nice weekend ....goofed off at Hueston Woods with my camera - Red Tailed Hawk ....East Fork Four Mile Creek ....adult and youngster Eagles ....the momma Eagle ...beautiful scenery ......then to Red Bird Hallow Vandalia ...
Got my ass handed to me by my trainer Friday night and Saturday morning. Saturday was bright and early at 0700 for a session that my trainer had to skip on me since she was in Vegas for her birthday. Decided that it was time for a weigh-in. Down just shy of 70 Lbs in 12 months. 20 in the last three months! 20 to go to hit my goal! have a 2 mile race next Saturday and took advantage of the early morning workout and ran the course I have to run next Saturday. Dropped two minutes off of my training run times. It's unreal to think that I lost more weight than my oldest kid weighs!
Been up there twice and yes it is amazingly beautiful and there are some fantastic roads, however I have doubts I shall ever visit that Communist/Marxist state again.
As usual everytime I feel I'm getting ahead in life I get kicked back down. I got promoted at work at the beginning of this week:) and things were looking up. I have almost all of my vehicles paid off except for the spyder abd I was getting to the point where I was starting to put a good amount of money in savings. Now the down part, my wife just got laid off today. I'm fucking pissed!! I have been working so hard to get my family in the position that we are in where we are comfortably living. I can't seem to catch a break. I know that I am ranting, but I need to vent so I can cool off for a minute. Rant over.
Hang in there.....good things are to come your way! Stay positive about this. Trust me on this, my husband got laid off I believe 3 times within a 12 month period. Worst time ever for us financially, when he finally got called back to work after the last layoff he landed permanent position as a night supervisor. Hours suck but it is what it is and job is secured, atleast I hope it stays that way. Been a few years now.
Thanks. I think we will be alright its not the first time we have had a set back and it more than likely will not be the last. She is working on her resume this weekend.
