I can't believe it's November already! I last posted at the beginning of September.... oops. I guess time just kind of got away from me. Life happens, time flies, and memories are made; especially when you have a baby. Speaking of my little Miss. Sunshine, she is going to be 7 months old tomorrow! Seriously guys, where did the time go?
True to what I said a couple post ago, we have been so busy entertaining people or traveling. Right now we see my in-laws at least once a month and my parents once a month. That leaves 2 weekends to run into town for our Sam's run, and another to visit with friends. It has been hectic and I have absolutely hated being so busy during our free time. The holidays are coming up and our schedule is definitely packed. It's especially hard when J and I have birthdays in December.
Lately I have been on the struggle bus when it comes to staying with my job. I love most of the people I work with, and my job is alright. I just really, really, really miss living in Fort Wayne. We haven't made any friends and it has just been so disheartening having to spend so much time traveling.
Right now we have our noses to the grindstone so that we can pay off my student loans. Right now, with our current budget, we should have the student loans paid off by March 2017. It seems like it is so far away, especially when I am so anxious to return home. I think we can trim more from our budget, but I have a pretty big grocery budget so we can make the point of eating healthy most of the time.
Speaking of eating healthy; I am down over 50 pounds from my highest of when I was pregnant! I am also out of the 200's and sitting at around 197. I am so happy to be out of the 200s, but let's be honest; there is still a lot of work to do. I am currently half way through my first Transformers dietbet, and have thankfully made it each of the 3 rounds so far. It has been close, and at times I thought there was no way I was going to make it, but I somehow did. Now we are heading into the holiday season with each round ending at the end of the month. No pressure right? :) That's okay. I need the pressure. Especially when I get home from a long day of work and the last thing I want to do is workout. I am torn between heading out to the gym for an hour or waiting until we put our little one down.
Life is busy, but it won't always be this way. I can only hope we get ourselves together soon.
