Updates, Updates

Okay, so jumping back into blogging after taking some time off? Clearly hasn't happened too well. But I do have some updates for you all, and some free time here at work (well not really, I may be procrastinating), so i thought it was a perfect time to share.

First, I am not doing so well with Molly's Challenge that I wrote about last time. First week in, I had made it to the gym 5 times, like I hoped, but had gained 2.2 pounds. I was bummed, but knew I hadn't eaten well so knew it was my own fault. Second week: gym 5 times, treadmill on additional day, and no weight gain. No weight loss either, but no gain. I was still pretty bummed. Of course, the next day I weighed myself also, which I don't normally do, and I was down 1.8 pounds from the day before, so I took it. Of course since then I had pizza twice and missed the gym yesterday. We'll see how the rest of the weekend treats me... I don't have high hopes because I will be celebrating pretty much all weekend.

Celebrating? Oh yes, celebrating. Lots and lots. Because my Boy Wonder proposed last night and I'm officially engaged!!!!! The whole thing was wonderful. I was having a bad day yesterday, so he told me he was going to pick me up from work and take me out to try and cheer me up. First we went and he got me a manicure, and I thought that was going to be it. Then he started driving around, and stopped by a boathouse near the river in town, with a beautiful view of the downtown skyline. Thinking we were just stopping there since I mentioned I had to go to the bathroom, I didn't see it coming when he stopped me, said, "I have a question to ask you," and got down on one knee. He said some beautiful things (what all they were, I couldn't tell you because I was too shocked and busy saying yes before he even finished talking), and then took me out to dinner, where he had already secured a bottle of Dom.

Needless to say, my day got a lot better!
