Life

So here's what's going on in life lately...
We're loving the new gym! Jonathan has got a few new clients already just from our sign shakers we hired & just from expanding & living social deals we did. I have a bunch of spray tan clients which I try to just get in before or after work or during my lunch break, so some days are quite busy! But I at least always have to get sprayed myself once a week so I can be a walking advertisement ;) So yeah we're staying super busy with that. In the meantime Jonathan is also studying to take his test to become a loan originator & process loans with his dad's new business venture. I guess it's a REALLY hard test, and only half the people who take it pass the first time around, so it's kind of intense & just adding more busyness to Jonathan's schedule. I just can't wait to get over & only have to work at the gym with Jonathan so I can see him more & not deal with my stupid job! On Monday since I didn't have to work, it being memorial day & all.... I got to train my first 3 clients in the morning! It was great & really boosted my confidence in switching gears to actual work at the gym hopefully one day soon. (By the way if you didn't know, I passed my certification test so I am legitimately a personal trainer!) It was awesome though! I invested in some kickboxing gear to use with the clients & gave them a little twist to their normal workouts with Jonathan by adding some kickboxing drills. Man I've missed kickboxing! It made the workouts with them really fun, & surprising how fast the sessions go by! It'll be a great day when I can just train a few people, do a few spray tans, & be able to call that my job!
My job has basically been hell lately. I pretty much cry about it at least 3 times a week. They've expanded there sales locations by adding two new ones & with each one it doubles my work. So basically I have a full time job that really should be 3 full time jobs (granted my pay is the same...) all on my plate with a million people telling me what to do and in the process contradicting themselves, then somehow I get the blame for things that aren't done right or in time (keep in mind I have 40 hours to get at least 120hours worth of work done!) & I just get to be the cop-out for everyone. Yeah, pretty much I just hate it lately. I've become bitter, grumpy, stressed & just irritated. I've started trying to be more assertive & sticking up for myself as I've developed an "I really don't give a crap" attitude about most of the stuff that happens at work, but at the end of the day I'm still a push-over & put on my nice face on cause I'm too chicken.
Basically the only thing that has been keeping me at this job for the past month has been the possibility of getting another house. Due to the fact that I'd be the one qualifying for it, I need to keep my job. We should find out soon if it's really going to be able to happen or not, so then I will be able to plan & move forward with my life!! It's been a crazy, frustrating, stressful ride, but in the end, if we do end up getting this other house it'll be worth it. If it turns out we won't be able to get it, then I get to quit so it's a win win really!
In other news... our friends Zach & Kelsey just moved into their new home in Nampa, its awesome & I'm so happy for them!
Our good friends Ashley & Garrett Hanselman in Utah just found out their gonna be parents in January so I'm SUPER excited for them!!
Connor has turned 18, won the state championship game in 4A soccer with his high school team, graduated high school AND just went in for his knee surgery today! He's got so much going on it's crazy! And I couldn't be happier that in the fall he'll be closer to us, going to BYU!!
We're only 5 weeks away from our Orlando trip (but who's counting anyways....)
Avery REMEMBERS me! She pointed to a picture I was in and said "Key!" So now I won't have to win over her love again when I see her :)
And there's going to be 3 chick-fil-a's here in the Boise area by the end of this year, HOLLA!
Well, that's all I can think of at the moment. But I just wanted to take a minute to write down the deets of whats going on in this crazy life. That way in a few years I can read back on my blog book & remember everything we were up to at this point in our lives!
Life is good, I just need to remember that. I am blessed, I have the best family, an amazing hardworking husband, the greatest supportive friends, a beautiful home, cars to drive, a job that makes me some money (even when I resent it!), and we are healthy, & happy!
