the post in which I talk about everything, and nothing.



Above video was taken about a month ago - I was in the passenger seat while the Ex was driving and turned around to that. It was hilarious. Luckily for me - my cell phone never leaves my hand (except for when I'm posting here, dear World Wide InterWebz!) so I recorded it, and am posting it for your viewing pleasure. (I've also just figured out how to get the videos from my phone to the computer! Don't laugh!)

I have an ultrasound in the morning because my doctor and I are concerned that I could possibly have ovarian cysts. I'm sure it will turn out to be nothing, but I'm still going to hope for the best. Also have an appointment on Friday for a Well Woman visit. Yay! NOT. But whatever.

Still no definite word yet on whether or not the Bestie will have to go Reserves - but she's considering making the transition to AGR (Active Guard Reserves) anyway. Apparently there's a slot on Redstone that is open and her contact at Redstone is trying to hook it up for her. I need to get on the ball and get cleared for duty. Not to mention I need to lose like 4% body fat, and get back in shape. Ok - so I have a lot to do. I just need to do it now.

5 days smoke free and I smell great - I feel like a crazy woman, but I smell good, and that's all that matters, Right?

I told you that this was the post in which I talk about everything and nothing. Didn't I?

Spring Cleaning

I've decided that I need to do some personal "Spring Cleaning" so to speak. I know I'm a tad bit early, but - this needs to happen.

First, Ms Single Mama has inspired me. She's on a self-imposed Man Diet. I think I will follow suit. I seem to have a bad habit of picking men/boys that either need to be fixed, or are just all around "bad boys". So - I'm going to go on a Man Diet. I'm not sure how long it will last - but for now, I'm good on men.

Second, I need to lose some weight. I've heard before that if you put something in writing you'll feel more compelled to accomplish it. So - I am now going to devote at the very LEAST, 30 minutes a day to doing some type of exercise. I could set up a PT schedule for myself, but I don't see where I would be able to devote an hour each and every day to exercise. 30 minutes is doable because I can keep Monkey entertained with either destroying her bedroom or mine.

Lastly, I am going to quit smoking. If I am going to exercise I'm going to need to be able to breathe, so - I'm going to have to quit smoking. This will be a little harder than the other two, but I need to. Not just so I can exercise - but so that I can live a little longer.

I think these two things will help me feel a little better about myself - which I could use. Feel free to cheer me on.
