Some things are free afterall.

I have been driving my car around with a spare donut tire on my car for like 6 weeks. Today Darin took my car and it's flat tire into Discount Tires. Apparently there was some corrosion or something causing the tire to leak -- they fixed it for FREE. No kidding. God is good.

Mid year resolution?

So, today is day #2 of exercising first thing in the morning. Mom & Dad got me The Biggest Loser workout DVD (upon my request) for Christmas and I haven't done much with it until now. It's actually a pretty cool workout - there are "easy" work-outs and more "difficult" work-outs. I'm starting with the "easy" one because I haven't been regularly exercising. I think I'm going to mix in some days of jogging too.

I've been an on-again, off-again exerciser the past few years. I've tried to eat better and exercise more - but, I didn't really know what to do. There are so many fad diets out there I get so confused. A friend of mine, who is a dietician, helped me understand the things I need to watch in my diet. And reading Amy's health blog is both great insight and a big motivator!

I've decided to cut pop out of my diet - only having it on special occasions. And staying away from coffee - I don't drink much of it, but, I do enjoy a Caramel Cooler a couple times a year and the occasional cup of coffee at work in the morning when I'm feeling dead. I've already cut a lot of sweets out of my diet - but, I tend to eat more junk food when I hang out with friends and family - why is eating junk so enjoyable?

Back to School?

I never thought I'd want to take another class after I graduated from NWC, but, I'm seriously thinking about taking some classes in the fall. I want to learn how to sew and MCTC offers the choice of a certificate and a degree in Apparel Technologies. I'd probably just get the certificate - but, you never know - if I feel really motivated, I might just go for the degree too!

Last night we went out to eat with the Dalida's for Joy's Birthday at the Texas Roadhouse. It was really nice and had excellent food. I will put up some more photos later tonight.
