Time to ramble......

Oh, wow, I just love being Secretary of the Board. I now know things will be done the right way.

I'm kicking butts and taking names, hee hee


I've been so busy between work and the Board. My neighbor and I cleaned out the clubhouse offices which were once used by management companies (and currently as storage). Maybe we can get the management company to use the offices once again, this would get rid of the rent fee!


I have to find a way to get a little more organized, I truly miss blogging.

Oh, I attended a workshop today and the presenter thought I was 28 years old, how awesome is that? I'm 32, so being told I look 4 years younger is just so invigorating. I started wearing eye makeup again. I need to get back to that "feeling good about myself" place. I need to feel that I still got it. That motivation alone just makes me feel so good. I used to be able to walk into a room and feel that I was the hottest, smartest, sexiest, most irresistible person in the room. I lost that for a bit, but now I GOT IT BACK!!!!!! It works, try it. Walk into a room and say it to yourself, you'll believe it and so will everyone else.

I also believe....

• Age is just a number
• Age doesn't always go hand in hand with maturity or experience
• Each event in my life is a learning moment
• Everything happens for a reason, sometimes the reason isn't clear until years later
  

Now that I've rambled on and on. What do you think or believe?

NEW BOARD!!!!

Three of the people we campaigned for got on the board. Two old members are still on, but suddenly complient and with us in making changes, hmmmmm!

I'm the Secretary, my two neighbors are the President and Vice President.

I'll post more about this tomorrow!!!!!!

TONIGHTS THE NIGHT!!!!!

In about a hour an hour, I'll be going up to the meeting. I'm excited but nervous, not sure what to expect.

Oh I'm so nervous.

WISH ME LUCK!!!!!!!!!!

Annual Meeting On Wednesday

OH BOY, Wednesday is the annual meeting. I can't wait. It looks like the old board members will be voted off and new board members will be voted on. Me and my other two neighbors still have a year left on the board.

OOOOH this is so exciting, nervous, but exciting. I'm nervous because I don't put it past the managment company to try some funny business or illegal stuff. I'm nervous because I know the old board members will try some funny stuff as well. I'm excited because we get the new board gets to vote on the officials (President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer) after each annual meeting. I'm excited because I can't wait to have the new board voted in so we can FINALLY make all the changes necessary to increase the property value of our Condo!!!!!

I JUST CAN'T WAIT!

So much to catch up on.....

So, last weekend we celebrated both my birthday (10/25) and my hubby's birthday (11/2). YES, were both scorpios!!!!!

(the pictures came out all fuzzy, not sure why???? My camera is working fine!)

The annual meeting was pushed forward two weeks (11/7) since the Managment company felt that they could send a letter out slamming one of the baord members, don't they realize that they work for US? We are their boss?!?!?! Hopefully once we have the vote we can say "bye bye".

There are for positions available for election, and three people running for relection and FOUR NEW PEOPLE WHO WANT TO GET ON THE BOARD. A few of us have put up flyers and signs campaigning for the new people, hopefully they will get on the board and we can make changes.

Though we are prepared for any tricks or deceitful tactics the management company may try!!!!

I'll keep you all updated. So sorry for being gone from the DWB community, I felt so lost!

I've been so busy at work, but I love it!!!!!! I had my first of three observations last week, AND my final observation for Wilson (an intensive reading/language traning program) I am now officially Wilson Level 1 certified!!!!! WOOOOHOOOO

Camping and garden

We went camping Columbus Day weekend with my sister and her fiance. We had a blast, it turned out to be a little hotter than we expected that weekend, but we still had fun.

.

I bought different sized mums and and cedar mulch (it had a orange tint~perfect for the fall)

I also bought three small pumpkins to add more color to the garden.

I really REALLY love this time of year, it's my favorite. The colors, the sounds, the smells. It's just wonderful and calm before all the commericalism duing the winter holidays.

Gastro~~~~ doctor update

Thanks Frayspoo, I almost forgot about my blog, been so busy with work and Condo board stuff.

So, I don't go back to the Gastro~~~ doctor until next Tuesday, but I don't care what he says. I think I wasn't getting enough carbs in my diet, I was so focused on eating gluten free, that I was getting sick.

For the past three days I have been having quinoa and two eggs for breakfast (so yummy), when I have sause and turkey sausage I make sure I also have gluten free pasta. I also found a gluten free bread that I love (its rice and almond bread and DELICIOUS. I feel better, I really do. For dinner today I had a few slices of turkey, 1 slice of cheese, and my gluten free bread and it was SOOOOOO YUMMY, and so WHAT I MISSED AND CRAVED.

Even if the test comes back negative, I can still be gluten insensitive, or gluten intolerant. I am glad I am in tune with my body and still learning how to keep it running smoothly and efficiently. In addition I am eating raw almonds, raisins, and lots of fruit and veggies to keep my body healthy and on track.

soooo, now I'm rambling, I'm off to bed to sleep and plan what I will say at the board meeting tomorrow!!!!!! I'll let you all know what happened.
