I Can't Believe it's March...

I can't believe it's March already. A little over four months ago, two friends and I decided to book a trip to Europe and now that time has come. By this time next week I will be in Paris, and I'm not the only one freaking out. We already exchanged some cash for Euros, which by the way, is quite the hassle, and Bambi had already packed everything this past Monday. LOL! Cannot wait for next week!

This past week, my bathing suit was delivered and I tried it on. My new swimsuit looks amazing! Let’s just say my body needs some work; got to work off the winter coat ;-) So, I joined the UT Med Center gym this week and its go time. I'm so freaking serious about getting my body into shape for the upcoming boating season. I had my coworker, Pam, write out a weight training routine for me (by the way, she's a workout fanatic, so she's very helpful in this department). I started my fitness schedule Tuesday and every single night I've been sore. Like a good sore though. I feel great, and this is the first time I've incorporated weights so frequently in my normally cardio routine (I love the burn). You don't realize how many muscles you have until they're all hurting every time you move. I do walk like a 90 year old lady from my sore muscles, but then I think of why I'm in pain and I just smile. Nothing motivates you quite as much as seeing yourself in a bikini...




This week I took an exam to be certified to ship HAZMAT material. Yeah, you actually have to be certified to ship dangerous and infectious substances. Good to know. I just received an email saying I should get my certificate early next week. Awesome! Racking in those certificates ;-) I think I'm starting to become an invaluable employee.

I’m so excited about hitting up the Women Today Expo on Sunday with some girlfriends. If you’re in Knoxville this is such a fun event to participate in and they have so many activities to keep you busy for hours. Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!!

  2. Thanks Melanie! It took me awhile to decide on my background, as I wanted it to represent my personality. I need to find time to look at more peoples blogs from our East Tennessee group. Thanks again for visiting!
