Life lately....

Life lately is fun.  Very fun!  My days consist of work which is fun and exhausting and overwhelming and exhilarating all at the same time!!  In the evenings, I spend time with friends, family or fiance.  I've been going to the gym 4-5 times a week which I'm loving!  I love going to classes: weight lifting, zumba and even kickboxing!!  I've also started training for a 5K.  I don't have a specific race in mind yet.  Weight Watchers is doing a Walk-It Challenge where they are encouraging members to train to walk 5K.  I can already walk 5K so I'm challenging myself to run/jog 5K.   I'm one week into it.  So far so good.  I'm using the Couch to 5K plan which I'm hoping will get me to where I need to be while not killing me!!  I also started taking a Spanish class...3 classes in and I'm still at "hola" but I'm practicing and understanding so far...lots of practice left!!

My days also consist of planning...planning for a wedding!!  We set a date: June 16, 2012.  Nathan and I are ready to begin our life as a married couple but this date will give us plenty of time to plan and relax.  Here's hoping that I'll have a teaching job for next year so I don't want to overwhelm myself with wedding planning, wedding and school year!  Whew.  I'm enjoying gathering information and reading several books to begin preparations.  Only 423 days left!!!

spring break

I am in love with spring break.  Don't worry, I haven't forgotten Nathan, my true love, but spring break...oh spring break.  So what if I have things I should be doing, I'm just gonna lay in bed or on the couch.  I'm going to lay here and read other people's blogs about wonderful beautiful things they are making and creating.  And I'm going to choose not to feel bad about it!  Whoo hoo spring break!!
