 70th Birthday party! It was at my parent's house... my aunts and uncles and cousins were there...even one great-aunt and uncle. We had a ton of food and I probably ate half of it! haha...ok, not really but I felt that way. My mom made fruit salad and I think I could probably eat my weight in fruit salad. (In fact there are still leftovers in my fridge right now!)
Sunday we went to church at Maranatha and then to my mom's house for our typically sunday lunch. After that we stopped by Brian & Jessica's for just a sec....They were painting their bedroom.
Then back home to get ready for Cracker Barrel in the morning!

AAAAAHHH!
This has been the craziest few days!!! I haven't had time to blog at all. I still have a lot of stuff to do, but I need a short break.
The last time I posted was Wednesday and we were in the Outer Banks.
On Thursday we went over to the pool and enjoyed the sunshine. I was just getting hot and wanting to get in the pool when I found out that they were closing the pool for 3 hours! Evidently someone puked in the deep end and they had to skim it out, add chemicals, and let all the water cycle through the filters before letting anyone get back in.
So we just stayed and laid out. I got in the baby pool to cool off.
Jesse and I left the OBX at around 2 pm. He drove the whole way back and I finished off my James Patterson book, "The Beach House." Wow, that one is my favorite so far. I read it in less than 24 hours.
On Thursday night Mike and Alyson came to Winston and stayed with us. We went to dinner at Qdoba's. I had 3 chicken tacos that were very good!
On Friday the boys loaded up the truck and I cleaned...booo. It sucked. I did a good job so we better not be charged for anything on our deposit.
When we started to drive back a HUGE MONSTER storm blew in and we had to drive in it. I just got out of my car for 3 seconds to turn in our apartment keys and I was soaked. Jesse had to take out some trash and he was DRENCHED!
It was a scary drive. It was storming like crazy in Winston and then it rained from Princeton to home. Kitsy and I made it though!
Friday night we spent the night at my parents with the truck parked outside. Then on Saturday morning we unloaded the truck in our new place!! Jesse's mom and John, her husband, Brian, and Jeremy helped us. I started unpacking...and I'm still working on it.
On Sunday I was excited because we finally got our washer and dryer hooked up and I really needed to do laundry. So I started to wash a load and I walked upstairs to get more clothes. I took a little longer than normal because I got distracted by something...and when I walked down the stairs I heard the water still running. I thought, "That's odd." So I went to the kitchen where our laundry closet is and there was about 3 inches of water all over the floor!! I screamed for Jesse and turned the water off.
We started towelling it all up and I drove over to Mike's house to get his wet-vac. Then we got it all sucked up.
We decided to give Jesse's mom our old set of washer and dryer and see if her husband, John, who is a plumber, can fix it.....and we went to Best Buy and bought a new set.m Unfortunately it won't be delivered until next Wednesday.
I took my laundry over to my Mom's house...and during my 4th load the electricity went out. After that, the dryer wouldn't come back on!! Somehow I managed to break a washer and a dryer in the same day!!
Today I got up and ran around a nearby neighborhood. Since then I've been working on the house....and playing with my new cell phone. Jesse and I got new silver LG Shines. I've been shopping for a case for it! :) I really like my new phone. My old one was over 2.5 years old and almost embarrassing...hahaha!
ok... I guess I need to get back to work now.

back 2 work
Today I made it to Cracker Barrel and I had a good day. I didn't have too crappy of a section...but I had to do portions. Yuk!
After work Jesse and I went to the pool again....It was so nice that I fell asleep out there! The weather was beautiful today!
After that I ran on the treadmill..you know, the same ol' crap.
For dinner we had taco salad...and then I watched So I Think You Can Dance. I'm a huge fan of Joshua. He's really good.

sick day!
Hahahaha! I felt terrible this morning when I woke up. It must have been from my birth control pills..they used to make me feel sick in the morning a lot. Since I switched to low dose I only feel sick every once in awhile. But..this morning was one of those times.
I tried to get ready for work and I even put a little makeup on. Then I got a sick feeling in my belly and I had to go to the bathroom, if you catch my drift. Then I got REALLY nasty feeling and I dry heaved over the toilet. Then I threw up something that looked like raw egg whites. I thought it was over...and then, I threw up something that looked like a raw egg yolk!! It was disgusting, but I had to share. I don't know what in the world it could have been because I ate Pop Secret 100 Calorie Kettlecorn last night. I just can't figure out where that yellow color came from....maybe the peach I ate, I dunno.
So.. I felt that it was a good excuse to call into work! I didn't go to Cracker Barrel and I'm glad that I had another whole day to mess around. But..mark my words, I'll get a crappy section tomorrow because of it... probably in the smoking section. I was supposed to work only 11 to 2:30 today...and thats what I'm scheduled for tomorrow too. I'm so glad that I'm almost done with that place.
After I started to feel better I got ready and Jesse and I went to the Bank, Kmart, and we dropped off a bunch of old clothes at the Goodwill. After that we came home and had ham sandwiches and then went to the pool! I love my bikini so much that I wore it again!
After the pool I did my Self; Scupt Sexy Legs Fast DVD. Its crazy how much easier it is now than the first couple of times I did it. I'm sure my legs will still be sore tomorrow though! Jesse did part of it with me the other day...and his hamstrings were so sore!! hahaha.
We balanced our bathroom scale today...by that I mean we put Jesse's weights on them to see how accurately they were weighing. We found out that they were actually a little heavy. So I fixed it...and when I weighed myself I was quite pleasantly surprised! I weigh less now than I can ever remember... It was kinda funny cause I remember feeling skinny when Jesse and I got married. We watched our wedding video today and my face looked a little chunky! I always look fatter in pictures and videos, but I was heavier then than now for sure. I think I was sround 122 lbs on the wedding day.
Anyway... we ate dinner and then I packed a lot of bathroom stuff and I packed up almost all of my closet.
I'm getting SO excited about going to the Outer Banks! We will be leaving on Sunday!! Here are some photos of where we are going... The decorations are a little outdated, but... hey, the parents are paying!





I saved the best for last! YAY! I can't wait!

Beep Beep Bikinis Back!!
So!! Today I went to Ross (didn't see anything there) then to Kohl's. At Kohl's I bought a shirt that was on clearance, a pair of khaki shorts, and a striped bikini!
This time when I brought it home Jesse really liked it! YAY! I actually wore it to the pool today too! Its cute... its got horizontal pink, orange, yellow, green, and white stripes.

I got the bottoms that the blonde is wearing...and the top that the brunette is wearing.
After Kohl's I stopped at Walmart and got a few things. When I got home I made myself a delicious honey ham sandwich and then Jesse and I went to the pool.
After the pool I ran on the treadmill while I watched Judge Greg Mathis and Family Feud. After that I cooked seared salmon with a balsamic reduction sauce...which is SO good and really healthy! I got the recipe from www.allrecipes.com. We also had green beans and california cole slaw, also from that site. It was a yummy dinner. Here's my calorie info for the day

I can't believe I haven't blogged for 2 days!!
I'm slacking! I haven't even been busy. oh well, I know you all aren't dying to hear from me or anything.
On Wednesday and Thursday I went to Cracker Barrel...and we were actually kinda busy. I'm not sure why but it might be because the weather cooled down a touch and because Wednesday was the first day that school was out. So anyway... I was glad we were busy because the time went by quickly.
On Wednesday night Jesse and I watched Juno. I loved it and laughed my butt off.
Nothing else of any interest has happened....
Today Brian visited us... He and Jesse went to play basketball and tennis while I ran on the treadmill. I ran 5.2 miles. I had got sick of running but now I'm getting into it again. I have been running at 7 mph or higher and I've been running further.
After Brian left Jesse and I went to the pool for a bit..and then we went to Cracker Barrel and had an early dinner.
I needed a "free day" A free day is what Jesse and I call it when we are dieting and for one day we can eat whatever we want. Typically I don't have any problem pigging out....but today I had to tell myself over and over that it was OK to eat what I wanted...just for one meal. I still had a really hard time letting go. We had a "gold card" from Cracker Barrel. (a "gold card" gets you 2 free drinks, 2 free meals, and 2 free desserts...so of course, to eat all that...you HAVE to pig out)
I ordered a bowl of chicken tortilla soup for a starter....a grilled chicken fiesta salad with extra salsa and no salsa-ranch (the buttermilk ranch at CB has 29 grams of fat in 2 tbsp!!)....a slice of strawberry icebox pie....and I washed it all down with a real Coke!! Ironically..now I'm wishing I would have ordered a Diet! haha!
Before CB all I had to eat was a large peach and a bowl (.75 cup) of Strawberry Yogurt Burst Cheerios in (1/2 C.) 1% milk..... After CB I haven't had anything to eat.
In my best estimation, using www.my-calorie-counter.com, I ate between 1700 and 1900 calories today.... Not too bad really. I usually try to eat between 1200 and 1500 calories a day. Its just crazy that all but 256 of my calories came from one meal! That just goes to show you how unhealthy eating out really is!! Scary... cause all I had was soup and salad with no dressing! (well...and a dessert and a coke..hahaha) But... there are SO many people who eat like that all the time and think they are doing ok.
ok ok ok... I know I'm driving you all crazy with all this calorie talk...but it is what occupies my brain about 75% of the time. I have a sickness!! ha!

my long weekend... ;o)
I have been enjoying my long weekend. On Saturday I woke up early and worked out with my Self; Sculpt Sexy Legs Fast DVD. It kills me!!
Then.. Jesse and I went to the pool. It was, again, really really HOT!!
Saturday night I can't even remember what happened. Thats why I try to blog everyday..cause otherwise I can't remember. I know that I ran 5.75 miles that night on the treadmill.
Sunday was a long, kinda boring day. I made cabbage rolls in the slow cooker, which I liked a lot. I'm thinking that the next time I make it I may just make it a casserole or something.
We also went to the pool again. I did my Self DVD again...blah, blah.
The stupid NBA finals were on and I had absolutely NOTHING to do because I had finished reading my book, Honeymoon (by James Patterson) the night before. (It was really good....a little dirty and dark, but good)
but anyway..back to the basketball game. I really hate basketball...I wanted to blog, but Jesse was hogging "HIS" computer...which pissed me off. So I pouted and ended up taking a 2 hour nap from about 9:30 to 11:30pm. So If I'm not blogging as much as I used to... you know who to blame!
There were no sub jobs to be had for today... I guess because they only have 2 days left.
So.. I had a long weekend! Today I woke up and did my Jillian Michael's DVD (Level one and Level 2) Then we went to the pool. There was only one other lady there with us. It was actually quiet and relaxing. Usually there are brats screaming & splashing everywhere.
After the pool I took a shower and went shopping. I decided to try on some bikinis at Target. I was so happy trying them on!! I actually looked pretty good in a 'kini!! BUT...when I got home and showed Jesse he said it was too small and made me feel pretty crappy. :( So, I gotta take it back to Target soon.
Now... I guess I'm going to run on the treadmill a bit. I don't have anything else to do.
Tomorrow I gotta be at Cracker Barrel 9:30 to 2:30. BOOOO!

joke of a job
My job working with LD kids was a joke. I don't know why I even needed to be there...but all the better for me I guess. I couldn't even know which students I was there to help..haha. Its confidential! I only went to 2 classes. One was watching a movie and eating snacks. I poured soda and passed out potato chips and cheese puffs. The 2nd class was taking a vocab test so I just say there and did nothing.
After school Jesse and I went to the pool where I got a little sun!! I think we're gonna go swimming tomorrow morning too. Its supposed to be 97 degrees here tomorrow!!
I didn't work out today. I can't even remember the last time I didn't exercise....so I guess I was due for a day of rest.
I started packing today. I got about 5 pretty large boxes packed up. My kitchen decorations are pretty much gone..and a lot of my other decorations too. It looks all bare in here now and I don't like it.

so...hot....
Today was a sweltering 94 degrees here in Winston. It was a good day for me and Jesse to go to the pool. I didn't wear any sunscreen (except for my face where I ALWAYS wear sunscreen) and I didn't get burned at all. I've been trying to gradually work up a tan and its worked well so far. I only got a little burned that one day.
I went to Cracker Barrel today. It was actually a good day ( I say day, but it was really just around 4 hours) that was busy and went by quickly. I was in the smoking section and I made some pretty good tips. I busted out over 50 bucks.
After work...went to the pool and worked out... which is quickly becoming our usual routine. I did level 1 and level 2 of my Jillian Michael's DVD and it still kicks my butt.
Jesse grilled chicken for dinner. He makes the absolute best grilled chicken that I've ever eaten!! It was so good.
Of course I watched So You Think You Can Dance...and they picked the top 20 tonight. I'm looking forward to next week when they start the real competition.
Tomorrow I'm going to a middle school that's only a 5 minute drive (as a matter of fact, I can almost see it out my window) and I'm going to be subbing for a Learning Disabled teacher...she's not LD, but... she teaches LD students...you know what I mean! It shouldn't be too bad because shes always in another teachers classroom. Which should mean that I'll mostly stand around and do nothing.... the hardest part of my day will hopefully be finding the correct classroom!
Well...gotta go blow dry my hair.

This morning...I had to wake up and go to Cracker Barrel, which sucked today. I'm really glad I only have 3 more hours of that place until Tuesday.
I was supposed to get off work at 2 and then I have to do my sidework and silverware. Well I got a table at around 1:50...two really (I'm going to put this as nicely as possible!) obese people. One lady was in a wheelchair for (as far as I could tell) no other reason but that she was so large. They ordered an appetizer....which at Cracker Barrel doesn't usually happen. In fact, most employees at Cracker Barrel don't even know that Cracker Barrel has a "Cheese and Cracker Plate" available. Oh, but these people...they knew about it! So anyway...after their meal and about 5 refills a piece they just wanted to sit and sit. THEN...when they finally did get up... The guy pushed the woman around the retail store for about 20 minutes before they payed their bill.
In case you don't know.... your waitress can't leave until you do...and they can't clock out until you pay your bill. So anyway.. I was there until after 3 just standing around, waiting, wasting my time.
After work Jesse and I went to the pool. It was really hot and I even fell asleep out there today for few minutes, but I don't think I got very much sun. The pool water felt MUCH better today, but of course it was over 90 degrees.

After the pool I ran on the treadmill for awhile (4 miles) and watched some more How I Met Your Mother... LOVE THAT SHOW!!
Then I showered and Jesse and I made a quick run to the library and to Burger King where I got a Whopper Jr. no cheese, no mayo...my fav! and it only has 290 calories.

Right now I'm watching So You Think You Can Dance!! Ok, I think Jesse wants the computer now...

ahhhhh, sunday....
Today was a great relaxing day!
I woke up and we watched the live Maranatha broadcast online. Then I decided I wanted to go to the pool...so I did for over and hour. I've been reading James Patterson's book Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas. I started it yesterday and I'm almost done! I guess that means its good!
I felt like I might be getting too much sun, so I went inside.
Then I did two of my Jillian Michael's workouts. There are 3 workouts on that DVD and they are 20 minutes each. You start with Level one and then progress to Level three. You are supposed to do one a day. Yesterday and today I did both levels one and two. It kicks my butt!!
After that I watched 2 episodes of How I Met Your Mother on DVD. Since then I've been doing laundry and cleaning up the house a bit. I'm getting ready to cook dinner...Jesse and I are having Oven-Fried Chicken Thighs with baked beans and sauteed onions & mushrooms! He's cutting the onions and cleaning the mushrooms as I type.
I'm still trying to find a job for tomorrow with no luck!!
