I almost can't remember everything that has happened in August, but here we go.<br /><br />I spent most of August preparing to start colleg at St. Petersburg College on Monday, August 24. There were so many different things I had to do prior to classes starting. This semester I am taking Human Anatomy which is in-class on Mondays/Wednesdays and Healthcare Ethics class that is online. I was able to transfer over my three+ years at Ohio University and I am persuing my bachelors degree in Health Services Administration. My first stop is an associate degree in Health Information Management. I will be able to start course work fall 2010. <br /><br />I was very nervous and had a lot of anxiety for my first class on Monday, August 24. I felt like I would be the oldest in my class, I would not know how to study, I would fail before I started. After the first week, all of the anxiety went away as I am not the oldest and I still do have brain cells. <br /><br />I also had anxiety for Drake as we found out he needed a biopsy on his prostate. This came as a surprise to both of us. His procedure was on Friday, August 28 and I am SO proud of him. I thought for sure he would pass out and not go through with the procedure. I called the urologist the day prior and explained Drake's fears and they were very gentle with him during the procedure. Drake and I were extremely exhausted after the tests. We will find out the results on Friday, September 11. Our fingers are crossed and we are praying for good news!<br /><br />Drake was driving home one day and they stopped traffic on the bridge because there was a funnel cloud in Tampa Bay. He called me and I was like, "Take a picture!" and he said "No way, I am scared to death!" So I told him to 'duck' on the floor of his car if it came his way. Of course, I would have had my camera out! Here is a picture of the funnel cloud that was posted in the St. Petersburg Times. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOSLU1uCcLYGpX6vofsVSOIablvWxzzdYbvRiW3_CTm-7PlVKW8V1F5IjQwnyU3b88RVmzbA_acYHkRjqno7xqc-UzbHqmPsRzgC6UceKxt27GD130OPERZH__b4jReSm-2Mk0/s1600-h/tb_clwTornado01_400x_77846a.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 285px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOSLU1uCcLYGpX6vofsVSOIablvWxzzdYbvRiW3_CTm-7PlVKW8V1F5IjQwnyU3b88RVmzbA_acYHkRjqno7xqc-UzbHqmPsRzgC6UceKxt27GD130OPERZH__b4jReSm-2Mk0/s320/tb_clwTornado01_400x_77846a.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379118963600928258" /></a>39andWaitinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03926746959004831845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23951269.post-55164354156776527672009-08-01T18:27:00.000-07:002009-08-06T17:14:24.422-07:00July 2009Here is the month of July recap:<br /><br />July 4 weekend went and hung out with Debi and Luly and had a great time! Good friends, floating in the pool, chillin', and grilling out hamburgers and hot dogs. Sad part was, Drake had to go to work at 2pm - 11pm so he did not get to join me.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZvXfvJMmBy0bSxmax42aXrcKUl8KhCJIEAw60_3UwSeiGl2Svb6JDT1-GEBHzBdQ0uIZ2lojO6ifKrTbXaO9mud0m1q34wtadWVF3VcHFqI7CgxLoJF5XM_5FBIx78aDh0nFh/s1600-h/100_5671.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365172766144867922" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZvXfvJMmBy0bSxmax42aXrcKUl8KhCJIEAw60_3UwSeiGl2Svb6JDT1-GEBHzBdQ0uIZ2lojO6ifKrTbXaO9mud0m1q34wtadWVF3VcHFqI7CgxLoJF5XM_5FBIx78aDh0nFh/s320/100_5671.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP7jd7Zfyu7wjQcwNNIZCgqq1ed4InFMdMnwSkpaU5N9IZc5fE-7qiguD1UDQyPRg7iyYztcI1Jb_1iXD5NVSZkO0gRFzd_5eXMUF_4Xng7-zil5gRDH9p6eDS3srRwJkhptML/s1600-h/100_5676.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365172935697188850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP7jd7Zfyu7wjQcwNNIZCgqq1ed4InFMdMnwSkpaU5N9IZc5fE-7qiguD1UDQyPRg7iyYztcI1Jb_1iXD5NVSZkO0gRFzd_5eXMUF_4Xng7-zil5gRDH9p6eDS3srRwJkhptML/s320/100_5676.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrmDFfX89XntYxe0UM4YW5xLkgtMx-_UarNdUx7qPKp4BMiL1G3uR27fIHI8Wr2rFOb4aB73fJ2z34jRcBpIVbh5G68XjXp9-_jSfb4vdhjrMNH4H_-eOmaqF6Jv2VvgW2FJVp/s1600-h/100_5683.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365173112555854002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrmDFfX89XntYxe0UM4YW5xLkgtMx-_UarNdUx7qPKp4BMiL1G3uR27fIHI8Wr2rFOb4aB73fJ2z34jRcBpIVbh5G68XjXp9-_jSfb4vdhjrMNH4H_-eOmaqF6Jv2VvgW2FJVp/s320/100_5683.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4hqD-gR4nsdRxoXelK5i-XvWwtfKs3LBfNemG7OzhdRk2w7Y8eAzGPSNfoiwR0_i1AsmYionuaUa9pC0uh9QsHbnctxVOOGjmoLd5AwjG_A5fuFuQV3YxIkJwBzyF8GP919yd/s1600-h/100_5636.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365173369221900274" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4hqD-gR4nsdRxoXelK5i-XvWwtfKs3LBfNemG7OzhdRk2w7Y8eAzGPSNfoiwR0_i1AsmYionuaUa9pC0uh9QsHbnctxVOOGjmoLd5AwjG_A5fuFuQV3YxIkJwBzyF8GP919yd/s320/100_5636.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Drake and I got to spend July 6th together as I had a long weekend off from work.

Time goes by and as much as I review other blogs on a daily basis - I forget about my own. <br /><br />Life is good and can not complain. Would not help if I did. Just finished my Toastmasters meeting and I love it! I will be the VP of Membership for the next six months and I love the opportunity and challenge. Today was our first combined meeting at WellCare and we also had many new guests. The theme was New Beginnings and how true it is that each day we wake up is a new beginning. One speaker made the comment to try something new everyday - whether it be something different for lunch, a new attitude or joining a new club. The main point is we should make it FUN no matter what it is. Life goes by too quick and if all we do is complain about something, it will get us no where unless we act upon it. <br /><br />Drake and I are doing well. We still have some issues to work through, but every relationship has them. My goal and new beginning starting today is to spend the time working through my situations versus complaining about them and getting all worked up. <br /><br />I am down to 308 today and hope the scale continues to drop. My ultimate goal is to not gain it back and to continue changing my lifestyle and eating habits. That part will be with me forever. <br /><br />I also want to go back to school and get my degree in Health Services Administration. It is never too late to go back. I attended Ohio University for three years and just requested my transcript. I have not attended college since 1988, but it will not stop me from completing my degree. I might have to start from scrath. My theory is even if it takes me 4-5 years to complete, I will still need to work 20+ years before I can retire. Two goals - eat healthy and finish my degree so I can live to retire and have enough money to enjoy life.39andWaitinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03926746959004831845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23951269.post-2283218673772442462009-05-02T15:47:00.000-07:002009-05-02T16:13:31.639-07:00Time sure does fly!Here it is May 2nd already!

Yes, it is a new year and a good one. 2007 was a good year overall. I left my job at Aon after 7 years and have settled into WellCare 5 months now. It was a lot of mixed feelings, but I like where I am and the person I have become. My new job has brought travel with my job. I have been to CT, MI, PA and headed to WI this month. Drake was approved as a US Citizen and will have his ceremony on 1/9/08. This will open many opportunities for him. Drake will now be Mario Alexander Drake. Drake is transferring to the Bakery department and has plans to become manager by the end of 2008. We also plan to move to TN in the near future.

There are 3,500 people at my job and the campus is huge. Everyone is my department seems very nice and helpful. I feel I have made the correct move in leaving my job from Aon of 7 years. <br /><br />I have gone to an hourly position, first time in I can not remember, but it works! Drake and I did Weight Watchers this past week and weighed in on Saturday, 7/28. I lost 3.4 lbs. and Drake lost 3.6 lbs. our first week! We are both proud of ourselves and especially me with starting a new job AND WW! Drake has been using the BowFlex and I can already see his body changing. That is my goal for this week! <br /><br />We had a awesome weekend and have prepared ourselves for next week. I am so happy in many areas of my Life and proud of myself. I LOVE being 40 and finally... Living Life!39andWaitinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03926746959004831845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23951269.post-27162417241838632842007-07-21T08:46:00.000-07:002007-07-21T08:56:25.627-07:00Commitment Day ~ July 21, 2007It has been a while since I have blogged, but Life is good! I love being 40 and love where Life is taking me. <br /><br />Today Drake and I joined Weight Watchers (WW). It has been a long time since I have been committed to WW, but I feel so confident and excited to begin my new journey. We bought a Bowflex machine and I am so proud of Drake for putting it together. The timing could not have been better for our challenge. <br /><br />Below are before pictures that we took today to track our progress. <br /><br />Christine's beginning weight 303 lbs.

It is so easy to forget we have only one life to live on earth and we need all enjoy every moment. This past year has been incredible for me. I have started standing up for myself and believing in the ME! I have stood up to people in my life that I never thought I could. My confidence comes from therapy, self-esteem, weight loss (60 lbs.!), positive thinking, exercise, my family and being grateful for every breathe that I take!</span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">It is hard to believe it is August! Wow... time does fly when you are having fun. I love life and myself. I pray for my strength to continue to grow in this direction. I pray that I make the right decisions along my journey and when I feel myself stray off the road, I will steer myself back on the road. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Never stop believing!</span>39andWaitinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03926746959004831845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23951269.post-1152236188779593022006-07-06T18:28:00.000-07:002006-07-06T18:38:00.276-07:00Life is but a dream.....<strong><span style="font-size:130%;">Wow</span></strong>! had an exciting past 3 weeks.

Today was my first day back from vacation after spending 6 nights on St. Pete Beach with Carla and Michele. We had such a great time and it was very relaxing. Tomi and Annie get here on Thursday so it will be more entertainment next weekend as well. Enjoy it while it lasts!!<br /><br />I started Core today and did not do too bad. I ate 3 pts. today and I hope I do well. I have been at the same weight for almost 3 months. I have been doing the Elliptical for 7 weeks now consistantly. I am going to keep going and my weight loss will catch up soon.39andWaitinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03926746959004831845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23951269.post-1146436939828370852006-04-30T15:39:00.000-07:002006-04-30T15:42:45.923-07:00It finally happened!I was granted my divorce on Thursday, April 27! It is such a relief and a load off of my shoulders. The past 4.5 years has been a huge lesson and it has made me so strong as a person today. I am taking care of myself mentally and physically one day at a time. April has been a good month for me and viola, tomorrow is May 1!<br /><br />Breathe deep and live life to it's fullest. Thank you Lord for all you have given me.

I just read my last post and it was from 4/8. Life is treating me well. I have a new room mate Toni renting out my sun room for a few weeks so she can get on her feet. It was ironic, because I was in that same position 12 years ago when I first came to FL. Destiny is also staying with me until she gets her Independent Living status and can get her own apartment. I love having people around and also ones I don't have to take care of. That is definitely different for me.<br /><br />My weight loss is yo-yoing. I lost 4 lbs. two weeks ago and gained 2.6 lbs. this past week. I have been doing really well and hoping I am retaining water with that last gain. I can not stress over the watching the scale, because this is my lifestyle change for the rest of my life.<br /><br />Work is going well. Our new girl Nancy starts Wednesday and hope everything works out as planned. We really need to balance our team. I plan to stay as simple as possible dealing with work and life. Be grateful for each day and live life to its fullest. I am very blessed and I have my faith.<br /><br />Here is a recent picture. I love this blouse I bought for my birthday. It is magical... I get so many compliments when I wear it.39andWaitinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03926746959004831845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23951269.post-1144525222640159162006-04-08T12:36:00.000-07:002006-04-08T12:40:22.663-07:00Staying focusedI can not believe it is April 8th already right now! I have been back to work three weeks and have to say last week was my best one. We have finally got control over the jobs at work and everyone is back in their place. I weighed-in today and lost 1 lb. and I am excited! I have been working on staying focused on my weight loss and getting back into routine. I have to keep up this pace. Get back into routine with activity. Gotta take it slow because I have a bulging disc I found out about this week. It will be okay and as I continue to lose weight and exercise, it will get stronger.<br /><br />I will try not to stay away for as long this time.39andWaitinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03926746959004831845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23951269.post-1143724104152615792006-03-30T05:06:00.000-08:002006-03-30T05:09:35.320-08:00New Clothes<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4738/2480/1600/size%2024_2.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4738/2480/320/size%2024_2.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4738/2480/1600/size%2024.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4738/2480/320/size%2024.jpg" border="0" /></a>39andWaitinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03926746959004831845noreply@blogger.com0
