An Update!

So, I've given some thought to closing down the old blog lately. It seems a lot of us out here haven't been doing much updating! But then this week, two of my friends told me they miss knowing what's going on with me, and I realized I miss seeing pictures and hearing lengthier updates about them too! So here's a big, long update about what's been going on with me the last month:

1. Work has been wild. My job has changed a lot this year so that I'm doing the development and most of the marketing of our season here. I have been really busy getting ready for our first show of the season, which open last week. I'm thrilled to share that it was a huge financial and artistic success, and that took a huge weight off my shoulders. Things should calm down just a bit for the next few months, but I'm excited to see what the rest of the year holds.
2. My weight loss journey has reached the maintenance phase. Since January of this year, I've lost over 35lbs! I've tried to make good, permanent changes to my diet, but I still have to make a concerted effort every day to choose healthy foods and not overeat. Or almost every day! The weight loss journey has taken a while, but I'm so much happier with my body and the way I look than I was a year ago at this time. Next year, my goal is to try some new things and commit myself to an exercise regimen that I will actually enjoy and stick to!
3. Hard to believe that we moved into our house almost a year ago! And Bryan has only two classes left until he finishes his MBA! I'm so proud of him for his commitment to school. The graduation celebration is already being planned.

And those are all the major updates! I'm really looking forward to the holidays this year. We're hosting Thanksgiving, so I'm sure that will give me plenty to blog about. Thanks for reading!
