may is ending....already. i can't even believe it. it's amazing how fast time goes now...the saying is true...as you get older, time flies! holy cow!
spent the last weekend with the man....GREAT weekend. last time we will get to see each other for at least 6 months. that will be rough, but i have never, ever been more confident that we will be fine through every step of this part of our relationship! christmas time will be incredible i just know...can't wait! as this part of my journey gets easier and easier...it makes me excited for all the things that are to come.
it would seem to me that really the only part that i need to get straightened out now is my job! interview today...pretty excited for it. this job will allow me to stay at home for awhile...which i need and am happy about! keep your fingers crossed everyone. :)
considering starting a new blog...something that chronicles my workout/eating phase that i am currently wrapped up in! i am slowly but surely stocking mom and dad's garage/barn with some kick ass workout equipment. who needs a gym when you can go to your barn and kick some serious ass!!!!! will also be hoping to stock up dad's garden with a few goodies...and see how i do with my green thumb (is that right???)! recipes of healthy, wonderful, tasty choices...workouts...fitness tips...and just trying to be awesome. (russ i think this is a testament to your blog quite possibly...i want to be awesome!) i have never felt better physically...or enjoyed more how i am looking physically. i want to be bad ass :) these are great goals...and i feel a blog devoted to just that would be incredibly sweet!!! as i get settled in and get things figured out, this will probably begin. look for it in the next few weeks!
ohio weather is making me extremely happy as of late....lots and lots of sunshine with great temperatures. in heaven again :) hehe have a great one everyone!!!

there's no better time...
this title could apply to a few things going on right now...
1. TO MOVE HOME. my softball coaching career is winding down...only about 30 days more left. but the best part of that gig has already gone...coaching the girls. they are all home for break now, so it's recruiting time. of which i did not partake in last year...so just summer break for me! while that's all fine and dandy...the girls are the best part of that job. and i will miss them terribly. certain ones that is! i suppose it's good i took this opportunity to coach at this level...as i have decided that coaching softball is no longer a passion of mine. i think i might actually never want to be around it again. that's a shame! but that's why we try things out!
2. TO POST A BLOG! megan held a fundraiser tonight for our relay for life team at mom and dads. had a few glasses of wine...so of course there is no better time than now to post a blog! a little wine to take the edge can probably lead to an interesting blog! we will see! :)
3. TO MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY. i feel like right now there is nothing i want more than to get a job with the military teaching at a base in europe somewhere. how could i not want this?! i don't have to pay to get there. i don't have anything holding me to the states. no ring on the finger...no man to stay in town for. hmm...europe is sounding ridiculously good right about now!
4. TO LEARN TO SAY NO. the hardest part about being home is the temptation to eat shit that i don't want to eat! living in the apartment and feeding myself was easy...no extra money spent on stuff i won't eat or stuff i don't need to eat. but now...candy is readily available...ice cream is readily available. i have to learn a whole new level of self control. do i really want to lose another 10 pounds to compete in bodybuilding? yes i want to do it. will it be ridiculously hard to get through the next 3 months? yes! harder to count calories here...we'll see how the next 3 months go in terms of that!
while grad school phase has ended...i have no idea where i go next. i want a job that i have no clue if i'll even qualify for! i keep my fingers crossed for italy....wouldn't it be something to live in italy for a year or two?! oh i can only imagine!!!!
i am independent...and will be for awhile...this is the perfect time to figure out what i want to do and do it. however, that also requires money on most occasions, so i must find something that allows me to make money while doing something new and exciting. maybe then...he'll realize wellington and i aren't soulmates. after being here for a few days...i realize there isn't a lot here that i miss terribly. yes i love seeing my family...but regularly, it's nothing i can't get somewhere else.
wellington....i am officially breaking up with you. something better is going to come along very soon...and i will take it! :) so long!

On my way....
Second week of may.
..classes officially over for my graduate career!!!! I couldn't be happier thanks to that simple fact! So ready to be completely done with that phase of my life!
I am seeing incredible progress with my workout and diet...hence the picture I have included! That is my first attempt at posing...a little rough but looking pretty good!!! Weighed in at 127 yesterday morning and I am thinking probably another 10 pounds to see what I want to see! I love the amount of energy I have and how good I feel everyday...which I am sure is a testament to both working out and the changes in the food I'm eating! This is something I want....and I will get it!
Job searching is kind of in a lull...so I'm not sure what the next chapter will bring...but I do have to make a decision. Stay in the Youngstown area or move home?? Tough choice...there are reasons for both but I can't determine which one is better. All in due time I suppose!
Now with no classes left...maybe I'll have more time to find myself as well as post more and exciting things!! Hopefully....keeping my fingers crossed!! :)
