Last one for the month of Feb 2012 crazy!
1. Managed to workout 3 times this week which is very good. If you count Sunday thats 4 but I dont. Also only one bike ride and it wasnt much it was just around the neighborhood. I still find it sad the one thing I love to do and used to do a lot is so hard to do when we got nothing much to do. Haha. Life is funny that way you have no job and no time to do anything even if you are home all the time. But wiifit and MJ game never gets boring and I think I am finally starting to at least feel and see some of the results :)
2. Well it was not a good week for sleep for me. I got 11hrs Sunday night/Monday afternoon waking up at nearly 5pm. Which is crazy. I never sleep that much unless I'm sick or took something to sleep (or for aches and pains). It was no reason at all. After that it was crappy sleep. Going to bed, taking hours to fall asleep and then not staying asleep enough. Worst was today as last night I laid in bed for almost 5hrs of not sleeping finally getting about just under 2hrs but have no clue how true that is. Really sucks. Cause it was late, there was NO reason for it and I was tired. I still am btw so bed early for me for real soon (its not early sadly but hey I try). Hope this week for lots of good sleep even just 7 or 8hrs a night of SOLID sleep is good!
3. Had fun with the libraries this week again. Got to see Carlsbad (cant escape there without some MORE cds even when I turned in most of mine). OS is different as well I left my card there on Wed night and went today to get it finally (they HAD it on Thur) and its lost. I have the keychain version so its not a big deal but a bit annoying. I do love reading nothing is changing that :)
4. Went downtown on Thur night it was SO much fun. It was the Sunset Market which is like a farmers market but for half none food stuff, lots of eating places, all this stuff is set up every Thur night from 5-9. We havent been to THIS thing since May 2010 thats a long time. It was something similar when we did the pirate thing last year but thats the closest to it. Mom gave us each $5 so we got gelato ice cream, plus I got Rainbow some dog treats (for $1) and my sister got a cactus kinda plant she is growing now and will plant in our backyard in a few months. Fun times!
5. Not so fun is my uncle who is in the hosptial for a heart attack. He has many issues going against him (and things I worry about sometimes for my future) including not being healthy weight and under stress. Plus I guess heart issues run in the family. He wont be out now till Tue and its just not great. He is stable but I worry. I can NOT handle losing another relative. (Tops off with at least two of my other uncles dealing with cancer issues ugh). So keep him in prayer if you read this before he gets out...
I'm tired so thats all till next week. Flower event is on Sat and rain tomorrow (Mon) so this week could be exciting :p
Every weekend I write down the top 5 things that happened to me from the week it ends on (usually Sundays). Stole/borrowed the idea from author Sarah Dessen. Very fun!

Weekend 5 (Sunday, February 19, 2012)
1. I managed to do some wiifit this week and some Michael Jackson game. But only one bike ride again. I dont know why something that was so easy to do before takes time to do now. It sucks. I still love biking. I want to go back to doing it a few times a week its the best! But got some exercise in this week. We almost did a climbing gym on Friday. Its FREE for the first visit but found out that they charge $2 for shoes. So wont be doing that now till after we get money from LL so thats another month away at least. Gad times going too slow...
2. We had rain this week. Amazing crazy rain. There was some on Monday. But Monday night it came back and it was freaky. Very windy and very raining pouring for hours. Then just stopping. Giving Tuesday a nice break (glad!). Wednesday was worse. It was so bad I thought it was a hurricane. It was very very impressive. But no thunder or lightning. Super windy pouring very hard. Its addicting. I love rain (when I'm not out in it that is haha). So yes rain we got some this past week woohoo!
3. My tax money finally cleared. I am still very disappointed I went from $209 last year to $66 this year. Plus I have to loan my sister some of it cause she still doesnt have her tax stuff and we are running out of money. Ugh. I managed to get some sheet finally for cheap with it $6 not $22 as planned so good. And my little drawer unit for my room so ALL my clothes are now in there including my race shirts which up until two nights ago were hanging out in the garage which was annoying not being able to see my clothes. I really need to work on that garage this week. When I start getting paid again from LL I have to get also with my tax money & extra: Breaking Dawn dvd, Zumba wii game, & People Yearbook (I get it EVERY year tradition!). I recall one year I used my nice sized tax money to get my wii and my wiifit. My Mario Kart. Over the yrs my tax money has gotten me by. My favorite ever was 2009 when I had almost $900 for tax return. It was a NICE time for us!
4. I hate valentines day. And this is my last time talking about it till next year when I hope I will have someone and I wont hate it so much. Its my moms bday so it was nice spending a day with her when we havent in 5 yrs. But it still made me hate the day. It was hard to not think about me not getting a stuffed animal, flowers, something with a guy I love. So I am glad its over. However we had a fun day. Went to La Jolla it was beautiful and partly cloudy perfect weather. Saw lots of pelicans and the beach. Then lunch/dinner at Norte's fine mexican dinning. Yum.
5. I miss Arizona. I am suddenly really overwhelmed with missing them so much. Stupid fb I blame it. It said that I checked in to Arrowhead Towne Center one time why not like it? Oh and here look where else you checked in. Suddenly I'm looking at a map for Tempe and I am like oh no. I miss my old state I miss it so much. Its times like these I miss it more than others. Sigh. Miss you AZ a lot :(
that is all...

Weekend 5 (Sunday, February 12th 2012)
1. This week I didnt workout as much as I wanted to. My workout days I was trying to do workouts every day which did not happen. I only worked out on Tue & Thur. With a bike ride on Fri to the store and back. I am starting to notice things like being more strong, being more sore and losing a little weigh at a time. So I love working out and will try to do it more this week!
2. We have changed storage units with success. Last Fri we switched to a 5x10 instead of our 10x10. We was going to go for a 5x5 but so glad we went for the 5x10 as we really filled it up. This week we spent Mon, Tue and finally Wed emptying out the other. Now we have a credit for next month and if we figured it correct we should only owe $26 by the 13th. Very nice! Now to go through all the stuff we brought back and try to put that garage in order its a mess lol.
3. Friday night I didnt get enough sleep only around 5hrs. It was horrible and I was SO tired yesterday I was like I will go to bed and get like 9 or 8 hrs. I ended up going to bed thinking I would get 7 instead. But I COULDNT sleep. I dont think I fell asleep till around 6am and got up at 9am therefore I only got like 3hrs of sleep. That means for two nights of sleep I only got 8hrs total. I only got a 1.5hr nap today and stayed up when my ipod got messed up (I think its better shall see right now) but still. Tonight I HOPE for real sleep cause this cant go on I am so tired :(
4. I figured out after some calls the other day what I need to save for this year. I have not looked into my tattoo yet (that I figure will be around $200 by Dec). But to get my 3rd hole in each ear re-done (may wait on this) and my ear lobe pierced on top of the left only will be around $44. That will be in Dec. Then to get Rainbows shots updated & her license in April I need $80 (more for her allergies which I havent priced yet). And I want to get all the cats updated too so thats $33 for 3 a total of $99. So I want to do it June, July & August. So end of time at LL I should have all the pets up to date. I like numbers, I like planning and figuring stuff out. So this is fun. Numbers also confuse me and lose me so its a win lose :)
5. Today is 10 months exactly till my "big" thing. Its not gonna be marriage far as I know (I truly hoped on 10.10.10 it might be wedding I love evens and three like this wont happen again like not while I'm alive!). So tattoo and ear or just ear shall see. Either way just 10 months till my big thing. Woohoo.

Weekend 5 (Sunday, February 5th 2012)
1. Hard to believe today marks 4yrs since our "real" first Tornado Scare in TN. I wont forget that day. It began with bad news the night before saying it might happen. We had gone to our Borders to get $1 calendars and then to the one in Brentwood too. Then we went to our Walmart and my mom was telling us they said there was a tornado in Nashville. We didnt have a weather radio or tv. So it was mom or regular radio only for the news (stupid stupid). I believe we got our weather radio shortly after this cause they only cost $15! Anyways. We gathered all we loved and owned in the bathroom including my hamster Tinkerbell. The cats werent there just our stuff computers, etc. I didnt have my wii back then so it was like computers, cameras what not. (Later on I had to put in there my flipcamera, dvds in the 2 cases and even my wii when I could!). We slept downstairs with all the windows open in the house as we heard that is "what you do" (later learned it doesnt matter if you do this and we never did it since!). We only had 2 cats, a hamster and a dog (it was harder when we got the other 2 cats). At around 2am we had fallen asleep and the sirens blared outside. It came from MTSU which was near us the siren which we had NEVER heard before one of them like was very creepy. I said to Mel still asleep "is that a torando siren?" which she freaked out jumped up and ran to get the cats. Then we opened up the back door our last thing to open and gathered all of us in the bathroom listening on the radio. The siren only went on for a few minutes but we heard them say on the radio that "the storms had stopped before hitting Murfreesboro area" thank God! Still for 2hrs we had thunder & lightning and wind it was very freaky storm even without the tornado. The next day I had to work and I had barely slept and so had everyone else. No one had lost their houses but someone had their roof torren up a bit, trees down, etc. Everyone looked as tired as me what a night for tornados and us for our first real scare.
2. This week my 2 bike rides were small. I did one by myself on Tuesday cause I wanted a ride but my sister didnt. I rode around the neighborhood doing a little exploring. On Thur short on time we did a simliar one together for a bit longer got a bit farther. It was still fun I love bike riding its like flying! Also did some wiifit and twice now done some yoga (and once strength training) I was doing pretty good every day till Fri when I couldnt sleep and havent done it since (back at it again Tue this week). I love working out and though the wiifit doesnt notice any weight loss my pants are getting more loose so I know its working :)
3. Well we found out this week that we are NOT going to be working at LL till the 9th. On the 30th we both applied for jobs posted that day got all excited thought we would be back at it this week already. After all I was told end of January or mid Feb and yet...nothing. So we contacted them next day to find out that March 9th they bring people on but was told that was for new people rehires should be back sooner? And yet I got an email telling me to contact my supervisor who told me March 9th as well? I am still confused. Next few days I am going to contact them for more info. I did my taxes this week as well ($66 back what the heck I got $209 last year and made LESS hours hate CA taxes!!) and will have to live off that till March 23rd my first check. SIGH. Praying they still bring us back sooner going bananas here but will make some good use of my time till then I HOPE.
4. Been a crazy busy weekend. On Saturday me and sister went down to the Carlsbad Flower Feild. volunteer orientation. We will begin doing this March 3rd till May 13th so its not very long but still will be working it around our jobs at LL. So that should be fun. It sounds like a wonderful thing to do. We have our tshirts and name tags. I am glad they are waiting till March as we dont have enough $$ for gas till then!
5. Saturday our cousin Amy and her husband Andrew came and hung out. It was a lot of fun seeing them as we havent since last June. Our first time since they moved out here. We've seen our cousin (her sister) Jenny twice since moving out here. So we hit the beach for a little bit. Then home for my moms fried chicken, and dads biscuits. Watched Rat Race. Was a blast. But so tiring. Then today my good friend Nikki came over. I havent seen her as well since June. We went to Sammy's Woodfired Pizza and it was yummy especially dessert. Then went to a beach near by and was there a bit walking around collecting shells and just relaxing. Beautiful day today it was like 73* love it!! Came home then she left.
Till next week...
