Ranting

Waliacha officially moved in and is already paying rent and contributing to OUR home...

Bad news is.....yup, Waliacha was laid off again yesterday. I just dont understand the Unions at all! He was called back for almost a month and told he is laid off again - soooooo stupid!! The union is doing NOTHING for him at all! The boss told him they have projects but until the money is released they cannot buy materails and start work - sooooooooooo they will call him back as soon as they can! SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOO stupid!! Oh well, nothing I can change :-)

I am back on track with the gym and weight watchers and happier than ever with (newly unemployed) Waliacha - on the good side, at least he can cook dinner every night! :-)

Yesterday at the gym I met a girl named Chris. She was trying out my gym for free as she used to go to the one that the shooting happened in 2 weeks ago. She thinks she is going to join permanently and said that her gym is reopening in a few days....kinda sad but, if I did classes there I would not want to go back for sure!! What do you think? She said she did not think it should re-open and I tend to agree with her...what do you think???

Anyway, happy thursday everyone - almost to Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New Recipe

The report is: Day four of eating reasonably and working my butt off is going amazing! I did not cheat once yet - have not even wanted to...I am again sooooo motivated which is great! My new roomate is being sooooo supportive and helpful which is also great! And - tonight is date night - so, what could be better?!?!?!??!

I tried this new recipe for a type of raspberry slushy that I was linked onto by Kek. It was amazing!!!! It is three simple ingredients and really yummy...if you are looking for a frozed treat - try it, it is great!!!



Here is the recipe.

I forgot the vacation pics again today but will definitely post later today.

Have a happy, safe and enjoyable day!!!!!!!!!

Left for aerobics class and did not come home......

OK - first I will refresh you with this blog entry from November....
http://annstersdomain.blogspot.com/2008/11/x-mas-tree-found.html

Now, what happened last night. At approx 8:15...in a latin dance aerobics class...a wacko came into the room/shut off the lights and began shooting. So far, they have confirmed 4 dead and another 11 injured seriously...plus I would think the other 25 or so in the room will be scarred for life after the ordeal.

So, I need to say.......thank you thank you thank you...to the high pressure salesman that turned me off from the gym - without a doubt I would have been in that class.....

God wink and massive gratitude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, massive prayers for the people and their families and friends that had to endure any of this horrible crime last night...from the families to the witnesses to the injured and deceased...all of my prayers are with you!!!!

Back from vacation!

I am officially back from vacation at the beach - Stone Harbor. WOW-it is hard coming back and getting back into "real life". I want to go back to the beach!

We had an amazing time and I will post all the pics as soon as I get them off the camera! :-)

I am also back on track to finally lose the rest of this weight. I have been on a little hiatis and it is time to finish and then maintain. I am doing on-line weight watchers and will be done (if I stay on track) within three months. VISUALIZE!!!!!!!!

It is a way of life and I have really been slacking...

On a different note - it is offical.

Walliacha is now my roomate...he has moved in and I even gave him closet space.

This is definitely an adjustment for me, but an awesome one!

It is sooo offical that at lunch today I will be mailing his change of address.

Hopefully a new HAPPY chapter of my life...and he will continue to be a part of it for all time-One day at a time!
