Got through the 4 day weekend

    So a start of another week so far not to bad. I have started cleaning drinking my coffee now telling the world how the past few days were. Not to bad my teenager got her math grade up yaaa she is no longer grounded and got to go to the lock in at the bowling ally had to pick her and her friend up at 1 am not fun. But she had a good time that is important she had been grounded for so long now she is free watch out world he he! She did have one miss hap at the end of the night she was sick all night after that. Not sure why but nobody else was so she maybe ate something bad. The rest of the weekend we did not do much but hang around the house. One accomplishment was I walked 6 miles this weekend Tater got to walk with me Kota went one Sat with me on his bike it was the warmest day. The warm weahter is far and few between but you know when its warm everybody is outside cant wait for the warmer weather this AZ girl is missing her sun.
    I see how the Army is good and bad I get to see a lot more of my husband so that always nice. But at the same time I like my quit during the day. He does come home for lunch most days kinda a nice surprise when he does.
   I got my AZ CNA in order mailed off my Kansas app now waiting for my test date I have a job waiting for me soon as I get my Kansas CNA I hope they send my test date soon so I can get it done and start working. I might be taking over the Finance job in the Frg for my husbands unit we will see. I liker the leader we had lunch on Friday was so nice to get out and finally meet someone. We are going to Zumba on Thur. so I have someone to workout with now yaaaa. I'm down about 8 pounds so I'm still working on it. It didn't come on in a day so It will not fall off in a day not giving up.

Week 3

So far I have lost a total off 7 pounds so far Yaaa me and still working on it! I have lunch today with the Frg leader so we will see how that goes. I had my interview yesterday but they could not offer me the job till I get my CNA in Kansas so I hold my life in the hands of the AZ State Board of nursing  so I might as well die because they suck. Talk about a cluster ____ they can never get anything done I have had to deal with them for 7 years so far and have never had a good experience with them never. But I will try to be hopeful urg!  We went to a flick and float the other night with the kids that was fun the played Ice Age 4 had pizza and snacks and the kids got tot swim in a heated pool indoors of course its way to cold for any other kind here. All for the whooping price of 10 bucks for a very low income family we are till I get a job that was great we got to do something without us breaking the bank. Trust me it does not take much to break it. Justin as been on live fire training all the last three days he got to come home early yesterday Mon we didn't see him he got home so late and had to leave again early same tonight. So Ill see him Thur. Well here we go to another week hope to lose 3 more pounds Time to workout!

Day 8

So I am happy to report that I have lost weight 3 pounds is not to bad so far. I have been to the gym twice this week and I go back tomorrow. I'm finding I like going to the gym its time out of the house I'm getting cabin fever so getting out of the house is nice. I have an apt. with The community collage here tomorrow. It is kinda frustrating to put my life on hold with my edu but I guess I will find something to do while I'm here hell maybe ill finish school here! Cant wait to go back home to visit even though I just left I miss everyone! 

My findings in being a Army Spouse

So far I have been one for a little over a year now and I'm finding it is very lonely. We have great networking but as far as people meeting I really don't think it is done. They all talk on the computer but never in person. I withdraw a lot sitting her in my home not having any friends to go visit and have a conversation with. I am wondering why there are so many of them that say I cant go because I have a little one. Let me tell you my kids went everywhere with me back in AZ. I'm really missing my home and Family. I miss going to dinner and being able to stop bye. Sunday coffee with he in laws when I could go. Im not a shy person and finding any friends is getting difficult as well as a job. I read all kinds of spouses comments and so forth on the web pages what ever happened to the military life every one always talked about that everyone is a big family im just not seeing it they are rude and hateful it makes you wan to stay in your home and not go out.  

Went to the gym today that went good and im making something new and healthy lets see if  the family likes it!

Oz

Went to the oz museum yesterday! It was tiny but kinda fun Dakota liked it not sure if Lacy was but it was something to do so she was happy.It was kinda cool to see all the stuff they made for the movie I never realized how much was marketed. So it was a learning experience all the same. Dakota was not to sure about the life size statues of the characters but he got over it after awhile. Day 3 of training  my self to eat better  Justin and I went to dinner and I did good. Stayed right on track no problems just reminded myself to keep on track and I did one hurdle concurred. Go me lol!! 

day 2

Well so far today has gone good was busy running errands took the dog to the dog park. Played the Xbox with Dakota and did laundry. Tried a new dish made some shredded beef turned out pretty good. I'm still finding the gym I want to go to but will have one by Wed. The kids will be back in school and I will have lots of free time. Hopefully I will be getting a call for an interview soon.

Day 1 of my Weight loss challange

Day 1

Today I went to weight watchers to get the new 360 program and start making some changes in my life time to get my fat ass off the couch and feel better. I wont say how much I weigh yet but I will say I have a long way to go to get there.  I'm hoping I will find someone to go work out with we will see if that happens one thing I have learned is other military wives talk about meeting new people and doing stuff but they just talk on the computer what ever happened to human contact looking someone in the eyes when you talk to them. But I will hopefully meet some people. So every week I'm going to make a goal for myself this week was go to WW meeting goal completed so I guess I need to make another to keep me motivated. Goal for this week find a gym on post and start going 3 days a week. Stay on track with good eating habits. So I am my own cheerleader now Go me!! 

Snow everywhere

Hello,

    Well we got 5 inches in snow yesterday. The kids were loving it yesterday while it was coming down could not keep them in the house freezing and all. Good thing they have warm snow clothes Lacy is the only one who does not have snow boots. But hopefully we will be getting some soon. We built a Snowman today kinda a ninja turtle, caption America hybrid. Dakota was the supervisor he tried to tell us what to do it was cute. Me and Lacy had fun making it the snow was still very flaky didn't stick very well that's why it was so small as you can see in the pic. Justin had fun this weekend had to put new brakes on my car front and back. Also trying to get the heater running in his new old truck it works a little but not warm enough for me. But he likes it so I guess I like it too. Still looking for work nothing yet so frustrating! Well off to bed for another day talk to you soon.
