End of a Week... Beginning of a Weekend!

I did it! I finished one whole week of Insanity without complaining, moaning, and without taking any extra days off! I feel super accomplished! I found out my order got approved so hopefully my new Shakeology and TurboFire will be here next week! I am feeling good and when I stepped on the scale yesterday morning I was down 7 pounds since two weeks ago! I am not thinking that that is all actually weight loss and I don't care it is improvement and that is all I need... for the numbers to continue to go down and stay down... Between Turbofire and Insanity I think I can actually do it this time! At least until I end up pregnant somewhere down the line!

I spent yesterday afternoon doing a puzzle and watching Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman. I used to watch this show growing up and it was a weekly family event to sit down in front of the TV together and see what the newest episode brought! Shortly before Valentine's Day I looked it up online and was attempting to watch it on YouTube... The first episode was broken into 7 segments lol! Would have taken forever! Anyway the Hubby criticized it and told me he would not watch it because he didn't like it and it was a stupid old show he had no interest in! I have taken on a stubborn streak lately... I really don't know what it is but either way I was gonna sit in front of the computer no matter how long it took to load that episode and watch my TV show! The next day we went to sign up for Whale Watching and the Hubby gave me a good apology and told me that he had ordered me the Complete Boxed set of Dr Quinn since he was such a jerk about it and I was having such a hard time watching it online! The set finally came and I have been watching it non stop! It is such a good wholesome show and it wet on for such a long time! I remember having to watch the season finale of one of the seasons just to see what happened between Dr. Mike and Sully! I can't even lie I always had a crush on Sully when the show was on and a huge one even now  a little bitty one even now! (WHEW! Sully just showed up in a TUX!)  Not that I don't like a couple of the shows from now a days but they do not have very many good wholesome shows like this anymore! That teach values and right from wrong! Sure they mention drinking and sleeping around and things such as that but they express the dangers as well and definitely don't glorify the subjects! They glorify things that should be glorified like education and respect!

Sometimes I think I was born in the wrong time! Granted.. I would have been one stubborn outspoken wife back in those days! Probably would have had a bit of trouble but to live off the land and explore places unspoiled by human hands! Granted I love all the amenities we have these days... TV, Movies, and Video Games (The Internet of course) but my dream has always been to own a HUGE number of acres of land with a house right on the middle... Great view... no neighbors... Horses... Granted I also want to have a town not so far away to go get supplies and entertainment when needed... I am SUPER mixed up I know! I grew up on a mountain with an amazing view.. plenty of hiking and wildlife! Things you don't get to see in towns! My dad had a big barn he had built himself with a pond out back! When I was five we moved down the mountain into the Valley where I lived until I joined the military! I walked to and from school until high school when I got my car. I grew up in a small town without much crime or anything of that sort. Everyone knew everyone else but the big cities were only 15-30 minutes down the road! We didn't live in a housing development with cookie cutter houses... we had a back and a front yard and knew everyone in our neighborhood for a time (before lots of new people started moving in and all the kids grew up). It was a great childhood and a great way to grow up! I had a mix of the two childhoods but I would still like to live somewhere with lots of land and a semi-farm type lifestyle! With the way things have changed in the world I am almost scared to bring children up in it but I would like to do my best to bring them up in a well rounded lifestyle... to be very open minded and accepting and sheltered lol VERY VERY SHELTERED! JK.. for the most part! Whatever the case may be I have 17 years of being an Air Force Wife and travel before we will be able to settle down in one place for very long! For now its Okinawa... hard to believe in about 6 weeks i will be going home to Alabama for a little while then on to New Mexico for hopefully only two years! Then who knows! Maybe overseas... maybe stateside but hopefully to a base we will enjoy and get a lot out of! It is going to be hard to leave here after three years but I have to find the good in the next place I end up!
