145 days

145 days until my husband comes home and I can get my life back! I'm ready to get back to the way my life was before this deployment, but I know its going to be SO much better. I have so much to look forward to and I'm getting so impatient! On a good (great) note, I've lost 17 lbs on this new healthy outlook on life. I've gone down 3 pant sizes which is so beyond me, I've never had to diet before and never had an issue with my weight until I had kids...getting old stinks! I would love to have a completely new body by the time hubby comes home and having that goal is keeping me going. As much as I would love to get back down to the 120's like I was pre-Maya, I know that I need to focus on a more realistic goal, so I'm looking at the 140's because I know I can stay at that. I went shopping today and it was amazing to be able to shop at regular stores again, I got a couple of cute outfits and I look forward to MORE shopping in the near future ;)
It seems as is Spring has Sprung, or should I wait??? I'm loving the warm weather and I look forward to being able to take the girls outside daily to get some of that energy out! I see alot of zoo and park visits in the future with mylynda and the girls:)
I start school in May, I'm beyond nervous about it but I'm so excited to be doing something with my life! I'm still kind of sketchy on what I'm going to be studying but I hope that one day it will come to me. I'm happy that I'll be able to help support my family in the future, I just hope I'm able to balance my everyday mommy life with school...we shall see!
My stepdaughters and their mom are coming down to visit the end of this month, I'm beyond excited! I miss them and I know they all miss each other. I hate that we live so far apart and with my busy/crazy life I can't keep in touch like I want to but we always make up for it when all of them are together.
Maya will be 4 on sunday, 4!!! I feel like I just had her yesterday and she's already turning 4! I'm not ready for this at all, I feel like time is going by so slowly and then a birthday comes up and slaps me in the face! This year will be a new milestone for us, Pre-K...am i ready for this??? I see myself crying outside her door until school is let out, lol! I'm not used to being away from my babies. I know this willl be good for her and the interaction with other kids will help her in so many ways, but I'm selfish, I like to keep my girls to myself, lol!! Kidding!
I know this post was pretty random, but I'm a pretty random person anyway so its to be expected I guess:)
