That means only 9 more weeks 'til I see James!
But this week was hard. Hopefully it'll only get better from here.
I let the apartment get into disarray. And then Saturday (my usual chores & cleaning day), I didn't get anything done (went to Manti with friends all morning and played games with James all night), so things just felt off.
Today after church I set out to clean the apartment and organize it. It feels so much better.
And for lunch I had another delish fruit salad and a turkey sandwich with tomatoes, lettuce, mushroom and apple slices. MMmmm . . . sometimes I'm so healthy, it makes me sick. Haha.
I'm trying to make up for Friday and especially Saturday. Yesterday I didn't track my calories at all. We stopped at a McDonald's and I actually got a sausage egg mcmuffin. Bad, Nancy. And the rest of the day went down hill from there :)
I went with our married friends, Krista and Taylor, and their friend Suzie down to the Manti Temple. It is a very gorgeous temple. I had a very enjoyable time. It would have been nice to have James there. But he was in the Temple in San Diego. Precious, I know :)
I went running every day this last week. At 6am! Wow . . I'm so proud of myself! Hopefully I'll make team so I don't have to do that again! By Friday, it was a real struggle to get out of bed. But I did. Aerobics classes start this week, so I will be able to have variety again. Yay variety.
I have such an awesome ward. This summer is the reason we moved in. It's so there would be an awesome ward to take care of me. I feel so loved and looked out for. I don't think any other ward would treat me the same as this ward has.
Salad I made for dinner tonight. Aren't I simply amazing?? :D
See how much shorter the chain is already? (yes, it is longer on the other side because it didn't like staying up)
Yay for the first week done and gone! 9 more!

Hang in there! Xan and I were apart for 2 months when Iceland wouldn't let me stay. Distractions were the biggest help for me. I went out and did all the stuff that Xan doesn't enjoy doing and had a blast! Like girl's nights, meeting up with my old friends from my before Xan days, sitting around with my female family members chit chatting about women's stuff, watching Bollywood. Good luck!
I think we need a lady's lunch sometime with everyone. I love our ward too! I MISS IT! I love the singles ward but I miss you guys so much!
Thanks for being such a great example of exercising and eating healthy. I'm trying too, and I've lost 10 so far! Only 30 more to go!
Love your chain. ;)
Hey Nancy--how in the world do we have so many mutual friends?
Ashley and Xan lived in the foreign language housing and are good friends--have been for years.
And I knew Taylor from a class when we realized he was dating my roommate Krista--both good friends.
I'm glad you have such awesome friends as support this summer while James is away. Tell them hi for me. :)
