What a day?!

We've been in Virginia a little over a year. We've enjoyed the weather but, it's already 90 degrees the first full week of April. What are we in for this summer??? And the A/C decided today would be a good day to stop working..lol
I am sticking to my image goal:) I worked out at the gym yesterday morning, and at home while Watching the Biggest Loser, that's fitting..lol I haven't had pop (that used to be all I'd drink) and I've had sooooo much water. Everytime I turn around I'm filling up my 20 oz bottle again. I worked out again this morning and have been cleaning and moving furniture all day. Another workout at home sounds like a great idea too:)
Cleaning... Not my favorite thing to do, but I love the feeling when I've been cleaning so hard I'm sweating, and I see what my house looks like. It's awesome:) I think Wayne will be very pleased when he gets home in the morning. It's nice too because I have nothing to get done for the day he's home so we can just be together.
My kids are loving this day too. Lexi's on spring break, I can't believe I have a kid who's old enough for that.. Wow.. So we've been doing fun things to stay busy while she's home. We have been to the beach a few times, played in the pool we got today, and they've gotten to play together. They really miss each other while Lexi's at school (I'm sure that will change).

Goals

I've been blogging on myspace, but thought it was time to try this. I love expressing myself in writing and this is alot easier than keeping a journal on paper. So...here goes!
I've been making a list of goals since this year started, not New Year's Resolutions, cause those don't work. I mean actual goals that I WILL accomplish:)
My first goal is to be the best mom that I can be. I have two beautiful daughters who I love with all my heart. They are the reason I am alive and look forward to getting out of bed each morning. Alexis is almost 5 yrs old and Kayla is almost 3 yrs old. I wouldn't be who I am without my kids.
My second goal is to be the best wife that I can be. I am a Navy wife. Any military wife will tell you that it's a hard job. I love it and am very proud of my sailor, but there's work that goes into that. Wayne is the love of my life. When we met, I wasn't sure what would come of it, neither of us were. He'd already joined the military and I accepted that. We were meant to be together. I love him more today than the day I married him almost 4 years ago!
Third, to be a great daughter of God.. I am a Christian and proud to say it:) I pray everyday, at least twice, I have great friends who have the same beliefs that I do, and I love God. There are things I can be doing to make myself a better Christian, and that's what this goal is for!
And the last... To love myself. I have always had a confidence problem. There were times when I've felt better than others, but even then I wanted to be better. I have been going to a gym, eating better, only drinking water now (anyone who knows me, knows I've always hated water and never drank it), watching everything I eat, and working out at home as well. Between the sun tanning me already and working out, I am beginning to feel better. I still have a little way to go before my goal look, but I am working at it.
I'll update my progress as it happens, as well as new blogs about anything that comes to mind:)

About Me

My photo
Like the title says, I am just me! I created this blog several years ago as a way to put my thoughts down on "paper". I have come back to it from time to time, but lately I find myself thinking about more and more things to write. If it inspires you...great, if not, that's ok too. I'm Just Being Me!!
