Busy

(To the tune of Patsy Cline's "Crazy")

Busy....
I'm busy from saying "I'll help you".
Busy...
I'm busy from saying "You Too".
I knew I'd get in way over my head now.
So I'm busy from helping,
Busy from trying,
I'm busy from being nice.


Sorry.... just thought I'd get that out. I've been singing it in my head. :)

Have you ever just totally over-extended yourself? No? Let me tell you what it looks like.

1. 3 Mondays a month for Girl Scouts.
2. PTO Fundraising Coordinator
3. Full time Graduate Student
4. Full time Mommy
5. Church responsiblilities
6. Girl Scout Service Unit Team responsibilities

WOW! When I really think about it, I do have a lot that I'm doing. I told people I would do stuff. Now, I really am just tired. I probably should have just said I'd HELP the PTO. But... NO.... I took a position on the board. I should have just said I would HELP with the GS Team. But... NO... I took FOUR positions. Not all of those are really all that time consuming, but they are however taking some time.

I also have 8 events that I'm planning (or helping plan) for Girl Scouts this year. They are district-wide events, so they are bigger than just my girls. That's cool though. I had fun at these events last year, so I know what they are SUPPOSED to be like. :) I at least know where to START! :) That's usually the hardest part!

So....now, I'm starting to get a little nervous about getting everything ready, but.... I'll get all the paperwork done so that the events will be great.

Just needed to get a little off my chest. Now.... I'm ready for it all!

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 ...
