squiggly

Thank you everyone on the comments and the support.  I didn’t exercise yesterday due to my headache.  I feel so much better today.  I did exercise today as well.  I danced in my family room to some nice upbeat music.  I then took a fast paced walk.  I’m looking forward to winning that bracelet this week.  The walk did more for me then exercise.  It’s 40 degrees outside and normally it would be too cold for me.  However, bundled up in a sweater and heavy coat and gloves, i felt so good.  I thought about school, work, and everything else in my life.  I thought about my goals.  It cleared my mind so much.  The cool breeze felt refreshing and Oh the fresh air.  It was very pleasant. 

I’m very happy today.  Hubby might be upset because I didn’t put in any aps or even worry about it.  I will concentrate on jobs on Friday. I’ll check in with a  couple places that I already put my ap in and apply at a couple more places.  My tests are over with on Thursday and it will be easier for me on Friday and I can continue on Monday.   I studied for my pharm test today and am even feeling better for it.  The book comes with a disc and a companion website.  The disc and website have practice tests on them and they are similar to the tests at school.  It helps me to realize what i need to work on.  I did pretty well on the tests today so i’m feeling a little more confident.  Of course, I’m not done studying. I’m not done with that until i take the test on Thursday. LOL!!!

I am feeling more motivated.  How cool is that!

You would think with me quitting my job that the stress level would have eased some.  While in some aspects it has, in others it has gotten worse.  While I don’t have to worry about that job, I now have to worry about getting a job.  I have tests at school to study for.  I have to worry about the bills getting paid.  I then have weight loss to top it.  I did really bad with making healthy choices this week.  I ate stuff that I know is bad like oreo cookies.  I need to do something besides eat when I’m stressed.  There are some habits that i haven’t changed obviously.  ON the exercise front, I’ve done better.  I’m going to get that bracelet this week.  Today has been much better. I put my ap in at a local nursing home.  It’s a much smaller facility so hopefully that will be better.  I hope they call me tomorrow.  I’m keeping my fingers crossed.  I really liked the feel of the place when I walked into the facility.   I’m going to get through this all and better for it.

Ok, Steph won the bracelet yet again.  It’s okay though. I will win it next week.  I guarantee it.  I’m not working this week so i will rack the points up. 
I had weigh in this morning and gained .2 pounds. I woke up feeling like a whale.   LOL!!  I thought it was going to be worse.  Next week will be much better.  I’ll pay more attention to what I eat and up my activity even more.  I am going to lose the .2 plus at least 1 more.
