Lazy Days

I haven't written in awhile. I've been kinda busy with my other blog but mostly I lost a little motivation over the holidays. I'm starting my new post for gearlive today so hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things this week.

John and I had a great Christmas. I got lots of new yoga stuff including a new outfit from lulu lemon! I made a really yummy dinner for us on Christmas day; a standing rib roast and my favorite mash potatoes.

Now, we are officially on a diet! I'm starting to fat flush today and my goal is to lose 10 pounds! I can do it!

We lost the cord to my camera so I can't post pictures easily....I'll get some up soon.

Job Update

Today was a good day. I finally heard from the consulting firm and I am still in the running. I have another phone call set up for tomorrow morning. If I get it I will either be traveling to NYC or New Orleans (I'm secretly hoping for NYC). I have a feeling this will work out.

I posted my first story to Gear Live and I think it was a good one. I have a few more ideas and I think this will be a lot of fun to have on the side. Click here to link to my post.

Yoga has been amazing. I'm really enjoying the studio and the instructors at Yoga Now. I've been switching between Ashtanga and Vinyasa and really feel great. My plan is to stick with it at least three times a week.

Good times....

Blogging for Real

So a few weeks ago I submitted some sample blogs to a few ads I found.  I actually heard back from one of them and they loved my stuff!  They want me to submit a few stories to their site and I will get paid (we're talking pennies people). Hey, it's something to keep me busy so I'm up for it. The website is www.gearlive.com, it's mostly a techie website but they have a lifestyle/woman's section called Girl Snark(which isn't very good at the moment).  Not sure what I'll post.. probably stuff a little less specific than what I put on this blog, but the same idea; adjusting to marriage, dating, etc.  I might even write about how much I hate Angelina Jolie... cuz I just do. 

STILL waiting to hear about the other job.  My contact called me Monday and I missed the call, playing phone tag now.

PS John is mad because I called him up at work and yelled at him for eating the last packet of oatmeal. Well!!  It was 16 degrees this morning and I needed my oatmeal!
