lately on my walks i've been listening to sorcerer radio. srsounds.com it's an all disney all the time online radio channel. pretty good! only problem is that they've been running this 'christmas in july' show alot and listening to chip and dale singing christmas songs in this heat is a little weird. if anyone's looking for a little disney in their workouts i suggest listening to it. helps pass the time for sure!
Back at school, before I started listening to the HP soundtracks while studying, I would listen to the various Disney stations.

Always cheered me up a bit, and now I have the "4 Parks, 1 World" CD, plus various other songs, like the soundtracks from IllumiNations, World of Color, Spectro, etc.
Question of the Day
I was told when I was growing up that "Idle hands are the devil's workshop" Some people suggest that to curb snacking you should have a hobby.
Do you have a hobby? Does it help you stop snacking?
My hobbies are reading, hanging out online, and playing the flute. I definitely can't eat while playing flute, but the other two make it easier. However, lately I have stopped eating in my room/the living room and that has seemed to help a lot.
After everything I've eaten this week, imagine my shock when I was down significantly at WW this morning.

How in the world did that happen? I was dumbfounded and kept looking at my membership book because I was in a state of disbelief. LOL! Staying on track this week should be somewhat easier.

Great job, and I'm glad to hear that Cali is doing okay.
Patterns are so awkward sometimes

It's funny, because everything else I made the size I thought I was gonna need, and it's a little big now! Go figure, haha
Mom is making my Minnie Mouse dress for
MNSSHP, and she had to choose a pillowcase type dress because we don't know what my measurements are going to be. We even picked the biggest pattern size for that, and according the back, my bust still might be too big.
I'm so sick of TX heat!! Its 112 degrees outside right now (and I wish I was kidding when I say that). We went out to run some simple errands and we're both drenched. Its pretty sad when you have to take 2 showers a day becaue of the dang heat.
Last August when I went back to school, I distinctly remember we had about a week where it was just so hot and humid that pretty much everyone was showering literally about 3 times per day. It was disgusting.
Good Luck to Cam and Maria, and anyone I might be missing who is running the Providence RnR 1/2 this weekend! I hope you have a FABULOUS time! I can't wait to hear all about it!
Good luck!

Today has been overall a very on plan day. I had one small slice of banana bread and a bowl of cereal after work that I hadn't planned on, but I've drank most of my water for the day and gotten in about 6 fruits and veggies. Did not have the time/energy to go for a run.
The banana bread was courtesy of the teacher at school. She said the way she dealt with the student's death was to obsessively clean her house and bake, so she brought us the bread so we could "eat our feelings" if need be. All we know is that he went into cardiac arrest, and the teacher pointed out that as horrible as it is, at least it didn't happen at school. My mom said that yes, that was good, because as traumatic as it would have been for everyone, it also would have brought in numerous investigations from the school, the agency, the state, etc.
On a happier note, I started my first grad school app this evening! Kent State in Ohio, as it's the only one that has their applications open for Fall 2012 so far. I also sent e-mails asking a few professors if they would be willing to serve as my references, just so I could put their names down-at University of Florida, the earlier you submit your application, the better the chances of getting on campus housing. I told them they don't actually need to submit the recommendations yet, just asking if I could list them. Scary! I also need to start working on my "personal statement" about why I am continuing my education, why in this field, what I plan to do, etc.
