Moving Forward!

So Phase 1 of my master plan has been going ok so far. I have been walking to work as often as I can and when the weather pemits. I am eating better...although not fantastic....but making much more of an effort. At the very least I try to stop eating when I feel full instead of continuing shoveling it in...which I usually do! But lets face it....I LOVE FOOD!!!!!!!! I like to eat....alot! One change I have made is I eat something for breakfast during the week days. Not so much on the weekend. I've allowed myself the weekend to do what I want as far as eating and being lazy...after all.....I can't be good all the time! haha

Now that Phase 1 is underway and going along ok I have been thinking of starting to move toward the second phase.....update coming soon on that one!

My youngest son is still sleeping on the couch. Which is fine. I am enjoying the company although I really don't see much of him (or my car!). He has been spending time with his buddies which is good but also spending a bit of time with the ex GF....not sure how I feel about that...I personally think it would be in his best interest to move on and some day meet someone else. He did tell me she is thinking of moving to Alberta in November with a couple of friends...he thinks she's crazy...of course my first response was "tell me your not going too" haha...he assures me is not....lets hope!

My oldest son has been looking for a more challenging job for quite some time now. Last week he went for an interview with a large company and they called him at the end of last week to tell him he made "the very short list" of applicants to come back for a second interview with the VP of the company. That interview took place yesterday and they told him they were very impressed and the next applicant had big shoes to fill....a pretty good compliment! Now....here is the bad news.....the job in in Nova Scotia!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is a small chance he could work from here but they may need to move. So you see my delima...on one hand I hope he gets it because it would be a wonderful opportunity career wise for him...on the other hand I wouldn't be able to see my grandsons near as much as I do now...and that makes me very sad :(
So he will know by the end of this week one way or another....I hope he gets the job and can work from here....how selfish is that haha

I'm still trying to figure out this blog thing cause I really want to put up a cross stitching gallery to update my progress on my WIP(s) but so far I haven't figured out how...any help is much appreciated! I really need to work harder at doing more stitching and I figure if I post progress once in awhile it will encourage me to get my butt in gear haha Our fall retreat is coming up in November and this year we are going up an extra day....OMG!!!! I am so excited! I can't wait to go and relax and stitch and laugh and talk and just be there! I really can't explain the feeling of being there...its like every good holiday and feeling I have all rolled into one! haha

So thats it for now...I have to go figure out how I'm going to watch 3 shows tonight at the same time! I would really like to know who's bright friggin idea it was to put Survivor on Wednesday night! They totally screwed up my TV schedule! I'm very excited about the season premier of the Tudors and Hell's Kitchen....thank God for time shifting on my satalite dish...its gonna be a late night!
