Life Update

So I’ve been MIA for awhile. Sorry about that. But there’s been good reason for that, I promise! I told you a few weeks ago that I changed hours at work. I now work 8:45am to 5:45pm which is nice…but I produce the Midday and 5pm news now, which means I hit the ground running the instant I walk in the door. I had it pretty easy before; about 7 hours to produce a 30 minute show that aired at 5pm. So I suppose I deserve this!

Its not so bad, and I really like getting off work early!

I’m in the middle of training for the Lincoln Half-Marathon (this will be my 2nd one!) I had my 10 mile run last Sunday. It was hot, humid, and windy, but I survived and I shaved some time off the last time I ran 10 miles last year! Small victories, right? I did manage to get a sunburn because it was 80 degrees and super sunny out!

Life is chugging along nicely. I’m in a good place. I’ve maintained my 150 pound weight loss since I hit that magic number in October..so that makes me very happy! My doctor has said that I’m not allowed to lose any more weight, just maintain. What a concept!

The weather is fantastic here this weekend! I hope you have a great one friends! 🙂

Thank you!

For all the birthday wishes! I had a pretty epic 30th birthday! From the messages on here to facebook to everything my friends and family did for me, I feel so blessed to have all of them and you in my life!

So thank you again for thinking of me on my special day. It was pretty wonderful!

I’m freaking out a little here…

My (gulp) 30th birthday is a week from today. I’d like to think I’m handling this well, when in fact, I’m wishing time would slow down a bit. How am I nearly 30? Where has the time gone?

But to be truly honest with you all, I’m ok with getting older. My life is good. I’m happier than ever. But something about an age with a zero at the end kind of makes the heart skip a beat.

I’ve got a week left of being 29 so I’m going to savor every moment of it!

Happy Friday Friends! 🙂

I’ve been MIA lately…

This week my life has gotten crazy! As you may know, I’m a TV News Producer. This means I write the news that the anchors read on the air. I’ve been the Senior Producer at my station for 5 or so years now. I write the 5pm newscast. This week, they decided to expand our morning show to 2 hours and move our morning/midday producer to work the overnights, and I was moved up to produce the midday and 5pm. I come in earlier and leave earlier, which is nice. But every morning this week when I come into work I hit the ground running. No time to ease into the day. Just GO!

Its going ok, but I’m exhausted. Add to that, I’m in the middle of week 7 of training for the Lincoln Half-Marathon. And I’m a morning runner, so this means my alarm goes off at 5:30am so I can be out the door or on the treadmill by 6am. The end result? I fall into bed at 9pm.

On the plus side? I sleep really, really well! Deep sleeps with super interesting dreams! So that’s fun. 🙂

I promise to be a better blogger! I enjoy the camaraderie that comes from this community and appreciate that you all care about me as much as I care about you too!

Have a great day Friends! 🙂
