Looking at joining the local SNAP fitness. Down side is it doesn't have a rowing machine, up side is I may get a discount or something through my health insurance.

Realizing your girlfriend doesn't want to spend her birthday with you....
Do you even have the right to call her "your girlfriend" anymore?

So I had this awesome mileage reimbursement check and I was going to get an ipad mini but now I've decided, new nike shoes, my polar heart rate monitor and some water bottles sound so much better. If I'm going back to Spokane to visit my family I have to lose these 20lbs I've managed to put back on since moving to the south. Otherwise, I will never hear the end of it when I see my family.

Looks like I will mostly likely be back in Spokane the first week of August. :) Looking forward to hopefully meeting up with friends!

I've come to the conclusion that I am an extremely bitter person. I really need to fix this and I definitely need to quit focusing on all my past mistakes and holding on to those hurts.

My sister is sending me her bodybugg to use so all I have to do is get the web subscription for the bodybugg program so I can start tracking calories. I think I'm also going to invest in a polar hrm.
This will give me a good base idea for planning my nutrition/meals.
Well off to work I go. Can't wait for Monday when I have three days off to celebrate the last 2 amazing years with E.

Started packing my lunches for work instead of relying on the dollar store for lunch. It's kind of nice pre-planning meals. I definitely make healthier choices on what to eat this way. After all any form of fitness isn't going to do me a whole lot of good if I'm not eating clean.
Still debating between a fuelband, for it or bodybugg. They all have their pros and cons but I really want to get a more accurate idea of how many calories I'm burning throughout the day. My fitness pal is great for tracking food intake and simpler fitness things but it doesn't account for daily life things such as grooming dogs. Plus, some dogs are more of a workout then others to groom.

Ahh well off to work I go.

Looks like I'm not giving up on my woohu just yet.

E and I's 2 year is coming up in a little under 2 weeks. I'm pretty excited for the present I got her. While it's not jewelry, I have no doubt she will love it!


On to other news. Finished Academy and now I spend my days grooming dogs. Debating whether I should spend the $3k and take the courses for cat grooming as well. After all, I do prefer cats to dogs.

Well off I go to compile a bunch of short (under 30 min) but by no means not brutal, home workouts.

"We're all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that's all. "

It's been awhile since I've had any desire to write on here. I have several other blogs I post on, on a more regular basis. Quite frankly I'm beginning to wonder why I even keep this one. I don't think anyone besides me actually reads this one and while that's fine by me I don't see much point posting something online if no one reads it. So, it's time to bid woohu farewell.

If the "promised" management position doesn't come through I'm thinking in August Erica and I may be moving back to Washington or Oregon or maybe even California.

Being beyond sick puts a real damper on the first day of the new year. That being said I'm going to start tomorrow as the new year because I refuse to still be sick tomorrow. I dislike making resolutions because 98% of the time they don't get realized but I am going to make goals every month and do my best to achieve them.
Goal 1 is to reignite my love/hate relationship with Jillian Michaels tomorrow. Just YM because of being sick and then it will be on to 30DS, then KB&T and then BR.
Goal 2 is to try and be more organized in my every day life. From recording all my finances (keep track of bills and income) to even being physically organized and clean.
Hopefully I will be checking in next month to say I have made these goals and am moving on to new ones.

As bad as previous living situations have been they were better then this. The room mate and I are constantly at odds. Whether it's her cheating on her husband (He's stationed on a ship for a year in the Navy) with BOTH her ex and her boss (tho boss whom makes all of us uncomfortable and is also Married) , mind you with her it is most definitaely not an open relationship with her husband nor does he know she's cheating. She won't divorce him because then she loses the $1000 every two weeks the Navy sends him to spend on whatevr she pleases.Or, her rubbing it in Es and I's face that she "makes" more then us and can do what she wants. Or even her dog that is a worthless pos that no matter how much training she gets still tears the house apart, chews everything that belongs to anyone into shreds and barks non stop almost all day. Oh wait, I forgot, that E and I generally take more care of her dog then she does and I'm allergic to the damn animal.

I wish the girlfriend and I could get the fuck out of here.

So, two weeks ago I got promoted to Pet Care Lead, then last night the Operations Manager called me and said my Store Manager wanted me to do a panel interview today for possibly either Support or Pet Product Manager. I find out next week if I got which ever position they think I'm best suited for. It means I will most likely be moving stores which saddens me but asdfghjkl; I've only been with the company for 4 months and I already am considered a candidate for management.

Itching for new ink.

Opinions needed:
Cephlapod with tentacles forming infinity squared or
Cnidarian with tentacles forming infinity squared.

Either way it will be on my left wrist in white ink.
