I haven't logged on in about a week! I have been cleaning and packing! The house is just about empty. Had a garage sale the last two days.
I start my new job July 14th so I have about two more weeks to be here. I'm getting really excited!
Today is the Shake for Jake. I had planned on being there but things came up. Pray for much success for the JOR Foundation!
Hope all is well with everyone-

Random!
It's late and I'm a little delirious! There is no telling what all I am going to throw into this one post.
I stayed up till about 3 am yesterday morning and still up now, packing and throwing away things. I guess I've been running on adrenaline but I think I'm about to crash! I can't wait until Thursday; I'm going to sleep until I wake up on my own! It's hard to me to look at these three garbage bags beside me. I am a "pack rat", I admit! I just thew away tons and tons of certificates that I received from elementary, middle and high school! Do I really need a D.A.R.E. certificate or a "Perfect Attendance" certificate ??? Believe it or not, I even threw some pictures away. I am proud! Oh, and I just threw away my Senior shirt, that was kind of hard to part with; even though I don't remember half of the sayings on it! :-)
I just cleaned out my closet, it's completely empty now (kind of makes me sad). Most of the clothes that were still hanging in there didn't fit. When I first moved here (Sept. 06) I had to buy a new pair of work pants, I found them tonight and I put them on, I should have taken a picture! I never realized that I was that big. It's amazing what 20 pounds will do!
I can't wait to move to Gonzales and get settled because Jennifer, Kayla and I are all losing weight together and it will be so much easier to be able to work out together. I have not been doing so well lately, lots going on and no time (excuses!) to walk. 25 pounds to go, I can do it!
As much as I dislike my job, I am so sad to be leaving. I have met so many great people this past year. I still do not officially have the job that I interviewed for, I should find out by Friday. If I don't get this job then I'll just have to stay here a few more weeks while applying for others.
I will miss everyone! Most of all, I will miss my family. I enjoy going over there (they are all spread across 40 acres!) and everyone hanging out together in the yard. Thankfully, it's only a two hour drive! I'm sure I'll be up here a couple times a month. I am just the type of person who does not handle good bye easily. When I was younger (and still now some) I didn't like to visit people because I didn't like to say bye. Am I crazy or what??? I do think this move will be the best for me though; better opportunities.
I hope everyone reading is having a great week.

I'm back!
I had a great time in Texas. I went because we were hoping that my cousin would have her baby boy while we were there but he isn't quite ready! She will be having a cesarean section this Friday, as he already weighs eight pounds. Pray that all goes well.
And for those of you who keep up with Casey also, she's doing well. I can't wait until we (yes I said we, our family works as a whole!) find out the sex. I'd rather call the baby Isaiah or Carli than Toot (although it is cute)! I say it's a girl but everyone else thinks boy...guess we'll find out in a couple months.
Please keep me in your prayers as I have some very important decisions to make this week. If all goes well, I will be back in Gonzales in by the end of the month! I'm very excited, I just want to make sure that I'm making the right decision. I have a job interview this week so pray that it works out.
Hope all is well with everyone. Have a great week.

all signed up...
I'm signed up for the marathon and you can start donating now!!! If you donate $50 or more be sure and give me your mailing address. We're still six months away so do not feel like you must donate now. If it's easier for you to donate $10-20 a month that would be great too.
Thank you very much. Remember, any amount helps!
BELIEVING!
