Things on the GO!!!

Well, I have more things on the go. I have planned a mountain trip with my little girl!! Yay, Radium, here we come!  Just 21 weeks away. On that not, I have 21 weeks to get my tummy down some. would be nice to, for once, not be so self aware while getting my bathing suit on! So, it is on, weight loss here I come! If you think about it, 2 pounds a week is healthy loss. So, if I aim for 40, it could definatly be a possibility! I am truly shooting for 20 pounds. That would mean that I could check off all the weight goals for the bucket list. 40 would be a greater number. It would mean that I would be the lightest that I can ever remember. Thik it has been stated before, but the lowest I remember is 167. 40 pounds would put me at 166!!!  Wow, the idea of being light is astounding!

I have also started a saving account. I have put $600 into an account and am going to add at least $200 per month from now on! If all works right I could have $2000 by end of August. That should be enough to start a place of our own. It is official that WE WILL be moved out on our own by end of year! Would like to make it an August move, but September or October move would be ok too. Would like to stay out here for the summer, so that we can be part of all the wonderful things of out here. The garden, a big yard, a park just a bikeride away and the weekend camping trips!  I will start looking at finding a different job come the summer and work from there.

I am also looking for someone to let me practise driving with their car. Mom leary of me driving in winter. My dear Lea thinks it would be good to practise now, and I agree with her!  I have the gumption to practise now and I fear if I wait til spring that I will lose interest in it!

My little girl is doing great in her new bed. I was starting to wonder about it when there was3 nights where she awoke in the middle of the night and did not want to return to sleep. Oddly enough, after the 3 days she has slept through the night. Well, last night she awoke, but it was because she had fallen onto the floor! he he he. If she wouldn't have fallen, I bet she would not have woken up! 

Think that is all for now!

  2. Good job with the savings account! I'm doing something similar with a term deposit. I'll describe it to you when we ever meet up (you need to get your Partyite SOME time, right?) It's my sure fire slow track to financial independence. And the way I have it timed will make Yule/Christmas happy times again. Anyway, I am very proud of everything you have accomplished. Now that you are on a roll, how is the quitting smoking going? <3
