Wow, all I can say is I am impressed. The fact that Craig would spend time on the blog is a miracle! He is so sweet and thoughtful, the fact that he put up a post about me is not only why I love this guy so much. He really did all he could to make me feel so special ALL last week (well he always does) but it was so sweet and I loved it. I do have to add that he embellished my accomplishments some... ha But it was a great week last week and a BIG THANKS to all of my family and friends who have shown so much love and support.
Anyways, I am so grateful to be DONE. I will miss all my good friends though from school, it will be sad not to see them all the time. It is crazy actually having nights with Craig and not having some assignment! The part that is hard is that graduation was such a busy time and then I continued right into a full time job. I am so blessed to have a good job and a great boss, don't get me wrong, but it has been a hard transition. I honestly felt like I had more time when I was in school surprisingly!! I had my little schedule for working out down and making dinner, now I come home, almost die trying to jog in the heat and quickly try to whip some food up for us for dinner or I steal some over at my mom's. I am really going to have to learn how to get up earlier, work out, get ready for work quicker and then I can enjoy the evenings.
How does everyone else fit it all in?
Also - I need more good workout songs, I am kind of sick of mine but gotta have my pump up music to keep me going! I love my Justin, Mase, some RB stuff, but do you guys have some great tunes that keep you going (that aren't nasty or suggestive)? THANKS!

you should check out Ratatat, we just started getting into them. No lyrics, just good beats.
Try Dixie Chicks "Ready to Run"...haha.
You feel busy now...wait till you have kids!! HA! No really it is a busy time.....I think go to bed early and wake up and run in the cool? Or get a exercise machine? Or workout videos?
I hate/love the Az heat.....congrats on graduating...did you send out the pics?
Craig your doing a great job on posting blogs. chris Says hi to everyone and cant wait to get back home. Oh and tell melissa that we are so proud of her being able to accomplish so much and still look great!
Yea for Melissa! You deserve big roses and beautiful tributes! You are one smart chick, too! I like to work out to Pat Benetar. I actually have quite the playlist! I will email it to you if you want it. Just let me know!
So my favorite new songs are Celine Dion's "Taking Chances" and Sarah Barrielles "love song." I do like different music to work out to, but at least they are some good songs. By the way, I am so proud of you and all your accomplishments. You have worked so hard and all those chats of hard school are over!! Welcome to the world of work now! I love you and Craig...right on on the post of melis. I seriously was tearing up over here .
Melis I am so proud of you! You are a terrific example to me. I must say becuase I only work part time and even though I have my little Emerson I was def WAY busier in school too. I've been feeling a little lazy latly I think I need to take up a hobby or something. and P.S. my favorite post ever is the one from Craig not only did he write such nice things but he put a sufficient number of pictures (hint, hint :-)
Hey girl we HAVE to get together soon me and Katie K. are kind of freakin out about this job. It's pretty lame so far so we were hoping you could give us some pointers. : ) I'll call you soon.
Okay, you might think this is a lame song, but I totally love it. "Africa", by Toto from the 80s, I don't know what it is about it because the words don't even make sense but it pumps me up every time the chorus comes around!
I LOVE to run to Evanescence Fallen. There's a couple good songs on there that have a strong beat. I usually have them at the end of my run and it keeps me going. I wouldn't have thought to pick them to run to, but Ryan happened to put them on my MP3 player and I wound up buying the CD for the car as well!
And I'll tell you what everyone else tells me (and what I try to tell myself) about fitting it all in - this coming from the woman who is only 2 weeks into an 8 week Microbiology class - who is burned out having not taken even one summer off of school in 2 years - who feels like she'll NEVER, EVER actually graduate from nursing school - who is mentally, physically, emotionally tired - who feels like she doesn't spend enough *fun* time with her kids or husband --- Just take it one day at a time.
Each day is a new beginning, don't hound yourself for what you didn't do yesterday. One day at a time. You can do it!
Congrats on your graduation, it is a great, great, great accomplishment!
Your GA in-law cousin,
Becky
Hey girl! Loved the posts. I am still trying to catch up with you to take you out. I think this is quickly becoming the longest game of phone tag I've ever had.
