Dementia is a Crutch

Good morning readers! I am having a fabulous day-as usual! Yay! I get to see Max in less than four days and I am ecstatic. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

I have begun to crack down on my health/fitness routine. Its time for parts of me to go! Ha! I'm silly. Several years ago after I got off of depo provera (the birth control shot) and had gained quite a few pounds, I did the South Beach Diet. It worked really well and I felt wonderful. My body felt and looked healthy. Unfortunately, I went right back on the shot and gained it all back over a period of 2 years or so. Blah. So here I am once again, not on birth control and ready to face the mad world of the SBD. This time however, I will NOT go back on the shot--You can't make me! I won't do it! (<-- this is me not budging)

Wish me luck!

In over my head?

I was gone for two weeks from school and now I'm bogged down with homework, exams, quizzes, etc. I have so much to do that I can't even concentrate on one thing! I just keep staring at the paper in a daze. Blah!
Part of me wants to take a quick cat nap to energize myself, but I'm afraid I won't wake up at all! I am tired.

Frozen Nose Hairs

I am assuming that this is the correct web address for my photos from Ft. McCoy. If not then I will edit this later. Yay!! Well lots has happened since I last wrote. I went to Ft. McCoy, WI for two weeks for military training. The night I returned, Max flew in from Houston! Yay! We had a fantastic weekend. I will be going to see him in less than two weeks and I am thrilled!
Fort McCoy was freezing! It was an average of 35 below zero (with wind chill) for the first week we were there. It warmed up to a balmy 14 degrees by the time we left. As soon as you walked outdoors, your nose hairs froze and you could feel your skin losing circulation. It was awful. Despite the terrible weather, we had a good time. We had a fair amount of personal time to do with what we pleased. So, Sarah, Journey, and I took advantage of that to have WAY too much fun. (Pictured above are the 3 ninjas of Ft. McCoy). Anyhow, it was a wonderful bonding experience for everyone.
Max and I had a wonderful but short weekend together. We ate fried green beans, made pancakes, surveyed the jewelry market, compared fabric softeners, and enjoyed each others' skin! ;) Max also met a few of my friends: Jeff, Kevin, Sarah, and Journey. We also went out for breakfast on Sunday morning with Jacket. That was nice! I miss him terribly already and will be impatient for March 2nd.
The End.
