Diet

I think I am going to try a high fiber diet. If I can't loose weight at least I'll be shitten regular.

Fondue

Someone gave me a fondue set and fondue plates. Now I need to learn how to make fondue. I will be searching for some recipes.

Happenings

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. I think I have everything that I need to get. If not then it wasn't needed. I do need to go get stuff for Christmas Dinner. We are staying home this year. I think this is the first year we have ever stayed home on Christmas Day. We usually go to my in-laws.

This has been a long year.

My mother-in-law passed away in September. She found out in February that she had brain cancer. It's hard to believe she is gone. My mom has been gone for 5 years and at times it's hard to believe she is gone. Sometimes I want to pick up the phone and then I remember she is not here.

I have been taking my classes for a year this past November. Sometimes I would like to quit but I keep pushing myself. To get my Associates, I think I have a little over a year to go. If I can make it thru this then I will go for my Bachelor's.

The boys are doing ok. Their attitudes could be better sometimes.

Work is going ok. It could be better but since I have to be there for 5 days a week, I try to make the best of it. :)



For 2008 I need to make some changes. I just need the will power for some and courage (is that the right word?-I sound like the lion in Wizard of Oz) for others to stick with what needs to be done.


It feels like I need to write about something else. If I think of it I'll post later.



Have a nice Christmas everyone!!!

Dang

I finally remembered my password to get into this thing. Actually I just kept typing until it took. :)

blog

I was sitting here thinking I need to fix my blog up some.

Well let me stop screwing around and get more of my paper done.

finally

I started my paper that is due tomorrow night. I have 188 words and 1,212 more to go. As you can tell I'm trying to do different things to not do my paper. It will get done though.

I think later I'll go out and buy a dummies book on PowerPoint so I can get that project done.

I'm checking into switching from the University of Phoenix on-line classes to Strayer University. I went to Strayer years ago and now they have on-line classes and their line up of classes look more of what I want than the UOP, even though it's the same degree.


*************
I think the boys are camping outside tonight behind the house. I'll be thinking of them while I'm in my bed. :)

Becky's coming home

In a little less than a week Becky will be back in VA. I'm excited. :) Sometime in June we will be going to Lynchburg to see her and her daughter. I'll also get to see Muh who I haven't seen in years. I can't wait.
Have a safe trip home. Can't wait to see you.

On another note I have to start my paper that's due today and it has to be at least 1,050 words. Only two more weeks of this class though. This has been my least favorite class-Cultural Diversity. I think I will start my final paper today that is due in two weeks. I really can't wait for this class to end. One of my sources for my final paper is that I have to interview someone. The paper is on Race and Your Community. I don't know anyone to interview. I do not know any leaders in my community where I could just go up and start asking questions. How do you treat people that are different than me? I don't know if people in my neighborhood get treated differently. I'm at work during the week and I don't talk to anyone in the neighborhood on the weekend. Have I said I can't wait for this class to end. But I need to get started on this paper so I can do my final project for my other class which is a PowerPoint presentation based off of the Race and Your Community essay. And I have never used PowerPoint before. Can I cry now.

I need to take the advise I give my kids.
Do not wait untill the last minute to start on a project. But mom this is the first class I have done this in. Because I really do not like this class.
But that's more of a reason to get it done. Now get started on it.

And I get a three week break from my classes so I have that to look forward too.

nothing much

I need to unclutter my life.

I want some new shoes.

I might take a three week break from my classes. I'm tired.

I want some new shoes.

headphones

I thought the purpose of headphones was so that the person wearing them can hear the music and no one else can. It seems like they turn it up so everyone can still hear it. I need my sleep on the way in to work people. Have a lovely day. At least it's Friday.

Bubba

Ryan got a guinea pig today. He's sooooooo cute.

The E word and more!!!

So I need to do more than just eat right to lose weight. I need to get up and do some exercising. Oh how I hate that word and hate doing it even more. I have been going to jazzercise and boy am I sore. I have also been taking walks around the neighborhood.

Last week I took Ryan to a rising 6th grader thing at the middle school he will be going to next year, it's hard to believe. And my baby will be 6 at the end of this month and will be in 1st grade next year. Time sure does fly.

I have an interview on Friday. I pray I do good and get the job. Keep your fingers crossed. :)

I started my 3rd block of classes today. Which means I finished up my other two classes last night. So another year an half before I get my degree.

better late than never

Lets try this again.

I know this is a couple weeks late but I still wanted to mention it. I had soooo much fun on the fuggette's night out. I haven't been out in a long time so it was nice getting out with the ladies to talk and of course drink. Angel is a blast, we will have to do the shots again sometime. The limo bus was cool too. Oh and Krystal I guess we will never know about the pool, but the water did look good enough for a dip. Thanks Gayle for the talk I feel a lot better about things.

I miss hanging out with my friends just goofing off and getting drunk and yes even dancing the night away (I was skinny then). I do not miss the hangovers though. I miss Tina, Opal, Jeannie, and others. Times a change and everyone is busy with there own lives. As one of the fuggette's said, you need your girlfriends to talk with and to hang out with. I'm not sure if those where her exact words but you get the point. :) Thanks for reminding me of that Terri-TLW. I'll have to get back in touch with people.

damn it to hell

I just had written out a good post and I deleted it somehow. I'll try to remember what I wrote and try it again damn it......................

Last weekend was a blast. I started off by going to get my haircut and I bought me a couple new outfits. Saturday night I went out with a bunch of Fuggettes. The Limo bus was great. It was nice seeing people I have already meet and meeting new people.

love/hate

I love taking a nap during the day but I hate that once I wake up the whole day is gone.

I have more to say but I have to go now. I'll write more later.

It's that time

I need to really get serious about my weight issues. Here comes another summer and I'm going to be fat again. I need to start exercising that will help a lot. I need to use my treadmill for more than to hang clothes on. So starting today I'm checking my points and going to start with the treadmill AGAIN. So lets see how I do this time around.........

scured

I was sitting in the CVS parking lot Saturday afternoon waiting for Kyle's prescription to be filled, he was in the back seat. I saw this old lady coming out of CVS going to her car looking down at the ground. I was turning around to giving Kyle his chocolate milk and someone opened my door and I turned around screaming in the persons face, it was that old lady. She thought my car was hers because they are the same color. She kept apologizing and saying she thought it was her car. Couldn't she hear my car running though and see two people sitting in it? All Kyle was doing was sitting there laughing because I had the life scared out of me. So after the woman left all I could do was sit there and laugh with Kyle. I felt stupid, but I wasn't expecting anyone to open up my car door.

Why oh Why?

Ryan my oldest son will argue over every little thing that is said. I do not care if it's right in front of his face for example lets say the cup is blue, he will argue that it's not. A lot of the arguing is with me, he doesn't like me telling him what to do, when to do it, etc. When will this faze end?

I'm sitting here procrastinating about doing my homework assignment that is due tonight. I better get started on it. Oh I have such a headache.

Snow Days

It sucks being out of school or not having a job where I can stay home on a snow day. Maybe I need to find a new job with snow days. haha

Current Mood

Blah, I could just sit and cry for a couple of hours.

Classes

I finished up my first block of classes on January 28. I received my grades today, in Skills for Learning in an Information Age I received an A- and in Effective Persuasive Writing I received a B+. Not to shabby for being out of school for so long. I started my next two classes on January 29, they are Critical Thinking and Utilizing Information in College Writing. I hope I do just as well in those. It's a lot of work and I'm tired, but I have to keep pushing myself.

Till next time. :)

There is a God!!!

The bitch got a new job. I only have to put up with her for two more weeks. I'm not say things will be a 100% better, but it will be 90% better. Maybe I will not feel sick all week from Sunday night until Friday at 3:30pm.

Blogging

I am starting up a new blog. Lets see where this one goes.
