I've been so busy, I haven't posted anything in a while. I got a part time job and started 2 weeks ago. It's at a cafe during the lunch shift and I love it. Everyone is super nice and it's just a great atmosphere. I work while my baby is at school, so it's all gravy.
I've been studying hard. I've have my last lab and review this coming week and then my final. My application has been sent to the University for the sonography program and from this point forward, its a waiting game. Today was the deadline, so hopefully I get the call for the interview soon and a positive decision on my acceptance. I'm hoping upon all hope I get in, but if not, I'm prepared to go back to work full time.
I finished the Stieg Larsson trilogy. My husband surprised me with the third book last weekend. Got it on Saturday, finished it up on Thursday. They're big books, but the storyline is awesome, you can't put it down until it's all unravelled.
Tonight, I'm going to a CD release. It's a great time every time I see one of Mike Montrey 's shows. There'a something in there for everyone...my 7 year old has been singing along for 2 years now. iTunes and CD Baby now have it available, but I'm scoring my copy tonight! Here's the latest review from Aquarian Weekly. Check it out!

The change is coming...
I finished the Girl Who Played with Fire. Now if I can only get my hands on the Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. This is a really good trilogy for the murder mystery/drama/book lovers. I'm taking a break to catch up on my magazines that have been piling up. With school and all, my subscription to Shape has been on hold. I just finished a edition from last summer! With my subscription, went my motivation, but now I'm gonna try and stick with a program.
Since I'm presently unemployed, there's no extra money for a gym membership. Not that when I was employed I had the time to go to one. So I've decided to read these fitness magazines and rip out any articles I think I can do. I'm not one for stability balls/weights, and I have no treadmill, but there was a good article on excercising using your own body weight. Day one and I couldn't even do a few of the exercises. My goal is to be able to do the 3 circuits of 3 different excercises five times. That's what the article reccomends. I started on Monday and I can barely do 10 reps of each exercise once. Once I can do them well, I'll up the repetition. Trying for a bikini body for this summer....but if not, as long as I'm a bit healthier and stronger, I'm ok with that, too. And once it gets a little warmer, I've got a bicycle I'm waiting to break in.
I've had several calls regarding jobs, but until this week, nothing has led to an interview. Today, I went on the first and have a second one set up for Friday. Fingers crossed, it pans out. It's a part time gig at a sandwich shop, but it's during my daughter's school hours so every penny goes to us - no before or after care needed - and best of all, it's close to home.
After testing some product's at the research lab, I got $50 yesterday. It covered the groceries for the week and it makes me feel better that I can contribute. It's been 2 months and I haven't asked my husband for my allowance just yet. If I can just get this job to cover for gas, groceries and a few optionals, I'll be happy. Wish me luck!
