counting down

Only 6 more days until we set sail!
We are heading to Florida on Saturday
for a 4 day Disney Cruise to the Bahamas!
We are so excited and have been so busy
getting everything ready for our vacation.
I will take tons of pictures and try really hard
not to totally blow this "wellness challenge".
One week down on the Wellness Challenge and
I must admit I did much better than I thought I would.
I only lost one point:) I am happy with that.
I want to work really hard this week.
Anyway, did I say I was totally excited to go on the
Disney Cruise?
After the cruise we are heading to
Disneyworld
for a couple of days.
I will post again soon:)

twenty ten

2010

is going to be a good year. I can just feel it!

So much has happened in our lives

the past couple of months...

it's been crazy to say the least.

We all had the swine flu back in October.

I was the lucky one who got it the worst.

Two horrible weeks.

I would rather it be me than Gene or Caleb but come on!

My baby brother came to visit on his way to Japan.

It was great to see him.

I went in for minor outpatient surgery in November

to have a couple of soft tissue masses removed...

yeah well let's just say it don't go too well.

The next day I had to go into the emergency room

and spent the next 4 days in the hospital...

another surgery and a staph infection later

I ended up with about a 4 inch open wound t

hat they wanted to heal from the inside out...lovely.

Having very little use and mobility in my right arm

seemed to put a damper on things to say the least.

I had a nurse come everyday at first and now...

exactly 2 months after my initial surgery it is almost closed.

My nurse comes once a week and Gene changes the dressing

on my arm the rest of time...no more packing it.

I even get away with slapping a waterproof band-aid on it occasionally.

2009 kinda sucked in a lot of ways for me...

I am so looking forward to this new year...a fresh start.

We moved...again!

New Year's Eve morning we moved

into a townhouse...still in Mesa.

It was a great way to start off the New Year.

This is our year to get out of debt and

thanks to some great friends and

in this new place it actually seems possible:)

I have been setting a lot of goals and

started a Wellness Challenge today.

It's for 3 months and although I know it will be a lot of work,

I am really excited about it.

Speaking of being excited I can hardly

contain my excitement about our Disney Cruise!

We leave in less than 2 weeks.

I have spent the last week unpacking and cleaning

this new place...I have definitely put a dent in it

but I still have sooo much to do...

that is my goal for the week...

have this place be presentable by Sunday.

I am fine if there is a box or two out but I need to

have it in much better shape than it is.

Anyway, I am excited for twenty ten...

I have a good feeling about it.

I wonder about the future and hope

and dream of the possibilities...
