Weigh In - 8/25/06
So I’ve finally gotten back on track with my diet… I’ve lost 2 pounds for a total of 28 pounds lost since the beginning of this diet. I’ve been fluctuating between my last weigh-in and three pounds above for the last couple of months. Last week I finally got back down to my last weigh-in and stayed there. This week I went down two more pounds. I have not been able to get back into working out as of yet. But the last couple of weeks I’ve been really sticking to my diet.
This week has been an emotional rollercoaster. I’m tired of constantly battling my emotions and keeping my attitude positive, but it’s the life that I have right now. I found out Monday that I don’t have all the required units to start the Bachelor’s program at Azusa Pacific this time around. That’s a bit disappointing. So I have to figure out how to get the classes I need and get them done this year and try to get into the program next year.
I had two interviews Wednesday and the first one for San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools in Apple Valley was the one I really wanted and I didn’t feel the interview went that well. So the other one down in Colton for the Rialto School District went a lot better but again, none of my references got a call yesterday so I’m guessing I didn’t get that one either. It’s very discouraging to go through all these interviews and not get anything. I keep questioning what I’m doing wrong. In the end I have to realize there is more to it then just having a good interview and so I’ve just got to trust in God. I know He has a plan for me.
So my goal today is to get the kitchen straightened up. I have two card tables of knickknacks that I need to put away since I’ve pretty much figured out what is going where and those are just leftovers.
Tomorrow I’m going over to my friend Rachel’s to see the new place all set up. I’m looking forward to it.
*Updated*
I am almost done with my knickknacks in the kitchen. I pretty much have the house ready enough for my birthday BBQ planned for next weekend. My dining room has nothing on the walls but otherwise is done. I have one wall in the living room that’s quite bare but nothing that I currently have seems to work there so I will leave it bare.
I was called today for two more interviews. One for Aflac (yes the one with the funny duck commercials), apparently they saw my resume online and want me to come in for an informational interview. I’m not exactly sure what that means, I kind of feel like its going to be a sales pitch or something. But then again they are opening an office in Victorville and it may very well be something I would be interested in. So we’ll see Monday. Then just a few moments ago I got another call from the Rialto School District for another interview for the District Office. Monday is going to be a busy day. I have the interview down the hill for Rialto at 11:00 am and then the interview for Aflac at 1:30 pm in Victorville, and then at 2:30 I get to go to my sister’s school and see her work and take some pictures for her.
Being busy is probably going to be the only thing that will help me get out of my funk. I’ve been pretty down the last couple of days, pretty much since the interviews on Wednesday. I’ve been trying to fight the discouragement but it’s hard. I could use some prayer that I will fight the lies of the enemy. The feeling of worthlessness is affecting every aspect of my life. I’m trying to fight it, but it can be so overwhelming that it knocks me down. Pretty much this morning it knocked me down and it took a while to get back up from that. I am doing so much better. My mom prayed for me and I had encouragement from Sam. Shortly after I gave it up I got the calls for the interviews, ironic how that always seems to be the case.
Anyways, that’s all for now.
