I figured it was getting to be a little bit too long between posts and thought I should post something before Miranda starts bugging me!!! (Love ya sis!)
I don't have too much to post actually...I've kinda fallen off the "change" wagon. I haven't been doing good at all. I stopped counting points last week, and went back to my old eating habits. I'm starting up again now though...I guess I just got lazy. I'm going walking tonight and I'm getting strict again...no more crap food!
My car started making a horrible screeching noise last week (or i guess it could have been the week before). My friends husband took a look at it and said it was the Idler Tensioner Pulley (or something like that). It basically puts tension on the belt that runs the alternator and the power steering pump. The bearing in mine went out, so the pulley was off kilter and started eating up the belt. Needless to say, I stopped driving my car and prayed that I would be able to get someone to come fix it this weekend. A friend from church, Greg, came by this afternoon and had it fixed in no time!!! It only cost me $40 for the parts, but I feel bad that I couldn't give him anything for coming out to help...hopefully he'll go to lunch with everyone tomorrow after church and I can at least buy his lunch!
Softball started up this week! Well, the pre-season placement tournaments were this week, but since we turned in our registration late we're not in the tournament...so we'll start playing in 2 weeks or so.
I guess that's about all that's going on in my world right now...

long time, no blog...sorry
Well, let me start out by apologizing. My laptop recently died, and I HATE our desktop computer (its ancient and SUPER slow) so I haven't been online in a loooooooooong time, so that means no Facebooking or blogging...again, my apologies!
I do have 2 peices of AWESOME news...
First...wait for it...I'M DOWN 8 POUNDS!!! Ok, so it's not record-breaking or anything, but I couldn't be happier. It's been what, three weeks? I think that's pretty awesome considering I haven't been sticking to the "change" near like I wanted to. I do darn good...most of the time, but when I "cheat" I cheat too much! Oh well, it's whatever...I'm doing really good about watching my salt intake, and I haven't had a "real" soda since I started all of this (and only a couple of diets) mainly water and tea (and mostly unsweet tea, which everyone can attest is a HUGE deal for me!) I eat a lot more veggies now too, which is good in an of itself. I actually noticed a little bit of a difference in the way the pants I wore today fit!!
Ok, second, I had a jewelry show this weekend at a local Renissance Faire. We've had a booth at this fair for the last couple of years and this last weekend was the best weekend we've had! Our sales were pretty awesome! But that's not the best part...the owner of the Faire asked us to sign a contract to come back for every Faire they have for the next 5 years!!!! He's also building us a "shoppe" which will be constructed how WE want it done! It's going to be awesome! We'll have a building to help keep us out of the sun and the rain! I'm so super excited...I can't wait till everything is done, we should have it all ready to go by the next Faire which is in September!!! I can't wait!
I have a new neice as of May 4, 2010...Amy (David's sister) gave birth to Sophie Elizabeth Grace Miller on Tuesday. She's a cutie-pie with a head FULL of black hair! I can't wait to officially meet her in June.
My mom and sis are coming to visit next weekend and I CAN'T WAIT!!!! I miss them both to peices! Plus, of course they are bringing the most handsome little boy with them too! I can't wait to see how much Nathan has grown up since I saw him at Christmas!
Well, I guess that's really all that's going on in my corner of the world right now...I'll try not to wait so long to post again...
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!
