Enter a world of change named Wallee...

This would be the new addition to my life. He is absolutely adorable....and also a royal pain in the ass. He is the reason I'm happy...and also why I can't seem to get well or get things done or get any sleep. He is worth it. Today, Sara, Wallee, and I went to the park. We ran and jumped and played like crazy. I would stop and yell to them both to COME....not only did they respond, but they sat side by side in front of me. How awesome is that?
Though, it is a bit of a transition period. Jon's stressed causing him to be a little hard on me at times. I'm stressed causing me to be ultra sensitive. But I think we are adjusting remarkably well. Things that are worth it take effort. No doubt about that.

Sometimes I really really really hate this blog. Sometimes I spend an hour (like this morning) trying to write about my day, my life, my thoughts and it comes out CRAP. Nothing interesting to say. Who the fuck wants to know that I was almost late to school today because of rain and IH35? Or that my hair is frizzy? Seriously people. BORING. Snooze. Snore. Yawn.
I'm in love with San Francisco. It's a similar feeling of the love I have for New Orleans. San Fran I would definitely live in. It has the feeling of cleanliness, of health, of nature, and of a rare and wild beauty. New Orleans is haunted and full of a mysterious energy. It's beautiful like a forest in a Grimms fairytale. New Orleans is a struggling old soul. I would never live there. 
I'm in the mood today to compile lists instead of try and form sentences. Perhaps it's because I got up too early and my brain does not want to make a lot of sense. It's in absorbtion mode. I'll try this. Maybe it'll be somewhat interesting.
I start with my standard
To do this week:

• Pay bills (credit cards first)
• give Jon $70 I owe him
• clean room, put away laundry
• grocery store
• raid Abby and Beth's closet for warm clothes.
• Get decorations for Mindy's shower
• take belly pics of Mindy
• start Jon's present

Things I'd like to add to my daily life:

• more time spent with Sara and more exercise for her. Get back to training her. Polish her training.
  

• No carbs for dinner. This would help in my continued efforts to tone up. Although I did check my inches and found that though I haven't lost any weight, I've trimmed 2 inches off my waist, hips, and theighs. Jon kept saying I seemed thinner and I guess I am. Last time I recorded my inches was in August.
• BTW-I do that via SparkPeople which is an online calorie counter/nutrition/exercise guide. It's free.
  
• Meditation-I want to keep in touch with my spirit. I find a distinct anxiety about meditation lately. I'm busy so I'm always thinking about what else I should be doing. Maybe I'll go back to Wed class.
• Salsa dance lessons with Jon
• save money. Pinch pennies.
  
• daily exercise. Maybe incorporate tennis into it? Weather is about to get really nice.
  

Alright, that's about all I have the stomach for right now. Peace.
