NSV's! And, where has summer gone?
Jul 26, 2014
Hi everyone! I can't believe how fast the summer is going by. I start my regular job in a few weeks. As much as I like the kids at the preschool, I am so ready to get back to my other job. I am starting at a new building because I was transferred (if you remember, in May I wasn't even sure if I would have a job because some paras got cut) I also start classes again in the fall. I think I am ready. Last semester was pretty tough for me, but I managed to pull through somehow. so I will just have to really focus this semester. i think I'm ready to get rolling again though so that I will hopefully be done in 2016.
Last weekend was my third anniversary with my husband, and we took a trip to New Hampshire where he was born, and we stayed at his grandma's house. She lives on a lake in a pretty secluded area, so it was nice and relaxing. We swam in the lake, did some sight seeing, and went to the beach. One of my NSVs was that we walked about 2 miles on the beach and I didn't get too tired.
I doubt that is something that would have happened even a few months ago, I probably wouls have gotten cranky after about a mile. Here is a picture of where we stayed. The view was wonderful!
In other news, I am down 90 pounds, and just 2 pounds away from weighing under 200 pounds! That is just so hard for me to wrap around my head... I haven't weighed below 200 pounds since high school! Yesterday, I wore a dress that I bought at TJ Maxx on vacation (size XL!) and I wore it to work yesterday. Not only did I get a bunch of compliments, I didn't have any thigh chafing at all! I have always loved wearing dresses, but I alwats avoided it when it was hot outside (which it was yesterday, we are getting a heatwave here!) because of the dreaded chafing, but I didn't experience any yesterday! And I did love the way I looked in it.
I forgot to take a picture, but I will next time I wear it.
