Well, I hope you've gotten your fix of smiling pics of me lol. As you can tell, I'm having a lot of fun hanging out with old friends, making new friends, and just experiencing life for the time being. I'm working a lot lately, and it can be quite exhausting and stressful, but I'm feeling grateful to have a job right now. I haven't lost any more weight, but I haven't gained either, so I'm not upset. I do still hope to lose another 15 lbs, but until life slows down and allows me a more flexible schedule again, I'll have to be content with maintaining my weight. I still workout daily and stay very active, so it's not as though I'm slacking!
In other news, my best friend Michelle is expecting her 4th child -- finally a GIRL! -- and I couldn't be happier for her!!! I'm excited to know that I'll be here when she's born in October. Our schedules have been crazy lately, and we're sad to not be able to spend a lot of time together, but I'm hoping that changes soon. Hopefully I'll have some pics of her and I to post soon.
Well, I need to get to bed, so I'll stop blabbing for now. I'll try not to make it another 3 months before posting again! :)
