So, there you have it. I am weird. And I let my weirdness feed on itself until I've weirded myself out about doing something that's totally no big deal. UGH. I should probably get some therapy, huh?
Since I last wrote:
- I got to meet Angela. Holy cannoli, she is the sweetest, the cutest, the most motivating. She is simply awesome.
- I completed a half-marathon, in no small part thanks to Angela, who gave me the motivation to finish. It was hell, I was exhausted, but I did it.
- I was in my BFF's wedding in California. It was absolutely beautiful, and it was so much fun to wear a size 18 dress. And I hired Joey to design their wedding gift, which turned out better than I could have ever dreamed!
- I've intereviewed with FIVE companies and have a sixth scheduled for Thursday.
- I had one job offer I turned down. It was with D*isney. The pay was PATHETIC. Pitiful really. Half of what I made at my last job, and my last job was a small non-profit in one of the most economically disadvantaged cities in the entire country.
- I had to turn down an invitation to join the lovely BOOBS in Chicago, once again. I have already had two girls' only trips this year and am planning another to go see a dear friend who's pregnant when she has her baby next month (ironically in Chicago). I think DH would leave me if I asked for a fourth girls' only trip this year.
- I'm back down to my lowest weight. And think I'm finally ready to enter uncharted territory.
- I realized I've not had a fill in nearly 11 months! Crazy!
- I've been super busy with photography and finally have paying customers!
Well, no matter how long you're gone...it's nice when you're back. I've missed you!
ReplyDeleteSweet, sweet, Amy...... I'll follow you until the end of time! This momma <3's you, and will read all your posts, no matter what! :)
ReplyDeleteLook at you, rocking an 18!! Woo-Hooooooooooo!
Ah Amy we all let our weirdness get a hold of us. And I am glad that your back! And Whoot Whoot on the size 18 dress!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm still here, still reading. Knowing you're a busy mama and you'll write when you can write. We miss you, but there is NO pressure!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on everything you've accomplished!!
Sounds like you have been really busy. Congrats on the half marathon! What an accomplishment!
ReplyDeleteNo judging....only loving! XOXO
ReplyDeleteI'm here and still love to read your blog (and let's face it, I'm a terrible blogger as well. My posts are few and far between!). At least I can stay up to date with what's going on with ya via facebook!
ReplyDeleteGirlfriend I have done the same exact thing as you. Stayed away and figured no one would care if I wrote on my blog or not....that is until Theresa contacted me on Facebook. I still post maybe only once a week or so. We're here and it's ok to get weirded out. Hey, I do it all the time ;-). From the looks of it you have been very busy, glad you stopped in to give us an update.
ReplyDeleteI'm still here and I've been wondering about you.
ReplyDeleteI was the blogger who just disappeared for six months and when I came back I was overwhelmed with the fact that you all actually remembered me!!
I'm so proud of you for completing the half. I really want to do that someday.
Welcome back! CONGRATS on the half marathon, that's serious business. Sounds like things are going great for you, I'm glad you came back to tell us all about it. LOVE the new profile pic!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are back whenever you post!! I can totally relate to those feelings about wanting to come back but putting it off...I'm glad that things are going well for you and half marathon?! amazing and congrats to you and angela! so glad the photography is going well also and can't wait to see some pics!
ReplyDeleteIts great to see you here Amy. Thank God for FB though, I follow your busy life over there! You've been busy and its all good stuff! Congrats on the 1/2!
ReplyDeletecan I say that I have thought about you more then once. Right after you posted the last time I wanted to get in touch with you about a photo idea I had...and then I don't know what happened. I just forgot. Not a good excuse but there you go. You were one of my very first followers and I never forget that!
ReplyDeleteBeyond that you sound like you are doing pretty darn well! Sad I won't get to meet you in Chicago. I wish you lived closer so I could hire you to take some pictures! Please don't leave for long!
Welcome back. I've been following your escapades on FB. Funny but I was thinking just yesterday that I hadn't seem a post from you for a long time. Didn't realize it had been 6 weeks. Maybe we'll all have to come to Florida to meet ya!
ReplyDeleteBecause I'm constantly stalking you on FB, I would never notice that you'd been absent here. :) I am, however, glad to see a post from you! xo
ReplyDeleteYou are too sweet! I never would have raced without you! Glad to hear from you. I want to see the pics you've been taking...and you know we could always talk on the phone like real people :)
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear from you! So many NSVs, excellent! Especially the half marathon, that is huge. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteGlad you posted! Congratulations on completing the half with Angela. That really is an awesome accomplishment.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back!
