SUGAR HIGH

Okay I caved, I fell, I lost it...over what?  After 7.5 weeks of zero desserts and sugar I lost it over Samoas!  Those yummy girl scout cookies! I just ate four...every bite was savored! YUMMO!  Then, the very next day I ate up my friend's Candy Shop Pizza...I will be making it to the next friend and family events coming up in the near future!   Today, so far I am back on track!  I hit the six week mark and indulged in new work out clothes!  I fill hip now!  I also am still going to the gym.  I am kind of bored with spinning and decided to try something new on Wednesday! I felt like I had betrayed my instructor and all my friends from class.  I just wanted more of an upper body workout.  I will be going back soon.  I also am loving yoga! I never get bored, each week I feel stronger and master a new posture!  It is rocking my world!   It is also been a soothing time for me to pray.  The instructor keeps us focused on a verse and I have been trying to memorize scripture! Great opportunity! I also use those last few minutes with the lavender towel to get some prayer/meditation time in with God! 

I have been super busy with work and I have a huge praise! I interviewed for a job I did not really want but, thought I needed to contribute to the Ware Fund! I interviewed, knowing I was NOT qualified nor wanted it and was declined the offer!  I for some reason was shocked at this! I had prayed that God would work it out but, still...rejection and I don't sit well together!  HA! 
The very next week I get a call from my favorite job asking me to teach two more classes and then supervise some student teachers in the area!  Talk about a God thing!  I love the subjects I teach there and the opportunity I pass on my passion for children and reading to future teachers!  Such a blessing! My other job is also keeping me busy with a Children's Literature class....another super fun class! It has been such a blessing to have a job I enjoy so much! With this class I am able to inform parents on the benefits of reading with and to their children! The majority of my students at this class are mid thirties working families. 
I am not going to say that all these night classes have been or will be easy! I have been getting my work on and it is time to slow down! 
The negatives to working at night are paying off for the days when this weather is beautiful! I am loving it!

Another exciting thing is our Bible class on Wednesdays has decided to do a summer study! I am pumped! I am praying a friend of mine will teach, I can't lead this summer...too much other teaching going on! I threw the idea at her and lets hope she takes the bait!  I feel so blessed to be apart of this group, hidden blessing in disguise! 
Hmm..what else?  Emily is bring her love to our house this Sunday! I am thrilled to meet him and fall in love too!  Of course in a sister kind of way!
