Coffee with evaporated milk reminds me of Belize!!! Good memories!!! :-)

I tried to write out a well rounded meal plan to stick to. I also know I haven't been writing my calories down here.

Pretty much I have been slacking. I think part of it is that I'm not that comfortable being 137 or higher. Which today is 137.0

In a week is a friends birthday party and she is having everyone float down the river and then have a BBQ at her place with a hot tub. Which sounds great and I know I will be the thinnest out of everyone I just don't have a good perception of what "I" look like. Also, when I drink the "F" word comes out... Fat. I'm pretty sure I won't be drinking, I will offer to be my husbands DD.

For today I have everything planned out and written down. All I have to do is eat it and check it off in my actual calorie diary.

Sorry I haven't been around.

135.2

Well, I know it's about ten times harder to lose weight without exercising. Duh. But, on the 21st of August I start classes and with that the Nursing building is right next to the gym!!! So exciting! And, because I will be a student I will get a free gym pass!!!

I think the truth is, I'm a gym rat.

On Sunday we went to church (yes... I wife has to do what a wife has to do and I bribed my husband with sex - tmi!), then we out shopping with a couple of friends. We are either very planned shoppers or we apparently don't shop much compared to other people. We went out with this other couple that CAN SHOP.

I took my friend over to Barnes and Noble while the guys were looking in this hunting store and I bought a NOOK. I had the money and I think they are cool. However the first night I had it I read a book on it and after I finished the book I went back to my good ol' paperback. Then the next night I brought it to work, on my downtime used it, and then I came home, slept, and went right back to Barnes and Noble and returned it. For $250 I had better be in love with what I bought, not just think its cool and okay.

I told my husband and he said, "You are to in love with your real books and that's okay". He is pretty much right and I didn't even think of it that way.

My vices in life... coffee, hardback books, jeans, and blankets. I am a creature of comfort.

Last night I got called off since our computer system was down. Some nights I love not having to work. For school I am taking 17 credits this fall so I am only going to work two 13 hour shifts a week. Finally, I got it approved through work. The downfall, I am working Friday and Saturday nights. Which, I have had the past year working Mon, Tues, and Wed nights without school or homework. Pretty much just being able to live. I can handle working weekends for awhile! Especially for the opportunity to go to Nursing School!

Let's see what more I can ramble about... I think that's it for now. Just wait a couple of more hours I will have more to say.

Oh, on Monday I went out to lunch with an old friend. You know when someone isn't in the most constructive relationship and after awhile (4 years later) you can see how that takes a toll on someone. My friend, he has been with this girl for 4 years and he seems not necessarily sad, just settled and has no opinion for himself. I knew him before the relationship and it's a world of difference. I told him he seems calm and unhappy. Apparently his girlfriend freaks if he doesn't email her or text her every couple of hours. I don't even know what that would be like. Knowing you are going to have a fight if you don't "check in", that's crazy. (in my humble opinion).

However, I don't think to many guys would appreciate my independence in a relationship other than my husband. I think if anything ever happened to my husband and I, I think I would stay single for a long while. I don't know and I'm glad I don't have to think of that now.

Now I will quit yapping.

Later.

133 can you hear me? 132... are you home? 130... you exist right?

134... go away, I'm done with you.

Facebook is generally a good thing, however after your second night of a 13 hour shift and seeing pictures of 2 girls who used to be your best friends with the old group at one of the girls going away party... doesn't mix. I cried myself to sleep this morning. It's not even that I want to be close with them anymore, it's just the fact that I miss it. It's been like this for the past year and a half and I've tried everything I can to fix it, we just grew apart, plain and simple. Sometimes it's harder to have a friendship go dry gradually rather than with anger and quickly. Because, you still have hope and if that doesn't work, that still hurts.

I love old historic neighborhoods and my grandpa was from Detroit, so I was looking at houses there (not that I can actually move) and this mornning I came home and my husband was like, "I watched this show and it was based in Detroit... that is the craziest town and people are so rude, I never want to go there" I was thinking... bubble busted.

For weight loss, I need to drink more water and exercise. Yep.

For my health.. I need to not work nights.
