My (Blog) Coming Out.

Hello!

In the spirit of rapid and changing technology, creativity, communication, creative writing and inspiration, I have decided to create a blog. My roommates Jackie and Naomi already have one, and Naomi is always updating hers with things that have occurred in her life or things that she simply enjoys and finds inspiring.

Although I am really enjoying my new job and, particularly after reading the news with Naomi this morning and hearing that the CA unemployment rate is at 11%, am grateful for steady employment without risk of being laid off...my new position of Pricing Coordinator is heavy on the numbers and light on the words and writing. So this new blog is my way of continuing to write and hold myself accountable to expression of thought. Can't really express who I am through a spreadsheet or database, unfortunately. Thus, in the spirit of avoiding atrophy of my writing skills, blogging it is!

I have to say that the company I am working for, Product Partners/Beach Body, is inspiring as well. There is genuine encouragement seen on every blank wall in the entire office through pictures of people whose lives have been absolutely transformed by one of Beach Body's programs. As a perk of being a new employee, I got to choose a fitness program for free. Sweet! I don't know if you have heard of P90X - but I am excited to start this 90-day challenge and fitness program. The before and after pictures are pretty astounding for so many people, and I figure it could be a refreshing way to workout for the next three months. Once Jackie gets back from Australia, the three of us roommates are going to start doing the program together. It's good to have people to hold you accountable, as well as being quite motivating.

I too, will have to put together some before and after pictures. Only to be released if the results are everything we have dreamed of and more...
:)



Welp, Naomi and I are off to check out the Fairfax Flea Market this fine Sunday...


We've heard good things and we are both looking for some good finds. Not sure what in particular...we're in need of an area rug, cool wall art, fabric for a wingback chair we are going to upholster, etc. There will be more to come as our crafts and projects unfold. And the market has cool vintage clothing. I'm such a sucker!
