Bit of Exciting News

Well, today at work I had some pretty cool news come up. I got pulled away from work by my boss and I immediately thought "Oh no, what have I done now?" Ha, but it was good news! He asked me if I wanted to stay on and work on another project for the company! Well, of course, this made me extremely happy. I told him that I would, for sure, be interested in staying.
Then, I find out that I'm the only temp staying with the permanent employees. Wow, not going to lie, that makes me feel really good. It's definitely an encouragement to see that my butt-busting, hard work is finally paying off. Hopefully it will continue!
I also found out that there's a full-time, permanent position coming available within a couple weeks. And so, hopefully, I will be considered for that! It's a very difficult thing to get into the full-time positions, just because the company is small - so it will take a lot more butt-busting to get in there! But, with a little confidence (more like a ton of confidence) and hard work, I believe I can do it! And, apparently, a couple of people at work think I can too so that makes me feel really good.
Needless to say, my coworkers totally made my day! Hugs and kudos to all of them!

Well, the last couple weeks have been strenuous with my car. Thankfully, it's now working better and will, hopefully, keep working until I can get something different. Otherwise, I have no idea what I'd do...

Well, a little bit more good news! (See how I do this? Put bad stuff in between the good - trying to balance it out?) I have been losing weight - which I have been trying to do for so long now! I decided that I wouldn't put so much stress on myself to lose weight this year. A lot of times, I find myself stressing about losing weight and being "perfect" and it never happens when you're trying to be a "perfect" weight or anything. So, I decided I would just eat better and such and see what happens. As it turns out, I have lost 15 pounds so far this year! And, for me, that's a major accomplishment! And I'm hoping to continue to lose more weight! The working full-time and eating better has definitely helped. I've also been almost three months without a soda....which hasn't been easy, but it's also better for me in the long run!
