Where HAVE I Been?

btw, in my head, the title has been yelled by Mrs. Weasley (from Harry Potter).. lol.. it's been one of those kinds of weeks where I just can't stop laughing right now..

Seriously though, where in the world did I go?!  11 days since my last post?!?!?!?!  WOW!  I'm thinking that's a personal record, which sucks bc this isn't a good record to have.. I loved blogging at one point..  I'm sure if you've followed me for a while, you've gotten sick of my posts sometimes (I think a couple days I've posted 3 times).. But now, my posts barely come once a week.. Sadly, I miss the pictures I used to post, as stupid as it might seem.. My digital camera broke a while ago, and my dad took his back about 6 months ago.. :(

Well, I'm determined to bring back more pics to my posts (hence the pic above.. lol).. I can't believe I haven't posted in so long.. Just to be brief, here's a couple little things that have happened over the past 11 days..

** Last Friday's weigh in was 242.6 lbs (my body likes those .6 lbs, doesn't it?!), which is down 1 lb..
** I tried to weigh on Wednesday, only to find that my scale has finally bit the dust.. So I have to buy another one before I can weigh in again..
** This past 7 days have been weird.. Saturday was a free-for-all, food-wise, but I got back on track Sunday and Monday, but Tuesday started a slow free-for-all again.. My mom brought in CHOCOLATE FUDGE!!  I can't resist (yet) the smell of chocolate fudge.. or the taste.. lol

Now a big thing that happened this past week!?  I GOT THE JOB!!  Now, if you follow me on Twitter, you already know this.. If you don't follow me on Twitter, why don't you?!  lol.. In case you are interested, click on the twitter button.. :)

But back to the main subject: I got a call on the 16th from the HR manager telling me I got the job.. she asked if it was a good time to go over some stuff as I was flushing the toilet!!  lol.. don't judge, you know you answer calls on the toilet too.. but I go in on Monday to finish all the paperwork, get drug tested, and get some shots.. My first day is October 10th.. I'm so excited!  It's only part time, but it has HEALTH INSURANCE!!  I seriously am restraining myself from making appointments until Monday, when I'll remember to ask how long the waiting period is.. lol

Now, onto the healthy part of my blog... I plan to re-start the Induction on Monday.. I would start today, but I have a wedding reception to go to, and I figure one more day ain't gonna hurt me (I know, stupid, but I really don't wanna watch what I eat with the place it's at)..

Another Twitter reference for ya.. I'm enrolled in Brad Gansberg's 5kin100days program.. it starts on Monday also.. If you are interested in doing it, go to bradgansberg.com and check out the details..  I'm excited to get back into running, especially outside.. This weather is wonderful, if only the rain would go away..

Well, that's all for now.. sorry if I rambled.. Now, COMMENT AWAY!! lol
