A little of this and that

So a lot has happened since I last blogged. My hubby has been away training for 9 days now. WOW I cant believe how well I am handling things. I miss him a lot but since we have been together we did everything as a couple. So it has been good for me to have to do thing on my own again. I love having him around and us doing everything together but it is also nice to know that I can do it on my own.

The other day I was out shoveling snow and I turned around and there was the neighbor standing waiting for me to finish. I didn't hear him walk up or anything. He totally scared the crap out of me and I almost hit him in the head with the shovel. He was laughing so hard and I was as well after the shock of seeing someone behind me.

I have been working out on my treadmill everyday since my hubby has been gone. I have already lost 6 pounds!!! I started off with 20 minutes for 1 week and now I pushed it up another 10 minutes so now I am up to 30 minutes a day. Every week I will increase my time by 10 minutes until I reach 60 minutes a day. I have found the most amazing recipe for fruit smoothies and I am so addicted. Instead of craving chocolate I am craving smoothies. They are sooooooooooooooo yummy!!!! After I get up to 60 minutes of treadmill I am hoping to get into a spin class or step classes.

I have also started volunteering at the PMFRC and it is awesome. I am doing Admin work for the lady who runs the volunteer part of the program. I even remembered how to write a simple formula for Excel. It is so nice to get out of the house to help out with such an amazing program. I am also learning about all the PMFRC has to offer.

So yes I am counting down the days until my hubby is home. Here is what goes through my head:

6 more Grey's and PP and he will be home
3 more garbage days
Shortly after 2 more military pays he will be home
One more that time of the month and after that he will be home

I know there are more that I have thought of but my brain doesn't want to work right now :)

Happy Saturday everyone!!!!

  1. Where is your hubby training now? Mine just left on Thursday for Gagetown - le sigh - but I feel the same way. I miss him like bananas, but it nice to be independent as well :)

  2. He is in California right now doing work up training to go to the sand box in a few months. I find the blogging really helps me get thought out of my head :)
