back on the hunt, winter class registration, and a new way to save money!!

So there have been some things going on at work and Im still working but have decided that I need to look for a new job that will help me more in my future.

At 4:00pm today I will be registering for my 2012 Winter classes. I have never been this excited for school ever. We will be getting the internet at home so that i can study whenever I would like. I am also excited to take a big step forward to my future!!!

Before my lovely boyfriend left for work in Nebraska we traveled north to Traverse City and got a woodstove. I am excited it will keep the house nice and warm through the brutal Michigan winter and it will save us lots!!

apply for another job!!

So our schedules are out until the beginning of November and I have calculate the hours and the money and have decided I should get a second job. I want to get a new car and lots of other things need to get paid like my bills. So a second job is in order and so I school. I'm gunna make a trip to Delta to get all the necessary paperwork done and ill be making a trip to rose city to apply where a friend works. Let's hope it all works out!!!

smelly dogs, houses and angry us!!!

Our lovely dogs decided that it would be a good idea to run off and get into a skunk. We have tworeally stinky dogs and two stinky houses. I managed to get most of the smell out of our house but the guest house (where the dogs have been since it happened) is another story. Thanks to candles and cleaning up the laundry in the bathroom its all just about gone in our house. I have some more cleaning up and laundry to do but it'll be back to smelling pretty in no time. I can't however say the same for the guest house, I have no clue how to get the smell out of the, carpet and couch that are in there, and I love that couch. The dogs on the other hand, will be getting their bath tomorrow after I get a little sleep and hopefully the remedy that I was given will work wonders because it is bad and I miss my little cuddle buddies. The cats are nice to cuddle with but I prefer my dog, she's much warmer and she cuddles just like a person.

Hopefulyl we can find something that works to keel them in the yard and away from the other animals. We tried the underground fence with the electric shock collars but they were not bothered by that at all. I just pray that during the hunting season they don't get shot or hurt. I don't know what I would so without them.

busy,busy,busy

We have been soooo busy lately with work and appointments, everything has just gotten away from us. We started eating out more, we stopped walking, and worst of all we lost ambition to clean the house. This will all end tomorrow, I'm getting back into the diet mode and I'm gunna make time for house work and exercise. Jakes back to work and that means ill be home alone more when I'm not at work and so I have plenty of time to clean and work out!! He deserves to come home to a clean house and a fit and happy girlfriend. I've been slacking so much in the dieting department and that is making me unhappy with myself.

So after work ill be in Flint with my best friend for a little bit and then its home for a cat nap and an overhaul of that house. Who knows how long its gunna take but ill be happy when its done.

So far so good!!!!

So far I liek my new job and Im all certified and ready to have more responsibility at work.

movin on up!!!

So I got a new job and its been 2 weeks since I started and I am already liking it alot. No more babysitting for this girl!!! Well I now work at an adult Foster care home and wow is it different then what I've done before. I give credit to the people who do this their whole lives. I know that this isn't what I want to do for the rest of my life but it is teaching me lots of stuff and how much some people have gone through in their lives. The down side is that I'm not in school yet but I didn't want to over load myself with starting a new job and classes all at once, so next semester is a for sure thing and it'll put me one step closer to my goals in life being accomplished.

We also have welcomed a new member of the family and her name is princess mootau and she's an adorable little kitten. She is black and white and is so cute!

trying something new

So i have had a lot of trouble getting the weight off so I decided enough was enough and got the Jillian Michaels fat burning pills. They already started working and now im well on my way to losing that 50 lbs before my cousins wedding and the holidays.

I am also excited for my 1 year anniversary with Jake, we will be celebrating when he gets back home from Nebraska. I can't wait until I get to give him his gift, I am positive that hes gunna love it. I also have finished crocheting his blanket so he will have that to snuggle up on the couch with and he can quit using mine.

Things are starting to come together and I cant wait til my life is back on track for good.

wedding bells and hostess duties

My cousin is getting married in the fall and has asked me to be a hostess. She would like us to wear black dresses to go with the theme and so I have been searching high and low for a dress that would work for the two of us. I finally narrowed it down and now I need to make a decision. I plan on getting one next week and I will be getting it 2 sizes smaller as an incentive to losing the weight I plan in shedding. So far i ahve gained but I also noticed that I have gained muscle. Now the plan for Jake and I is P90X and Jillian Michaels diet pills, let hope they both do the trick.

45.8 lbs and 5 weeks

So since i was in my cousins wedding last June, acutally it was over a year ago now i have gained 45.8lbs, so i have made it my goal to lose that 458lbs so that I look better and feel better. I also think that it will get me out of this little rut that Im in a have been in since I left my job last November.

As for jobs, Ive have yet to get one and am starting to lose faith, but I know something will come along soon enough.
