No pictures to post today......just some exciting news to share :) I GOT A JOB!!! I went for an interview yesterday at our gym & just got a phone call this morning that they want me to come in on Monday to start training. The funny thing is, I forgot to ask them how much I'm making an hour.....I was just too excited to even care! I'll be working the counter, checking people in as they come to work-out, etc. As of right now, it's only a couple of days a week, but there's always the opportunity to pick up more hours. Plus, the best benefit, I get my gym membership for free & my dh gets a discount on his membership. I will also get discounts on personal training sessions, in the cafe, the spa & for tanning, although I haven't used the tanning there.....yet :)
I also updated our weight loss blog today with more exciting news, but I need to share it here as well :) I am now officially 36 pounds lighter! And Jim is down 34 pounds, so between the 2 of us, we've lost 70 pounds! 70!!! Wow.....that really puts a new perspective on it! Jim's trying his hardest to catch me, but I'm not going to let him ;) I posted a picture of me from a 'virtual belly flattener' that I did on the weight loss blog. Be sure to check it out over there --->
The rain did finally let up & luckily, our neighbor's pool didn't overflow afterall. It's been gorgeous out all week & supposed to continue to be that way throughout next week as well. We may get a little rain on Sunday, but nothing compared to what we had last weekend.
Bowling has been going okay. On Tuesday, I bowled a 458 series & then on Wednesday, I did much better. My games were 199, 136 & 211 for a 546 series :) I've been using my old 15 pound ball & so far, so good. Losing weight really does affect a lot of things.....for one, my knees no longer hurt after bowling & Jim said that his don't, either :)
That's all for now.....I've got a lot of stuff to do around the house plus I'm working on a layout that I will share once it's done.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Benita
