School....What Was I Thinking

Paralegal Degree program.....one word.....YIKES!!!!! 

I knew when I was little I would either be a Veterinarian or a Lawyer. My brother, Jamie, was a vet tech here in Cairo and he got me a volunteer job at the vet he worked at. I loved it, because I was working with my Bubba and I got to work with animals. I did that for almost two years till I had to witness a dog being put to sleep and how much it hurt the owners. I would go broke trying to help save a pet then having to put it down. I know, I am such a softy! Well after that, I decided that being a Veterinarian was not for me. At that time, nothing was right for me. Guess you could say God had his own plans to work. 

Well let me do a Star Trek warping here....... 

After having my son, I knew schooling would take too long and I did't want to miss the important times of my growing peanut's life. So, I place everything on the back burner till he started school. 

Another Star Trek warping.......  

It is Summer of 2015 and I am struggling with the Paralegal Program. Not that it is hard, just that the advisor and one teacher are not on their A game. It's hard to do the work when the college orders the wrong book and then wants to charge you for the right one. CRAZY!!!!!!! I am praying I will get past the next three semesters and have my business together. 

That is all for now. Keep me in your prayers at night and during the day.

New Challenge

April 10th, 2017 we started a new challenge. We were placed in teams for three or four ladies and we each have to complete 15 workouts a piece. So in total, the group of three will have to complete a grand total of 45 workouts and the group of four have to complete grand total of 60 workouts, all in 21 days. I am in a group of four and I was placed with three women who bust their tails in working out. Which is a big motivation for me. It has been such a big motivation for me, that I am currently holding 24 workouts under my belt and will be adding one more this afternoon. There has been mornings that I have woke up and thought, "Maybe I should stay in the bed." But I get on up and go, then I am happy that I did. I feel so much better knowing that I am 1.) I am not letting my team members down, 2.) I am not letting myself down, and 3.) I am seeing changes within myself. Keep up the good work ladies.

Hey! We All Fall Short Sometimes

Image
On May 1st, of 2018 I decided to take my dieting, working out, running, and blogging about my journey to getting fit more seriously. Well after a week of a doing great, I fell off the wagon. I would like to send out a thank you to my allergies for making me sick and contributing to my fall. So my OCD kicks in and said, "Hey! Why don't you start back at it June 1st." No! I want those who are embarking on this journey to know, you will sometimes fall off, hit a wall, or even feel like you can't go on. But you can! As my personal trainer told me once, "If you set your mind to it, your body will follow." Here are my  measurements and my weight for May 1st My weight is 200.4 These are my measurement  May game plan was to pick back up June 1st, 2018, but things didn't go according to MY plan. That's ok though because I received a text from my personal trainer letting me know that she was jumping back into training again. We set up ou...

First off let me say how sorry that I am that it has taken me three days to post this blog about my first, hopefully not last, Spartan Sprint experience. So let me jump right in to it.
