My favorite quote of all time

"My unicorn isn't a unicorn. It's just a donkey with a plunger stuck to it's face." House

I just thought I'd share this. I am sitting here alone watching House and then he said this and I literally burst out laughing. You might need to have been watching it to get it but still, it's super funny.

DONE!!

I finished all of my homework at literally the last minute last night. haha. I am staying on top of all of my work though and can say with a huge smile on my face that I will be DONE with these classes Friday!! I cannot wait!!

I have my UNCW orientation May 11 and I will be making my schedule then I believe. I am nervous. I want to keep working so we have that extra money but I really want to finish my degree. I am going to try and shoot for Tuesdays and Thursdays for classes so I can work at least 3 days a week. Hopefully it will work out that way for me. We'll see.

I hate myself right now.

Have you ever just had one of those days where you literally did not want to do anything but curl up in your bed an fall asleep for, oh lets say somewhere around, ever. I have a paper to write and a power point to create before midnight tonight. I haven't started either of them and I am not sure I plan on it. I hate that I am procrastinating and honestly considering just not doing the last bit of work in my last week of class but seriously, it sucks.

Ugh. I need my husband. I still wouldn't do it if he was here but at least I could cuddle.

Woo Hoo!!

In 6 months I have lost 22 lbs!! I think this is a super accomplishment since I haven't actually done any working out. Just eating a hell of a lot better. I went from 150 to 128 lbs! My goal weight is 120 so I am almost there! I think I might start doing some running and a little tone work too since I now feel awesome about myself.

I have never lost this much weight before. I have only gained since high school so this is awesome! I am so excited and happy.

My shopping list.

Things I need...
-Strength
-Patience
-Understanding
-Courage

Things I can't just pick up on isle 3...
-All of the above.

So it't probably not a huge surprise that my husband and I are pretty awful with the whole distance ordeal. We argue quite a bit over lots of different things. It's super stressful. We always make up and at least attempt to find a solution to everything but it is still just stressful and hurts.

I know that he feels like I am always blaming him and sometimes I guess I am. If there is one thing I have learned over time it's that boys and girls do NOT think anywhere near anything that could be called similar. We have different thought processes and ideas of how or why we do things. This makes it especially difficult with distance in the mix because it's so hard for me to understand why he says or does things. I try and I guess in the end that is all I can do but it's hard knowing the Marine Corps has so much to do with this. I just wish I could understand.

I know I am a strong woman. I have made it through boot camp with my husband and moved 12 hours away from my family and hometown to start my life with my amazing husband. I look toward our future and know that we're going to face deployments. Not just deployments but these little separations as well. I thought I was strong but I feel like I need a boost of whatever they give our marines during boot.

This is the other problem with distance. I am left to myself to think constantly. Someone come over and pinch me or something.

Just throwing this out there....

I need a girls night! *Cough Cough (KATIE & NICOLE) Wink WInk* Katie from Diary of a Disgruntled Marine Girlfriend and Nicole from Flip Flops and Combat Boots are my blog loves. We know each other outside of bloggy land and actually all live within 15 minutes-ish from one another. SO LADIES, let's have a girls night k? haha.

And...if any girls reading this live in the Camp Lejeune area and want to join a girls night then let me know and we will have a get together! I have had super awesome luck with blog girls turned true girls so I am always down for meeting new girls :-) Plus since my hubbers is away my girls are all I have to keep me sane!


Ok. It's about that time. Time to catch up on lost sleep haha.
