Where've I been???

Sorry, everyone. Just wanted to say that I'm alive, and for the most part, well! It's been over 2 weeks with me neglecting this blog and I apologize. There happens to be a lot going on in my life right now that seems to pull me in other directions. For instance, school! I'm enrolled full time into a local college (going for Communications in Technology, by the way) and I just completed my first week. Prior to school starting, the week before was equally busy since I'd had to arrange everything to make sure I was enrolled as a full time student, in time. This was an arduous task that kept me up nights. See, I'd signed up VERY late and there was the chance I might not get in at all! But thankfully, everything eventually worked out, though it was practically the Friday before school began when I'd finally crossed my last T and dotted my last i.

I am, however, a returning college student. This would not have been possible if it had not been for the Resveratrol discovery and Christian's diet. Thank you, thank you! And I have to assert that I've been very strict about taking the pills and eating appropriately. I have to also note, that one day, a couple weekends ago, I cheated on the diet and ate a bunch of chicken! I pigged out in a gluttonous feast! (This was due to the fact that there was a party at the house and this tempting food was everywhere!! I couldn't resist.) Then the next day, I had some friends over who are excellent chefs and they whipped up this amazing dinner that was Glutamate loaded and I'd decided to test. Well, the test failed the next day. I felt like "crappola"!

The good news was the little test, reaffirmed in me that I am on a good diet. It also is a really nice treat to be loosing weight along the way. I'm down to 195. Dagnabit! I was down to 193 prior to that smorgasbord weekend, but the over indulgence actually made me gain two pounds. I also haven't had time to walk like I was before. Gotta do that. Walking is so healthy physically and mentally, as well.

So, I'd better go. School books are calling and their "louder" than a nest of hungry birds! I was starting to feel a little overwhelmed by taking 5 classes, so I cut down to 4 which is still full time. I did this due to the fact that I'm also currently enrolled, as I've said before, in the Institute of Children's Literature course online, which is a 6 credit course that takes about a year and a 1/2 to complete. Then, on top of that, is a non-credited course load for Entrepreneurship at the college. It takes place every Tuesday night for a number of weeks. FULL SCHEDULE!!!

There are a few other things going on as well, externally which are affecting me internally, but I will have to get into it at another time.

And to those of you who've been trying to contact me, I apologize if I haven't gotten back to you recently. Things will begin to settle for me once I'm more comfortable with this new life style. Thanks for checking back though!

The saga continues...
