The new Normal

I haven't writen one of these in a while.  I figured it was about time.  Tonight I am alone because Ryan has watch....weird being alone but hey it's better then him being deployed... So I will not complain about one night. I thought I'd  talk about what we have been up to and since New Years is in the near future what my goals are going to be.

Nothing too exciting is going on in life.  Just teaching and enjoying being back in a classroom.. It ends in feb so I'm sure I'm going to be really sad to have to say goodbye to some of these kids... Ryan and I did our first volunteering event!  We helped at the Pensacola Christmas Parade....It was actually a lot of fun!  The parade was beauitful and it was awesome just doing something for the community as a couple.  We also put up our first Christmas tree as husband and wife!  haha I call it our Grown Up Tree because we actually have a full size tree...In the past we have just used those little tiny trees lol Which would end up falling over it because Elie our cat would climb it.  That's whats been going on.... with us

I recently did a photoshoot with a photographer.... as you have seen the pictures....She was an amazing photographer but I still need to loosen up and just love myself more.. I look at the pictures and still see fat and need to tone!  The shocking thing is I don't see huge anymore... I actually shocked now that I use to be that!  I've maintain my weight for pretty much six months... I would love to drop five to ten pounds but I will def embrace where I am and not stress about it.  I actually am very use to the way I eat..small portions its now my new normal!  On the side note I love that show!  Speaking of shows...  The new girl show really freaks me out every week.... She reminds me soo much of myself... The way she dresses and the nerd she is.... but mostly how she deals with things and the things she goes through...Kind of scary sometimes how close it is to my life.



Soooo I'm going to be turning 28 on Jan 10.... oh goodness... I'm getting to thirty... I have no regrets though..... New Years is coming... and I know many people laugh about resolutions... I think mine isn't a resolution I think its just some goals I want to obtain by the end of the year.  I think I'll stick to seven of them... and hope to atleast do 5 of them.. I think I can forgive myself if I don't reach two lol hahah see already making excuses. bad Lisa!


Goals.

1. Gain a close girlfriend.  I know it sounds sooo silly.... I have never had a close girlfriend basically my whole life it may be the fact that I grew up around boys.  But I would like to gain a close girl friend.  Doesn't have to be Penscola either.... (Reconnected with someone from High school we weren't close friends in high school.... neither no why... But I see it happening)

2.Sundays, I will turn off my phone and turn off the computer!  My husband doesn't think its possible!  I think we are on the phone and computer too much!  I'm the worst... So on Sundays I'm going to be a free from phone and free from computer lady!

3. DO A 5K! Goal is April and my husband will stand at the end and I will do a victory dance! To prove to him that I can do it! He believes I can do it! But doesn't think I will!

4. Take a cooking or painting class!

5. Audtion for a play!  ( I miss it and I need to do some of it!)

6.  Parasail!  I want to do it!! I hope I don't die!!!

7.  I want to volunteer atleast five times this new year!


So lets see how I do.... If I don't do them I'm going to have to buy a drink for everyone that I didn't do for my husband!!!

Sorry if this blog was boring..... hope not too boring!

Oh and I'm really excited because my best friend is coming to visit Pensacola in Jan!! Also I'm going to Texas to vist in March....

Ryan and I are doing wonderful... I'm a very very lucky girl....

Oh you are probably wondering why call this the new normal... because my life is starting to finally feel normal.....
