Jan 10 What I Think

I have lived in Ohio my whole life. I have traveled to many beautiful places and seen a lot of things. What I can not understand is that here in Ohio the weather its self can change in a matter of days or even in minutes. Last week we had snow and tomorrow it is going to be 63 degrees they say. If that’s
not global warming I don’t know what it is.

I got to school this morning a bit earlier then expected so I got a better parking spot. Well I think it is. We will see when I go to leave later. Thursday is my long day but not as long as last semester. I have my geology lab today. These always help to explain the foreign language that the class seems to be speaking. It is interesting to me to see how one minute I really don’t get it and the next a light bulb goes off and just like the big bang…..BAM! We can only hope the Bam comes quick.

At home there are usually 2 dogs, Maggie and Luna. They are visiting their other mother this week and it has been really quiet in the house. Kinda creepy really. I look forward to their return tomorrow. They seem to keep things calm at the house.

I received a new potato head yesterday. Kim and the kids got him for me. He is a little tater. Not sure what to name him yet but he is dressed like Elvis :0) Of course they had bengal ones on sale at Kroger so I got one of those while I was there. Maybe I need an intervention. Na he makes for a great blog. If you havent checked it out you really should: www.mrpsadventures.wordpress.com

Guess I should find some breakfast before I get this party started …….LOL

Have a great day!

Jan 9 Homework and life

New Semester New Work :0(

It’s really not that bad yet but it has potential to be. Just gotta stay on my game, I can do this right? Right!

Last month I went to the eye doctor and found out I need bifocals. Sign of getting old. Or as I like to say staring at the computer way too much…lol I picked them up today and I really can’t believe what a difference that they are making. I can see the computer now up close instead of having to lean back…who knew.

Still not doing what I want with the water which is my own fault. Just need to do it. I will get better and I will be stronger for me. On the 21st I have a Doc appointment to get meds refilled so I went and had my blood drawn for a full panel of things. I will have those results the first of next week. Will be interesting to see where all my levels are.

Well Back to the homework I go!

Till next time….

Jan 8 A new semester

Looks like I will be attending college another semester….YEAH! I am trying to be excited. I have never been the school kinda person. Socially yes I am so there but academically….Not so much. It’s not that I am doing bad, I just feel like I have to do better. My own worse enemy really.

I could download one of the syllabus’ I need. The study guide is a crossword puzzle. I am not a fan of these at all. But they are worth extra credit and I need all the extra credit I can get.

I will arrive early. I hate to be late. It all going to be ok. I have my bag packed except for snacks and all is well.

So off I go. I’ll let ya know how it goes!

Jan 7 What a week

Here it is Monday and my to do list has been growing and growing.

School starts tomorrow and I went to print my syllabus’s and well lets just say it is going to be a long semester :0(

I am still struggling with water. You would think tha tthat would ne an easy thing to do…I thougth it would be but it is not. I need to come up with a better way. I did put a water bottle in my book bag. There is a water fountain near both my classes so I figure if I care the bottle I have to fill it up and drink it right. That is my story and I am sticking to it. Baby steps.

Last year I started sending random letters to friends and family memebers so that they recieved mail that wasnt a bill. I did this all year last year and was suprised at how touched people were that they recieved a hand written note. So I started it again this year. My first letter went out this morning.

All in all I am doing well. My photo a day is working well. It has been fun and I have a few partners in crime that help me out. You can check out the pictures a day at the top of the screen or you can check out my littel buddys blog at mrpsadventures.wordpress.com.

Ill update you on how the classes are going soon.

Wish me luck on the water and with school!

Jan 5 What’s on my kind

As I laid in bed this morning I got to thinking about how many things I want to change this year. My weight for starters.
I went to give blood yesterday something I want to start doing this year and my red blood cell count was low. I can try again in 4 weeks. They gave me a list of things to eat to get it up :0( I will try again.
My picture a day is working quite nicely if I do say so myself. It’s fun and starting to get a following.
Still need to drink more water. But don’t we all.
Guess I should get busy this morning. I’ll try and blog more later.

2013 is my year

What I wanna get done in 2013

So here I sit on the second day of 2013 and I have a few moments for myself so I thought I would jot down a few things I would like to see happen in 2013.

1) First off I am going to blog at least once a week…More if I can 2) Take a picture of Mr P everyday for a year. He is my traveling companion and yes it is Mr Potato Head. 3) Eat Better 4) Get back in the gym 5) Walk the 5k breast cancer walk in Oct 6) Ride my bike more 7) Lower my BP 8) Write a letter ever month. This was a hit last year so I am going to do it again :0) 9) DRINK MORE WATER. There is an app for that…waterlogged. It reminds you to drink water at all the times you want and even keeps track for you what you consume in the day!

Those are the first 9 off the top of my head. All doable and with in my grasp. Check back with me and see how I am doing. Blogs could go in all kinds of direction. Thinking maybe even a video blog from time to time. We will see if I can fit that in. I just wanna get back to taking care of me and sharing y story where I can and really just blow off some steam if I need to.

I will leave you with this: Always remember you are braver than you believe, Stronger then you seem, and Smarter than you think!!

Peace and Love,
