Prince Edward Island

I use SiteMeter to track visitors to my website, and recently someone from Prince Edward Island - an island in Canada, near Nova Scotia- visited my site. I know most of you are probably like "Ok, big deal, get a life" UNTIL I tell you that I would DIE to get to go to Prince Edward Island (also know as PEI) for SO many reasons...



1- That is where Anne of Green Gables was set and filmed (one of my all time favorite books and movies!)
2- It is an absolutely beautiful island with coasts, cliffs, fields, lakes, etc... they are breathtaking!
3- I have thought for a while that if I ever get married, I might like to honeymoon on the island, and/or, if I was to ever write a book, I would want to rent a little cottage in the middle of nowhere on the island and isolate myself and just write and live, enjoying all the island has to offer!
4-I think there are other reasons, I am just such a spazz about it!



So to WHOEVER YOU ARE! from PEI, thank you for visiting my blog, I hope you enjoyed it, and I REALLY hope to visit your amazing island one day!

Its Been A While...

Its been a while since I last posted, and a major reason for that is my new job, that keeps me exhausted all the time! I started working at the City Hospital at a "tray passer" delivering trays to patients rooms. The job starts at 6 in the morning, and I walk mile after mile each day, until 2:30. Therefore, I go to bed sometime between 7 and 8pm... I know, pathetic. Its a steady job, and the hospital has great perks, but it is definitely exhausting. So because of all this walking, this is what happened:



Also, because of all the walking and sweating each day at work, I have been losing more and more weight, and of this morning, my total weight loss since May is 26 lbs! I haven't weighed this for almost 4 years. Its a great feeling to know that I am disciplined enough to be healthy and get some exercise (some at the hospital, and some through Curves!). Lately things have been looking up, and that is such a good thing :)
