Seattle Here We Come!

I just finished packing and getting everything ready to go to Seattle. I think this is going to be a really good weekend for closure on the Navy part of our life! I'll post pictures when we get back!

This is a picture of the Kitty Hawk just after 9/11, Greg was stationed on it at the time of this picture!

Biggest Loser

So what does everyone think of the new season of Biggest Loser?

It's starting out very interesting! I love that they are really showing the medical aspect of weight loss even more this season and that losing just a small percentage of weight can significantly affect your overall health!

I must say I really am surprised the outcome of the elimination last week, I really expected the Silver team to be gone!

I wonder what is in store this week!

Happy Birthday to.......

ME!!!!

And My friend Jill, also happy belated birthday to my Niece Annabelle!

About Me

So Brandy tagged me in this 16 things chain on facebook and it really inspired me to write more, so here I go! A lot of things some people will be very surprised to learn!


#20. I can not wait to have a baby. There was a time (not long ago) that I was so far from this point in my life but now I know this is what I want! Even though I'm a bit scared to be responsible for another human being!
#19. I have so much more to learn in life and I'm ready and willing to learn (even through mistakes)!
#18. I believe the 2 greatest rock bands of all time are Bon Jovi and Aerosmith! I think the lyrics to their songs can change the way you see things! I love how true and real some Aerosmith songs are, if you take away some of weird lyrics they are very poignant!
#17. (This one's not a surprise) I love Jon Bon Jovi enough said!
#16. I love to spend time alone! I know it sounds bad but I like to be quite and think!
#15. I love my friends and family more then anything in the world.
#14. I do not open up to people well, I'm still shy and I don't like to let people in so sometimes I put up a front. I have a very hard time getting over being hurt when someone I love and have let in my life hurt me, hence not letting people in! In fact I truly think there are only a handful of people in this world who really know me and get me and I cherish them more then they know!
#13. I can not stand when someone acts like they are better then you! WE ARE ALL EQUAL!!! From a CEO to the people who clean the toilets in the end we are all judged the same way so get over yourself now!
#12. I am not stuck up, snobby or anything that even resembles those things. If you think I am it's just because you haven't taken the time to get to know me!
#11. I love Chocolate cake! If I could eat it everyday I would! If you want on my good side give me a chocolate cupcake with vanilla or buttercream frosting!
#10. I am not perfect and I will be the first person to tell you this! My house is never in picture perfect condition, I personally think people who have houses like that have way to much time and are over compulsive! I believe there are more important things in life!
#9. I love Audrey Hepburn, her movies, her philosophies on life her amazing giving heart. I believe the world is a better place because of her and everyone should see her movies and read about the amazing charitable work she's done!
#8. I am a girlie girl! I feel better about myself and life when I have a little make up and nail polish on!
#7. I hate mornings!! Always have Always will! I do not like to talk to people for at least 30-60 minutes of being awake!
#6. I love my dogs! They are my children until I am blessed with babies of my own!
#5. I miss my father every single day! Even after 22 years it doesn't get easier you just learn to live without the person you've lost!
#4. I have an obsessive need for approval from others! I know my option is the only one that should matter but I can't help it!
#3. I do love to shop! Not necessarily to buy things just to lose myself in looking at all the beautiful things! It relaxes me!
#2. If I could live any place in the world I would live in New York City, the city makes you feel so alive! But I would have to have the people closest to me there because I hate being away from them.
#1. I have one true hero in this world, that is my mom! I don't know how she ever gave me the amazing life that I've had all on her own but I thank god for her everyday!

Catch up!

Wow I've really been slacking off in the blog area!
Quick catch up.

Greg and I have been working what seems like non stop since the holidays. We are now working opposite shifts, I work 8am-4:30pm and he works 2pm - 10pm so we only see each other for a few minutes in the AM and PM. Luckily for at least the month of January we both have Fridays and Saturday's off which makes it slightly better!
We've also been busy planning and getting ready for our trip out west to Washington State at the end of the month. The ship Greg was stationed on in the Navy is being decommissioned out there on the 31st so we decided to go out there for it! I'm sure it will be cold and maybe rainy but it should will be nice and I've never been out west before so that will be fun. The ship is at the Naval Ship Yard in Puget Sound so we'll be right outside of Seattle, probably go into the city for a day while we're there!

Hmmm what else? Nothing really, my birthday is next week so that's exciting and we can't wait for next Tuesday to say GOOD RIDDANCE to George W.

Beyond that no other news.

Biggest Loser last week was interesting, what I saw of it. My DVR didn't record from 8:40-9:30 so I missed that but no biggie!
I do remember a few tidbits from the auditions though. We were told the season would be the largest and longest ever, there would be more trainers, and more twists. Also that you would come with a partner but you may not end up with that partner!
Can't wait to see what all that means!

Biggest Loser is back!!!

It's time for the next season, and the season I tried out for! I'm glad I'm not on this season and a little bummed at the same time!
In any case time to watch!!
