AMDB: A Married Diva's Blog: My Latest Obsessions

Here I am sitting in a hotel in Newton, TX once again for the 6th night in 1 1/2 week and I can't help but think that small town life is DEFINITELY not for me. The last few weeks at work have been jam packed with challenges and now I am going to have to play major catch-up...YUCK! I left my house last Monday for a "2 day" job and didn't return home until Saturday at 10 pm. Now I am back out in the field for some more excitement, which hopefully will not take as long this time. Long dirty days in the field are my least favorite part of my job, but at least it makes the week go by quickly...so much for a boring desk job!!!

While out in the field, though, I had lots of time to contemplate about what I needed in my day-to-day life at the moment and also to catch up on some much needed game time...(I successfully beat my high score on Bejeweled 6 different times, before realizing that I had probably just given myself carpal tunnel from playing games on my iPhone for 8 hours straight. )

In other news I decided that being dirty doing field work and spending a week on a job where I am surrounded by boys was really depriving me of "girl time". I mean, I just spent the last 5 years living with only girls, 2 years of which I lived in a sorority house with 50 other girls. I miss the drama! I miss the gossip! I miss the boy talk and watching SYTYCD and borrowing clothes from others' closets!!!! So to remedy this, I have joined the sales team of Scentsy! They are a company that sells wickless candles in all shapes and sizes. I recently bought 2 of them and fell in love with the design and scent. I mean, anything that can make my whole house smell like vanilla in only 30 minutes is a winner in my book! I can't wait to get started with my sales and am starting to plan my first party. Bring on the girl talk!! If you want to check out my products, go to https://amdb.scentsy.us/Home

Also, now that I have found a solution to one problem with my job - having no girl friends to talk to all day - I am working on fixing the other one. That would be the lack of exercise that I receive sitting in front of a computer for 9 hours a day. I have put on about 10 pounds in 1 year!! Whoever said the "Freshmen 15" was bad never experienced the "Vendor Lunch". I recently found a fitness tape by the same guy who made the P90X. It is basically the P90X for dummies, or in my case, for the super out of shape and getting fatter by the minute people in the world. It is called 10 minute trainer and it is kicking my butt!! I have spent the last 5 days hobbled over and cringing from soreness thanks to the exercises the night before. I am supposed to see results within a month, though, so I will let you know how it goes!
