Toe Update

So, my foot is magic! My bruise started not only on a quarter of my foot, but more concentrated on my pinky toe. IT MOVED! That's right folks, my bruise moved locations. And it moved not once, but twice. Although it's slowly fading now, it bruise is between the middle and "pointer" toes. But it doesn't hurt where the bruise is, my poor little baby toes hurts. I don't get it. But whatever. The pain is lessening, I'm walking better, and my pedicure still looks good. So, there an update on my broken toe.

The end.

Toe pick!

No thank you! Here's an update on my poor little baby toe. It still hurts, worse than it did Monday. Over the course of a day it went from red and slightly swollen, to 5 shades of purple. But hey, at least my pedicure still looks good! Take a look...


So if you stop by Hilmar Cheese and see someone gimping around, that's me!

Do I look any older?

So I'm officially 27 years old!


(This picture was taken earlier this evening.)

Do I feel any different? No. Do I look any different? No. Was my day extraordinary? Well, besides lots of texts and calls wishing me a happy day and eating a brownie ice cream sundae with a co-worker, no. Although, due to amount of work that has to be done on Mondays, a birthday lunch date has been postponed until tomorrow afternoon. Did I do anything exciting today? Ummm...came home from work, visited with dad, took a shower, had a SmartOne for dinner, went to bible study, had strawberry shortcake, opened cards (thank you ladies), came home, started a load of laundry, broke my pinky toe, and now I'm blogging. Pretty eventful day.

Did I mention I broke my pinky toe? Yea, it hurts.

(Guess which toe it is. I'll give you a clue, it's the swollen red one.)

On the flip side, God has provided a great year full of new friends and trips among many other things. Although, new gray hairs have been starting to sprout up more often...

I'm excited to see what God has in store for me this up coming new chapter/year of my life. For one thing, my best friend is getting married and I'm in the wedding. Super uber excited for Rylen and Jim and being able to share that special day with them. I'm sure I'll be heading on a few more mini vacas and having loads more fun and experiences with friends. I'm excited that every day that passes is one day closer to when I'll meet the man God has been saving and growing for me.

I feel that this is going to be a good year! God has lots in store for me in my 27th year of life!

3 more shopping day!

Monday is my birthday :) I'll be the ripe ol' age of 27! Can you believe it? That's old!

Here is my amazon.com wish list in case you still need to get me a gift: My Amazon.com Wish List

I'd really like the Bosu ball.

But don't feel obligated... :)

That's it.

May flowers cont.

8. Quit rewarding myself with food. If I do something good or deserving or a reward (went on a walk, lost weight, made it through a day at work, etc.) I tend to treat myself to something with calories, and lots of them. Time to reward myself with something different. A pedicure, manicure, new shirt, or purse, or whatever.

You know you've missed pictures of the puppies. So let me feed you some more recent ones. They definitely have their own personality and attitude.

May Flowers

New Month Resolutions time! May resolutions are:

1. Actively seek God in my day to day life, worshiping Him and bring Him glory.

2. Still... No pastries, desserts, and nibblings from Hilmar Cheese. They are delicious. But they are the death of me.

3. Yep, this one again... Lose 5 pounds. Time to get seriously serious, summer is closer than just around the corner, it's in less than a month.

4. Go somewhere out of the area. Last month was Washington DC. It won't be somewhere as far, but I'm definitely going somewhere at least 50 miles away. My BFF, Rylen, and I are planning something for Memorial Day weekend. But we're not sure what to do yet. Any ideas?

5. Still Target in moderation. Shopping only by a list of needs. And no, that does not mean that I'll be making the list as I shop. :)

6. God has a plan for me in my job situation. And I'm trusting Him, but I still have to actively pursue opportunities out there. So I will continue to look for a new job.

7. Have the BEST darn birthday EVER (May 14)! Anyone care to join me?

And the results are in...

April Resolution Results!

1. Actively seek God in my day to day life, worshiping Him and bring Him glory.
A continued work in progress that will never be completed or perfected until I am with my Maker.

2. No pastries, desserts, and nibblings from Hilmar Cheese. They are delicious. But they are the death of me.
I'm not going to lie and say that I passed this one with flying colors. BUT I was much more in control. Definitely one to continue working on.

3. Yep, this one again... Lose 5 pounds. Time to get seriously serious, summer is just around the corner.
I don't know how I ended the month overall. But I do know that I didn't make the 5 pounds down mark, but I did lose some. HAHA, I'm a loser!

4. Go somewhere out of the area. I got this one in the bag!
Ummmm....Hi, I flew across the country to our Nation's Capital to visit good friends. It was fantastic!

5. Still Target in moderation. Shopping only by a list of needs. And no, that does not mean that I'll be making the list as I shop. :)
I went to Target only a handful of times and was in control.

6. Heavily pursue finding a new job.
Came to the realization that if I must then I will move out of the area for a new job. Of course, I'll only move to places that I'd like to live. So far, besides the Modesto to Merced radius I've looked at SLO County. Possible potential jobs being referred to me by people I know...thank you!

And for the Lent season I have given up soda.
Piece of cake! Success!
