-tennis shoes (pref. New Balance) size 8 1/2 womens
-electronic scale
-address book
-weight watchers cook book (used is fine!!)
-anything orange/ginger from Bath and Body Works (lotion, body wash...)
-gift card to Chilis, Olive Garden, Red Lobster, etc.
-gift card to movie theater (AMC)
-money towards real estate school (still owe $495 to get licensed)
-money to take Shakespeare class at the Austin Shakespeare Theater ($200 for 8-week class)

That's it :)

newest update!


Well, our mac computer died and it will cost $800 to fix it... which we obviously don't have. So we are sort of permanently borrowing dad's Dell computer and getting to know it.

We recently got Skype up and running and have been enjoying communicating with people. Still working on uploading pictures and stuff like that.

News in our lives: Toby is working his butt off at Tres Amigos and still doesn't have a single day off between work and teaching yoga. He recently was brought in by a theater company in town to do some fight choreography. They are advertising him in their program and are eager to use him again and get him more work. He also has a private yoga student who he's been working with in the wee hours on Tues and Thurs mornings. And a High School class brought him in to teach a brief yoga class for their culture exploration class. So... he's one busy man.

My most exciting news is that i have lost 21 lbs since the wedding with Weight Watchers. Not really excersizing as much as I could, I'm just eating right and I feel GREAT. My goal is to loose another 9 lbs by my Birthday so that I am at my pre-pregnancy weight, and from there I'll have another 20 lbs to go to get to my dream weight!! Wish me luck.

I also quit my job at TGI Fridays. That place was a nightmare and I wasn't making ANY money, plus our free, family babysitter will be moving away very soon and I would've had to look for something new soon anyway... It was a terrible job. Really, really bad. The managers were just MORONS and mean and hateful. Boo. So now I'm just looking around. I signed up with a temp agency and I have responded to about 20 craigslist adds and I've got some good leads. Something will come up shortly. It always does :)

I guess I'll just post some more pictures from the wedding that people have been sending us. Man, there are soooo many of them.
