health insurance!

I HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE, I HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE, I HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE!

YAYYYYYYY! I haven't had Heath Insurance since Brian's EAS date in August. It's like it came at the perfect time being how sick I am, that it's day 6 and I'm still not getting any better. I can officially say I carry the health insurance for our family :) Oh and being employer sponsered is fantastic! I feel so blessed.

oh the sickness

Upper Respiratory Infection? Never had one of those.. until this winter. Boo. My eyes are dark and swollen, my nose is bright red and I can't seem to quench my thirst. Oh and I'm wheezing. We shall see how it goes, all I need is rest, rest, rest oh and fluids. Be back later.

update

So I gave up on the 30 day challenge. It just didn't do anything for me anymore. So I'm sorry I've been MIA for the past few weeks.

Brian's J-term ends tomorrow. He's got a big final for his Theatre class and then on Monday starts Sociology, English and Theology. I'm so proud of him and really think he's going to pull an A out in this theatre class. Not bad for not being in College for 6 years. Things are slowly starting to be normal again. I'm seeing a counselor, hitting the gym 4-5 days a week, eating good, changed my work schedule around and things are finally starting to become busy there. If only it was Spring and it was warmer out our life would be great. Brian and I are ready to be outside, playing with the dogs and just not be cooped up inside. We're over it! We're ready to finish up our taxes and get those sent off. We're thinking of taking a honeymoon (it only took 4 years!) and that makes me happy. More positives than negatives lately and that's quite a change from our life the past 6 months. Just need to take it a day at a time.

Day 13 & 14

Day 13 – A picture of your favorite band or artist.

Right now it would be Kesha. I love listening to her music when I am in the car and she's the first singer on my ipod music when I hit up cardio at the gym. I can always get in tempo and it keeps me up beat!

Day 14 – A picture of someone you could never imagine your life without.

My brother, Matt. My sister, Megan and My husband, Brian.

It helps that all three of those people who I feel that way for are in this picture. I don't know what I would do if anything happened to either of these three. They are my favorite people in the world, the three who know me better than anyone and know would be there for me anytime, any place. I love you guys.

Day 10, 11 & 12

Day 10 – A picture of the person you do the most jacked up things with.

Honestly I don't do jacked up things with anyone. I'm a pretty boring person. So I'm going to leave this blank and maybe I'll come back.

Day 11 – A picture of something you hate.

Gas prices these days are freaking rough. Going through a gas tank a week is becoming ridiculous.

Day 12 – A picture of something you love.

I love watching the sunrise on my way to work in the mornings. It's quite beautiful. Nothing like watching the sun come up or sun go down.

My New Years Resolutions

2010 was a big year for us with Brian getting out of the MC but I'm really hoping that 2011 is a year of good communication, and growing as individuals as well as a couple.

1. The big one for me? Losing 50-70lbs. I'm so sick of being this size and not being happy. I'm going to concentrate on myself for a few months and really get where I want to be.
2. Brian starting college next week and excelling
3. Going back to school next fall to work towards some certificates to advance in my current position at work
4. Paying off all of my school loans - 16k worth!
5. Brian paying off his SUV and buying a new vehicle for himself
6. All the traveling I'm doing this year. Texas in March, NC in June and hopefully a cruise at the end of the summer as a late (yeah 4 years late) honeymoon
7. And hopefully growing in my position at my new job and a pay raise as we grow as a company


Wishing all my readers a safe and happy new year! May your resolutions stick and may you all be healthy and well!
