Health:
My glucose counts are still doing really well, as is the weight loss. I've taken myself off of the injection that I was prescribed a few months ago. It's an "extra" med and I'm just not seeing the major benefits the doctor talked about - especially not at $60 a month. :) On the plus side, I'm still losing weight. At last count, I've lost almost 40 lbs, 1 shirt size, and 3 pants sizes since the first of the year and I feel great!
Job and Home:
James has started a new job and I'm leaving mine. He's driving for a company that is located about two hours south of where we live now. So, we're moving there hopefully before the end of August. It's not a huge move for us since it's only two hours away (and I graduated high school nearby), but it's a big move for us in terms of getting back on our feet and moving on after everything we've been through over the past 3.5 years. And because of the move, I'll be looking for work. I'm crossing my fingers that I can run across a secretary/bookkeeper position at one of the schools that will be starting around the time we move. Those of you who really know me know that while I don't want to teach, my heart is in working at the schools.
Craftiness:
I finally made something! Well, deconstructed and remade something. :) Several years ago, I bought a jewelry box that I hate. Yeah, I know: "Why did you buy a jewelry box that you hate?" Well, long story short, it held jewelry and I needed something that did just that. I finally bought something different to use for my jewelry, so it was time to do something about that tacky jewelry box (forgive the quality of the pictures). The first pic is the before. Nothing stayed organized and I had to untangle necklaces anytime I wanted to wear them. That just did not work for me! So the lid became a hanging mirror with hooks along the bottom (perfect for drying unmentionables that do not go into the dryer) and the bottom became a corral for all of my perfumes that tend to jump off of the dresser. More crafty things to come!
