I'm gonna do it

Well, this Friday, I am going to put this old house on the market and see what I can get for it. Yes, I know this may not be the best time for it, but now I am just 'testing the waters' so to speak. The house has been good to me. This is my first home . I bought it back in February of 1997. Yes, when I live in houses, I have a tendency to stay for a long time. I really want to sell this one and then I am ready for an upgrade! I have been in this one for 13 years. I have no mortgage, and when I upgrade, I willl have one. Just the thought of getting a bigger home excites me. After I sell this one, of course.

Hello, been awhile since I posted here, figured that I had better write something. I visit my surgeon tomorrow. I get to sleep in for a change, LOL. This is gonna be short as I need some sleep now. This is the busy season. Happy 4th of July 2 days late!

Yess

Well , last week I went to Litchfield , Minnesota. It was a short trip. Nice but short. Long drives through Missouri, Iowa, and then Minnesota. Many rest stops along the way. It was business. We picked up a trailer. People in Minnesota are very nice and polite. I like the laid back-ness of the state. The people that we ran into were so sweet and intelligent. We stopped at some very cute antique stores along the way. Most of the things I like were waaay out of my price range-for instance, 75.00 for a pair of salt and pepper shakers. Still, I like to look. I did not get any pictures taken along the way-we were driving for sometimes 8 hours or so. We stopped in some very cute and friendly small towns along the way, and saw about a thousand of those Casey's General stores. I loved the trip, but I was also glad to get back home.

Milestone

75 jazzercise classes as of tonight! Yay

Arachnaphobia

I think I have arachnaphobia. I get creeped out when ever I see arachnids on television, on say the Discovery channel. I have to change the chaznnnel really fast, or I will have nightmares. It isn't so bad that I cannot leave my house, but things do get uncomfortable for me for a while. I have to look under my chair, under the table.

Yes...

I am still here. I just have not been posting in this blog thing too much. I have not been terribly busy in the evenings for the most part. I just can't think of anything to say. I visit youtube alot. Even learned how to make meth. Not that I would ever TRY making meth. There is a song on youtube that explains how to make it! I have no interest in that sort of activity, I just think it is amazingly funny how easily someone can find out things on the internet. I guess that I may have too much time on my hands on most evenings! . Well, I am still going to exercise classes-as of this writing, I have had over 60 classes. Last week, I went to my surgeon's office. I gained 2 pounds ::blah:: Days can be busy for me. At least they are starting to be. I am contemplating going to a movie this weekend evening. My SIL is having a birthday get together this week, so I am going to get her a gift.

Yes I am still here

Well, I figured that I had better start posting here again. Some things happened last week, that I won't go into, and I am rather depressed and sad about them. Right now I feel worthless, about 3 feet tall. I can't talk about the issues here. I really messed up and I feel like an idiot.I feel terrible.Maybe I should fade into the background. That is all I am going to say about that. I am still going to exercise classes. I had my 50th class last night. When I hit 100, I get my picture taken. The class, and some of the fellow exercisers are kinda peppy, which is good, but unfortunately for me, that is not my personality.I am supposed to have my pic taken with one of the instructors. Maybe I could ask them if we could just skip the photo as sometimes I do not photograph very well. Well, maybe not. That is a ways down the road. I could change my mind.

Hello and Happy March!

Well Spring has come to Kansas. Yay! But I am sorry to hear about the folks back East and Up North still covered in snow. That is awful. They have been without power. I am sending prayers their way. As for me, I am still attending exercise class. It has not gotten any easier!!!I am told that I am still losing weight, but I can't yet see it. 4o pounds is no small loss, but I have a ways to go. My goal weight is 200 pounds. I can hold that weight very well.

Itemize your taxes

I just did my taxes last week, and it really paid me to itemize. Normally, I have to pay both the Feds and the State some money. But for 2009, I get some back since I had some considerable medical expenses . I have also included some tax deductible charitable giving as well. For 2010, I plan to itemize as well, if I can. I am saving all of my reciepts from dr visits, dental, lab work, anything that requires I pay something up front including medications and copays.

Well..

Kind of took a vacation form posting here. I had my 18th Jazzercise class tonight. I really like it. And I am finally making some headway with work. Only problem now is that I fear something may be wrong with my Toyota. Oh and I could use some more money. Shit, everyone does these days. I go to work every day and then I go to class at night. Life is sweet.

Learning.

Well last week I started an exercise class. I am sort of big and clumsy. Well, the other folks there seem to be really nice and understanding. Kind of hard for me to keep up with them. I love the exercise, I love the sweaty feeling and I love the feeling that I get when I am done, too. I went 4 times last week, 3 are the regular times and the 4th because I had Friday off. (Yesterday) . Last night I went to see a film, and I sneaked in some food, which is healthier food tha n the theater had anyway. I took too big a big of my hard boiled egg, and I got abad case of what felt like heartburn. I learned my lessons! Anyway, I weighed myself this a.m. and I am down 15 pounds from 2 weeks ago. Yay.

Exercise

I start an exercise class next week. Yahoo.!
