Wow! It's been a loooong time!

Ok, so I know I have not been blogging at all lately. I'm about to start classes in a couple weeks, so I should begin to have a lot more time to update! Sadly, even though my life has been really busy, I still don't have anything extremely interesting to share.
A few things to update everyone, however, consist of:

-I'm officially a bartender at Ruby Tuesday now and I love it! It really is fun. There is a lot more responsibility and "busy work," but at least it makes the time go by faster throughout my shift. I was also starting to make more money as well, but we have been so dead lately that I haven't been making anything! Let's all pray for that to change soon!! Thanks!

-I started doing Weight Watchers again yesterday. I am the absolute worst dieter in the world, but I really have to stay motivated because I'm getting close to whale-size, and that is just not pretty. It is kinda hard for me because I don't have a lot of money to be spending on healthy foods, which everyone knows are more expensive! Also, WW is time consuming. It works the best if you can prepare the food ahead of time, which I just can't do. But, thank the good Lord that we have Smart Ones and Turkey sandwiches! Those are what gets me through! I also start classes in like 13 days and I have a pretty sweet schedule. I will be able to work at the school and at Ruby's a lot throughout the week and still have a full schedule. That should help me drain some weight. I also have a perfect workout break on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so hopefully that will work out. Wish me luck!

-Jordan came and went. I was dissappointed in him while he was home. He just went a little crazy with the partying, but the time that I did get to spend with him was great. He went back to San Diego, but left again on Sunday to go to the Mohabi Desert for a month for more training. I'm not getting to talk to him as much, mostly because he is a dumbass and forgot his phone charger, so in a few days, I won't get to talk to him at all. But, overall, everything is ok and I'm dealing pretty well. He isn't supposed to be home again until after he gets back from Iraq, but I think he may get to come home for a couple days in September, which will be nice. He leaves for Falusia, Iraq within the first few days of October and should be back in the states by April or May.

-I have officially changed my major from Elementary Education to Psychology. I had about 2 1/2 more years of school with ElEd, which I just could not deal with. But, since I had so many minors and concentrations finished (4 total) in the psychology/counseling area, I should be able to finish by the end of this school year or maybe at the end of the summer. That is great for me! I was also starting to stray from the idea of teaching anyway, so this works out. Plus, with this Psychology degree and my minor in Counseling, I can be a school counselor, which I think would be perfect for me. I have also just found out that there is a counselor at East Side Middle School (the school I work at now that is 40 seconds from my house) who is retiring at the end of this school year, and I think I would have a really good shot at getting that job. The principal loves me! But who knows where I will be at this time next year!

Well, those are a few things that I've been dealing with lately. Don't get me wrong, I do realize how boring this blog ended up being, but I just felt like I needed to post an update.
