Too Soon

This morning I get a phone call from Erick telling me that there is very good chance that his unit might get deploy for a year to Afghanistan. He just got back in October... Come on!!! I have been preparing myself mentally for his next deployment, but I didn't know that it was going to be so soon. This, once again, shots all of our plans to hell, but I really should not be bitching so much, this is just another wonderful day in the Marine Corps! He said he'll find out more information next week as to when exactly he'll be getting deployed.

This is not a good way to end my week.

As for my exercise - My entire body hurts! muscles that I didn't know I have hurt, and I'm happy that this is happening and that I'm actually sticking to it! yay for me. I guess his deployment will give me more time to get into shape and look hot for when he comes home. Still, I don't want him gone so soon... :'(

The wonderful world of exercise

Last week I signed up for a six week exercise program that it's sort of like a boot camp. The neat thing about it is that it's really like a personal trainer!!! The price was VERY reasonable so I'm really happy about that. Saturday was the my first day with the trainer and I only lasted all of 12 minutes, yup! completely out of shape! Monday was much better, I actually completed all of the two minute segments that they wanted me to do and today I can't move. Every muscle in my body hurts like hell, but I know that it's all worth it (it better!).

In other news, this weekend will be a busy weekend for me. I decided to move back home with my mom to save up some money so I'll be spending my weekend moving all my furniture back home. I'm going to try posting some of it on craigslist to see if I can get some cash for it. It's really good furniture so I think I should get a good deal for them.
My poor Erick is stress the heck out with work and it kills me that I can't be with him to at least bet there for him. The worst part is that I wont see him until Valentine's day weekend which is two weeks away. Poor fella :o(

Now that I've started this exercise program I'll try to keep the blog more updated with news of how I'm doing and if I feel confident enough I'll post some pictures up.

2009 here I come!!!

So the holidays were actually very enjoyable. I spend a lot of time with my family and with Erick who came down from Camp Lejeune. I really have to cherish every moment we have together since we don't really get to see each other much. Me living in Atlanta and him in the Marine Corps station in Camp Lejeune, NC. Anyways, I'm feeling like there is so much I want to accomplish this year, I'm actually breaking the lease on my apartment and moving in temporarely with my parents to save some money until I move up to NC with Erick. I'm hoping that by May I'll be a Mrs. If it doesn't happen, then I will look into buying a home here in Atlanta by October. Aside from working on loosing weight, I'm working on creating a budget that I can actually stick to. Last, but not least I really need to get my ass back in school. God help me!
