Finding the New "Me"

Good Morning!

I have a busy week coming up at work.  As I have mentioned before, I am leaving my current job as the Assistant Director for Fitness and Wellness at the University I work for to move back to Ohio (we’re I am from) and move in with my boyfriend Andy.

This was a difficult decision to make, as I love my job, but I also really miss Ohio and want to start my life with Andy. It was definitely the right move to make and I am so excited.

Any how, this week we are interviewing 2 candidates for my job (which is so strange!).  The interviews are very long, and it’s an all-day process.  I am part of the committee to find the new “me”, so to speak!   We have another candidate we are interviewing next week as well.  All three are great and I am excited to meet them!  I hope to leave my position at the end of June in good hands 🙂

As for myself, I am in the process of applying for jobs! I have one prospect that would be the ideal job for me so I’ll keep you updated if I get an interview!

Dinner

Last night I was in the mood for more pizza (when am I not!?) so I decided to cook one up using Walmart brand dough mix.

My pizza included:

• Mozzarella cheese
• Mexican Blend cheese
• Parmesan cheese
• Chopped peppers (frozen)
• Chopped onions (frozen
• Tomatoes (canned)
• Pizza sauce
• Basil
• Red pepper flakes

While cooking, I enjoyed a glass of red wine.  I have a lot of booze to drink before I move at the end of June 😉

Cooking is more fun with wine! 🙂

Sunday Dinner

I ate 2 large slices of pizza and saved the rest to have for leftovers tonight.

Breakfast

Since I made blackberry french toast on Saturday, I was craving some of that sweet goodness this morning.  I changed up the fruit and used frozen raspberries and fresh strawberries instead.  It was a winning combination!

After the morning walk with the pups, I got to cooking in the kitchen!

Berry French Toast:

• 3 slices whole wheat bread
• 1 whole egg
• 2 egg whites
• Almond milk
• Cinnamon
• Frozen raspberries
• Fresh Strawberries

Delicious Strawberries

• Light mayo

Do you like what you do for a living? Or would do you envision yourself doing something different?

Do you like where you live?
