Sick!
I hate being sick!! I am stuffy and congested and blah…
I think I am maybe starting to get a bit better but it comes and goes so I have to wait and see. Either way I have to get back to work tomorrow and hopefully be better because I won’t really have a real day off again until the 11th, gotta love the military.
I used to think I would make the military a career, I wanted to be in at least 20 years. Once I got in I still thought that way, it was fun and structured and what I needed and wanted…at the time. I am started to branch out now and thinking maybe I don’t want to do the full 20, maybe now I am capable of being on my own without the tons of structure. I am starting to think of being a teacher again. I had thought of it before and liked the idea but was never really sure but left the idea alone, now I am thinking it might be fun. I have another four years to go on my enlistment which is fine, it’s a lot of time to think but now I am more open to branching out. There are a lot of things to think about like job stability, insurance, where to live and all of the questions that are easily settled by just being in the military, maybe it is all stuff I just decided to avoid by joining the military, it was an easy answer when I couldn’t make any other decisions. We will see how it goes but at least I am finally thinking about other things and I think I am going to start going to school again, not a lot all at once but start on it.
Funny how a couple days of being sick leads to some life decisions, this is what happens with so much time to think. I am also leaning towards waiting on kids. I *really* want them and my family and friends are pushing but I have only just recently hit actual happiness with my husband without all of the crazy stress and issues. We still have stuff to work through but we have finally grown up and are just getting our money together and I want to enjoy it. I will still give him the looks when we pass kids and poke and pester him but honestly, I think just not right now. That also rolls into the potential teaching idea, I want to concentrate on school and setting up my life and though I may not be done with school by the time we have kids I want to at least get everything rolling first, get all of the bills paid off that we can and enjoy some time with just me and the hubby for a bit. I can finally have the honeymoon period I never got, why should I try to cut it short?
Halloween!!
Halloween, yay! It’s over now obviously and I think this year was a bit disappointing for me. Friday was supposed to be a maze day, there was a big corn maze that we were supposed to go to but we ended up not. It was originally planned as a group outing with one of my friends but she ended up opting out which kind of killed it. Saturday was spent as a night working at our squadron’s haunted forest which was ok but I am not the kind of person who is good at scaring random people so I just kind of wandered. Yesterday we went to a “party” it was more of just a hang out. I only ended up out for about a half an hour before going home, the group wasn’t too bad, kind of interesting but not really my crowd. We ended up not carving pumpkins this year which I was actually really bummed about but there is nothing I can really do about it.
I came home, passed out and woke up sick…I had a bit of a sore throat when I went to bed but I woke up pretty crappy feeling so I went to sick call. Lucky me, doctor put me on quarters for 2 days. This could be a good thing except we have an exercise coming up but I really hope I don’t mess anything up by being unable to go to work. I wanted to get this sick feeling gone before the exercise which is why I didn’t even mess with it and just went to the doc but hopefully it doesn’t come around that it would have been a better option to just suck it up.
Other than that life is pretty good, money is (for now at least) doing better. I ended the last month with a little extra and not having to balance money around, it was a very strange feeling. I thought I had missed paying a bill or something and kept checking over and over but it was all paid and good. It was surprising but worked out for the better because now I need a new power cord for my computer and I can actually afford to buy it! Next I maybe will save enough to buy the external hard drive I want and save all my music and stuff to that. It is nice to not have to freak about money so hopefully hubby’s work doesn’t mess with him anymore and we can finally get comfy and stable and out of debt. I can’t wait to get the freaking car payments done.
I think for now that is it, my mind is just too jumbled to make sense of much right now so I am rambling…I think it is time for a nap…
Darn Market Rent
I am sick…I have been sick for like three days. I thought I just ate something that messed with my stomach but I think I am actually fully decently sick. It is starting to go away but I am still a bit messed up, hubby and I were talking about taking me to the hospital today because it just was not improving but I think it broke and is getting better. I am hoping to be fully recovered by tomorrow and if I get back to where I was I probably will end up going to the hospital to see whats up.
So my apartment is raising my rent, they gave me a whole talk about how I wasn’t paying market rates before and had gotten special move in deals (including a move in special given to me when I renewed my lease apparently?) and now they are raising me to the normal rate. We are now trying to find a new place because honestly this place is just not worth what they want us to pay. Unfortunately we haven’t exactly been saving for a move so I have no idea if we will even be able to do this and scrounge together the money but I really hope we can. I have wanted to move for a while and this just gives motivation. Sadly I don’t really know how to search for an apartment, we tried today and failed, we may have found a pretty place but not really a cheap one. Oh well, I am trying to find things online but I prefer actually being out seeing things, sadly it seems when you go out driving to look all apartment buildings disappear, we had no real idea where to go and really got nowhere but back home. The whole me being sick thing really didn’t help much either. Hopefully tomorrow will be better both health wise and with the apartment hunting.
Stupid colds…
Ah, the weekend, finally. This week has been pretty blah. I haven’t been on the internet for the last couple of days, I decided instead to sit with hubby and watch movies and leave out the computers. He is still really sick which means the apartment is a total mess. Apparently he cannot put dishes away or throw away trash when he is sick *shrugs* whatever, I am not going to rag on him too much, he says he will fix that when he gets better so if he doesn’t then that is when I will start getting really irritated. Supposedly he intends to clean up some today and get through a lot of boxes to unpack today.
Work is work, it is blah. Hopefully some things have been settled and we finally got some answers we were waiting on and for now they seem to be in our favor. Other than that, nothing to new there.
We got cable. Woot for that except I was channel surfing today and a lot of the channels I want and like are not in the basic package which I find very annoying. They are one package up which is about $15 extra a month. I think I will wait for this month to pass and get the first bill with all of the installation fees and then go add the other set of channels. It is going to be interesting working this new bill into the budget but it is totally do able, especially when hubby gets a job. Supposedly he is calling up the district manager to see if he can get that job they basically told him he had. Not a straight transfer, he has to interview but supposedly it is just a basic interview then they can put him into a position. We will see how that works, then we have to figure out the car issue, having one car is gonna suck. Whatever.
Sick…
Ugh…hubby is sick. Not flu type sick just really bad cold. He is coughing a ridiculous amount which makes it so he can’t fall asleep until about 4 in the morning. So much for trying to get our sleep schedules to sync up. For the past couple of nights he has also been sleeping on the couch so he doesn’t wake me up, it is understandable, I am a really light sleeper and I need the sleep, it just sucks. Whatever, not like he was going to sleep with me anyway so I didn’t get to cuddle or anything, he just randomly shows up in the middle of the night, wakes me up while he gets in to bed and tries to talk to me then falls asleep.
I am frustrated. I am ridiculously broke right now, like literally I have budgeted down to my last dollar and though technically I have money in my account it is already spoken for. I write out a check every month to the same guy and it takes him forever to cash it but I am not going to spend the money hoping he won’t, therefor, I am broke. This also means I am stuck at home which could be nice except my apartment is jam packed with stuff and hubby and I aren’t doing anything, no connection no fun. He picks up his computer and is lost. As soon as he grabs his I grab mine and that is how the night progresses until I go to sleep. I was irritated last night and told him about it and here I sit tonight in the same situation. He got a message from someone he hasn’t talked to in years so that is why he said he has been on so long, fine, whatever.
Kudos to him for starting to wash the blankets and sheets (he needed to so he could get the cat hair off of them and hopefully sleep in the room tonight) but seriously if you are going to do that just freaking do it. Don’t let the crap sit in the washer and dryer while you are playing online with whomever especially when I specifically said before I was even close to coming home that I would be taking over the washer and dryer when I got home. GRR! I hate this, one thing gets me frustrated then it all builds up and now I am just in a horrible mood and I can’t even cuddle up in bed and go to sleep because dear hubby couldn’t finish the stupid blankets. URG! I need a vacation…
Sick Saturday
I’m sick, it didn’t go away. I am stuffy and have a sore throat and bleh, can’t wait to teach tomorrow, woo hoo.
Facebook Niftyness!
Ha, I have just recently discovered that my flight from basic has a group on facebook, kind of nifty I must say. It is nice to talk to them all again and reconnect, basic was a tough time but it was a good time for me and I miss a lot of the people. Good times, good memories and good people though I am glad I am not there anymore.
I think I am getting sick or something. I woke up with a nasty kink in my neck…or something is pinched, I’m not really sure of anything except it hurts. Then through out the day I have just gotten worse, I feel a bit clouded in general and a little snuffly and stuffy with a sore throat and a headache. I really hope it doesn’t get any worse, I really really hope it just goes away by tomorrow.
I have tomorrow off, yay Saturday, but I am teaching on Sunday again. Not too bad because I get an extra day of but I have discovered my supervisor would have given me the day of anyway so that I could unpack the uhaul and get fully moved. Oh well, hopefully it will be a while before I end up doing this again and it looks good that I volunteer for the extra stuff, right? Meh, Make it through the four hours of class and then I get a day off. This week will hopefully pass quickly. Monday is PT so it’s short, Tuesday will probably just be boring, and Wednesday hubby picks up the Uhaul and packs up! Then Thursday he is driving and I have Friday off and he will hopefully be here Friday so yay! He is thinking he will be able to make the drive in one day. Supposedly it is like a 17 hour drive straight up and that’s if nothing is closed off for weather and without bad traffic. His plan is to leave super freaking early in the morning and just keep driving until he gets here. I figure if he can make it that way he would get in at maybe 11ish at night? If he can’t it will still hopefully have him coming in Friday afternoon so we can get some stuff unloaded then spend a nice weekend hopefully relaxing. I think we will have to get a storage unit, at least for a bit until he can get his work thing straightened out and get his tool box taken there. That tool box is a pain that will follow us forever, too bad it is so necessary and too bad I am in a third floor apartment. I should have tried to get a first floor but I just didn’t want to move all of my stuff again. Hopefully after six months we will move or something but I doubt it. By that time we should have extra money floating around but we probably won’t have had the chance to save much. Probably be here for a year-ish unless the military moves me, bleh. Oh well, worries for a later time.
bleh…blarg…just a little off
Blah! I am tired…oversleeping maybe? I don’t know but I like sleeping so I am going to keep aiming for a wake up time of noon ish.
I weighed myself on the wii fit this morning and I am excited, I am down to 142.9…I don’t even know when I last weighed that. My goal is to break out of the 140′s entirely sometime hopefully soon-ish. Obviously I have more specific goals that are more oriented toward toning and what I can actually do like how many push ups and stuff, but it would just be cool to see something other than 140. I think in general weight goals though are good guidance aren’t as good as some other ones. I guess it also all depends on what you are going for but a lot of people want that all over toned look and seem to think that will be achieved simply by reaching this magic weight and though some people are that lucky most of the time it takes things other than simple weight loss. Not to mention if you are toning than a specific weight could be an issue because adding muscle causes you to weigh more but still look better and be healthier.
I wish people would be more on the ball. I mailed out a check forever ago and the guy still hasn’t cashed it and it is really bugging me. I like having money in my account that I can actually use rather than constantly having to recalculate and account for this large chunk that is technically spoken for. And I don’t like the idea that if I slightly overspend my check will bounce and that person can’t get their money. It is just extra annoyance and I am about to send him another check and deal with it all over again. Can’t wait until this stupid thing is freaking paid off. I am also trying to account for money properly because we have to get the uhaul and any money that doesn’t go to that I want to try to put toward that car so I need to know what is actually free in my account. Unfortunately I also need a good idea how much gas will cost and I have no idea whatsoever…stupid variables. Whatever the case the uhaul will get here and with it so shall my husband. I am super excited, if it works out right two weeks after however many months of waiting…a year if you want to count since I went to basic…crazy.
I still don’t feel well…I don’t think it has anything to do with alcohol, that time has passed, I just feel weird. Still super lazy but that isn’t totally new, it is cold outside and it just doesn’t seem worth the effort to put on however many layers for dryer sheets. I will just wait until I go to work and just do it all together. But I feel generally odd, like I cant get a comfy temperature at all…one second I am burning hot then I am freezing cold and I am a bit dizzy here and there, nothing big just slightly weird. Meh, I think my body can’t decide if it is over the cold or not…
