Stressed to the Max

Weighed in today, same ole same ole. No movement. To be honest, it's what I expected. I went to the gym 3 times last week, but also didn't watch what I ate that much. I need to start measuring and really keeping track again. I'm hoping a trip back home to Arcata will rejuvenate me. Being with my loving and supportive family and a change of scenery is just what I need I think. My dad has agreed to go on two runs with me while I'm up there which will be nice.

I have also been really stressed this week. Unemployment is making me jump through tons of hoops, and it's stressing me out. I also haven't heard anything from any of the state jobs or teaching jobs I've applied to. I'm just feeling jaded that I went to college and worked my butt off in the credential program for nothing. As I told my friend Melissa who is kind of in my same situation, I just want a big girl job. I want to work 40+ hours a week, get benefits, vacation days, a good salary, ect. When I start to stress I just need to take a deep breath and remember all the things that I am thankful for and that this too will pass. My friend Linda tried to help me with a bagel intervention yesterday, but it was too late. I had eaten the bagels and drank the coffee. But it was sweet of her to try to help out with my emotional bagel eating.

I am going on another date with the same guy from last Friday tonight. We are basically going on my dream date, Trivia at a pub! :) I love love love trivia (and Steve is pretty cool too haha). I have looked at the pub menu and there aren't a lot of healthy options. But right now, I really don't care. :) I'm just excited!
