POOL PARTY!


This past Sunday my friend Kathy invited me to her pool for a BBQ. She doesn't attend the church I do, but she said I could bring some of the youth from our church. We all had an awesome, awesome time!!!



As you can see, the boys enjoyed the pool so very much! They loved the water slide and they loved jumping off the rocks into the water.
For some of them it was their first time to try a water slide. I even tried it...but I sure ain't posting any pictures of that..ha ha ha
We really had fun!!! And it was so super gracious of Kathy to invite all of us over. The BBQ was off the hook!! Kathy and her family enjoyed the day just as much and invited us back next Sunday..Thanks again Kathy!!!! I am soooo looking forward to next Sunday!!

Buh Bye Fattie, fattie 2 by 4!

The final weigh in for the Body Success Challenge was this Sunday. I must say I felt a lot more confident in my shorts and tank top then I felt when the initial "BEFORE" picture was taken and I jetted as fast as I could from the little dressing room straight into the aerobics room where the pictures were being taken hoping no one would see me : )

Well, the results (drum roll please)

I dropped 20.5 lbs...5 inches off my waist and one inch off my thighs and an inch off my calf...

Not bad! My goal was 30lbs, but I'm really happy with my results and even though the contest is over, I'm not done yet...I hope to drop another 20 before my next B-day.

I don't know if I won any of the prizes yet..the winners will be announced next weekend..but my family thinks I'm a winner already and thet's all that really matters
:)~

How did the rest of you do? Do tell!

Update

I haven't been blogging much lately...Work for one has been keeping me really busy! We are almost done with the Gov. Group Life open enrollment. If your a Gov. employee and you haven't enrolled yet, you better get to it..you only have till Sept. 30. After that you will be subject to medical underwriting and the rates for the optional coverages will go up.

Another reason I don't have much to blog about is that things have just gotten so depressing...I have another $900 plus power bill and I just can't understand why..With power out most of the day and night you would think it would go down...but no such luck.

The whole situation with the Marine Monument is depressing too! I watched the news last night and was so disappointed and disgusted!!! I wanted to scream! Do these people have a clue????? How long does or will it take them to figure out that we WANT...we NEED to protect our oceans!!! I'm mad at myself because I actually voted for one of them...thinking that he would be diffrent..he would stand up for what is right...but nooooooooooo, I was wrong! He will never get my vote ever again!

On the brighter side, Ive been doing a lot of work with our church and the youth and Im really enjoying it...we have a big 10th anniversary coming up and we will celebrate it with a Harvest carnival for the community. Im excited and it looks like our prayers may be answered and our church will be painted before that all goes down. We have been busy cleaning the property and planting trees...I will post some pictures soon.

The end of the Body Success Challenge aka Saipan's Biggest Looser is this Sunday..the final weigh in...I don't think I won, actually I have no clue how many pounds I dropped the last 3 months...I know I dropped some, and I have definitely learned to eat much healthier so I have accomplished my goals. I haven't weighed myself since the initial weigh in, but I would estimate I have dropped a good 15 lbs...about half of my goal...I can't wait till Sunday to find out...I will let you all know how I did...win or loose, it was worth it just to start eating healthier.

Well, thats the update for now...sorry no pictures but my laptop is full and I can't download for now...

Have a hopefully cool and bright evening!

LOOKING FOR PAINT

No, I'm not the "WAX" grafitti artist that's been hitting up Joeten and Ebisuya's walls.

Our church really, really, really needs to be painted so we are looking for anyone who has excess paint (exterior) that they may want to donate or sell for a discounted
price.

We have a little which was donated by a kind fellow in Kagman, but we need quite a bit more.

Please, please, please let me know if you can assist!

Thanks!
