Okay so it took my a while to figure out how to use AOL Journals, and now I've got to get used to it over here. I will but it might take me a while.
Things have been hectic, school is really tough this semester and I am trying very hard to stay afloat, as are many of us I guess.
My routine has been consisting of me getting up early every moring and walking about a mile to the gym, working out for an hour to an hour and a half, then walking home, taking a shower and being glued to the computer for the rest of the day and most of the night doing assignments.
Yesterday alone I spent a little over 10 hours trying to write lesson plans and finish "reflections", I "reflect so much it's just not even funny.
I started working out the same day school started, so that was August 28th, I don't know how much I weighed then, or even how much I've lost, but I know I'm getting somewhere because, I am actually starting to see definition.
I also started lifting weights, and I really love it. I needed it too, I mean I am WEAK! I guess I must have lost a lot of muscle when I lost weight.
I'm really enjoying my time at the gym and have met a lot of nice ladies that push me when I just don't want to do it. That really keeps me motivated.
Well I hope I don't miss anyone, I'm trying to locate all my J-land buddies but it's tough to keep up, so if I haven't gotten to you yet, please make yourself heard and I'll be swinging by as soon as possible.
About Me
- Eva
- Staten Island, New York, United States
- My name is Eva, I've been married to my hubby for almost 3 years now, and we have a baby girl named Haeley. She is my world, and I never knew what true, unconditional , unwavering love was until she was placed in my arms. There is no feeling on the planet like being a mother, the words have not been invented to describe the way I feel about my little girl. I thank God for giving my husband and I the girft of being her parents. After having Haeley I went back to school to finish my BA in Education, I love children and I love to learn new things. I think children have a beautifully pure way of looking at the world and making others see the beauty they see. When I am helping a child nothing else seems to matter, all my problems melt away and I am in my element. I become optimistic, alive, happy, and goofy. I absolutely adore my hubby, without him I do believe it would have taken me years to see the potential I have within me. He showed me that I am good enough and complete just the way I am. He makes me smile, laugh, and cry because of his generosity and loyalty to those he loves. I am blessed that his love has touched mine and my family's lives.

You are kicking butt at the gym Eva! With all you have to do at school, it takes dedication to make time for that, I'm so proud of you. I'm so happy that you have met some friends there, it makes it seem much less like work when you have someone to share the pain with!! LOL!
Love you friend!
Pooh Hugs,
Linda
