Great Day 9/ 2nd test of the week DONE

Today was NOT a great day.
Well I am thankful for being alive, for having my family and friends and for my job :)
But I am not thankful for the way I ate today :(
We had a bridal shower at work for a co-worker and I had not one but two pieces of cake :(
So it was NOT good
I took my 2nd test of the week today (my 1st test for my advanced cardiopulmonary a&p class) and did like crap big time...... got barley a C on it :( GRRRRRRRRR
Hoping that with DH being gone doing his thing in the day time I will get my nose in the books and really study ..... I need to get through these classes to move on in Respiratory training
So raising my water bottle to more studying
Have a great night and Keep On Keepin On

Great Day 3&4/Hubby cooks!!

Yesterday was school and relaxing here at home :) Took my BIL (this ones stays with us) to the bank to see about getting some credit started for him. Hoping this will show him to slow down and bit and get real with life If that makes any sense??!!?!?
I have a Test on Monday and one on Tuesday so will try to fit in some studying this weekend. I have to work this weekend though..... Sunday I was suppose to be off but crazy me said I would work 9:30 to 13:30 to help out day shift :( What was I thinking beside time and a half pay LOL Honestly I dont work the OT for the pay .... I enjoy what I do and dont mind going in to help out. Not that the extra money wont help out here at home though :)
This morning DH and I went for a mile walk around the neighborhood. I kinda like this time together just out walking and talking ..... think it took us about 15 -16 minutes. Got home and gave him a hair cut :) THen he made me spinach enchiladas YUMMY and even put some in my lunch for me for work :) What a I to do when he does that for me :) He can be soooooo sweet :)
Starting next week we will not see alot of each other..... with him going to CDL training from 7 am to 5 pm and my work hours not ending until 9:30....... I have to say I am glad to be getting some ALONE Me time again but I am gonna miss having him around alot :(

Great Day 1/Math Test

Good Morning World!!!!!!
Life is amazing and God is good !!!!
Started today off with a Math test at 8am this morning. First problem had me confused and after five minutes I skipped it and went on to the other 19 problems. Finished the other problems and came back to Problem number 1 and figured it out YEAH ME !!!!!!!
I think I did good on the test will find out when I get out of work (it will be posted on coursecompass)
Got home early cause I skipped my second class (got out of Math 45 minutes early and did not want to stick around) OK OK honestly DH is at WIA program getting his vouchers for CDL training school and I have the house to MYSELF that is the real real reason I came home early. Cause in all honesty I could have stayed at school and studied while waiting on my next class to start LOL
So I got home and had
Breakfast:
1 1/2 cup banana cherrios
1/2 cup 2% milk

Now I am off to pick up my MIL from the doctors (DH dropped her off on his way to WIA) then it is home to make a good lunch and have dinner done for the guys in my life :)
OY I love this being home ALONE time (has been 4 months since I have had it)
Have a great day
Keep On Keepin On

New Starts

New Starts!!
MMM Have you ever really thought about that?? Do we really have new starts?? Or are we starting over at the same place?? Or are we just starting over what we already know and it is nothing new at all???
Things have been happening in my home this summer. Good things. God has really truly worked miracles in my life and in the life of my DH. This is where I am today ..... not starting over..... not just dog paddling in what I already know.... But in the end I have the true power to do what I want with me life and live it as I see fit. I stumble and even crawl from time to time but, God is there to carry me or walk with me through it all. He has opened so many doors, put so many people in front of DH and myself. God has/is working his ways through us strongly.
I am still working full time and am in college 3/4 time (9 credit hours) DH "Finally" got word that he is to pick up his vouchers for CDL training school tomorrow :) YEAH!!!!! So he will start in a week from tomorrow (on Sept. 21st) and should have his CDL and be back to work by the end of October first of November. Not to sure how my house will get cleaned or how food will get cooked, laundry done..... (once DH is in class 10 hours a day and not home to do it/or help) but I am sure God will show us how to get it done and still stay on top of other things.
My weight has held steady since we came home from vacation No loss No gain just stuck. I will not be starting over.... or having a new start but I will be putting what I know to use and continue to move atleast 5 minutes a day with 2 trips up and down one flight of stairs on the days I have to work. I will continue to eat breakfast and ENJOY it :) I will continue to eat salads and work on my fruits all the while chuggin my water :) I will continue to be thankful for all my friends in life (no matter where they come from) I will be thankful for being alive and having a job I truly enjoy..... I am thankful for the men in my life but most of all I am thankful that I know God and have him in my life :)

Comin and Goin

Comin and Goin
Have you ever been there?? Have you ever felt like you are meeting yourself comin and goin?? Oy Oy Oy I have surely felt like that alot lately. God is working overtime in our (mine and DH) lives right now. He is working great things and we are finally letting him :)
I have been wondering if I should keep bloggin or not..... I do believe I have something to offer someone out there and more then that I have something to offer myself ..... I seem to do better health wise when I blog so bloggin world I AM back :)
I started back to school two weeks ago..... taking 2 classes at college and one online....ALOT of studying and finding time to study :) or trying to any ways :) My little guy started kindergarden this year.... I am helping in his class 2 hours on Tuesdays ...... and LOVE it :)
DH has not started CDL truck drivin school as of yet. We are still waiting on WIA (government agency) to sign the check (voucher) so he can go..... they are paying for it as he was laid off and is able to get this due to needing to be retrained :) We talked to his WIA counselor this past Thursday and she said it is taking a bit longer because of him having had knee surgery and they needed the paper from the surgeon saying he can get back to work and has NO limits ..... they are shooting for the 21st to have him in class and on his way :) I am way hoping and praying this IS the date he starts....... He has been so bored around the house waiting and waiting .......
I have managed to get back on track eating wise but am LOST big time on exercise...... I am managing 5 minutes a day ...... guess that is better then nothing right??
Have a great night and Keep On Keepin On
