On Thursday I made a trip to Goodwill and our local religious thrift store (I will probably bring this place up often. I love thrift stores) The Mission. I am currently looking for a certian book for my husband. He is wanted to read the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher. I have not found the first book for him yet. While I was there I found 2 books I had been looking for. Patricia Cornwell is one of my favorite authors. She just released another book from her Scarpetta Series Bone Bed. This book costs around $30 at the moment and I am all for supporting our authors and the sale of books. I support the movement to get people reading more and watching less tv. However, $30 is a lot for a book, I don't pay full price for movies either. Yea for used. So when I find a pretty much brand new book for $2 I grab it. I also stumbled across a book I have had on my reading list for awhile now. I just have never pushed to find it because I have hundreds of books on my reading list. In the sale bin for .50 cents I have a great looking copy of Alice I Have Been by Melanie Benjamin. So excited to read it. Esp now that I have it in my hands. Also I found a soccer tie for Jefferson and a train tie for Gavin. So all in all I found some great stuff.
On the down side of the past 3 days, the Cadillac I have been using has quit being useful. Yesterday I was on my way to drop Gavin off at Mamama's so I could go sub at PJA. (our school) Instead of starting there was aloud boom and then smoke. Lotsa smoke. Freaked me out. Freaked out Gavin. So my mom had to speed across town, and speed back across town so I could make it to work.
On the upside. J has a job interview on Tuesday! I know don't get my hopes up to high but .... please Lord we need this to happen.
On Friday something wonderful happened as well. My bestie Becky's present arrived. It made me so happy.
Yea I freaking have Deathly Hallows earrings. I wanna wear them all the time.
On the weight loss situation. I have started following a strict schedule that P90X has in place. OMG my body hates me. I started doing this right before Christmas but due to travel and all I stopped and decided to restart my B-day week so I could keep up with it through my blogging. I will not post my before pic unless I make a huge improvement. And then maybe I will be brave enough to post it. So this is my public before pic.
I work out in these pants (i also have a brown pair) and a sports bra but I put on a shirt for you. lol I also use tennis shoes but I had already taken them off and let my hair down.
I have made my bedtime. It is 10:30. I will be in bed every night at or before 10:30.
By the way. Any ideas how to make water yummy. I am sick of plain water. I have the water flavors but I only have tried 2 flavors. Any new ones I should try?
So far 30 is treating me well.
Oh well.
