*Sigh*

One of my very best friends is getting married tomorrow. It just makes me feel all warm inside because so many memories just flood into my mind. I remember her being a short/shy blonde haired girl who could barely say two words to me...and now...YEARS later..we're still friends. Ok, so I felt this way when Dina got married..(remember me? crying through the whole ceremony?). Thank your lucky stars that I wont be there tomorrow...boy would the floods gates break! Ohhhh I love you Teresa sooo much!!! I just hope you have to most perfect day tomorrow! You are going to be a Mrs....can you believe that? Well I want to hear every little detail about tomorrow as soon as you can! Tell Alex I love him too...and give Gabby a big hug from me! Teresa...if I was there you know I would give you the "talk". But I can't. I just want you to know that if you ever need me..that I am here for you. Ohhhhh *big big big big hugs*
Have a beautiful day tomorrow!!

I love him.

I love Dave Matthews everyone. I'm sure you know this by now. But I really do love him. The concert on Saturday kicked ass! Man it was sooooo good! I was able to experience it with Erik, Karen, Jon, and Melanie...it's been a long while since we've all seen Dave together. It was so awesome! Talk about being tired afterwards. I spent 3hrs dancing my ass off.

So God has blessed me today. As you know Erik has been looking for a job for awhile now and we've been getting behind on our car payments, which has really been stressing me out. So yesterday Erik and I were going through the Sunday paper want ads and I found an ad stating that they were needing people for a research survey and that they would pay $300 for two days. Ok, so I go onto the website to see if they are legit..and they are! My mom has actually gone to a couple of their surveys once before. So anyways, I register our names into their website and they immediately call Erik the next morning. And then I called them and they entered me into the survey as well! That's $600 for two days..woo hoo! I had intentionally wanted to have a garage sale at my house to raise some money up for my car....but now I don't have too! Yay! Thank you God!

On another good note I have officially lost 26lbs. I have been maintaining for most of the summer but then was able to get off a couple more pounds here recently. I'm hoping to be at least 35lbs lighter by my birthday...which is definitely reasonable.

Ok, well I hope y'all are all having a great Monday!

Please Exercise Gods!!!

Take this pain away!!! If you saw me now you would think to yourself.."Why is Stacy walking with a limp?" It's because I'm in pain...that's why! Ok, I've been really stepping it up a notch when it comes to my exercising. See I'm in a contest with a group of 5 girls scattered around the U.S. We all met on SparkPeople and we all came up with this great idea to have our own version of the Biggest Loser. Whoever loses ten pounds first wins a $25 gift card to your favorite place to shop. So considering I'm broke as hell I really want to win this card. Well I've been doing cardio for awhile now and I decided that it was time to add on some strength training. So I printed out the exercises that SparkPeople assigned to me and I did one each just as it told me to do so. So I'm feeling really good about all of this until the next day!! My quads and my ass are killing me! I feel like I can only walk if I have crutches...it's that bad. So it's been two days since I did this and I'm still in tremendous pain. How do people keep on doing strength exercises? I vowed today that I'll never do forward lunges or squats again!!!! "Owww, my ass"

I haven't posted in forever!

OH my God..I haven't posted in forever. What's the matter with me? You know what it was? I started a new myspace account and I became a myspace snob and forgot all about my blogger blog over here. I suck.
So then a lightening bolt hit me! (well actually it was Teresa and Manda). And they told me to put on my myspace blog that I have a blog here..and that this is where I update my life from time to time. So I did! Great idea you guys!

So life has been pretty good over here. I finished summer II last week and I found out today that I made an A in my class! And it was a well deserved A because it was toughhhh. Oh my gosh it was like taking a freakin' English class! But I got through it!

Other than that I am still on my healthy lifestyle. WOW. Yeah I know...it's been since January. I've still kept the same weight..I've been in the terrible habit of letting myself gain some..and then losing that weight the next week. Basically I have been maintaining.....but now I've been back on the ball for the past couple of weeks. Working out and staying within my calories..go me!

So we I had an awesome time and Teresa's bachelorette party last weekend. Can you say drunktify? Because that's what I was for about a whole second. And Teresa too! "There's an oh shit grip?...OHHHHHhhhh shit!" That's freakin' priceless...and I just love hanging out with you guys. And I'm going to miss you Dina terribly. How am I not going to cry on Friday?
*sigh*.

Well guys, I'm off to bed. Hope you're having a pleasurable week ;)
