My Weekend

   
    I had such a wonderful weekend with these two badass women. This weekend I was able to attend a Texas Blood Tracking seminar in Hamilton Texas. Hunters use dogs that have been certified to be Blood Trackers when an animal is wounded during a hunt, and needs to be found. The gorgeous pregnant woman in the picture is Bliss Lay and owns a Blue Lacy named Kiyah (Ki-Uh). A Lacey is a working dog that can track, bay, and herd cattle. They have boundless energy, are quite protective, and are hard workers.  Most of the dogs at the seminar were Blue Lacys, with one vizsla, one Rhodesian ridgeback, and a few terriers. All the dogs were beautiful and did a wonderful job at the seminar! I was so impressed with the dogs and the seminar that I would like to own a vizsla and train her for search and rescue.

   My knee performed above and beyond the call of duty this weekend. No swelling, little pain, and great stability despite walking around for 10 hours with the dogs and working on rough terrain. Good job Hertha! I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend :)!

Growing Up

Today at 0900 Steven and I paid off our car!!! I am so proud and happy that this moment finally came. We are slowly but surely becoming debt free through persistence and good money management. Wow, I feel like such an adult. Thank you for allowing me to have a grownup moment :)

     This morning came way too early but I had some Spark from +AdvoCare and feel more human. I have given up +Monster Energy due to the carb crashes that will follow after my ingesting this tasty energy drink. I first became of +AdvoCare through a classmate's stunning weight loss and energy spike. Being a graduate student I couldn't help but envy the pep in her step or the fact that she felt great all the time. I began to use products like #Spark and #Slam to help me power through long study sessions, orchestra rehearsals, and working all day. The Oasis drink mix helps to keep my stress levels down and my immunity up throughout my hectic schedule.I have decided to step up my game and try the 24 Day Challenge on March 10 to help lose a few lb.'s. I, of course will be posting about the highs and lows of this challenge on the blog.

     I hope everyone has a fantastic day!

This is what is usually in my desk lol. #Advocare
