Tabs

  • Diet is going very well. We had our first cheat meal. We took my dad out to eat and I enjoyed some cheesy mexican.Walked out feeling comfortable not miserable and even had 1/2 glass of Dr. Pepper. First non scale victory (NSV) this week. My feet/calves arent swelling up any more. Which is a huge deal to me bc I know where that leads. I really need to buy a scale.
  • 9 more days till my new schedule starts. OMG!!!!
  • Today is Barbara, Jons moms bday. I called and wished her HBD. But I had been planning on calling her one day just to talk. I really like his mom. Shes so sweet. And its super important to me to have a better relationship this time around...someone elses mom was a bitch. What? Thats how I feel. But yeah she went and had her nails done...we should have done that together. That would have been fun.
  • I got all 5 seasons of Big Bang Theory on dvd. I cant freaking wait till they come in.
  • I also ordered a big thing of Jelly Bellys to put in my awesome new candy dispenser. Jelly beans are an ok snack as long as I watch portions and sugar intake.
Hmm I think thats about it for now.

Boring Post-Dont Bother Reading

Not a whole lot is going on. Not anything worth blogging about really. Its been 7 days on the diet. I am doing really well. I even lowered my daily calorie intake. I spoke w/ my momma and she still has a YMCA membership so we are gonna go together. I am excited. Shes gonna push me tho, so I better be ready, lol.
I am addicted to youtube now. I started adding subscriptions and omg I love PVP and BFvsGF. But I also watch Tyler Oakley, Jenna Marbles, Max No Sleeves, yeah a bunch...but watching all the old content is time consuming and very entertaining. I love it.
Hmmm 13 more days till my schedule changes. Wahoo!!
Wish I had something more interesting to talk about but so sorry, I dont.

A Lifestyle Change

Jon and I signed up for myfitnesspal.com to keep track of our calories and what we eat. So far so good. Its been 4 days. I can say that I am craving something sweet. This happens to me every night tho. I grew up in a house where we had low fat/low sugar ice cream or popcorn every night. So I am used to snacking. But I lowered my calories yesterday and I am just at my cal intake so I dont wanna go over. Jon is doing really good. I am so proud. He threw away all the candy and soda yesterday. I was shocked. I mean...we can have candy sometimes...sad faces. But its best to start off strong.
I feel like I need to be adding some physical activity to my daily routine. It will be good for me and it will help kick start the weight loss process. I kinda wanna do a gym or YMCA or something that me and J could go to like 3 x's a week. Where he can do whatever and I can ride one of those bikes w/ the back rest. And swim. Swimming is good. I did that one summer and w/i 3 weeks I could feel my stamina increasing. But for now I'm gonna google some stretches or something to so. My arms are killing me.
I dont wanna get my hopes up, but I am really excited about this. I hope it works.

First Day of 2013

I woke up this morning by my love giving me some loving and kisses. What a nice way to start the day. I think so at least. After we rang in the new year, morning style, heh, we decided to go have breakfast. Of course by that time it was almost 3. But ihop was busy. So we had Mexican. Then we stopped and got some non soda drinks until I can go grocery shopping tomorrow. We are starting our "life style change." I'm excited. First day down and I can say honestly I did not cheat. What about you Jon? Did you have any soda??
After that we came home and he played the xbox while I napped w/ him on the couch till I had to go to work :( Had to work for 4 hours. The only good thing about all this is my check. I am gonna have 108-ish hours on my next check. Heck YES!!
I think I forgot to blog about how Jon thinks its an awesome idea for me to meet all his friends and their wife's for the first time ever by us all going to play paintball.

Yay.

NO! No Yay.
I have terrible anxiety over this. lol I mean I did. I am trying to calm myself down. But I mostly worry about being too fat and slow and that my feet and back will hurt too much and yeah...

*Yes I am watching the youtube videos, J, it hasnt helped.*

2013

HAP-PY NEW YEARSSSSSS!!

Last night I did have to work but the manager, Lisa, was offering undertime, so I quickly accepted it. I got to leave at 8:30 and was kinda thinking about going to the family bonfire. I was conflicted tho bc Jon was sick and the weather was bad. During the drive home I made up mind 100%. The people on the road were freaking insane and it was only 9. We would have had to drive all the way to Dickinson and then back to Katy @ like 1am. So we spent our first NYE at home alone...or so we thought. We picked up some take out, ordered a PPV and snuggled w/ Chance on the couch. We actually ended up dozing off. Luckily we woke up at 11:30. We were both bummed out when the "idiots upstairs" came home and then Donna actually decided she wanted to ring new year w/ us. Jon was pissed. Plus then she started egging him on to shoot the rest of his fireworks.
BUT her and Danny wouldnt let up so we all went out, and we ended up having fun. Wish we would have got more. It was def a different experience then my home town. We cant shoot off fireworks, people do anyway of course, but the experience is totally different. You run out to the street, light one, run back up inside and make sure no cops come. But here, leading up midnight and for awhile after it was just going off.
I got my new years kiss and we headed to bed. While in bed we discussed our goals for 2013. Which #1 is our weight. Man this is gonna be tough but we can do it. I think its gonna be slightly more difficult at first and then get easier when my schedule changes and then once we are in our own place it will be fine. We also talked about the past 4 months. It was a nice night.

Anyway, I am looking forward to 2013. Good night

Venting

Man...people just pissed me off at work. We got the official email for our new schedules. Now I have been screwed over and have been patiently waiting for this for...hmmm...6 months. And technically I wasnt even part of this shiftbid. Since I was completely screwed over I got to pick my shift first. Once I picked they pulled my shift out and then sent the shifts out. But anyway people feel like that wasn't fair. FUCK YOU! Get over it. My thing is this, what my schedule is and why I got it are my business. How abut you just worry about you? Now I know I'm nosey too but I dont get ugly. Thats the difference. So...20 days till my new schedule starts. Yay!!

July-Dec

I have kinda quickly started looking my blog for the 2nd half of my year and man...lol

July- My carpel tunnel was really bad. I was in so much pain and my hands and fingers were pretty much numb 24/7. I stayed single and on my dating break. I went and saw a garage apt from a friend of a coworkers. And decided to move in at the end of the month. Celebrated July 4th w/ family at the annual LC Park thingy and then went swimming. My blog turned 1 year old. Kelli had and placed Dylan for adoption. The same family as Reese. I celebrated my 30th bday w/ a fun 3-0 party w/ my fam. Went to Temple and moved into my new place.

August- Got settled into my garage apt. Kelli totaled her car. Basically had no internet and barely any cell coverage. Finally saw an ortho for my hands. And got cortisone shots which took away all my pain. Won concert tickets on the radio. Struggling w/ being single and feeling lonely. Decided to restart my dating profile. Had a flat tire, flat tire, blow out. Someone searched for Dead Guys email address and found my blog. Messaged Jon on okc after he checked out my profile. Gave him my number and texted a lot. Supposed to talk on the phone the night I got the blow out. Got stood up 4 times. But had a great first date with Jon. Dinner at Gringos.

Hmm the 2nd/3rd/etc kisses. And the spark :) Went to his place for the 1st time. I fell in love w/ Jon. Chance and J met. He gave me the Kindle Fire. Spent the night for the first time, celebrated our 1 month and said I love you. Man this month was just all J all the time. lol

October- Reading 50 Shades of Grey kinda w/ Jon. He already read them. Dinner w/ Danny and Donna for the 1st time where Donna started moving me in, figuratively. Decided to wait to move in. Spent my off days at Jons house. Tried to leave for work but had a flat and ended up getting 4 new tires. Thanks babe. Eeesh. Decided to move in together at end of month. lol Got my smash book. I hate going back "home" to my apt on Fri nights. Finally told Juan I was moving out. Riley's Baptism and J meeting most the fam. Dinner w/ my mom and Pedro. Lunch w/ his mom and we went to the San Jacinto Monument and USS Texas Battleship. Dealt w/ the Donna 6 month fiasco. Officially out of my apt. Our 2 month anniversary. Carving pumpkins w/ Krystal. J and K meeting for the first time.

November- Got Chance forever. Did a daily thankful post for Thanksgiving. Participated in NaBloPoMo. The election. Danny went on a coke binge. They threaten to leave and J and I get prepared to be tight $$ wise. Krystals baby shower. Got Guitar Hero. J and I picked out our song. We also found our spot for our weekly date nights. I had a slight freak out but got over it. Had our first Thanksgiving, first at his moms then at my gmas. Bonfire at The Deweys. 3 months!!

December- I have another and the last irrational freak out. I get baby fever over baby Everett. Started Christmas shopping and planning for Jon. Rylands bday sparked a sad post. We got our Christmas tree. Found out I was going to have to work Christmas. Started the 12 days of Christmas. Our first Christmas. And today...our 4 month anniversary!!

Welp... that was the 2nd half of my yearly recap.
What can I say? I am def 100% happier going into Jan 2013 as I was Jan 2012. And the 2nd 1/2 was way better then the 1st. Thanks to my awesome bf. It was really neat reading back over our courtship. lol So sweet. I love my man. Cant wait to go home and kiss his face off and thank him for the last 4 months.
2013 will be awesome w/ him by my side. I just know it.
