Less Irritated

Good news... my skin is finally getting back to normal. Every once in a while I'll start to itch and my skin feels like I have a ton of mosquito bites! You all know what that feels like. Well, after much TLC to my skin, I am finally starting to feel less itchy and more normal. Praise God!

I'm still adding to the PRBC web site. It is definitely taking up most of my work hours (and then some). I also have to finish the new church photo directory. So much to do, so little time! I am ready to have that church directory done! We have been working on this all year! It should have been done ages ago, but bad weather in February messed everything up. Oh well, I'll be a lot happier once it's done and over with.

This is Dan's last week of classes. He'll have a very busy summer ahead of him, but it'll be a good one too! He'll be staying with a work friend during the week and most likely crashing at my parents' house on the weekends.

Kathleen is coming home at the end of May! Her and I have already started making summer plans. We know that we won't be able to do everything that we want, but we'll try to do as much as possible. I can't wait!

I Am Appreciated

As I wrapped up work this past Thursday (alone in the office) I was surprised to find that the delivery Pastor Scott had me waiting for was a lovey bouquet of flowers from him and Will! It was a kind gesture to let me know how much they appreciate my work. Thanks guys!

Friday, Dan and I hit the mall after dinner. Haven't gone shopping in a long time... and I still didn't buy myself anything. I need new jeans, so I'll return once I get another paycheck. Saturday, my mom and I went to pick up a birthday cake for my Uncle Ron's birthday. My dad ordered a dressel's cake (in honor of their childhood). Later I went downtown to catch some of Shannon's bridal party. After that I drove home and went with my family to celebrate my Uncle Ron's birthday! It was a fun evening! After dinner and birthday cake Dan and I played Catch Phrase with my cousin Jess and her boyfriend Andrew. We laughed so hard... it was a great time! Sunday, went to church and then Dan and I ran some errands. I picked up some supplies for when I teach Jr. Church on Mother's Day. We're going to grow some flowers!

Oh, I also had my weigh in on Saturday. I lost 2 more pounds! Whew! I'm so excited! Honestly, this isn't the easiest thing in the world, but the results are keeping me motivated. Plus, summer is right around the corner and I want to be beach ready!

Today the weather is blah. Oh well, April showers bring May flowers! I'm ready for summer. Well, almost ready. A couple more weeks at this diet and I should be all set. Come June I'll be all set!

Feeling Better

Today I my skin is feeling less irritated. Praise God! I have been so uncomfortable these past couple of days, but at least the stuff that I've been using to treat my skin seems to be helping.

In other good news, the church finally has a working laser printer! I just finished the bulletin for this Sunday. It has been a long time since I've gotten it done this fast! Now I can get back to work on other projects! Not having a fast working printer has really slowed me down... as well as everyone else in the office.

I'm kinda nervous for my weigh in on Saturday. Because of my skin irritation I haven't been able to really work out. Every time I would start to really sweat my skin would get much worse. So I've been trying to eat a little lighter and do some light exercise. Oh well, we'll see.

I've Got An Itch

Ok, something isn't right. It started on my legs and now my whole body itches! I have no idea what has caused my skin to get to irritated. Yesterday my mom and I went to Walgreen's to pick up some stuff to heal and protect my skin. It's too soon to tell if it's working or not. Although, I seem to have my itching under control, so that's a plus. The thing that annoys me the most is the fact that I don't know how this happened. I am suspicious of the gym and my work out pants... but who knows! Better this happens now than over the summer.

Kovalicious

I finally used up my free pass for the gym... now I'm on my own! No worries, I got a lot of use out of it. I even hit the gym twice yesterday (since it was my last day to use the free pass)! I went once in the afternoon by myself and then again in the evening with Nora. I spent about 4 hours at the gym! Whew! Well, it may be harder to burn extra calories outside the gym, but I'm up for the challenge! Now that the weather is nicer I plan on rollerblading, riding my bike, and doing other activities outside. As long as I stick to my diet I'm sure that I can still lose the extra pounds that have been keeping me warm all winter. I'll be more then hott this summer... I'm kovalicious!

Today Anthony and I are continuing our work on the church's new web site! It is so nice to finally have all of our efforts on display... we have been working on this since September! So far we have the basic information up, sometime today we should have more details available for guests and regular attenders. Check it out for yourself...

Parker Road Bible Church

"Caifornia... here we come!"

Ok, think of the song "California" by Phantom Planet (a.k.a. The OC theme song) while I share the news that Dan's parents have decided to move to California! Thank you to everyone who prayed for them! They'll be moving out there next month. There is also a very good chance that they'll be relocated to Chicago in about 2 years... so that would be amazing! That's what they really want. We'll be praying that it does.

So I worked out a lot last week and really didn't lose any weight... however, I must also report that my clothes are starting to fit better, so that's a plus! It's just a bummer to work hard all week and see very little results on the scale. Oh well, I've hit a wall, but this week I should make up for it. Every contestant on Biggest Loser would hit a wall from time to time, but the following week they would always lose a lot more weight. I'm not too worried. I'll be hitting the gym again today (possibly twice, we'll see).

Not much happened over the weekend. Dan had a project to work on so he didn't come over until late afternoon on Saturday. Sunday's weather was amazing!! So we took advantage of it and played some tennis and went for a nice walk. Not much else happened, but it was still a nice weekend.

A Good Day

Wow, I find it very hard to believe, but it's true! I just ran the bulletin on time and without any technical errors. I can't remember the last time things went so smooth! Praise God!

Anthony came by today and we worked on the new web site. It's still under massive construction, but it has come a long way! Check it out!
