Baby it's cold outside

it is a very lovely -8 out right now, your breath hangs in the air and freezes to your nose. We are supposed to get to -18 tonight Yippee skippee. I hate it when its this cold out because as soon as I walk outside and breathe I start coughing, I have been this way since I was a baby. Never fails either, it gets below 0 and I take my frist breath and a coughing fit happens. I want to say its because I have a very mild livable case of asthma, how true this is I don't know but I'm blaming it on that.

So its so cold that inside our apartment on the windows is ice, I kid you not, our windows are frozen shut by a good inch or so of ice on the inside. For us to even consider to open the windows we would have to stand there with a hair dryer for at least an hour per window. We have also come to realize that this upcoming spring/summer we will need a new front door. Our door is warped so it doesn't close right. Basically warm air excapes and cold air gets in which causes ice to form on the side of the door itself and twice now we have had to either kick the door to get into the apartment from the outside or pull extremly hard from the inside to get out. Plus there is a lot of frost on the outside molding of the door. I will take pics to show you tomorrow when its light out.

10 pounds just looking at the pictures! I graze on all this stuff through out the day
after Christmas Richard and I are going to go back to the gym and work off all the sugar.

Sleepless in Anchorage

Its 4:39am and I'm sitting at the computer wide awake. I rather be in my nice cozy bed sound asleep next to my husband yet here I sit. I don't know why I have been having such a hard time sleeping. I go to bed when he does and do fall asleep but usually end up waking up at like anywhere between 1-3 am wide awake. I will be up for hours on end then will get tired at about 10am and sleep till like 2pm and it starts all over again. I thought I had solved the problem Saturday night cause I slept all night and woke up Sunday at like 10:30 which is about normal for me but nooo I had to wake up at 1am after going to bed at 11:30 which is again pretty normal for me.

The sad thing now is that in just a matter of minutes Richards alarm will be going off to wake him up to go to work. so even if I did fall back to sleep it would be for like 10 minutes. Which isn't a good thing. Hopefully once he gets off to work I will be able to go to sleep for a few more hours. That way when he comes home for lunch he can take me to moms to do laundry if not I will have to do laundry tomorrow.

Oh the weather outside is Frightfull

Here is a picture of Kramer being a bad cat, he isn't supposed to be laying on the tree skirt. My mom made that tree skirt for my grandparents and when they died she got it back. We have used it since I was 6 years old, so its very old. She is letting me use it but we don't want Kramer to ruin it.
Isn't that just a pretty picture I took that when it was snowing here like last week or so ago. I posted that picture to also let you know that as I sit here typing this out the computer says its 1 degree F. out. Which means where I live its below zerro. that translates into freaking cold. now if it was 10 below or colder out thats when it becomes just Damn cold. I'm sitting here with a nice warm cup of tea, slippers on and a nice big ol comfy sweater on. So I am nice and toasty warm.

Mom got her new dishwasher, fridge and oven today, she seems pretty happy with them her new fridge is quiet a bit bigger than her old one so its pretty empty at the moment. Her dishwasher will get put in some time this following week, when Richard's dad can come over and do it.
Kramer is also not liking the cold weather, he is spending most of his time either in his cat tree, curled up in a chair or sleeping under the blankets on our bed, poor fuzzy lumpkins.

Happy Birthday Dad!


I have tried to avoid this post but I can't avoid it anymore so here it goes. December 10th was my dads birthday, he would have been 62. It's hard for me to imagine my dad being 62, a lot of that is because I can only ever remember him as how he looks in that picture with me.
Its weird how the brain works, like I have said in other posts sometimes it feels like I never had a father at all, like he was just a figment of my imagination and other times it feels like I had him around. It just depends on the day I guess.
I am so my fathers daughter its unreal, I look like him, have his since of humor, and his temper. I also have his smile. My mom every once in a while will say there is no question that you are your fathers child. Usually after I have cracked a joke that would have been something dad would have said.
The one thing I wish I didn't get from dad was his temper, it gets the best of me sometimes and I hate that. Of course the fact that I have my moms attitude and my dads temper doesn't help that matter. And if any of you knew my dad and know my mom you know how well those two things mixed together work, not very well. Its a good thing I have a handle on it for the most part. It takes more to get me mad now then it did when I was a teenager.
But its time for me to end this post. So I will end it the only way I know how. Happy Birthday Dad!

Short update on me

Well I got the root canal done today, it went smoothly with out any complications. My tooth hurts a little bit but I was expecting that, I mean you can't go digging around inside a tooth and expect it not to hurt. I will be back to normal tomorrow so no biggie. I have to get used to the way the tooth feels now, its all smooth feeling and there is no chip in it anymore.

I was with out internet for a few days because our broadband tower decided to die on us and they had to ship us a new one. It was weird not being able to just hop on the net when I wanted to. I survived it but I missed talking to all my online friends and being able to check my email.

On to some really good news, Richard and I will soon have health insurance through his work. He decided to see how much it would cost for both of us to be covered and wanted to make sure that my one doctor that I go to who is a specialist would take the insurance and that the insurance company would pay. The doctors office does so thats a good thing. Plus now when I need meds they will be cheaper as well so double woot woot. Plus it only costs us $136 a month, and thats for both of us, can't beat that.

Snow and another shower

Its supposed to snow tomorrow and Monday, I hope it actually happens that way I can say its finally winter here and can take pictures to post on here. I have even started my Christmas shopping. I know its not even Thanksgiving but I rather start now then wait. Plus it was a really good deal. I have a present for my mom and my mother-in-law two totally different gifts but each will like them. I have also caught myself whistliing or humming christmas songs the last couple of days. For some reason I am in the Christmas spirit early this year. lets hope I keep it up.

I also have another babyshower to go to the day after Thanksgiving. Its for a friend of mine that I have known for 15 years. its her first child. I am looking forward to seeing her, she lives in Texas at the moment and is flying up to spend thanks giving with her family. I will also meet her husband for the first time. I'm going to have great fun.

Kramer in a nutshell

That is so kramer you have no idea, he meows and meows at me till I get up and feed him. make sure to click the other two videos that show up after its done playing. If Kramer could he would use a bat to get me out of bed in the morning as well.

waiting for a friend, update on foot, daylight savings

Thought I would update you all on how my foot is doing. The good news is the redness is gone! so the meds seem to be doing their job. The bad news is the swelling is still there, when I woke up this morning I thought it had gone down some but as soon as I started walking around it balooned back up to where it was yesterday. I can actually stand to have things touch my foot with out screaming in pain so thats another big plus. Now to get the swelling to go away so I can wear a sock and be comfy while doing it.

Richard and I are waiting for our friend Brian to show up. He said he would be over at noon and its now 1:30 so yeah he's late, most likely not coming over at all. We have been trying to get together with him for 2 weeks now and it doesn't seem to be working out. Who knows he still might show up, its still early in the day after all.

Richard and I totally spaced setting the clocks back an hour for daylight savings so for about an hour we were a bit confused till I called my mom to update her on my foot and she said that we forgot and that it was only 9:30. Oops, oh well, we have now changed all the clocks besides the one in the bathroom.

Halloween Memories

I hung out with my mom for a couple of hours tonight, Richard had to work yet again tonight so instead of being home alone on Halloween I called mom up and she picked me up on her way home from work. Watching all the kids go trick or treating brought back a lot of fond memories for me. I remember getting all dressed up in snow gear then putting on the costume over it and wading through feet of snow to go get candy. I also remember my dad sorting through the candy "making sure" that none of it was tampered with. Not knowing it then but looking back at it realizing that he just wanted all the good candy for himself. Also knowing that I too will do this to my kids when they are young and don't catch on that I want all the good candy for myself. I always had fun going trick or treating, and seeing my haul when I got back home and my glasses warmed up so they weren't fogged up so I could see it all. ahh those were the days.

In other news Kramer Bit my foot on Wednesday and now its infected. I am on meds thanks to the wonderful Dr. Duddy. My foot is a bit swollen and red and hurts when I walk around but its slowly getting better, tonight it started oozing so I'm on the right track to healing up. Kramer no longer will get catnip at all, seeing as how we think this is why he bites me the most often. the other times he bites its because I ignored him too long when he wants wet food.

Longing for Christmas

It's nearing the end of October and that means that its almost my favorite time of year. My two upmost favorite holidays are Thanksgiving andd Christmas. Thanksgiving because well I get to hang out with my entire family all at the same time. My mom, brother, Richard and his parents, Richard's sister if she is able to come up and me. We all converge on my moms house for turkey, potatoes, Jell-o Pretzel Salad (my all time fav) and of course to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade which starts the Christmas Season. We also growing up would watch a Christmas Story, as the first Christmas movie of the season. Yes, I can quote that entire movie by heart.

I have always loved Christmas, a lot of that is thanks to my dad. He made it so magical, he always decorated the inside and outside of our house with Christmas lights and decorations. The tradition was on December 10th, which was his birthday we would go get our live Christmas Tree and decorate it. God how I love the smell of christmas trees, any time I smell them I am suddenly a little girl sitting in the dark with only the lights of the christmas tree on just staring at it. Taking in how beautiful it was. I love Christmas music and every year now only listen to the Christmas music station from Thanksgiving till Christmas. Its always been a magical time of year for me and when I have kids I hope its the same way for them.

At this time of the year, I start Craving christmas cookies, Egg Nog (love love love it), the music, turkey everything Christmas. I also find it a very romantic time of year. I love cuddling up to Richard on a cold snowy day with tea or hot coaco and just being. I'm a sap for that!

Stranger Danger!!

I had a strange guy walk into my apartment today. Before you all freak out I'm fine and nothing happened I just got a little unnerved over it. I will start from the beginning. It was about 1pm here, I was beyond bored so I got out my exercise ball and decided to play MarioKart on the Nintendo Wii. I had been playing it for about maybe a half hour when there was a knock at the door. Now mind you Richard is at work so I figured it was him being lazy and wanting me to open the door, but seeing as how I was in the middle of a race and couldn't pause the game I ignored the knock knowing that he could let himself in. There was another knock a few seconds past and the door opens I look up expecting to see Richard and there is this strang man walking into my apartment!!! I'm sitting there stunned for like a few seconds then get really mad and started yelling at him saying "what the hell do you think your doing and who the fuck are you?!?!?!" He doesn't say anything and procedes to walk back out of the apartment and closes the door. I automatically get up run to the door and lock it.

I was so completly freaked out about it that I went to the bedroom and got the metal bat from my side of the bed and had it on the couch in case he decided to come back. A complete over reaction yeah I know but I didn't know what else to do. I didn't call the cops because well he left right after I yelled at him. I do know that if he had continued to walk in I would have called the cops. I told Richard about it and he said for now on he will lock the door behind him when he goes to work. That he hadn't done it in like a month but now feels really bad about it. So thats what happend today.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Oh the weather outside is frightfull but the fire is so delightfull and since we have no place to go let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. As you can tell its snowing here and I'm happy I love the snow it makes it that much more beautiful here. Its been snowing here all day. Not alot has accumulated I don't think even an inch yet but its been snowing and there is a dusting on the ground. I just looked out the window and it has stopped snowing I hope it starts up again.

who'd a thunk it

I had talked over what I was feeling with Richard last night. He totally understood what I was going through and yeah he was dissapointed with me but he understood. I had told him that something just didn't feel right there and that I didn't know what it was but it was something. I got up this morning and went into Babies R Us and was talking to the assistant manager and she told me that she was going to let me go because I wasn't R us material. So I left on good terms but it was just funny, because I had felt that something wasn't quite right and I guess it was the fact that I knew I wasn't going to be working there much longer. So I no longer work at babies r us. I'm not mad about it or anything.

On different news its snowing yet again. It snowed a few days ago but melted and now its snowing again so I have a feeling we are in the throws of winter up here. I'm happy I love winter i love it when it snows... It just feels so peacefull when it snows.

le sigh

hmm I don't know what to think now. Don't get me wrong I think I like my job but I get these really bad headaches and I come home and sleep for hours after I get home from work. It has happened every day that I go to work. I'm not looking forward to tomorrow because I am spending 4 and a half hours at work and will have another headache. I feel rundown and blah. My feet, knees and lower back are killing me! I know this is part of me getting used to working but I didn't hurt this bad when I worked at Wal-mart and was working 3 eight hour days before I got the stressed induced vertigo.

Right at this moment I can honestly say I'm not happy, I'm depressed and that scares me. I haven't been depressed in a long while. I feel its my obligation to work that I need to help with the bills that I need to do something besides stay at the apartment all day and keep it clean and food on the table for Richard. My stomach is in knots and upset cause I don't know what to do I want to quit but I want to work. I just feel better when I'm home, keeping the place clean and food on the table. I feel like thats where I belong. Its the only thing I'm good at. I am also afraid that I will once again piss my mom off if I quit because I didn't give the job a chance. I am also afraid of making Richard mad. he likes the fact that I have a job but I'm not happy and all I want to do is cry. I'm such a failure I get these jobs then I can't last, I get stressed out, and don't know what to do with about it then feel like crap when I quit because I let my mom and Richard down yet again. Maybe I wasn't cut out to work. I keep telling myself I can do this, but it doesn't work.

I don't know what to do, If I talk to Richard about what I'm feeling he will tell me to hold out and see if it gets better. if I talk to mom she will tell me not to quit that I NEED to work.

The Job, Birthday, and Baby showers

My Job is going great, I have only worked a total of 6 and 1/2 hours over two days but it seems to me that I am going to be able to stay at the job. I work again Wednesday and Thursday of this upcoming week. I like the fact that its only two days because it gives me a chance to get used to working there and to know the register there seeing as how I am a cashier and all I think this is a good idea.

Richard's birthday is Tuesday. Mom took me out shopping so I could get him a birthday gift, I ended up getting him a beard trimmer. He has been wanting one for a while now so I figured his birthday would be a good way of giving it to him. Mom will also be taking us out to dinner where ever he wants to go, thats her gift to him.

I have a friends Baby shower to go to on October 11th and today I got her gift all wrapped up and pretty looking. Richard and I sorta spoiled her. we spent like $121.00 on her. I hope she likes the stuff we got her.

Its only part time but anything is better than nothing I can't wait! hmm I guess this means I need to buy a lunch box.

BUT YAY I GOT THE JOB!!!

Wednesday Weigh in

Yes I know, you're all thinking but you weigh in on Thursdays not Wednesdays whats the deal? The deal is I have my godfather coming over for dinner tonight and I have told him about my diet and wanted to give him an update tonight about how much I have lost, so this morning when I got up I pulled the scale out hoping against all hope that I didn't mess myself up to badly going to the fair. Plus still haven't made it back to the gym because of Sunday's 7 1/2 hours walking at the fair. (legs are a little sore). Anyways, got onto the scale and drum roll please *pauses* I have lost another 5 pounds!!!! that puts me at a total of 19 pounds gone! WOOT!

Thursday, August 21, 2008

tipping the scale

(I thought I would dress up the usual Thursday entry with a pretty flower)

I haven't been able to exercise this last week due to Richard having to do practically an entire week of over nights at work, which sucked because not only did I not get to exercise I didn't sleep well either. I realized last night that today was Thursday and that I was due for a weigh in. I figured since I didn't go work out at all last week or any of this week that I was bound to have gained weight back. At best I wouldn't have lost any weight but not gained any either. I decided not to dwell on it till after I found out the results of the weigh in. I pretty much stuck to not eating a lot and only when I was hungry so I figured I wasn't to bad off.

So per usual on Thursday mornings I got up walked into the bathroom and pulled the dreaded scale out of the closet, stepped onto it and waited for the news. I didn't know if it would be good new or bad news but I knew it would be news. It was good news! I lost another 2 pounds so that puts the grand total of pounds loss to 14 pounds!!!!!!! I figure at ever 10 pounds lost I will take a picture so that means when I reach a total of 20 pounds there will be another picture of Moi on here.

a follow up to Art for the walls

So I got the pictures printed off and found a frame, with out the pictures with me. To my surprise the frame I chose makes the pictures look like expensive artwork, at least to me. I couldn't believe it, its now hanging up in my living room and looks great!
I also Printed off a few pics of kramer and found a frame for them as well. I still have more pics of him to frame but these two were the ones that looked the best in the frame.

My favorite past time Photography

I have always loved taking pictures and since I got my new camera last year I think
my skills with photography have improved greatly. at least with pictures of flowers and cats. I don't really have any willing people to practice on.
Here are some close ups of flowers that are across the way from my apartment. I just took these today and really enjoyed how they turned out.

Picture proof

Ok so at the request of a friend I will show some picture proof of my weight loss. this first picture was taken last year a the old apartment.
This picture was taken on the 17th of July.
This last picture was taken today. Notice the fact that my face is thinner and not so red as last months pic.
The shirts in the last two pictures is one and the same but different froom the first pic. Just thought I would clarify that.

Thursday weigh in

Its Thursday, do you know what that means? it means its time for the weekly weigh in. I am always nervouse before stepping on the scale cause I never know if it will make me happy or depress the hell out of me. All the last Thursdays that have passed have been good Thursdays, the scale was in my favor showing me I have lost a few pounds maybe two since the week before each time. So all good there. Today I was expecting more of the same going I will be happy to know I have lost a total of 10 pounds, meaning I would of only lost 2 more pounds. I pulled the scale out of the closet, close the bathroom door and step on, with my eyes closed, wait a few minutes then looked down. I was in shock, total and complete shock, I just stood there staring at the number it showed, like this couldn't be right, but it was. After weighing myself one more time to make sure the scale wasn't lying and getting the same number I put the scale back in the closet and opened the bathroom door. Once I got into the hallway I did a dance of Joy. Yup Joy I have lost a total of you ready for this, remember last week was 8 pounds, this week its a total of 12 pounds!!! which means I lost 4 pounds this week!!!!!

Art for the walls and Screen Doors


I took these three pictures at the old apartment last Fall and fell in love with them and knew at some point in time I wanted to do something with them but I didn't know when or what. Well I have been wanting to get some art for the apartment we are in now. I have been looking at some stores found a few things I liked
but wasn't really sure about, or were way to expensive. Then it hit me I could get these three pictures printed out and then buy frames for them and hang them next to one another on the wall. I was able to take my memory card from my camera to Fred Meyers today and get them printed off. I got them in the 5x7 size and then mom and I found a frame that will hold all three of them and will look great! I have to wait till friday to get the frame but I can't wait. I also got some pictures of Kramer printed and some other ones that I took on a trip to Potters Marsh. I will get them framed and hung on the wall too. The only reason the black and white one is so small is because I was going to use it as an avatar at one of the websites I frequent but haven't gotten around to doing so yet.

Richard has to work two overnight shifts on Wednesday and Thursday, I hate when he has to work overnights cause I never sleep very well at all. I have gotten used to falling asleep to his snorring so when he isn't in bed next to me I don't sleep very well. He has to do the over nights because he has to down stock and clean and paint the floor behind the paint desk at Lowe's. I have no clue what I am going to do with out him those nights.

Mom finally decided to get a new screen door for the front door of the house. Its this really cool door that its screen is connected to the glass so when you want the screen you push the glass down and the screen rolls down and when you don't want the screen you lift the glass back up. Me desribing the door doesn't do it justice I will post a picture of it, once it gets installed. Richard and I are going to get the same screen door in October for the apartment as well. Our land lord says we have to choose and buy the door but they will put it in and do all the upkeep on it but it stays with the apartment when we move out and if we break it we have to buy a new one. Its a pretty good deal if you ask me, plus it will help keep the apartment cooler durring the summer and gives us another door to help keep Kramer from getting out, and gives him another window to look out off. So when we get it in October we will get it installed in Spring.

Saturday, August 9, 2008

Finally was able to make it an hour again on the tredmill today WOOT! It felt good. Plus I have started to increase the speed for a couple of minutes then slow it back down for about 5 minutes then speed back up for up to 3 minutes. Its not much but hey every little bit helps. Starting on the 21st of this month Richard and I start using the weight machines as well as the hour long stints on the tredmill. We will still be going everyday and every other day we will work either our upper or lower body

EVEN BETTER NEWS!! I HAVE LOST A TOTAL OF 8 POUNDS SO FAR!!!!!!! I can't believe it and my stomach is getting flatter. I love seeing the results and can't wait to see more.

Back in Action

the cold isn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be, its just like a worse version of my allergies. I just have a runny nose and sneeze a whole hell of a lot. So today after Richard gets off work we are going to the gym to move it move it. I feel bad for taking so many days off but I just didn't feel good enough to go.

Now for some exciting news, I am wearing a shirt I haven't been able to wear in about a year or so. Yup it fits again and is a little loose too not by much but hey its a start. I'm going to use this shirt as my work out shirt that way all my other shirts I can wear during the week cause I don't have that many to wear. but its freaking awsome nowing that I can wear this one again.I can't wait till it gets even looser on me.

Sunday, August 3, 2008

Its 1:47 am do you know where your brain is?

I have a cold YAY! (NOT) I hate being sick, I hate it, I hate it I hate it! It always messes my sleep schedule up. I'm always wide awake at night and groggy and tired during the day. I don't understand this at all. So far its just a runny nose, I hope thats all it is and that it doesn't go to my ears cause I really don't want to have to go to the doctor to get meds to clear up my hearing.

I have been so out of it the last three days from not feeling well that I haven't gone to the gym. I just haven't had the energy to go, plus I know that if I went I would just make myself worse because I have been fighting the urge to toss my cookies most of the day the past 3 days as well. AND NO don't even go there, I'm not pregnant. As much as I wish that was the case its not.

Tomorrow I'm off to moms house to do the laundry so Richard and I can have clean clothes yet agian for another week. Laundry is my least favorite chore in the entire world, I rather clean the bathroom then do laundry. But alas it has to get done.

Its August and that means 3 things for Alaska 1. The State fair is fast aproaching, I can already taste the Husky Burger *drools* 2. fall is right around the corner litterally and we are loosing daylight. And Finally 3. The one thing that all Alaskans wait for The PFD is only 2 months away!! Gotta love the free money BABY!!!

here it goes again

The last two nights I have made it an hour on the treadmill WOO HOO! I never would have been able to do this with out headphones, I would have given up due to bordom. I also met a lady there who was impressed with me coming to the gym every day and walking. She said she had seen me a few times and she noticed I come in everyday and go to the treadmill and work out and that seeing me do that has encouraged her to keep coming to work out. Who knew that wanting to get myself healthier would have an impact on other people. I am surprised by this, I didn't think I would impact anyone by wanting to improve myself.

In other news, mom came over for dinner last night. She called me up and asked whats for dinner I told her spagetti and she said she would be right over. She also asked if she could take the diet pop we had so she would have some at home cause they were out and she only has 15 dollars in her bank account till Friday.SO I let her take it, we don't drink it and it was in there for her anyways, for when she came over. She also made the comment to the fact that my fridge was damn near empty my reply was yeah we need food but have to wait till friday as well.

WOO HOO!!!!

So I just weighed myself and I have lost 6 pounds WOOT! Mom asked me yesterday how much I have lost and I told her I hadn't weighed myself so I did this morning and 6 pounds are gone!!! I feel so good about it. I can't wait for more to come off! Who knew that I would like exercising so much.

I have more great news too, went to the gym yesterday and are you ready for this? I walked on the tredmill for an HOUR! I burned 421 calories walked 2mph and made it 2 miles in an hour. I'm going to stick to an hour of walking for a while though cause my knee started hurting right around an hour so I need to make it stronger before I go on. I figure once it gets eayier for me to walk the hour I am going to slowly increase the speed that I walk it.

I CAN'T WAIT TILL I GO WORK OUT AGAIN TODAY!!!!!!

work it out

After taking two days off from the gym because of Richard's work hours and us going to the gym at midnight on Tuesday we went back yesterday. I only made it 30 minutes which sucked but today I am going to push for 50 minutes to an hour. I notice that if I take a break longer than a day I can't go for 45 minutes untill I work up to it again. We also got headphones so now I can hear the tv and man does time fly while walking and watching tv so my goal won't be that hard to do and once it gets too easy for me to do I will push myself farther.

Mom called me last night to inform me that our hairdresser is moving in August and that Friday is the last day we will be seeing her. She was just getting good with my hair and now she is moving. This seems to be happening more and more to mom and I. our firt guy Curtis did our hair from when I was 9 to about 19 or 20 years old, then he retired and we went to Liz and she did our hair for about 2 to 3 years and now Kristina who has only done our hair for about a year is moving. So the search for a new hairdresser is on... UGH! I have had some pretty bad hair cuts in my time due to the person not listening to what I want.

In other news, Richard and I decided that for an entire month all we are going to do is the tredmill, basically a cardio work out. the last time we were serious about working out all we did was walk the mall and lost a lot of weight so we figure cardio for a month then go back to the weight machines. Since thats all we are going to be doing we are going to go every day to the gym and walk, then its most likely going to be every other day once we start the machines again.

I have also noticed my face is getting thinner, and I don't get hungry or eat while bored and watching tv. I have cut back on how much I eat and am now eating 3 meals a day instead of just 2. I am finding that I have more energy and want to do more things as well. Now if I could just get my sleep schedule back on track all would be good. But I am liking the diet and exercise routine I'm on and plan on keeping at it.

Not in high school no more

Owie I hurt! Yup I was right, my arms didn't hurt at all yesterday, untill we went to the gym. I only walked like 20 minutes on the tredmill then it was off to the weight machines. I only did 20 minutes on the tredmill because I don't want to over due myself and not want to go to the gym, plus 45 minutes is a bit long and just a little too much pain to handle at the moment but I will get there again soon.

It was getting close to Richard and I finishing our work out and he decided to go do bench presses and I stood there watching him thinking my god I could never do that. He benched about 95 pounds 10 times gets up and then does squats. He puts the bench back and I start to walk off and he goes "its your turn." I informed him that in high school I couldn't even freaking bench the bar by itsself what makes you think I can do it now. His response was your not in school anymore. So Bravely and feeling a bit stupid cause I know I can't do it. I get the bar and bench it 5 times and go ok, this is too easy. Mind you the bar itself ways 45 pounds. so he adds weights and makes it 55 pounds I bench it 5 times still way to easy.
Ok so at this point in time I am impressed cause 1 I benched the bar and it was too easy 2 he added weights and it was still to easy and 3 I didn't think I was this strong in the first place. I am also wishing that my high school gym teacher was there so I could rub it in her face that I could bench more than the bar that I could hardly bench in her class. Richard changes out the weights and makes the bar weigh 65 pounds, I'm thinking my god I can see it now woman crushed to death by 65 pound bench press. I lift it up and bench it 10 yes you read that right 10 more times. Ladies and gentlemen I am floored. Richard is impressed and patting me on the back going way to go hunnie. All I can think about is my god my arms are going to kill me on Sunday!
I was right my arms hurt yet again. But will feel better by Wednesday when I go work them out again. My legs never really hurt after Thurday so Tomorrow when I go I will work them a little more. I have also stopped dinking pop and am now watching how much I eat. Plus I don't really get that hungry anymore anyways. WOOT! things are looking good for me.

Oh Baby make it hurt so good

I got brave and the last two times I have gone to the gym I have actually worked with the weight machines as well. On Tuesday I worked my upper body mostly my arms and chest and of course abs, and walked on the tredmill. Took Wednesday off to recover from Tuesday good thing because I was having problems moving my arms cause they were sore and it hurt. Today we went and walked on the tredmill then I worked my lower body, you know the legs and butt. I am just now starting to feel the pain so I can only imagine what tomorrow will bring when I wake up. My arms don't hurt half as bad as they did yesterday and Saturday I figure they won't hurt at all till I of course go back to the gym and you guessed it work out my upper body again. We are going every other day to the gym and its working out great for us. If I keep going at this pace I will look good in no time at all. I weighed myself the other day and have lost 4 pounds so far. woo hoo!

Ch ch changes

I have only gone maybe 4-5 times to the gym so far, I am going again tomorrow and I am already feeling a difference. I'm more energized, I don't get winded as easily as I used to. I haven't noticed any changes shrinking wise but my mom has. She says that I look thinner. I was standing in front of her talking to her and she said that my sides look thinner. This took me by surprise because I didn't think anything was happening or at least noticeable yet but I guess there is. It makes me want to go to the gym that much more. I thought my shirt was fitting a little looser but didn't think much of it. Mom pointing it out to me that I look smaller just made my day. I hope I can keep this up, no I take it back I know I can keep this up.

My last parting words are:


GO ME GO ME I CAN DO IT YES I CAN!!!!!!!!!!

PlanetFitness

So I joined a gym yesterday called planetfitness its a judgment free zone. Plus it only costs 15 bucks a month per person so for Richard and I it costs 30 bucks a month which I think is totally awesome! We went and worked out today and I managed to do 30 minutes on the treadmill which for me is pretty good. I felt great afterwords and still have energy! I think things are going to change for me. I think that I am going to make this work. I love the gym there are people there of all shapes sizes and ages. We are going back tomorrow to work out again. WOOT!

To say goodbye to you

Wish I could whistle down the Northern Lights
And send them dancing all across the night
Maybe then when all the sky was blazing
Maybe then I'd feel you somewhere gazing at a star,
And you could feel me too as I say goodbye to you
It breaks my heart in two, to say goodbye to you
Wish time could turn us back to yesterday
The gods above would look the other way
Maybe then we still could laugh together
Maybe then it could be spring forever and a day
But I must face the truth and say goodbye to you
It breaks my heart in two, to say goodbye to you
Wish I could whistle down the Northern Lights
And send them dancing all across the night
Maybe then in my memories for saving
One last time you're on the hill waving from afar
One last glance or two
and I'll say goodbye to you
It breaks my heart in two, to say goodbye to you
thats a song sung by Aselin Debison I read the lyrics at a friends funeral 4 years ago
I put them up here cause I was thinking of her.

hmm don't know what to think

A friend of my moms says I should go into some form of writing and my mom agrees, she says that I am talented and could do well writing little kids books. My mom also says I should write about my relationship with my Friend Diane and her battle with breast cancer. I don't know what to think about this. I don't think I'm that talented in writing but everyone seems to think I am. OR well at least at my moms work. I had made a news flyer one day cause I was bored and made up this story about Kramer caught cat napping after cat nip and they all loved it. What to do what to do, the chances of me actually getting published to me are slim to none and I don't even know where to start.

the passing of time

Fourteen years ago my life changed, I was only 10 years old, I lived in a world filled with barbie dolls, Saturday morning cartoons and if I was lucky donuts for breakfast on Sundays. There wasn't anything bad out to get me I was safe in my own little world or so I thought. That all changed when my dad got sick. Suddenly there was this thing called cancer and an even scarier thing called death. All I knew at that time about death was it took grandparents away so they could sleep and we would see them again some day soon. Dad went to the hospital for surgery, then chemo and Radiation, but was always home when I got home from school. He started spending more time in bed and got sicker and sicker. I would help my mom take care of dad when I was home from school and on the weekends. Soon it was to the point that dad didn't leave the house anymore, school was out for the year so I would take care of dad while mom was at work for 4 hours a day. Then it happened, the thing I thought could never happen, I was woken up at 6am by my mom on June 27th 1994 to the news that my dad had died in his sleep. I didn't want to believe her, I ran into their room to see cops standing there trying to figure out how to get his wedding ring and watch off. I watched as they got his ring off with liquid soap and struggled to find out how his watch worked. I spoke up through my tears and told them that I knew how to get his watch off, if they would let me I would do it. My hands were shaking so bad as I aproached my dad and grabed his wrist to unclasp his watch. I will never forget how cold he felt.
My mom, brother, our pastor and a friend and I all went out to breakfast so us kids wouldn't see dad be taken out of the house, none of us really ate much. I remember that we went to Village Inn, I don't know why I remember that but I do. When we got home dad was gone, I walked into their bedroom and saw his cross taped to the cable box I ripped it off and put it on so I could feel close to him. I stopped wearing it when the chain broke and I almost lost it. I still have his cross, it sits in my jewlery box, where it will stay. The last time I had it out was at my wedding, I had it in my flowers so he could be there with me.
Most of the time now, it feels like dad was never here, like he was some made up person. he's been dead my entire adult life. Hell most of my childhood years and my teen years. Thank god for that cause I don't think he would have liked teen me. I have changed a lot these last 14 years, I learned a lot about me and how I deal with what life has thrown at me. I'm stronger now too, but have abandonment issues. I know one things for sure and thats, that I am still daddys little girl.

Spring time and Slave labor


Sping has finally Sprung here in Alaska. I say this only because I noticed yesterday that the trees finally have little bitty grean leaves on them. A little later than usual but just as welcomed. Now if only it would either rain or clear off and be sunny, I am getting rather sick of the overcast days, its been this way for the last 3 weeks nothing but clouds no rain no sun just clouds.

So its gotten warmer out which means that Richard and I are starting to go out to the valley to work off the money we borrowed from his parents to help us get into our apartment that we are in now. We went out there last Sunday and then again yesterday. We are building his mom a planter in the back of the back yard. now they own about a 1/2 acre of land so from the house to the back of the lot is a walk and you get tired when you are hauling 50 pound bags of packing sand from the front of the house all the way to the end of the property. We are making this planter out of bricks, so needless to say its an on going process and we have many more trips to make out there. Yesterday I was playing with Charlie(their bosten terrier), hauling 50 pound bags of sand and 80 pound bricks. My mom wonders how I am getting so strong. Lets see, throwing a toy for a dog that doesn't know the meaning of quit, hauling sand and bricks hmmm I wonder. Needless to say my arms hurt today as well as my legs and feet.

Sleep the final frontier

Its 11pm do you know where I am supposed to be??? The answer is in bed, but here I sit talking to Jane through yahoo messenger wide awake, while Richard is snoring in the next room. I'm not the least bit tired which is weird seeing as how I was bored all day and that usually makes me tired enough to go to sleep but not tonight I guess. Plus to top it off I have a headache that won't go away unless I go to sleep. So no matter how you put it I'm screwed. Looking on the bright side at least the cat is leaving me alone. and its peaceful and no complaint from them yet. *knocks on wood*

Its May, its May, the wonderful month of May, OK well what am I talking about I don't know I tend to ramble and make no since when I want to sleep but can't. I will just go on and on about the stupidest things, of course its usually all in my head cause at this time of night there is no one around to talk to. Unless of course you count Jane, but I don't really talk to her I type to her. So its totally not the same.

And so with all this said and not making much since I go in peace, and Live long and prosper and all that good stuff. (and no I don't like Star trek I actually really really hate that show)

Update

So, no new complaints from the people above us, and they started parking in the middle of their spot instead of on the yellow line. But its the weekened and thats when they seem to like to complain so we will wait and see. Hopefully the landlord told them to more or less shove it with the complaints, of course in a nicer way than that.

Poor Richard caught the cold that I am still getting over, it is apparently going around town and doesn't like to go away, it likes to hang on for dear life. I only have a bit of a runny nose and the cough left but they don't seem to want to leave anytime soon. My hearing has basically gone back to normal too I am about 80% back to what it was before I got sick so almost there.

In other news worth talking about. My mom is in Grapevine TX for the next week. She is there for a conference and well mini vacation. Lucky her! I have always wanted to go to Texas but have never been able to get there. Maybe one of these days I will. I also have a spiffy new cell phone. My contract was up with my provider so mom and I went and got new phones and are now on a nation wide family plan so we share minutes between her, Richard and I. Its cheaper that way. So I now have a Motorola Razor and like it a lot, I'm still getting used to it but its so much lighter than my old phone (which Richard has) that I don't even notice I have it till it rings.

the upstairs neighbors

I just got a phone call from our Landlord,Carollee, telling me that the people who live above us called to complain about noise from us, tonight. First of all Carollee isn't worried about it because she knows we are quiet people whom keep to ourselves and try to be respectfull of other people. BUT come on!!!!!
This was the second time they have complained about us in a week. They complained about us last Wednesday for noise too. We had a group of 7 people in our apartment 2 or the 7 people where kids under the age of 5 so yeah they are going to be noisey. What little kid isn't going to be? I even went up the next day to apolagize for if we had gotten to loud and the husband was like "what ever". Come to find out from Carollee he works nights and was asleep yet when I talked to him he was holding a paintbrush in his hands, ummm yeah he wasn't sleeping. How was I to know he would be asleep at like 3pm?? I am up by 9am asleep by midnight at the latest.
It turns out that they where going to move last month but then changed their minds, my poor landlord has had to walk on eggshells around them. They have complained about all of their neighbors that live below them. They think that the whole world revolves around them and only them. I hope they do decide to move it would be better for us and for Carollee.
Since they complained about us again today I decided to lodge a complaint about them, only seems fair right? It is an actuall logical complaint. Their parking spot is right next to ours, so their passengers side is to our drivers side of the car and to our passengers side is two poles that support the car port, She has been parking right on the yellow line or damn close to it which makes us have to park right next to said poles making us fear hitting them. Carollee said she would talk to them about it. Oh and she said don't be afraid to make noise during the day, cause she knows I am home all day, she said its not our fault that he works nights. She also said don't you know be really loud just to get back at them but don't be afaid to make noise durning the day.
Those people are just weird, I told them to let us now if we get too loud and we hear nothing but they complain to Carollee about it WTF???
So there ya go, people these days

Talentless

I wish I had talent at something, anything. I dabble in photography but don't think I'm any good at it. Yeah I write poems but I think they all suck, I cross stitch but any monkey at the zoo could do that its just counting and following directions. My moms friend Deb, now there is talent, she is like the most talented person I know, she designs and makes her own Quilts, purses, vests, you name it she can quilt it. She blows me away with all her talent and here I sit not good at anything besides proof reading my moms news letters for her organization she belongs too. My brother can draw like super freaking good, me not so much. I dunno I just wish I had as much talent as Deb has in her little finger man I would be happy.

The Sick shale rule the world

I have my anual spring cold, Yay me! (not). It started out as just a sore throat then that went away but in its place came the runny nose and cough from hell. I hate this cough it sounds like I am going to die or at least hack up a lung. I get this bloody cough everytime I get sick. The good news is, it hasn't gone to my ears so I can still hear perfectly fine, which is quite nice. For those fo you who don't know when I get sick it always and I mean always goes to my ears and then I have to ask people to repeat what they said and the volume of the tv goes up so I can hear. Now for the bad news, last night I slept on the couch so I would sleep sitting up so my ears wouldn't get plugged up by all the snot. I find its the only way to keep my ears from plugging up. I will be sleeping there tonight as well. I don't sleep very well cause I am not in my bed, next to my snoring husband but I rather not go the dr for meds.

In other news, I awoke to it snowing this morning, yes snowing at the end of April, it won't stick around for long cause its supposed to rain on Monday but still this has been one messed up Spring.

Off to go make a funny face while I take some more DayQuil so I can breath.

The ticking Time Bomb

If you really know me then you know how badly I want to have kids. Its in every inch of me, its all I think about and all I want. I want to know what its like to have a life growing in you to know that you made something so beautiful, so magical. I think about it waking up, going to sleep and time and time again durning the day. I am uber Jealous of the women who are pregnant or just gave birth, I am happy for them but I think why can't that be me, why can't I do that. I know whats stopping me, but I don't know how to change it. My weight is the major thing keeping me from my dream of being a mom. If I just lost the weight I know all would be well. ok I hope all will be well if I just lost the weight. I am going to try despreatly to loose the weight. I don't want to always hear the ticking of the hands of the clock of life slowly ticking away my chances of being a mom.

(I didn't write this for you to feel sorry for me, I wrote it cause its how I feel, I am the only one who can change it. I wanted to share what was on my mind, to show a part of me that not everyone gets to see. this is the part that I hide from everyone, I only let a few people into this part and I figure why not let my friends in on this part, they deserve to know. Please don't feel sorry for me, if anything be happy for me, I am at the point in my life where I desire change and am going to make it happen. It might take a while but I will get it done. )

Tarzan Kitty

So Richard and I have these 7ft tall bookcases, well we got them over to the apartment and got them installed so they don't fall when we have an earthquake. They are in the computer room cause, well thats the only place for us to put them. Anyways, Kramer decided in his little kitty brain that he wanted to get on top of them. I heard him jump up on something so I turned away to see where he was and he was on a little shelf thing I have by the book cases he then jumps up to the brown shelf next to it and looks at the bookcases... He sits there for a moment thinking of how to get up to the top then he jumps up and makes it all the way up there. He hangs out there for a few minutes then with a great George of the Jungle thud he jumps all the way down to the floor and takes off like a heard of elephants.

He is Tarzan Kitty hear him Roar!

stuff people can read if they so choose

Kramer the loving caring cat that he is decided to show his love for me by biting my leg Tuesday night as I was crawling into bed to go to sleep. He I guess wanted some more wet food and didn't want to wait till the morning. Mind you he ended up waiting anways cause I don't give in to him if he hurts me. So now I have a bruise and 4 wounds from his teeth on my right leg, oh the joys of owning a pycho cat.

Richard is now team lead of paint at Lowe's. This is a good thing, more money for us, and he is now a full time employee YAY!!!! and it only took almost a year. Team lead is basically asistant department manager so that will look good if he ever decides to leave Lowe's which I don't think he will cause he likes working there too much.

I am managing to keep the apartment clean and organized. Lots of hard work. not really just a pain in the ass to do. I have also been reading a lot lately. I have read 3 books in like a week. and am still reading. I go through what I call book nerding it, which is basically having my noose in one book or another for days on end. I love reading and have since I was little.

Our car believe it or not is actually running and finally fixed. The last 3 times it was in the shop we didn't have to pay for any of it cause they should have cought all of the problems we were having when it was in the first two times. It runs dang good, and we are thankful for that. we are also going to start saving up some money to get a better car. We both really want a jeep so who knows. It wll take a while but its well worth the wait.

Locking the Family Out

It's pretty damn sad when you have to lock your front door to keep family members from just barging in. One would think that in your own home you are safe from uninvited people walking in through your front door. Boy was I wrong. At 9:04 this morning I got a phone call on my cell, I looked to see who it was cause I was with a friend helping her take her two little boys to the dr cause they were running fevers. The caller Id said it was my FIL I chose to flip the phone up then close it again to hang up the call cause I didn't want to take it. I did this because they only call the cell phone when they can't get us on the house phone and Richard was asleep so there was a reason that he didn't pick up the phone. I also didn't want to get bitched at and asked where we were and blah blah blah. I turn the cell phone off and don't think about it till around 11am. I turn on my phone and call home to see if Richard is up, he is and he isn't happy. I asked what was wrong and he tells me.

You wanna know what he told me? Richard tells me that shortly after the phone call to the house the doorbell rings, he gets up out of bed and makes it into the hall way and looks up to see his sister and their dad in our Apartment! Mind you they only waited maybe 30 seconds before opening the door. Richard yells at them "GET OUT OF MY APARTMENT!!!" His dad doesn't say anything but his sister is all I want my luggage (will explain that later). Richard responds with "I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU WANT YOU JUST DON'T COME WALKING IN UNINVITED" they take her stuff and leave and he locks the door.

I mean come on, thats just rude and its insane that I have to lock my door to keep his dad and sister out of the apartment. His mom doesn't just walk in, what gives them the right to do it? We don't do it. why should they be able too. I mean hello, I could have been walking from the bedroom to the kitchen for something and only be wearing a towel. I'm sorry I don't want my family seeing me in only a towel cause those things are known to fall off at any moment.

The reason his sister needed to get her luggage is this, she borrowed money from her parents and to pay them back she is working it off for them. Basically she is her dads slave till he says she has paid it off and she is paid 10 dollars an hour when working with him so figure 2 weeks. Now she lives in Homer about a 4-5 hour drive from here depending on road conditions. She flew up because her car is well no longer with us. She was going to stay with us while here for the two weeks. She drops her stuff off and goes to get her mom (our car had been in the shop and we were borrowing his moms) and her mom was going to drop her off back here. Well plans changed and she was needed out in the valley till the middle of the week, so instead of coming and getting her stuff she calls to tell me her dad will be by to pick it up in a little bit. This all happened at 5pm on Friday. By the time Richard gets off of work at 10pm that night his father still hadn't been by to pick it up so we said screw it we're going to bed we're tired.

11pm rolls around and there is a knock on the door, that sends the cat running. Yup you guessed it, it was Richards dad showing up for the luggage. We don't get up cause come on its late we are both asleep and well its just plane rude to come hours later to get something that should have been picked up at oh 6pm. He leaves the next day Richards sister calls to ask if he works I say he does and doesn't get off till 10pm she askes if we would be willing to drive half way between here and the valley at 10pm at night, I told her no cause that is putting us at risk cause Richard will be tired and I can't drive. She then asks us to drive out on Sunday to bring her stuff I tell her no because we are not pack mules. That is why she barged in our apartment this morning. Rude yeah I think so. UGH! so we are now locking our door and not talking to his dad or sister for a while.

I blame the drs on Tv

So, I had to take my cat, and my moms two cats to the vet today to do the shots and physical exam. All went well till we asked them to cut my cats toenails. Now he doesn't much like his nails being cut and can get downright mean, so we asked for some kind of med to knock his ass out so we can trim them and keep all of our body parts. Well they took him back and about 5 minutes into him being back there, I hear this very loud very pissed meow. I looked over at my husband and said that was kramer no doubt about it. A few more mintures pass and here comes the vet tech holding my cat wrapped in a towel and she says "I swear we didn't hurt him" I told her it was ok, that we knew they weren't hurting him. We go up to the front of the vet office to pay and I ask the lady up there if she heard that meow and she said yes and that it was one of the loudest meows she ever heard, she also told me that if there had been other pet owners waiting to be seen that they would have looked over at her and would have given the look of What are you doing to that poor animal???

It was rather funny and Kramer had a very pissed off look on his face the entire time he was in his cat carrier waiting to get home.

So cold and not feeling well

Here I sit freezing my ass off still and now not feeling 100%. I think that my lunch did not agree with me at all. I made chicken nuggets and Tequitos yes a very odd combanation that I now Know not to do again, cause both me and Richard aren't feeling all that hot after eating it.

So I now have 4 different Journals going, one here, one on LiveJournal, one on Myspace and one that well no one can read but me. I think this one might just be one for a few select people and it might just be a poem Journal, Haven't decided yet. OR I could do just random Shit on here. WHo knows what the future holds. I aint that entertaining. so we will see what happens on this one, nor am I that good at writing entertaining stuff.

Stay posted more to come

Freezing Wake up call

So Woke up this moring to find that, Richard had stolen the blankets from me and wouldn't give em back. I almost got a black eye from trying to get some so I figured I would just get up and start my day and let blanket hog snore and sleep in his nice warm bed. The turd.
