It's going to get easier right????

i have been really good these last three weeks with excersising and watching what i eat. It does get easier tho right??? Im soo worn out from my workouts everyday, I guess y they call it a work out but gosh im still sore. I always feel better (on the inside) after my workouts, I just thought it might get a little easier soon. I did 5 miles today, and i have lost a total of 22 lbs so far but i cant wait for it to get easier :) wishful thinking i know

WOOO IM POOPED....

i have started to excerise everyday (well atl least 5-6 times a week), i started last monday on the 5th. I did really well for my first week, was walking at least 2 miles aday by weeks end i was walking 5 miles aday. This week i started walking 5 miles and today i RAN 2.5 miles and walked another 2.5 miles so i still made it to 5 for the total but i tell ya im sooooooo exhausted, my legs hurt, it took almost 30 minutes for my "red" face to go away. But Im happy that i have stuck with it everyday :)

In other news, still no job. I went and applied a few places today, no luck tho. But im just trying to stay postive about the whole situation, the excerise is really helping in this area. I know we'll be okay its just been so long since i have went w/o a job, feeling a little uncertain. I really wanted to just pack everything up and move home for that safe feeling, but my husband and i have had sereval long conversations about all of this and have decided to just sit on our tax money this year, which means no vacations like i wanted but oh well right?....hopefully we will be able to find us a house here this summer and really settle in. I want to be able to go back to school next semester for pharmacy tech. There is a school in Springfield, which is about 45 minutes from here, i hope i get accepted that way i have a career and not just a job. Well thats all for now i think.

Lots of decisions??

I recently turned in my notice at work for a "better" job.... come to find out the day before i start the "new" job I get a phone call that they're just going to bring over another girl from another hotel for the winter instead of filling the postition that they advertised!!!!!!!!!!!! So uggghhhh I have already quit my old job and now have no job because i had orenitation papers and a schedule of when i worked so of course i turned in my notice at the current job and today was my last day there.

Which brings me to all these decisions #1 do i "tough" it out thru the winter and enjoy the time off with my husband and kids and get a job in april when everything starts hiring again ( cause i live in Branson where jobs are seasonal)? #2 pack up and move home to where i have a job and thats where our families are from?

Pros to moving> family, job secerty, my boys love it there, i miss my friends that i have been friends with for 20+ years, that will always be "home" to me,i dont get to see my nieces and nephews grow up, nick has friends there, etc....

Cons to moving> its the middle of the school year, "we" as a family seem happier here, we have made lots of new friends, the tough part is only til april ( but this will happen every year!), we wouldnt only be near my family but his too, which seems to be 1/2 our agurements, our marriage is the best that has ever been since we moved here, its alittle more expensive to live there than here, much less drama here, etc....


Not for sure which we'll choose, just going to try to make the best decision for us as a family. The boys opioion compeletly matter in our decision.

sorry for the rabbling just needed to write it down....

MY first blog of 2009

SO Happy New Year to everyone!!!!!!! I'm totally looking forward to Thursday night, the BCS National Title Game GOOOOO SOONERS! A few things have changed already this year, I got a new job ( I start next monday), i have offically lost 18lbs since Thanksgiving, for those of you that dont know me personally i have struggled with my weight for the last 9 years, in 99 i was at my "skinnyest" point shortly after that summer i got pregos with my oldest son and then life started and i let it get away. Never again will i weight over 200 lbs and yes this is huge for me, i have two sisters that are personal trainers so i get "the talk" about how lifes not getting any shorter but moving faster everyday, so i decided to start 2009 off right with a weightloss goal of 50 lbs before June 1st.

My H.S. reunion is this summer which is always a great motivater, i havent seen lots of these people in also 10 years and i dont want to show up FAT!!!!!!!!!! So hopefully i can reach my goal and be thin again, i dont need to be "skinny" just a healthly weight. So one of my friends and i went walking today we walk alittle of 2 miles in an hour and we're gonna meet up tomorrow too.

Even though i feel horrible (i have that stupid "head cold") i will get up and go walking tomorrow again m-f for one hour and on the weekends me and the boys will get outside if its not too cold for them. We have a great workout place here it only cost a dollar to walk for as long as you want indoors on a track.

We had a wonderful christmas with all the family. Now im looking forward to a "girls night" back home with my girls. I miss home everytime i go but we as a family are soo happy here. The trips home also make me very appericative of my family and friends everyone is always happy that we're there and we usually have a wonderful time, instead how it used to be feeling like a chore just to go out to my parents i dont mean that in a bad way just when we lived there it was only 45 minutes so we would litterally go every weekend i didnt realize how different i could feel about going back to that small town in Okla. out in the middle of no where. lol..... Hope i feel better in the morning so i can get more out of my walk :)
