Wow, sorry for being MIA. I haven't forgotten about you guys! I've been keeping up with reading all of my favorite blogs but I just haven't had the opportunity to contribute to my own!! Oy!
It feels like I've had so much going on but really I haven't. I'll give you a quick recap as I actually have things to get done at work so I can't stay long.
Work
I quit the part time job. It wasn't worth my time or energy, in fact, I was down right exhausted all the time. It was also the main reason I got out of the habit of blogging. I don't miss it quite as much as I thought I would, although I do miss the extra muh-lah. The poopy part was that we were just blowing all the extra money I was making and not putting it toward our budget like I had hoped.
Jason is still laid off. He's been out of work since the middle of February. It sucks but we're doing okay.
I still hate my job and have been keeping my eye open for other opportunities.
Budget
We had to knock about $1000 out of our spending/budget when Jason got laid off and we haven't been putting any money toward our debt snowball. I'm having a hard time with that because I wanted to at least have two of our debts paid off this year. Ugh annoyance.
We also ended up owing $600 to taxes. That sucked. 'Nuff said.
Body/Mind
I haven't run a single step since February when I started having problems with my knees and decided not to run the half-marathon. And honestly, I haven't missed it at all. Unfortunately though, I also hadn't workout out a single bit since that same time until last Monday.
Last Monday, Jason and I started the P90X workout program. If you're not familiar with it, you can check it out here. A handful of people I know have tried the workouts and they said that they noticed results within the first month. So, after a bunch of deliberation, we decided to buy it. We're also making the effort to follow their nutrition program as close as possible - Jason's even started doing some cooking! Amazing!!
I'm still surprised at how gung-ho Jason has been. If we have plans in the evening, he's up and at 'em at 5am so that we can get our workout in. Its quite nice actually. We still haven't taken our "before" pictures that we were supposed to take at the beginning. Hopefully we'll get those taken soon, seeing as how we're on our second week! haha
That really is just about all that's going on. We've been busy going to baseball games as my brother is graduating HS this year and its his last varsity baseball season.
Hopefully I'll be able to start blogging a little more regularly soon!! Well, I gotta jet! The boss just got back from lunch.
Until next time,
Lacey
