the weekend so far

So, this weekend has been pretty good so far although it did not start out so hot. Friday morning I forgot my laptop and Dave was sweet enough to call me and say he would bring it to his work. I went to his work and picked up my laptop. The thing that sucked is that I was then late for work, or later then I wanted to be to work. Then my day started out with nothing and ended with a lot and I was irritated at the work that I was getting. This work to me seems MINDLESS. My brain is used for 15 minutes of figuring out what is necessary and then it's a mindless copy and pasting process. Dave as a material's engineer has lab people to carry out his tests, but I'm the one doing all my bullshit mindless crap. Anyway, at least I was busy which is good, but I was irritated when I came home. Really irritated. I still called Amy though, and I'm glad that I did because I had a lot of fun talking and hanging out with her at the Black Bottle. I had not been there before and it was so good!! We each had 2 glasses of wine and split some flat bread which was delicious! We didn't stay out late, probably only until like 9 pm, but it was a ton of fun! Today I woke up and ate breakfast with dave, and then I went to the gym. It was hard to be motivated to work out, but I feel good (although really sore) and happy that I did make myself go to the gym. I'm debating whether I should spend money on a personal trainer or trying weight watchers, maybe both, who knows...... I'm trying to get healthy and in shape, but it would not hurt to lose some weight, weight watchers would probably help get that done. Today should be fun, I'm going to see Danielle in a bit probably, and then going out for a girl's night because Steph's friend is visiting from law school. Definitely a busy weekend. Dave and I are planning on looking at condos tomorrow, and then maybe I will do a bit of reading for my book club. I like being busy and having relaxing time! :)

Workouts so far this week

Sunday Morning - Gym workout (cardio, weights, and abs)
Wed. night - gym in building ( cardio and some weights)

engaged and Workout plan

So.... I have not posted in this blog in awhile and a lot has changed. As of 12/8/07 I am engaged!! I am really happy to be engaged to Dave! He completely surprised me when he proposed! It was the weekend of our 3 year anniversary and he made me promise to hang out with him that saturday because it was supposed to be a beautiful day. We made reservations at cutters by the market and walked down to the restaurant. After lunch we decided to go for a nice walk and he all of sudden stopped by the water and started saying really sweet words to me and I just said aww thanks and I really didn't know what was going on until he pulled out the ring and got on one knee. I started crying after I called my mom, and went home to charge my phone and call friends and family. that night we went and found the tile by the space needle that said "Amanda will you marry me dave?" It was fate that dave found that tile in a book titled "seattle proposal ideas". It was a nice day.

After that we went on an amazing vacation to israel and prague.

Now, I think I might try and use this as a log of workouts to try and get motivated.
