This week is exceptionally difficult. I've done extremly well considering. Wednesday of last week I really decided to amp up my motivation and start treating my body like, well like a temple. I need to be healthier and I think the biggest thing is I need to realize that I deserve it. My body is for me to take care of, and hopefully as I begin taking care of it and it beginning to function properly maybe children will be in our near future, who knows.
So the first week {last week} I was doing this I went without soda, sugar, and processed foods. I felt amazing and lost a little under five pounds! Can you believe it? So far this week {my weeks start on Wednesdays} I've messed up a couple of little times, but still feel great and am still drinking water like a fish..
Speaking of fish, we have a new family member, his name is Xavier and he is a Blue/Purple Betta fish {or he was when I left this morning}. I'm terrified that I'm going to come home one of the days from work to Minnie sitting on the back of the couch or on the floor {she knows better than to get on my counter} with Xaviers tail sticking out of her mouth. I'll post a picture of him as soon as I can figure out how to take a picture of a fish in a bowl... I'm pretty sure it's about like taking a picture of anything.
Our lives have started to fade back into a little bit of normalancy, well as normal as they can for our little family our little Dinkypop {Double Income No Kids Yet Plenty of Pets} family, or as my father would say a couple of Dinks :) We have fallen for SIMS 3 - which is great considering I've always been a huge SIMS fan. I think Douglas and I will go as SIMS for Halloween this year, where I don't know but we'll still dress up.

Another Day Goes By
I'm home. I'm finally home. I never thought I would be, not saying that I didn't enjoy visiting with my family because I more than certainly did, it's just good to be home. It was good Thanksgiving I didn't take but a couple of pictures as my camera battery died. But when I get the time I'll upload the ones that I have and post them. Life is good - a little plain - but good. Work is well work, I still enjoy it which is a good thing as some days I wonder about some people.
I. love. my. Zune. only when it's having good days. It's been resetting itself after the *so-called update* and doesn't remember where it was and in general it's being cranky, so when I get home tonight I think I'm going to un-install my software and then re-install it and see if that helps, it also doesn't play podcasts which is a little annoying so that's another problem to figure out.
California, what an interesting place to live. I'm getting used to it, however I'm not made for this state. I would love to live close to my family but don't think that will happen any time soon. Hubs has made it clear that if I said tomorrow, "Lets pack up and move to Georgia tomorrow" he would be packed before I finished saying it. I think in about a year it will be time for a change a new chapter a new move.
On to other things, VACATION. Guess who is going to Hawaii in March for 11 days?!?! Yup, that is right it is me and Hubs! I'm very excited, a little nervous but very excited. We got a great deal with Hawaiian Air. Before we go I'm hoping to be down about 30 pounds (I'll keep you updated). I know that I'm *allergic* to carbohydrates, isn't that joyful? But I actually feel so much better and have lost some weight by not eating them like I used to. I have maybe up to 50g per day but that's about it mostly it's just meat, cheese, and veggies that I eat.
Not too much to update on today, just wanted to give a little view into our life today.
