I made a wish and viola! Seriously, I set goals and I'm hitting them!
I wanted to have a job working from home. A real job, not just making some cash on the side and I have one!
DREAM COME TRUE!
I wanted to get my blogs 'out there' and I wanted get more networking accomplished so I listed my sites in a website directory and I am already seeing an increase in traffic!
I wanted to have an office/family room and almost $6,000 later we have one, complete with a laundry/utility room and a bathroom! I know, $6,000 - but I will have that paid off in about 3 months - thanks to the above mentioned job!
The BEST goal set that I WILL achieve: Becoming a DVC (Disney Vacation Club) member! We plan on buying into Bay Lake Towers! I foresee this purchase being made by December. If we buy in December, I hope to book our next Family Disney Vacation for May 2010 - around Mother's Day.
Oh, AND - we're supposed to go to Hawaii in either March or April 2010 - that will be one hell of a trip. I am trying to figure out a way to take the kids and my mother in law but The Man just wants to go with me and me only, we shall see...
Life - it's damn good!
My Life ROCKS...so far!
My Eyes Change With My Mood
I was told my eyes change with my mood. I am not so sure about that one, my eyes are a dark brown and they've never looked anything but dark brown to me!
Other than that bit of news, nothing else is really going on. We're still remodeling the basement, which should be done this week. Then it's off to shop! I am not sure but I may get an XBox for down there.
If you had no idea about our basement remodel, it's been one hell of a journey! Just visit my UnbalancedLibra blog and in the search bar type basement remodel - enjoy the drama and the photos!
Tryng to Explain...
The other day I was taking Miss. Independent to her dad's and as we were driving we passed a truck hauling what appeared to be cattle supplies and as son as we passed that truck, we came upon one actually hauling cattle.
Of course she asked me where they were going and I explained they were going to a farm. I suppose she thought they were on their way to some cow paradise. I really wanted to tell her where I figured they were going but I decided to leave her innocence intact.
When the hell is the best time to explain things like this? I mean, sure, kids who live on farms know all about this stuff, but oh I don't know. I guess I just didn't have it in e to tel her.
I'm Done
I'm done worrying about this whole weight loss issue. I've gotten to the point where I looked into diet pills and had been reading up on phenphedrine reviews and trying to talk myself into going back to the gym or at least just getting on the treadmill.
Then The Man wound up on night shift and that was the last straw. The treadmill is in our bedroom and he obviously needs to sleep during the morning/day. If I don't exercise in the morning I won't later in the day ad I sure as hell won't at night, so I'm done. I'm done worrying about it.
Yea right, this week I am - I am sure my messed up personality will shine through and I'll be stressing over this again soon..
Time Keeps Ticking
Time keeps ticking and I am not even close to where I wanted to be, weight wise, truly frustrating!
I did really well in the beginning. I thought I need something like that ephedra diet pill to boost my metabolism and start weight loss but I didn't. I just ate healthier and I was on the treadmill every day for about an hour. I even felt better rather quickly.
15 pounds dropped off fast. That motivated me but then I hit a plateau and I lost my drive. The Man started a new shift for work (9:30am - 6pm) and that meant he had to get up at like 7am to do an hour on the treadmill or do it at night after dinner and he couldn't get himself to do it at either time.
Then we had some remodeling done to the house and then we went on our Disney vacation and then when we got back I wound up with a sinus infection, barely got over that and wound up with bronchitis.
I kept thinking to myself, 'if I can just exercise even only a short time every day, I'll be better off in 6 months than I am today.' Well, time kept ticking and I fell out of the boat and now I am forced to start over but I don't have the willpower...
