Is it Friday already?

So it is only Tuesday and I am SOO tired! Ever since I have been house-sitting, I don't think that I have had a decent night's rest. I show up to work, tired, and already on my second can of Diet Dr. Pepper. Obviously, when 'wiggle time' with the kiddos (any excuse for me to listen and dance to high school musical) happens I bounce back and I'm great. But then around nap time, if only I could just close my eyes for a sec..

Just to let y'all know, on Tuesdays I go to Trivia at Bakers Street Pub in the village. It has been a tradition ever since my friend Candace's birthday. My friend Kat comes with me and we have a blast even though we have won third place twice. So if you hear me refer to trivia as tnt (Tuesday night trivia) you will know what I mean.

I can't wait till this weekend! We (my family) have decided to take our Christmas picture at the Frio River and I just bought a dress for it. I am now all about the dresses. I am been exercising for the past couple of weeks to get in the best shape for Budapest and just because I am in the mood to do it. That is a huge accomplishment for me. I have had weight issues throughout my pre-teen, teen, and now adult life. I was very thin when I was younger and when middle school hit, I gained a lot of weight. Then in high school I developed an eating disorder and it wasn't until a couple of months after I became a Christian (summer before my sophomore year of high school) I realized that I needed help. I had lots of friends to help me through that difficult time in my life, but it was my faith that really helped me deal with it. Since then, my weight has gone up and down and then up. When I started working at the church, I had some personal things I was going through and I gained a ton of weight. Then I started watching what I was eating and lost a lot of weight. Now I am back in the game of watching big time what I am eating and becoming more active. I guess that it helps that I teach three year olds because they are super active! So because I am happy with how I look, I am looking to dress more fun! Wow, alot to say on why I like to wear dresses now!

I'm off to make turkey tacos and get ready for TNT.
In His Name,
Lindsey
