YESSSSSS!!!!!

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it!!!!   We leave for vacation tomorrow... Today will be about packing and getting everything ready for our trip... I will post pictures on instagram of our trip maybe facebook, but I don't know how to post them from my phone to my blog.. Were heading up to Mount Rushmore then over to Seattle..We have so much planned I hope we get to do it all..We will be gone for 10 days, but some of those days will be driving time.. I love road trips plus we will be in my new car.. The weather in Seattle is in the low 80's with no rain, so it will be perfect...
I only lost 5 pounds in the whole 3 months that I have been super good at my exercise and watching what I ate..I think this is just where my body wants me to be..
Well I got to get going and run all these arrands for today.. Hope everyone has a great week!!

Almost vacation time

I'm counting down the days.. Vacation time is almost here.. 

Cole's eyes are healing well. He went back to regular duty on Monday.. Doctors still don't know what caused it..

Jeff and I started a new diet.. Well kinda.. Jeff still eats what he wants, just not as much.. Its hard for him.. Like the other day he grabbed 3 packages of cookie snack packs that are 140 each and 16 ounce's of chocolate milk... I took the cookies away and told him only one, he said two.. So I gave in.. That was still a really big calorie snack...but hey its a start.. We are also drinking this cinnamon and honey drink first thing in the morning and right before bed.. Its suppose to break down the fat.. Its says you will notice inches off before the weight..At least it taste alright...

I had a surprise visitor Saturday night... Temple and Aaron and his girlfriend and Temple's little girl Jaylee.. Aaron is here visiting from college , he visited us last year too..He turned out to be such a great kid...He just got a job working at a coffee shop across the street from Sony studios so he is pretty excited about that.. He was told Will Smith comes in a lot...I of course asked him to keep his eye out for my crush..Of course he is about to go make a movie, but it could still happen..Temple was Temple still the same... I feel sad for her...

Well thats really all I got, not much goes on around this house...Oh except our garden has grown so much we have a hard time getting into it..

Hope everyone has a great week.

Its been forever

I know , I know its been a while..Lots of medical stuff going on with the family.. Jeff's grandmother had to have three stints put in her heart, one stint in left leg, one balloon in right leg.. Two of my aunts had to have surgery due to breast cancer.. And then Cole had to go in for emergency surgery for his right eye... He hasn't had in problems with that eye in a year and then bam.. The doctor has sent out an email to the doctors in Boston and Pennyslvania about Cole's condition.. Maybe one of them know whats going on.. All the doctors in Texas do not..I'm really worried about him..Oh and now he will have to have catorack surgery on left eye in July.. He is actually looking forward to that one.. Perfect vision in one eye..
We are getting ready for our vacation.. We leave at the end of June.. I'm so ready..
Still exercising and dieting of course.. Only lost 5 pounds in two months, but I have lost inches. I can see the difference in my clothes..
Really nothing fun has been going on.. Just hanging around the house, saving money for our trip..
Today Jordan and I are going to the movies. Tonight I'm going to my baby brothers sister's graduation at the Junell center.. Thats it.. My life is pretty boring right now.. I know boring is good, but sometimes I feel like life is passing me by..

Oh great news my crush and that cheater finially called it quits!!!!  

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Been a While

Things are going well here.. Not much to write about.  Cole's eyes are healing, but he will have to have the catorack surgery later this year..Jordan is now 16.. Cole will be 21 in June.. My babies are growing up.  Jordan is now taller than me and finially weighs more than me..He is pretty proud of that fact..
I have been eating okay , but I exercise 6 days a week.. I'm only weighing myself once a month..I don't think I'm losing much weight, but I can tell that I'm toning up..
We hung out at the river yesterday with Mandy and the kids.. I got a little sun.. I felt drained when we got home and went to bed at like 9.. I don't know why I didn't drink any alcahol at all.. I guess my body isn't use to be outside for hours in the hot sun.. Odd , I use to always be outside, now not so much.. Jordan and I do plan on hanging out with Mandy and the kids more at the river this summer though..
Jeff was approved for the vacation we requested.. I'm so excited.. We will be gone 10 days..
Well thats all I got.. Hope everyone is good..

Nothing Going On

My life right now has been pretty calm..We did go out to Mandy and Cory's on Saturday.. Jeff was off and we ate and drank and played washers.. It was fun.. Honestly I can only handle Mandy for so long when she is drunk, especialy if I'm not drunk.. I have been trying to watch my beer intake, because vodka has less calories I try to drink it instead.. I had a bout 4 and half beers and then I was done so I could drive us home..
Cole's eye is healing well he goes back to the doctor on the 9th.. He will have to have catorack surgery when his eye is healed..
I have been exercising and using my toning video for three weeks strait..I have not gotten on a scale in those three weeks.. While we were at Mandys she told us about going to see a doctor in Ozona that perscribed her some diet pills.. I thought about it, but I just want to do it the right way.. The last pills I took was a waste of money, so I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing..
Jeff has been working in our garden on his days off.. We have onions , but nothing else is ready yet..
Jeff and I have been getting along great and everything is going really good..
Hope everyone is doing good.. Have a great week...

Very nice time

Jeff was off Thursday and Friday and we had a great time.. Thursday we just ran our errands and chilled with a few drinks at home.. Friday we went grill shopping... I have been wanting a new grill for a  couple of years now.. Our last one caught on fire way too many times so now it has been used as Jeff's storage room for his smoker utinsels...I have been using are George Forman grill and it was just so hard to clean that Jeff finially told me to throw it away and we would get a new one.. So Friday we went looking and found one at Lowes that was Jeff approved...It took him and Jordan all day to put it together , but its done and I can't wait to cook on it..He bought me a inside cast iron griddle that use on the stove also... that will be great for veggies , and for when the weather is too crappy to use the outside one.. I used it yesterday to make bugers and I really loved it...

The dealership didn't call me in to take my car back to get the seat repaired so if they don't call Monday I have to.. I hope they call , so far they have been fantastic about all the repairs..

I have been using my toning video and exercising regularly and watching what I eat.. except on Jeff's days off I splurged.. My body is spazing out I started my monthly a whole 4 days early.. Normaly I would not exercise during this time , but I'm going to push through it and do it.. I want this weight off.. I'm so mad at myself for gaining weight.. I had maintain the same weight for years well within 5 pounds and I want this extra 8 pounds off.. I'm trying super hard because I want to be skinnier when we go to Washington..

My dad came by to visit yesterday while we sat outside and Jeff and Jordan put together my grill and he had so bad news..My Aunt Betty which is my Dads older sister that lives in Washington has been diagnosed with breast cancer in both breast..They need to be removed , she is also having trouble breathing so they checked her heart, we have bad hearts in this family, but her heart is fine the doctors want to check her lungs to see if the cancer has spread to her lungs and she is too scared to have them do it.. She is also not sure if she wants her breast removed or just see if they can treat her tumors.. The good news is my Aunt Cindy that has had breast cancer and had one removed and has been healthy for 7 years now is living in Washington now and can talk to Betty.. They are sister-in-laws... Betty is 70 years old and very active , her and my uncle are always traveling and just living life...Please pray for her..

Hope everyone has a great weekend..

Semi good news

Cole's doctor appointment went well.. His eye is healing and he gets to go back to light duty work on Monday.. Only daytime driving and no driving company vehicles.. He only can see out of one eye that is why..He goes back in for another check up in two weeks..

Those diet pills were a waste of my money as far as losing weight goes , but I have noticed I have lost inches around my belly and hips.. I wish I would  have measured to begin with so I would know how many.. Its not much but I would think at least 2 inches.. I only got to exercise 3 times last week..

As for my car I got it back on Monday and my driver seat was ripped, so now they have ordered me a new one.. It should be here on the 12th then I can get it fixed...The dealership has been really really nice and helpful with this so hopefully it will get done quickly..I have gotten three calls from Chrysler (the big dogs) first about the recall repair that was done and now about my seat..Boy buying a brand new car makes people kiss your ass..I kinda like it :) 

Jeff put in his vacation time request yesterday. I really hope its approved.. I can't wait to go to Washington.. We have decided to drive instead of fly.. We are going to take the northern route which I have never done before.. We have always went the California route, so I'm excited about seeing other states..

Well thats all I got.. Hope everyone is doing good and has a great weekend..
