child at heart

So I was just kidding about the last post, it is not time for me to talk about that to my 6 readers and then the whole WWW just yet. On that same note though I do have a counseling session set up for the 10th of Feb. and that is reallllllllllly (get the point?) exciting for me.

It was pointed out to me at lunch the other day that this blog is supa serious all the time, and that not me – so lets change that shall we?

Hmm. I lost 5 pounds in the month of January. How you may be asking? Well I’m glad you asked, let me tell you! I have been working out 6 days a week and resting on Sundays. I try to do something different every day. I may do an elyptical at the gym for 45 minutes and then some ab work, or I may do the stable bike for about an hour and then some ab work. Lately however, when I could not make it to the gym I was still working out by doing DVD’s at the house. And this is more fun to me than going to the gym each day. Here are a few of my favorites:

ok so those are the main 3 I have been working with although I did get a new Tae Bo one last week that I am dying to try out! It is Billy Blanks favorite moves. I popped it in for about 5 minutes the other day – HOLY MESS, it WILL be the death of me!  :)  But I am ok with that if it means I am getting healthier.

So on to my confession, I have been sucked into a guilty obsession. I started this series on Monday night and I am already on book #3…. well actually as soon as I finish this post and go home I will be. It’s totally addicting. As if you needed me to tell you what it is, here you go: 

It is super strange for me to be so caught up in this series but it’s like crack! I cannot break away. I mean I love me a good book, don’t get me wrong but I do not think I have ever been so caught up in a fiction series before (other than RED, BLACK, and WHITE by Ted Dekker – Found at your local LifeWay Christian Bookstore)…. but I do like it. I am not to the point of checking out the movie just yet though. Maybe after it comes out I will NetFlix it. Sounds like a plan to me.

Jacky and I are in the process of planning our skydiving adventure this summer. Yes you hear me right. I want to jump out of a plane and tell others about it. True Bella style right? I mean, I have to do it because its on my life list and I want to do it with Jacky since we are so close in age and have soooo much fun together but her and her hubs are going to want kids within this year so now is my only chance!!

I also started piano lessons this week.  :) AH-MAZE-ING. Its also on my life list, but its been a supa serious desire for me to learn for years. I just finnally decided this year I would stop being so lazy and actually start pursuing that dream and I am totally excited about it already.

Man I didn’t realize how many things I was already planning to do this year from my life list. I am not complaining. Other things that are pending is possibly getting another tattoo (probably going down my ribs that says: “I am yours. Save me.” Re: Luther film and the struggles he faced in his christian walk. He used this line countless times as he cried out to God for comfort, and I have started using it when I am so far down. It works when it comes from the depths of my heart I have noticed.), Joey and I kinda want to go on a road trip but who knows where, when etc. I’m praying about mission opportunities and maybe one will open in another place on my life list.

I also want to make straight A’s this semester so we will see how that goes.  [yes I know reading twilight is NOT helping me reach that goal] And I don’t think Buster (my 12 year old beagle with a goiter [spelling?!] on his neck) will make it through this year, and I am looking at getting a Blood Hound puppy as like Buster 2.0, is that a little morbid? That I am talking about another dog “replacing” him? I think that is it but the year is young and who knows what the Lord is going to open the doors for.

Let’s see what else there is.

Oh yeah, this guy I like (Corey) and I will be going to Joey’s girlfriends [Ashton] birthday party tomorrow night. Which reminds me, I need to finish getting the material for the finish touches on my costume. By the way did I mention it is a costume party [super hero/villan themed] and we will be going as Quail Man and Silver Skeeter. Yes, between your laughter, you did hear me right. Pics fo sure early next week. I’m as excited about the costume as I am about who I am going with.  :)

MOJO – you can stop checking the blog so often now that there is something new to read on it.  :]
