10%!!!!!!

So...not too many people know this and I don't think I've blogged about it...but I started Weight Watchers again back around the end of April. Well this week was officially week 16...and I weighed in...and I finally got my first weight loss goal of 10% of my body weight!!! Thats right...in the 4 months since I started I've lost 10% of my body weight! I still have a long way to go..but this is super exciting for me!


My ticker is set based on the minimum loss I need to do to be in the healthy range again....we'll see how things are going when I get there...I may add another 10-20 pounds to my ultimate goal. For the meantime....my next goal...10% of my NEW body weight!!!!!

Socks...

I finished these a while ago but kept forgetting to post pictures. Made using TOFUtsies in I think it was the Light Foot Colorway. Used my generic pattern that I modified from the pattern on the Colinette Jitterbug yarn I am in love with.


Oh..and the sock blockers are from the The Loopy Ewe. Be sure to check it out! Only two more orders from the Loopy Ewe and I am officially a loopy groopie. Gonna have to get Michelle's birthday present from there I think..... :)

Sweeter yet....

1) I'm typing on my new MacBook as I speak!!!! I already got most of the software I needed installed and my music moved over. Working on pictures and documents now.

2) My iphone which was out for repair (don't want to tell THAT story on my blog..if you really want to know and actually KNOW me email me...I'll send ya the story) is finally showing repaired and to be delivered to me TOMORROW! And I never got a call with a repair estimate so I assume that means they fixed it under warranty. YIPPEEEE!!!!!!

I will say though...kudos to apple on the AppleCare Service phones. My iPhone was out of commission 2 days before I got to the apple store to meet with a genius. And I was going crazy without it! Its insane how hooked I am after just 3 weeks with it! Anyway...for $29 you can "rent" a service phone to use while yours is out for repair. I know there is a ton of griping about the battery life and having to rent a phone while the battery gets replaced if you choose to do that.....but after 2 days without my iphone...I had NOOOO problem paying the $29 to rent one while mine was in for repair. OUTSTANDING!!!!

How sweet is today!

Oh man..I'm having the best day!

First, I'm officially enrolled in grad school. My advisor should be in touch today or tomorrow to help me register for my first class.

Second, I got approved for tuition reimbursement started from DAY 1!!!! So now instead of shelling out $5000 this year on school....it will be more like only $500 I spend! Well....plus books...but $500 rather than $5000 is a BITCHIN deal!!!

And finally, my new MacBook showed up today two days ahead of schedule!!!!! If only I didn't have to work this afternoon...I'm going crazy wanting to start playing with it!!!!!
