Curves

I asked for, and received a membership to "Curves" for Christmas. However, time got away from me and I only recently got my butt into the gym to actually sign up...

I had gone to a gym a few years ago when my mini-me was much younger and his dad & I were still together. It was convenient to leave him with his dad while I'd go for my workouts but when we split, dragging a toddler to a gym & paying sky-high rates for childcare made it impossible to continue, so I had to give it up.

The club I'm going to is on my way to work and the sitter doesn't mind nor charge me any more for dropping him off earlier than I would any other morning before I head to work.

It just means I have to get up an hour earlier...*groans*

This is gonna be a good thing...really! :)

I liked this look...


I think my mother would have a coronary though if I'd kept it.

Bills

There's one I hope I'm never rid of, but most bills I'd gladly ditch.

However, since putting the new windows in, I have realized a significant savings on heating costs. December's gas bill was $237 whereas January's was $185. That's $52 difference and the weather for both months was comparable.

My next big change will be the heating & a/c, that's going in on Wednesday. The ancient tempermental behemoth will be beheaded & gutted and a sleek new hepa filtered heating & cooling unit with Star Trek-esque gadgets will be put in its place.

With the rising costs of fuel & energy it just doesn't make sense to be putting so much to waste. I hope to save another $40-$60/month by replacing the furnace & a/c.

up & down

The variable weather has been wreaking havoc on my migraine management. I did attempt to go to work today but left an hour and a half into my shift feeling nauseus and wearing shades with the lights out on my side of the office.

I still feel "bleh"...I think I'll go to bed.

Waxing & whining

It hurts...lol

But i prefer waxing over shaving ANY day...less maintenance despite the pain and once you start, it's addicting (ok, so i LIKE pain)

Peace reigns at home...the boarder from hell is gone and i actually filed a complaint with the city police community liaison regarding the grossly misinformed officer who thought it was appropriate to yell at me when he was totally in the wrong and not allow me to speak and make my point. Had the arrogant bastard done so, he would have quickly understood he was mistaken and quite likely saved me a shitload of grief.

HA! That's all the whining i have in me for today...lol

Have a fantabulous weekend folks :)
