Since my last post...
I graduated from college, after spending a month almost dying in Bio Capstone.
Jason started student teaching and has learned that he hates high school students. He'll probably stick with elementary school. He also wants to get his masters in special education eventually. Basically, he wants the same career as my mom. Awesome!
I got a sewing machine for Christmas from my parents. Completed projects include curtains for our bedroom, a cute vest hoodie thing, a tote bag, and several headbands.
I started to teach myself how to crochet. Completed projects include a scarf for Jen and a beanie with a flower for Melinda. I'm currently making a cute, stuffed octopus.
I started the P90X workout a month ago, as well as trying to reform my eating habits. I cut out sweets for the most part. I did find a recipe for cheesecake that is only 100 calories a slice with 1 gram of sugar in the whole cheesecake, so I have deemed that an acceptable dessert. Other than that, I've been measuring out my portions. And, whoa, did I eat way more than I needed to. The higher fiber fruits, veggies, and grains that I've been eating have been filling me up with way fewer calories. It's pretty great. I lost 8 pounds in the last 4 weeks. Go me! And when I had my annual checkup a week ago, the doctor said I was really healthy. :)
