STILL WORKING ON IT

So, as you may have noticed, I changed things around again. I really liked the layout I had before but I wanted something a little more colorful and a little more me. So, I'm reintroducing the idea of "hello, sunshine".

Will everything always be positive? Nope. (see?) But I promise not to complain too much...It seems like that's all I do anymore.
I like to think I'm trying to do better, but let's be honest. The only thing I'm actually trying to do is--well, nothing. Maybe that is why my life seems so empty? I don't have goals that I'm trying to achieve, spiritually or mentally.
Insightful.

Wow, I got a little off track there, didn't I?

Oh, news! Jared updated the computer and everything seems to be working so much more smoothly now. It's really nice! This post is actually being typed on the laptop, as we speak! (no, duh, right?) So there is something to be pretty excited about!

Okay, quick recap. We got a new layout, and we like it, right? Right.

Welp, B-E-D Time!! 

WORKING ON A FACELIFT

I kind of like this new layout....what do you think?

It's pretty basic, I know, but I'm digging the simplistic element. Also, I really like that you can change how you see the blog entries. That part caught my fancy rather quickly.

So, how's about an update? It's only been about a year since I've really done any blogging and to be honest, I don't have any reason as to why I haven't..maybe because there is nothing super important going on in my life, ever? Or maybe because the lack of a functioning computer kind of hinders the ease of posting. I'm using the iPad right now and it works fine, but I don't have any pictures on it, so if I wanted to upload any, it would be a bit of a laborious process. Good thing my life is so mundane!

I guess I'll just start typing and we'll see what comes out...

I love my job! I'm still at valley wide and currently I'm working in the warehouse getting buff! Until they find someone else a little more suited for the job, but I'm liking it just fine. It's nice to get out from behind the counter, that's for sure! 

Some of us at work are participating in a weight loss challenge...it's getting off to a bit of a slow start, but we're getting there! I've been really working on losing weight (for real this time!) since September 27. So far, I've lost 13.4 pounds! I have a long way to go, but I'm pretty proud of myself for making it this far! My sister is helping a lot! We talk everyday about what we're doing and things we can do better. She's a huge inspiration to me! She's lost 52 pounds and is into a size 12. I've always dreamed of the day I could fit into a 16, I could never imagine anything smaller, but seeing her do it is making this all real for me. And she's also got clothes waiting for me for when I get small enough to fit them. Hashtag lifesaver.

Jared is doing good. Things are getting easier every day with the whole married and living together thing. I'm not perfect, but lately I have had an easier time letting things just roll off my back instead of making a big deal out of the things that come out of his mouth. It feels pretty good to be able to say that. I left him sleeping out in the living room when I came back to bed. I love that man but sometimes he's just an overgrown child. I like to leave him be in those times. But, I'll feel bad if I don't wake him up and make him come to bed with me...mostly because I'm selfish and need him right next to me when I sleep. 

Well, it's that time...tell me what you think of the new layout and what you think I could change? It's a slow and steady process, especially since I have to work from both my phone and iPad to make the changes happen. (I have a method, don't ask...)

Night!

YOU SAID IT, SISTER!

This recently came across my news feed on facebook. It's a letter written to Bruce Jenner explaining why it's downright offensive that he claims he "identifies" with women.
