Damn, I just had this big long blog and lost it by accidentally bumping a button. Let me try this again...
I'm really working on making this a good day today. I woke up to a couple emails that were positive. The main one being that, as long as I can take the pictures with more/natural light and as an ISO400, I've been accepted! YAY! One step closer to getting the stuff I need done.
I have asked both the other adults in the household how they feel about trailers (aka mobile homes), and they're both ok with them. The reason this comes up is that I don't think we're going to be eligible for the one house I REALLY want. I'm still waiting to get information about it, but I think it's only going to be available to people that already live and work there. However, I've found some mobile homes in our price range. That could be kind of cool. Anything to be able to have our own place and get south... Plus, the one's I'm looking at are in residential areas, not in mobile home parks.
So, lets see, I need another $30 for the bills this month, plus $300-600 to pay off my debt, and $150 for next month's bills for a total of $480-780. So far I have a possible $200 through ISM. My mom told me that my dad (well, step dad) wanted to pay some of my bill stuff for me... I would never ask him to pay it all off, but maybe one; that might be another $300, (up to $500). So, if I can make at least $280 this month, and everything else comes through... I would hit my January goal (for money)!
I've also been cutting back on sugar. I've been having some, but I've started trying to drink sugar-free drink mix (like Chrystal Light). It's not as much as I'd like to be doing towards the goal, but it's a start. I barely smoke anymore, I've cut out most caffeine, and now a lot of sugar. Now, if I can just get more comfortable getting off my ass and working out as well as working... I'll be really on the right road. I also need to start working on mood and anger management. But I'm started in the right direction.
So, my loves... I'm starting to move in the right direction. And so far everyone seems to be on board for the move to the Keys. I'm still tickled about that, but I'm not holding my breath still. However when I bring it up (which I do too much), every ones eyes light up and and the "if we do" conversation starts!
Here's to hoping things keep moving along!

I haven't gotten my excercise together yet either. Slow and steady!
