What a week!

This week was a little bit on the CRAZY side. Last week we had 2 of our agents quit, so this we was super busy making sure someone was covering our leads. Not to mention we had 5 contracts come in! Two of them ending up not coming to terms and one of them I negotiated myself! Start to finish :O) YaY me! By mid week we had a replacement for 1 of the girls, and we have another agent starting class on Monday. I hope with these people we will be able to get to our goal of 25 million, b/c if we do I get a company car! Whoo-hoo Me!

The big kids are still doing swim lessons on Tuesday and Thursday. So those days are crazy, not to mention Jason also has class on Thursday, and I keep E and A those nights. I feel like I'm constantly running. No rest for the weary, right? I need to get up and do my running in the mornings. Doing it at night seems to disrupt my sleep patterns.

Yesterday the car started acting up and by last night it wouldn't start at all. This morning Jason and Grampy took it to Sears and sure enough it was the starter. He also said their is a belt going bad, but that's a problem for another day!

In good news, Jason did his FASFA stuff and we qualify for max pell grant next year which means less loans!! Yeah! We will need it since VA decided we have to pay back the $3,000 advance out of pocket. Initially they had said they would take it off the back end of the benefits. Somebody somewhere decided that wasn't good enough and they thought they should take it back in increments of $750 per month! WTH? We only get $1,000 per month in benefits! Jason told them flat out if they did that he would have to quit school and he would call his congressman(I still think he should do this). So they "worked" with him(aren't they gracious?) and they are going to take $250 a month from our benefits until it's paid off. What a crock. It can never be smooth with the government.

Speaking of, we are still waiting on our taxes. damn injured spouse form. We have no idea what they are paying to DFAS, if they are going to pay them off, or what. Hopefully it will come soon. My dryer is about to die!!

I'm becoming very...Eh, about my blog. I'm not going to delete it or anything crazy like that. I just feel I don't have much to say anymore. My life is so mundane that who wants to hear about it. And, I'm so personal, and don't want just anyone reading it, so I don't advertise. So, what's the point? I'm fairly honest and straightforward on here and I just don't like everybody in my business. I'm going to "revise" my FB friend list too. I deny ALOT of people, but some I accept then block them from my news feed b/c I really don't care. I'm not trying to be mean, but just b/c we were friends in HS or grade school does not mean I want you in my business now. I have over 100 friends on FB and only interact with 20-25 at the very most. Some people I have approved, and they've never even said anything to me! Losers! They only want to be nosey. There just are not that many people I care about or mean enough to me to be involved in my life now. I'm past the "I'm everyone's friend" stage and have moved on to having my own "circle of trust". More than likely I will never see most of those people, so they are getting the boot! In case you are worried, don't be. If you read this blog your safe on FB!

Couch to 5k

I LOVE this program! I really like to run, but it's been years(a lot of years) since I have been able to do it with ease and distance. When I was trying to find something to get me back in the swing of things I found this program. It seemed almost to good to be true. Couch to 5k in 9 weeks?? Are they serious? Don't they know how out of shape I am?? I am now a believer. I ran 5 minutes straight tonight, and while I was ready to stop when my time was up, I'm sure I could have keep going if I had to. Actually I know I could have if I had to. Over on the right is a countdown to my first 5k. My friend Jen and I are doing it together and I'm stoked!! A 5k! That might as well be a million miles to me. It's going to take training and dedication but I know I can do it. I want this to be 'my thing'. I can't wait to say, "I'm a runner' or 'Ya, I like to run' or 'Oh, I can't, I'm doing a 5k this weekend'!! Hehehehe, good night all~!

If you don't have anything nice to blog about don't blog at all.

The Dark Ages

It's that time again. The time of year I hate. I really used to love Spring. Now I dread it. The months of February-April are my own personal Dark ages. Every year I say they won't be, but they are. I can't help it. I try to not to think about it. Yet years later,here I am thinking about it. Thinking about the days. Counting the days. I'm sick, like nauseous, when I think about making it through these months. This year is really dragging me down. I think it's because there is no sun. Grey everyday. It makes me so tired, I only want to sleep. I want the damn sun! I NEED the damn sun! What's in the forecast? More fucking snow! It's not helping my disposition at all. Jason is on me all the time about being 'to quite'. Can you imagine? Angel Hallock, to quite. The weird part is I'm not thinking about anything. I'm quite with no thoughts. Nothing running through my head except for, "When can I sleep next?" No deep thoughts, no planning for the future, or thoughts of the past. Nothing. Just sleep, I only want to sleep. I felt great for the few hours yesterday the sun was out. No sun today :O( C'mon May hurry up and get here!!
