4 day work week!

We had a pretty uneventful weekend. Friday night, Travis didn't get home until 8 or 8:30 pm, and we didn't do anything after that. Travis didn't have to work on Saturday (boo hoo) so now his paycheck is going to be really small this week. Hopefully he'll get to work more this week.

I didn't work out this weekend, but I didn't eat too much so I'm good. I'm going to work 3 days this week, and hopefully go running, depending on what the rain does. I haven't done my challenge either, but I'll get back on track today. I guess I'm going to keep track of my calories, and how long I work out. Maybe I'll even out somewhere.

We've been together 3 years this weekend! I can't believe it's been that long. We're both off on Friday, so we're going to cook out, then ride the motorcycle out to the beach and watch the Fireworks. Then Saturday night, is the Coke Zero 400 in Daytona. It'll be a nice 3 day weekend together!

Finally Friday!

I'm so very happy it's FRIDAY!

I didn't work out last night, cus it was laundry night, and it was wanting to storm on us the whole time.

Jessie and I went to Family Dollar to buy our cousin's baby shower present for tommorow night, and I got him the cutest outfit. It's blue and on the front it says:

to pee or not to pee. that is the question

you know the answer

I thought it was too funny for a baby boy.

I'm tired today. I have to go grocery shopping after work, boo hoo, and Travis has to work tommorow. But today, while I'm at work, he might go to Daytona with Adam on the motorcycles, while I'm at work. Then tommorow, he has to work, and all I get to do is sit home and be bored. I think something may be wrong with this. Maybe I'll see if I can go shopping or something. Probably not, but who knows. :(

Thursdays

It's Thursday. I didn't get to work out last night because it was storming at my house about 6 pm. I got home just before it started, and it rained for the next 2 1/2 hours. I had to wait just to clean house, then when I got done with that, it was already 8 pm. I'm going to work out this weekend. I keep saying that, but I really need to buckle down now.

We got our matchbooks today! They look so cute! I'm still trying to figure out about my Bridal Shower. I have 25 people on my guest list. It'll be so much fun!

Hump Day!

I'm glad it's Wednesday! 2 more days till the weekend!

Travis was off again yesterday. They've been really slow in his shop recently, so he didn't have to go in. That sucks cause now when he works on Saturday, it'll be just straight time. And of course, he'll be working, and I'll be home again Saturday by myself. Boring. Saturday night is my cousin's baby shower. It's coed, so me and Travis are going to go. I want her to come to my Bridal shower, and her little girl is my flower girl. I found out from my mom that no in my family is really happy right now. I think me, Jessie, Pam and Holly are the only ones that are. I think it might be because me, Jessie, and Holly are younger than the rest. Pam, her husband, Dave, and Tyler live with her dad, so she doesn't have to much to worry about. Grandma is getting better slowly. She can't be around a lot of people right now. But when she's all better, we'll go see her.

We go and see the lady for the reception room on July 12. She wants us to see it set up and we'll be able to get more done after this. My mom is going to be sending out the invitations for me and keeping up with the RSVPs.

I did go running last night, but I wasn't as healthy with my food. Opps, but I'm not going to worry about it. I'm cleaning house tonight, so I'm not sure what I'll do. I ran around the block in like 20 mins. I'm doing good with that.

I'm still waiting to hear back from the Orange Park Lions Club for my Bridal Shower. Travis wants to get a hold of them too now, to see if it would be a good place for our Rehearsal Dinner. I guess he doesn't want to have to worry about the Club House and the manager bitch remodeling at that time. I dont blame him. Everytime I try to plan something there, it NEVER HAPPENS.

I hope today goes by quick!

It's Tuesday!

It's Tuesday, but it seems all the DUMB people are out today. I'm being mean, but it seems that half of the people in the world dont use their BRAIN! God gave us all one, how about some of these damn people use them!

I worked out last night. I did really good yesterday with my food. I didn't have any candy, only 1 pudding cup. I had a salad for lunch, then I had 2 muffin sandwiches with turkey and cheese, and a cucumber. I only had about a half of a soda can, and 1 glass of tea. So I'm doing better with my eating and drinks. I didn't even have my full cup of coffee this morning.

For my daily self challenge today, it's about Happiness. To have a goal or a mission in life. My life goal is to someday own my own bakery. It's not going to happen anytime soon, by that's my goal. Also to be the best wife and MAYBE someday a good mother.

I'm going to work out again tonight.

Boo for Monday...

For the most part, we had a good weekend!

Friday night, I got the news about the clubhouse and NOT having my Bridal Shower there. Then we went out to dinner to Hurricanes with Bryan, Jennifer, and their 2 girls. We had to sit outside, and I think everyone in the dinning room got their food before us! Wonderful! Lets sit in the sun with 2 girls under the age of 4, and have to wait for 2 freakin hours!

Saturday, Travis worked ALL DAY! He went in about 7, then got home about 6 pm. I was going to make him a cake, but then I wrote down the ingredients for the completely wrong cake, and I had to go to the store 3 times. Then I remembered he wanted the Chocolate Angel Food Cake, and I completely messed that up. It didn't have the peaks when I was mixing it. So I don't know.

Sunday, was fun because we got to go to the beach! I enjoyed the water, and we laid out for a while. It was fun to have nothing else to do but lay on the beach with the one you love!

So now, since it's Monday, I have to find somewhere to have my Bridal Shower, not looking forward to that. I'm also going to hopefully work out again tonight. I'm going to start the 30 Day Self Challenge, to a fitter, healthier new me! Today is stretching, so I'll incorporate that into my weights. Hopefully the weather will let me go running tonight. I've also started drinking unsweet tea, or having less sugar in my tea. I got the 8 oz. cans of Diet Coke. So I'm trying to cut out my sweet drinks, that have lots of calories in them!
Hopefully, the week will go by quick!

It's FRIDAY!

I'm so happy it's Friday! :0)

I didn't work out, but I don't on Thursdays because it's laundry.

But I am going to work out this weekend. I got my first issue of Self in the mail yesterday. I'm still doing the Self Challenge, how many times they say to workout each week. They also sent me a Magazine for 30 Day Self Challenge. For 30 days, they give you a daily goal to accomplish. Just little things, so I'm going to start on Monday. They even have a log in the back for where you can write down when and what type of exercise you did. It's for a Fitter, firmer, fabulous in 4 weeks.

I'm going to be eating out 2 times today. Yancey is taking me and Toni out for lunch, then me and Travis are going out for Dinner. It'll be nice, we haven't gone to a sit down dinner on the weekend in a long time.

Well, my Grandma isn't doing any better. The opposite side of her face is now swelling up. She can only see out of about a half of eye. My mom had to take her to 2 doctors yesterday. One was an eye doctor, which gave her drops, and wants her to come back today. They also said she had another infection on top of this. Mom also said there's a possibility she might loose her eye sight. They said she might need to go in the hospital if it gets any worse to clear it up. She was also supposed to fly up to Wisconsin next Thursday for our Family reunion, but they wont even let her go. It's also my great-aunts birthday today. So my mom has to take my grandma to the doctor and go make sure Geraldine (Grandma's sister who's in a nursing home) happy today.

I have to talk to the lady in the office about my Bridal Shower. I guess their not letting anyone reserve any new dates for the Clubhouse. But since I already have Sep. 12 for our Rehearsal Dinner and Party, she said she might let me. I really hope so because if she doesn't, then I don't know where to have it. So lets keep our fingers crossed.

I was talking to Tracey here at work this morning, and I wanted to have the wedding, on either May 24 or June 14, both on a Saturday with a 4. But I guess it's a good thing I moved it back, because my mom had just gotten out of the hospital and my grandma had started feeling sick last weekend. So maybe things are supposed to happen for a reason!

It's Thursday!

I'm so glad it's Thursday! Tommorow is Friday! Even better!

I didn't work out last night, but I did clean house.

It's laundry night with Jessie. We're going to go to Target and pick out my Bridal Shower Invites! I'm excited about that. It's going to be July 26, just a couple of girls. I want to go out afterward and maybe have a few drinks at a bar for a mini-bachelorette party.

I think I'm going to ask the office about the treadmills in the gym because I dont like all the dogs that are big and not on leashes. Plus they have a stair thing and a weight machine.

I saw at Wal-Mart that they have 100 calorie sodas in cans, so I think I might buy them on Saturday. I buy the Coke Zero mini bottles now. My other bad drinks are my coffee, lots of cream and sugar, and my tea. I love my sweet tea at night and with Dinner. Maybe I'll start adding less sugar. I'm going to bring carrots next week for lunch, and maybe find something else to eat with my oatmeal in the mornings.

Now I'm getting sleepy, feel like I have a headache, and I'm bored.

And it's only 2:37. At least 2 more hours to go!

Hump Day!

I worked out again last night and went running! I'm so proud of myself.

Travis went running again too. He said that he's also out of shape, cus he can feel it in his legs.

I hurt more doing my own thing, then I do with the video. It's a good thing, and I'm going to try to work out again tonight.

It's Wednesday, so I'll clean too! I'm going to try and do the strenght training 3 days, and go running 3 days a week to start with.

I'm also going to hopefully make myself start eating better. Maybe add some more veggies and drink more water!

It's already June 17th

I worked out yesterday! I'm very proud of myself. Travis also went running too. I'm going to try and go running again. I liked running, and I think it was helping me, plus with the strength training, that'll help me for sure. I only have about a month a half until the beginning of August to get in shape, cus the wedding isn't until September, but we have to have our alterations done before then. I cant believe it's already June 17, but that 3 weeks from Friday is mine and Travis' 3 year anniversary, and the fourth of July, and a 3 day weekend!

I haven't really been to sick this week, being a new week for my pills. I took it with milk the last 2 nights, and I feel a little queasy in the mornings, but I eat my oatmeal and drink my coffee, and I feel better.

I talked to Mom yesterday, and she said that Grandma has the shingles in her eye. She had something done at the dentist not that long ago, and her eye is completely swelled shut, and she has blisters on her cheek and into her hairline. Mom said all she does is sleep, and hadn't done anything around her house in about 4 or 5 days. She didn't even make her bed when she was awake yesterday to eat a bite, and for Grandma not to, then something is wrong. She has medication now, and Mom is there taking care of her. She's going to be 90 next February, so please say a prayer for Grandma.

I'm going to go running tonight and work out again, and cook dinner, and that's about it!

Monday!

We had a wonderful weekend!

I got my hair trimmed on Friday night with Jessie, but I liked it better there, than I do now. It kinda looks the same.

On Saturday, me and Allie went and saw Sex and the City, and I loved the movie. It was really good, kinda long, but worth it. It was fun hanging out with Allie, we need to more often now.

DALE JR WON AT MICHIGAN ON SUNDAY!! We were so excited about him winning finally. It's been 76 races, since May 2006 since he last won. That's all he wanted to do was win again and he did!!! If the caution hadn't come out, then he wouldn't of, but it did!!! :0)

I didn't go running this weekend like I wanted too. It rained yesterday. But I am going to work out tonight when I get home! I want to look better than I do for Travis and for me! Plus I have under 3 months now till the wedding, so I need to no matter what. I have no reason why I can't. Wish me luck!
I hope everyone has a wonderful week!!!

Friday the 13th!

I'm so happy it's Friday!

We have 3 months today till we get married and go on our honeymoon. I can't wait to marry Travis, I love him with my whole heart and I cant wait to spend the rest of my life with him!

This week seemed long for some reason. There's never a dull moment at work. I didn't work out yesterday, but I dont usually work out on Thursdays, because we do laundry, and do get home till after 7:30 pm.

Travis said I can get my hair cut today! I haven't had it cut since the beginning of January. I'm just going to have them trim the bottom, get rid of the split ends and such, then re-define my layers. I love layers in my hair, it has some kind of style! So I'm excited about that.

Tommorow me and Allie are going to see Sex and the City and I can't wait to see her and the movie. It's been way too long.

On Sunday, we might take the motorcycle to the beach, which will be fun. Travis has been modifying it and now it looks and sounds really cool!
So hopefully, it will be a good weekend!

Finally Thursday!

I'm so glad it's Thursday! I'm tired today, maybe cus I didn't get my coffee yet. When I got to work this morning, I poured water all over the floor, twice, then the breaker went out, so the time clock messed up, and the coffee-maker got turned off too. Then as I trying to hurry up and make a new pot for me to have some, coffee grains were all in it. Then I spilled it all over place trying to put my cup underneath where it comes out. Not a good way to start my morning. So now I'm tired, and bored, so I'm going to need my coffee.

I did work out last night! I'm so proud! First day this week, not very good. But I'm going to go running this weekend.

Me and Allie are going to go see Sex and the City on Saturday. I'm so exited, I dont remember the last time we saw each other. We're going early, and Travis doesn't have to see it cus he'll be at work! He's not much of a movie person.

I'll be so happy when September comes! I have figured out that after we're married, and my driver license and social security card says JENNIFER THOMPSON!! then I'm finding a new job. I bet if everyone here knew what they know about this place now, then NONE of us would work here. I wouldn't be here. I dont get how certain people can walk around and do whatever they freakin please and leave whenever they want to and not get in trouble. There are so many wrong things within this company. I'll be happy that whenever I have to potty then I can get up and go or if I want a drink I can get one, without having to call someone up here. IT SUCKS!! It's not a bad job or anything, I just wish I could do more, feel important. I have 5 years office experience and the best they want me to do here is answer the phone. At least when I was a receptionist else where, I could do the personal things I had to.

This is a long one, but I'm kinda venting right now.

Hopefully the rest of the day is going to be better!

Hump Day!

It's finally Wednesday! Yeah! For some reason it feels like it should be Thursday, probably since I cleaned last night, but I'm cooking dinner tonight.

I didn't work out again last night. The damn thunderstorm killed my mood for working out. So I'm going to tonight. No reason I can't. I'm going to try and go jogging this weekend. I have no reason why I can't, since we're home most weekends anyway. I need some kind of motivation or maybe if I saw results sooner rather than later, that would help too!

We have 92 days left until the wedding. I can't wait. It's going to be so cool! Then we get to go on our honeymoon, and it'll only me and Travis for a whole week by ourselves! Which means I have 92 days left to try and get in shape and tone!

Anyone have any motivators I could use?

Tuesday...

I didn't work out last night. But I'm going to tonight.

Yesterday was kinda a bad afternoon at work, I let the stress of stupid things get to me. So needless to say, I was just ready to go home and do nothing! Which I did, but I did water my flowers and cook dinner for me and Travis.

Tonight I'm cleaning, and going to work out.

I only have about 3 months till the wedding, and I have lost some weight, but I still have some toning to do to get rid of the flabbiness.

So wish me luck!

Monday- June 9th!

I'm going to start blogging!

I'm going to use this to help me get in shape.

I'll also be posting some wedding updates on here too.

I think it'll help me. I'm also going to try and do the 2008 SELF Challenge on their website.

I'll follow their exercise routines and such.

I have a new video on demand I'm doing too. It's for brides who want to get in shape, ME! I'm no where near keeping up with that lady, so this will be good too.

Wish me luck!

My flowerbed is all done, and the bench looks so good! I have all new flowers and it's makes the front of our apartment look so welcoming now! I worked my butt off to get it looking this good!

Travis' motorcycle looks awesome now. He really likes the modifications he's done to it!

Well wish me luck with my exercising this week!
