Goals (why not?) and random other blah blah blah

Hi there...

Long time no write.

I said I would blog more in the new year. Good start, eh?

So... Christmas was pretty good. I received some nice adult type presents. Not those kind of adult presents. More like filing cabinet, dishes for the kitchen, things of that nature. I'm actually excited about them. I have already used some of them as well. I got a pretty crystal tray with a dip bowl that I used for nachos one night we entertained!

It's now almost February and I have not really made any NYE resolutions...I did not really plan on doing that this year. However, I decided that it is sometimes nice to have things like that written down. So here goes...

*Be HEALTHY ie. work out, eat right, & all that buzziness.

*Do me things.

*Focus on the future.

*Further my education. (?)

*Be the wonderful loving person I am. :)

So, lately I have the need to try something new, just not sure what? I want something exciting. Oh life. Oh me. Oh my. Oh dear.

A credit card. Yes, that's right. I Tmo, a twenty-something woman, do NOT own a credit card. While browsing one of my fav online stores (that I have never bought from) I realized I could never own anything from said site with no gold. Hmmmmmmmmmmm. What to do?

My hubby leaves on Saturday for 2 weeks, so I'm looking forward to girly nights and some alone time.

If you want to hang with this chick calllll meeeee, f-book me, or twitter me. ;) So many ways.

I have to tell you! I have been making things!

Cherry pie, brownies, slow cooker chicken, & sheperds pie. Ok, so none of those things are very hard, but...they were for me, so give me a break.

I have been cleaning, sort of...

I'll keep working on it.

Love,

Tmo

Goodbye 2009, Hellooooo 2010!

It's so very odd to me that right now it's 2010. It always seemed like a far away dream, at the time Mr. M deployed, that January 2010 would even come. Yet, it's now 12:47 am, Saturday, January 2nd. Life never ceases to amaze me. I now have to get through January, February, March, April - then May 1st I'll be able to move into the cute little bungalow pmq dreamhouse. *sigh* He'll then be home sometime around the very middle of May! Four point five months more of this crazy waiting game I landed in until I get to cash in my prize of my hunny being home.

Awhile ago I wrote this list of things I wanted to accomplish while Mr. M was gone. I have, in 2 months, done all of that. So my current goal is to just keep doing what I've been doing, because it seems to be working well for me.

I WANT A HUG

I'm having a moment, sorry. It's harder this time around, him leaving again. He was home for his HLTA for 20 days after being gone for 2 months and letting him go again was just the worst feeling ever. He's already been gone a week...I need my routine back. There are also scary grinding noises that the truck has been making over the past two days. I'm taking it to get looked at tomorrow. Please let nothing else go wrong.

Also, 3 days ago, 4 canadian soldiers died. May they rest in peace.

Sorry for that - I'm done now.

THE END

In happy news I found a dress I had to strongly resisted the urge to get - Etsy is getting to me.

It's soooo loverly.

Loverly. Do you know what that wonderful word is from? I got it for Christmas to add to my collection! It's my new fav Audrey movie.

I need sleeeeeeep. I will write soon. I'm planning on doing a post like my dear friend Plaid Guru seen here. So watch for that!

Love to you all.

Lazy with Lists

I had a long day today. I feel worn out and tired. I love my job very much but it can be very stressful and long when you don't have a child that is willing to listen. Plus, I got called in 3 hours early.

I'm sitting here watching the Hills- which I love but have less love for now that Lauren is gone. I appreciate it for what it is now, though. Before I began typing I was eating a chocolate bar and reading  Woman's Health Magazine. I'm trying to replace Cosmo, It's very hard. Woman's Health is also very inspiring.

Time is very odd right now. I looked at a calendar and realized it has been a week since he left tomorrow. That went by so fast - yet it went by incrediby slow since I thought more time had went by. It feels like ages ago and yesterday all at the same time.

My list (written here) is not going very well. I knew I would need nothing time for awhile, just my way of coping. I think I have had enough now, I'm feeling lazy and dissapointed at my get up and go. I want to accomplish toning a little before he gets home. I find it hard to maintain a healthy diet because of my living situation. I'm living in a house that's filled with groceries that I am very welcome to eat, but they are all random and I have no idea what to make. Or if I should eat it because she might want it.

I feel pretty comfortable in this place, but it's not my place. I dream of being completely comfortable in a home that is mine and Mr. M's! *sigh*

Goodnight.

4 Days

So, I'm still in a somewhat of a denial towards the impending doom of deployment. I know it's coming, just not in the amount of days the title of this post indicates. I have so much to do before then. Sigh. Here is a list, just because I like lists:

-Pack

-Visit Family

-Time with him

I realize there are only three things, however, they are big important things. So there.

In regards to the impending doom - went out last night as a sendoff thing for the boys. Wasn't terrible actually, but that was mostly because I barely drank, while my significant other was somewhat of a lush and was tanked faster than you can say "pre-deployment anxiety". The toilet was indeed his friend by the end of the night, but no fights occurred - other than me getting slightly annoyed at the continuous drinking when I had asked him to slow it down, no harm done, though.

I HATE MRS. ANNOYED AT DEPLOYMENT

Sometimes, I wish as a girl, we didn't experience so many odd, ridiculous, unusable feelings. They are just there and they interrupt everyday life with no regard for manners. For instance - Girlfriend says: "Talk to me, babe." Boyfriend says: "What about?" Then the crazy feelings leaps out of nowhere and say: "I don't know, just anything, you always just want to talk about movies to download to watch while you are overseas, you don't even talk to me anymore. I just want to talk, you are leaving soon and we just never talk anymore." Then you have Mrs. Confusing Sentences, Mrs. Cranky and Mrs. Annoyed At Deployment just blatantly sitting on your lap on display for the whole world to see, including poor clueless boyfriend. So, then you have to take a minute to push Mrs. Confusing Sentences, Mrs. Cranky and Mrs. Annoyed At Deployment onto the floor and then apologize to poor clueless boyfriend. All the while trying to ignore Mrs. Annoyed At Mrs. Annoyed At Deployment who is trying to climb into your lap.

THE END.

So, I need to get back to trying to pack and getting ready to go to my friend Trin's birthday dinner at a local pub tonight. Should be fun! She is a very good friend of mine who is a military fiance. Her man is going over with mine, so we are going through this together - you can read her thoughts on life.army.love.

Anyway, back to my life in the real world.
