• submit FAFSA application DONE!
• submit college application
• get shot records signed off for application
• get high school transcripts

I am determined to start my college education come Fall ‘09. While I’m pushing for online only classes, I’m also throwing around the idea of some campus classes. As a way to get away and get the “real” college experience. Then I think about working 40 hours a week, taking care of Skyler and still trying to get some time to myself and I wonder if I can handle all of this. Fuck. I guess I just have to do this and deal with it.

I’m also pushing myself on really losing weight and getting in shape. I’m taking the afternoons while Skyler plays outside to swim. And swim laps, not just lounging. I bought a jump rope to get in some aerobics and I keep telling myself that the weekend mornings are going to be spent taking an early morning walk. When it’s nice and brisk outside and hell, Skyler wakes up at 6am anyways, and do I really want to spend the morning with both of us laying on the couch watching morning cartoons?

I am trying to eat healthier too. Portion control, cut out the junkie snacks, drink water not soda, eat more fruit and veggies, blah blah blah blah…. Sometimes I think that I’m pushing myself and overwhelming myself, but that’s how I have to do it. If I don’t start the portion control now but I start eating healthy and cutting out the junk, I’ll never do the portion control. If I start portion control but don’t eat healthy, I’ll never control the cravings for junk.

I guess that’s all the updates. I am off to bed to do some knitting, because honestly, who needs sleep when there is knitting to be done.
