Updates...for all things Leslie!

I know I haven't really been great at keeping up with things, but.... I just updated my other blog--Poetry by Leslie Jackson. Check it out!

Also....Weight Watchers update. Ok...so weight update! For the past 3 weeks, I have stayed at 370. So this week, I was a little busy and didn't really keep up with what I was eating (but kept up with points, if that makes sense) and I gained 8 lbs. I'm back at 378. However, I knew I was going to gain weight, so that was NOT a surprise. I just have to do better THIS week! :)

School....I am completely finished (waiting on final grade) in my EDUC class at UNCC. This week is my FINAL WEEK until August! Can you feel the excitement in the air? :) UNFORTUNATELY.... between now and Wednesday, I have two books to read. I also have to check out the other books that we read since the mid-term to refresh on characters! I have that final Wednesday night! In my other online class, I have a final exam, but I have the questions already (the teacher posted them already) and I think I'll do fine on it! :) BUT... for that same class, I have 7 2-page papers to write. (YES I procrastinated! YES it's all my fault! NO...I don't know what I'm going to write about yet---that's probably why I haven't written them yet!)

Chasity...Last Thursday, I went to Lazy 5 Ranch with Chasity's class at school. It was fun. Friday and Saturday, she had dance recitals. It was WONDERFUL! She was so cute! I'll do pics soon.... hopefully! Friday, my brother and his wife and all 5 of their kids came to see her. She was surprised. Yesterday, Tony's sister, Debbie, came in from WV to see her dance. She had to leave today to get back to work though. :( (Deb if you are reading this, WE LOVE YOU! Thanks for coming down!) She only has a couple weeks left of school!

Chasity's teacher...She is pregnant. The baby is due May 18th! The class is planning a surprise baby shower (basically just a party) for her on Friday....since it will be her last day. (Who cares if we disrupt the learning environment for a little while!? lol) I still have to talk to the teacher assistant in the class to make sure everything is still on for Friday! (I just ordered 24 cupcakes.... it better still be on!!)

I think that is all that I have for now.... wasn't that enough? lol Hopefully I can keep up with things better next semester! (I only have ONE class.... it shouldn't be too hard!)





Until next time........

Weight Update!!

Last week, I didn't weigh myself because I was sick! Plus, I didn't really eat anything much at all last week. I did, however, register for Weight Watchers online. So I did spend time reading up and learning about the program. Today, I got on the scale. Two weeks ago, I weighed 402. Today, I weigh 390! In two weeks, I have lost another 12 lbs. That makes a total of 26 lbs. so far! I'm excited! Yeah, if you look at the previous post about my weight, it says that I started at 412. Yeah... I looked at the paper wrong. I started at 416. I lost 4 lbs the first week. I lost 4 lbs the second week. I lost 6 lbs the third week. Then I didn't weigh in last week. I weighed in today at 12 lbs down! I can tell it mostly in my pants. I HATE for my pants to be baggy, so I buy them to fit! Yesterday, I wore my black dress pants to church and I had to keep pulling them up. I'm going shopping next Sunday with my mom! I'm so happy! Next Sunday is my bday! So.....

Still Learning

Ok...so I'm always learning something new. However, recently, I have seriously been thinking about something. I want to learn to sew. My mom has a sewing machine I can use any time I want to. Of course, if I really learn to sew, I'd want my own sewing machine! ;) Anyways, I have been checking into classes. I have only found one place in my town that does classes. They offer a 4 week class for $115. That's not bad for a class. But, I'm afraid I wouldn't learn in 4 weeks and I'd need to take the class again! lol Anyways, I'm still looking into it. I'd love to learn. I will one day. However, I've seen some REALLY cute things that I'd love to sew for Chasity to wear! :) Until next time........

NC Weather

Image
In the state of NC, we rarely get that BIG SNOW. They used to be more common.  We used to get one huge snow a year.  Now, we are lucky if we get one every 2-3 years.    However, schools are cancelled, delayed, or let out early for weather all the time here.  We haven’t heard anything today about our schools, but we shall see.    It’s all about waiting to see what happens.  Sometimes, I think that God is sitting up there showing us HIS sense of humor.  He lets the weather people tell us whatever they want to tell us.  Then HE decides to have some fun with the weather.  (That’s just my 2 cents!)   Countdown Updates: 0 days until I pick up cookies!  TODAY is the day! They are still calling for “weather,” but they are pushing back the start time to later today. My scheduled pick up time is 6pm. So, we shall see.  It should be fine. Tony is going to drive me there so I’m not having to do it alone.  Then ...
