TGIF!?

Happy Friday?? not so much for me!
Today is my last day at my job! I'm pretty sad but I think I'm hiding it well! I can't believe that I will be unemployed on Monday! This is sooooooo not like me! I've always been one to have like literally 3 jobs on the go! and now I don't have 1??? I'm pretty stressed out but I have an appointment at a recruitment agency on Monday and hopefully they'll be able to find me something soon! I've also applied to many company's and I guess it's just all a waiting game from here!

I've been OP All week!! I'm very happy about it and feeling good! Last night I went for a walk because it was sooo beautiful outside... I had to meet Ash at the bank so I took a huge detour and met him there... it was only about a 40 minute walk but still better then nothin right??

Tonight I babysit Charlie (for those of you that don't know he is a baby that I used to be a nanny for) I'm hoping that when I get there he will be fed and ready to go for a walk! they're house backs out on to trails and they are sooo peaceful and so great to get in a nice walk... If he isn't fed then we may not have time to go for a walk... I will put him to bed (@ bed time) and hop on their treadmill!

Other then that there isn't to much planned for the weekend.... I guess just some relaxing and job hunting! Hope everyone's doing great!!

Have a great weekend!!

hAppy hUmP dAy!

Good morning fellow bloggers! It's Wednesday, the sun is out and I'm feelin good!! LOL Honestly the Sun does wonders for me, I'm in a much better mood! I'm excited to get out and goin! and i think it helps a bit with motivation!

So I walked to the gym like I said I was going to (Sticking to the plan!) and when I got there I did some weights... I'm at GoodLife and they have a nice little set up... they have numbered some weight machines from 1 - 8 and kind of made it like a little circuit, on each machine it tells you what muscles you're working and they have pasted a little blurb/tip on them... apparently your supposed to do only one set of 8 - 12 reps on each machine to see any results... I did 2 sets of 12 reps on each machine, which took me 30minutes! I really feel it in my muscles this morning!! It's a great little workout!
After pumpin some iron, There were no treadmills left so I hopped on the last Elliptical that was left and had a nice 20 minute workout, I could have gone for longer but I hadn't eaten anything before I left to the gym and I was starving!! so I didn't want to push it, besides I still had to walk home!!

So to sum it all up
10 minute walk to the gym and 10 minute walk home = 20 minutes + weight machines 30 minutes + a great 20 minute Elliptical workout = AN AWESOME WORKOUT!!!!

Other then all that fun stuff I don't have to much going on, Sandra (my cousin) came over last night to watch the Biggest Loser Finale which was sooooooo good!! I'm soo happy Ali won!! wooooHoooo GIRL POWER!!!!

Tonight I will either go for a walk or to the gym I'm not 100% sure yet, it all depends on how nice the weather is and how I feel!

Hope your all having a wonderful day!!!

i lOve sPriNg!!!

I loVe this weather! its sooo beautiful! The mornings are still a bit chilly but afternoons are fantastic!!

So last night when I got home from work I was going to go to the gym but it was soooo pretty outside and I didn't feel like staying indoors! So instead of going to the gym I went for a 40 minute moderate walk!! It felt soo great! and I could really feel it in my legs.

Tonight I think I will walk to the gym which is only about a 10 minute walk, do some weights when I get there, and then hop on the treadmill ( I want to try a run / walk ) and then walk back home. Wish me luck!

I started a calender yesterday! I got the idea from a few other lady bloggers.... I will give myself a sticker for each day I am OP, so tracking and staying within my points and exercising... So I earned 1 sticker so far!

I feel really motivated! but shhhhhhhhh I don't want to jinx it! LOL! so I won't talk about it!

Hope you all have a great day! I hope I didn't loose all my readers do to being MIA... : (

It's FRIDAY!!!!

WooOoOoHoOoOoo!!!! I think I love Fridays more then I love Chocolate!!
I don't have much to report things are just whining down now from this job fair! and Now it's time for me to look for a job! I'm hoping to stay in the company because I have been here for 5 years but nothing is catching my eye! I'm only here till Next Friday and then I'm unemployed! Which is a bit stressful! But I think everything will work out!
Tonight, Ash and I are going to the movies to Watch 21, tomorrow we don't have much planned hopefully it'll be a nice day and we can go for a walk somewhere! and then Sunday I have a baby Shower to go to and then I'll be studying for my exam. Blahhh!!!

I'm BaCk!!

I'm sOrry ladies I've been MIA! the job fair that I was organizing was on Monday and Tuesday so I have been working like 12 hour days!!! It was very successful! We had 57 different employers, 20 different community agencies and 4000+ job seekers come through in the 2 days!! It was awesome!! and very fun! So because we have been working so hard they gave us yesterday and today off! Yesterday I stayed in bed most of the day I was sooooo exhausted!!! and today I got up went to an appointment and now I'm trying to catch up on blogs and the boards!
I haven't been terribly bad but I haven't had the time to follow the 8 Healthy Guidelines! But I'm back on track! and ready to kick April in the ARSE!
I do have a NSV! I bought a nice linen blazer type thing from Dynamite and it was a LARGE!! not an EXTRA LARGE!! WooooOOooHoOooo!!! I also had a blouse from Jacob that I had bought last year and I thought was going to be to tight!! but it fit perfectly!!
Hope everyone is doing well!! Again I'm sorry for being MIA!
Time to catch up!!
