My legs are heavy. and sore.


SO I bought the Jillian michaels SHRED video, and THAT word is EXACTLY what it is. OUCH!
I'm sore already> its only 20 min long so my plan is to do that ether 2 times a day, or that once and 30 min of cardio etc. :) I'm excited to watch my body take shape!!

I was watching the Tyra Show and there was a personal trainer on there talking about how we aren't suppose to compare ourselves to others, but to the best us we can be. I should want my body to be in the BEST shape and be the best most fit me I can be. This means eating healthy and working my body as hard as I can.
At the moment I'm resting watching The King of Queens.
I ate lunch with Victoria today. We had fun. :)
My little brothers Bday is tomorrow :)

I'm Getting WAY old.!!!
Not much going on this week. I've Been working this week. Thats GOOD!

New Ideas



















This is my new inspiration for our Living room, I love LOVE this couch! And I want it very badly, However chaz will prob not go for this but I do love the pillows and would love to incorporate this style into our living room. I also want to do a collage of plates, frames, art, photos, and some stuff like that above our piong chairs.

Another thing is our SUV situation :) I'm thinking about getting a pathfinder! I LOVE them and they have 3rd row seats.
I've Been working a lot lately! Which has been great.
School is still school.

We've had some mishaps with psycho parents and the kids, but hoping to get it resolved soon.
So be praying.

Frog Skin...and Baby Names.

SO,

I got to sub on monday, It was awesome, I LOVE my job (when I get to go to work). We benchmarked all day, I had 4th grade.

This week has been CRAZY! So much Homework and stuff to do! Chaz Especially. School is REALLY getting to us. I'm Ready for it to be over, and I have two years left. Boo. Anyways.

So I'm still on my treck to lose weight. So far I have been eating healthy, and working out most every day>I didn't today because I gave blood, but that's another story.

Today in lab I skinned a frog! EWWW!!

That is my Lab Partner Victoria with the dreaded frog clipping his skin off . EWW.
we have to actually cut him open next week. Then Cut is brain out.

Needless to say it was gross.

Me And Chaz gave blood today. I gave in 6 min 45 Seconds. Which is half my time. i usually average about 12. This is because i have been working out and that makes you give faster. But it wasn't that great because I was way sick after, I didn't throw up but I almost did.

Chaz and I have been thinking about babies a lot lately. We have a boy and girl names picked out. For a girl we have Iley RayAnn, or Iley Elizabeth, We can't decide. And for a boy, Jack Arlyn. After both of our grandpa's. We both LOVE jack, its such a rugged name and my papaw was Jack and Arlyn is after papa.
We were eating at Daniel Boones for dinner, and there was these ADORABLE little kids and chaz and I were cooing and drooling and talking about having a baby. But We know now isn't the right time. But we want one. :)
But that's it for now..
Peace out for now.

Teach me your way O'Lord, and I will walk in your truth, give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name. Psalm 86.11

I hate this supid blog thing..right now

So, I have been trying to post for a while now, something is wrong with my blogger thing. It won't let me post.
grrr.

Anyways, Chaz is Deff my favorite Valentine! :) the plan was Sat after he got off work, we were going to go to the zoo, :) I LOVE the zoo. Then were were going to go out to eat and then go to the drive in.
We didn't do any of that.
Our Dates NEVER go as planned. NEVER! I can remember one day, and that was our First date lol.
Chaz came home from work sat. "sick" so we slept till like 5! :) ha ha, then we got up to go out to eat, and got a recommendation to go to Currents, a French American place. We got there, opened the menus, and it was 45 bucks per person. So needless to say we left that place and went for some yummy burgers :) ha ha. Then we went and saw The Book of Eli. It was an awesome movie, very interesting.
Nevertheless, the date was AWESOME because I got to spend time with my husband all weekend.
I'm still on the road to weight loss. I'm down some but still not below 170 so I'm working on it.

Besides that things are Wonderful.
I worked yesterday!
:) Praise the Lord.

&& the earth is new again










I saw someone post on their facebook how they wished it was summer,
how the cold is to much for them.
I Disagree.
There is something so magical and beautiful about snow.
Its Euphoric, exhilarating, refreshing.
For this moment, the dead winter earth has a blanket of shimmery white powder, life.
Its almost as if the earth is alive and new again.
I was walking to class and I stretched out my hands and face and let the tiny flakes of hope land on my cheeks and eyelashes.
Its almost emotional.
Snow take's my breath away.
---------------------------------------------------------------
I love winter, It's such a magical time of year. (prob because one of my favorite things in the whole world is snuggling up against my husband and drinking hot cocoa. It feels like Home and Home is my favorite place in the world.
It's snowing here.
Not a whole lot but it is nonetheless.
I wish we had a fireplace to snuggle up against.
Brandon (chappy) Gray was talking about how the snow brought out the kid in everyone. And he's right. I just stand and stare out the window until the glass is all fogged up. I could watch it forever.

Shame Shame and "TT"

So Despite my unfortunate UnHealthy Kick I'm Happy to say my food is back on track. I skipped workouts Sat. and Sun. (because I was in winnsboro, and the weather was HORRID) and Yesterday I was wayy busy and super tired, so I shamed myself yet again, I did eat healthy however. I ate healthy again today, and also worked out for 30 min. (not quite and hour and a half like last week, but its a good start to this one) I'm going to go 2 times tomorrow (to make up for my unfortunate laziness) and then be strong all weekend, Since we are staying in tyler.
Friday we are babysitting at the Church during the Vday Banquet. It was 15 dollars per person, and we really wernt that interested so instead we are going to work and make money for Our vday date. Chaz is suppose to be planning something (but he always waits last min.) Maybe he will come up with something creative. I've been bugging him about it all week so the pressure is on. I have something planned as well, but its a secret, and we may have to wait till the weather is better.
In more recient news, My friend Erin (who was in my wedding) is getting married this summer and I've been dubbed to help her plan. I'm WaY good at low budget wedding planning and I LOVE it!!! I wish I could do that as a job > the vintage things is the WAY TO GO! so many Cool ideas for cheap!
WE got cable. 25 channels vs. our 6. :) and its only 2.05 per month (they were having some sort of deal) so it rocks. I also don't have to get up every time I want to change the channel and wiggle the antenna. :( that's So frustrating. :)
I had a Personal Assistant Job interview today. It went well and I got the job, I just cant decide if i want to take it yet? Its 4 days a week and I wouldn't be home till late, like after 7:30. Idk if I can be with out the love of my life that long every day. So I'm praying HIS will and hopefully subbing will pick up.
I got to see my family and Nonnie this weekend! I was SO Happy to hug my Daddy! It had been over a month since I had seen him :) And I always love catching up with my mom. :) and now that I have 4 Siblings instead of 2, It's deff the more the merrier.
And to end this update with a funnny, well, funny to me. :)
Nonnie, me and chaz were visiting this weekend and she was talking about school and asked if i just went to school on "TT" I giggled and said what? and she said you know, Tuesday Thursday. :) So she called earlier and said, so did you go to school today, and I said "Yeah nonnie! don't you know today is TT!" :) she laughed and I laughed. It deff was a goofy moment in my day.
by the way, HAppy Valentine's Day Week! :)
Teach me Your way O'Lord, and I will walk in Your Truth, Give me an Undivided Heart, that I may fear Your Name.
