august in austin

i'm still here, in case anyone was wondering. sweating it up in austin. have i ever mentioned how much i hate extreme weather? mostly the heat/humidity. i would so much rather be cold than hot and apparently texas doesn't see so much cold. at least it's stopped raining. that's something to be thankful for.

work is interesting. i'm learning a lot. there looks like i have the opportunity to grow a lot with this company, which is good, along with the possibility of moving to other areas, which is better. i'm not sure how much i'm able to say until it's official so it will have to stay a surprise until then...but i could be going somewhere beautiful and new and i so want it to happen.

married life is wonderful. changing all of my information sucks. i've done my social security card and some of my bills. i'm putting off my license for a few reasons...one: i paid for an extended license period for this last one in georgia and two: i love the picture! vain? oh well. i can't help it that i was twenty pounds lighter then and liked it.

speaking of weight...i've gained some. if you couldn't tell from some of the wedding pictures then i will go ahead and let you know that it's true. i've gained everything back that i lost before leaving charlotte...and then some. well, today i hit a wall and am ready to take back my figure. "what was it???" you might ask...another person asked me if i was pregnant. which i'm not. when did it stop being taboo to ask someone if they were pregnant? apparently when i gained the weight. that's 4 people since i've moved to austin. i'm over it.

and while we're on the subject, don't be looking for baby news any time soon. i need to get my life straight and potty train my dogs before attempting to raise a child. although part of me wishes i were pregnant so i could stop worrying about the weight thing. i was talking with a friend (who is very pregnant) and told her i am preparing my body for pregnancy because i know our baby is going to like to eat and i'm not sure i will be able to keep up with the hunger. is that not normal?

tonight i eat the roast i've slaved over the slow-cooker all day to make, tomorrow i fast! well, maybe not fast but at least start working out again.

well...that's all i know how to put into words right now. i hope you all are well and miss you terribly.

love...spread it.
