I am really dreading next month and being in Danville. I don't want to be away from home. I just really nervous about it and my stomach is just aching from the nerves all of a sudden. Only 4 more days at St. Joe's, then I have to work Sat and Sun at the VA then I have to head to Danville. Blah.

I don't want to stay at an apartment all by myself. I hope I feel safe. I guess I will pack stuff like it's a camping trip. I don't know what I'm going to eat when I'm there. I don't know what I'll do in my down time. I don't know if I'm going to have a guy roommate or not. I don't know if I will be able to work out.

Needless to say, I'm stressed about it. I don't even remember if there is resturants to eat at, or a Krogers of what.

I need to get a haircut; my hair is splitend city.

I'm going to the gym to burn off some nervousness. Hopefully that will make me feel better.

Wednesday is my birthday AND I have to work and I have to miss american idol. THat's sadness. But, tomorrow, we are going to Ramsey's so Jeremy can get crawfish for Fat Tuesday and I'm going to get my favorite zuccuhini (didn't spell that right) burger so all is good I guess.

My hubby is da kewl!

Today when I was at work, Jeremy came and picked up my car, washed it, cleaned out the inside, and filled up my tank as a surprise. It was a big surprise. And he brought me a diet cherry limeade. hehe. It was very sweet.

After I got done with work, I came home and rested a while and then went to the gym. Jeremy was tired and was laying down for a while and taking a little nap. It was sorta weird because I'm the nap person of the family. Literally, I could take a nap everyday. I can't remember the last time that Jeremy took a nap in the middle of the day.

After the gym, I came home and showered and then we went out to dinner with my friend Lauren and her husband at Oasis. I had never been there before and it was pretty good. I didn't enjoy the grape leaves; they made me think of eating tobacco or something. I don't like things wrapped in banana leaves for the same reason. But, once I unwrapped what was in the grape leaves, it was pretty good:)

I didn't realize it, but it's the 2nd week in a roll that we've been out with friends. that's pretty impessive since we are not what you call social butterflies. it was fun.

I think I am going to be soon. Good day. Tomorrow I have off again, which is a pleasant surprise.

For March, I'm not working on Fridays or Saturdays. except for the first week because of a scheduling mistake. So, I'm planning on making some trips to Louisville to visit family.

I wish I had a diet cherry limeade.

my dogs are barking. and when I say my dogs, I'm referring to my tootsies. and when I say my tootsies, I'm referring to my feet:)

I love good deals.

If I wanted to, I could lay my head down on the computer table and fall asleep. I'm struggling with the 5:45am to 10:30 pm straight through the day thing. I just have to do it again today through.

In other news, I have Sunday off again (that brought a smile to my face!). So I will forsure catch up on rest and relaxation then.

I think I just fell asleep for a second just now.

I had a good day off. It was very relaxing, just what I needed.

I went to my rotation today and cut my left hand 4 times. It was ridiculous. My hand looked like I was going out to play football or something with all the bandaids on it.

I need nap.

I like cheez-its. Especially the kind with the two flavors in one. It's awesome.

30 days until the match!

I'm pretty sure I don't have to wash my car since it rained really hard earlier this week. I think the wet and wind blew all the salt right off:)

Our electric bill was almost $250 last month. That's some crazy stuff since it's never been over $200 the entire time we've been in this house. But I really don't have a right to complain since some people were weeks without electricity, so we should be gratefully that we didn't even go an hour without it.

Jeremy and I are going out to dinner tomorrow night with Cheryl and her husband (at her house). I'm totally convinced that it's a little weird, you know, seeing how it is Valentine's Day, but apparently no one cares about my opinion because the whole shindig is still planned for tomorrow night. It's weird right?

In case you haven't noticed, I've added a count down to the residency match day. Right hand corner... I think you have to scroll down.

Becca!

My lower neck hurts really bad. sniff.

I almost got blown away yesterday. Just in case no one knew, the drive thru at CVS is a freakin wind tunnell on a light breezy day. Don't go through it when there are 50 mph winds!

I'm off Sunday!!!! I think it may be my only day this month. I've already starting to plan the extend of my laziness that day.

I made it in time! 350 calories on the elliptical (although I couldn't breathe the first 5 minutes--- psuhed a little too hard), and then I got home and showered. And I even have 5 minutes to spare.

I woke up this morning at like 4:30 and couldn't go back to sleep. Of course, Jeremy wasn't in the mind set to wake up and keep me company, so I finally went back to sleep around 6 and slept until 7:30. Apparently we went to bed at 9:00 last night which I didn't know. I thought it was around 10 or 11 when Jeremy got up to go to bed and I just followed him. I went to sleep pretty much right away. Maybe I was just tired from yesterday and feeling sick.

Eric and Katherine had their baby and he's pretty cute:)

man,
when I got home from work today, I felt really bad. My head was aching and my feet hurt and I was overheated. So, I didn't go and work out, which I now feel really guilty about. Tomorrow I have to go and work out when the gym opens at 9, do 30 minutes of cardio, then come home and wash up and change to go to work at 10. I hope that I feel better tomorrow. It really sucked tonight.

Jeremy is such a good husband though. he went out of his way to be extra nice because he knew that I didn't feel well. he's a pretty good guy.

Nothing too exciting going on. I finished my first week at St. Joe's. It seems like I've been there alot longer. I stayed busy the entire time today, which was nice. Time passes much more quickly the busier you are.

I have to work tomorrow and SUnday at CVS. Sunday is going to be a killer because I have to work 10-8, which is a super long time. But, I'll clear $100 after taxes which is good.

I was really stressed out earlier this week when I realized how much exactly we have in student loans. I was hoping that we would be able to pay off all of them completely by just using my pay for next year, but I don't think we will be able to. I was even trying to figure out how many days a month I needed to work at CVS in order to make an extra 20K. I think it was like 4- 12 hours shifts. that's a lot, especially when I will most likely have to go driving 3-4 hours to get to CVS's across the state.

But, Jeremy and I talked about it, and the current plan is to put $250 into savings every week for a down payment for our future amazing house, then use all the other money above our baseline $2000 that we keep in checking to pay off student loans. It should hopefully be around $3K a month, but can be less if we need to put the money elsewhere. On that time schedule, we should have all the loans paid off in less than 2 years. Hopefully.

Jeremy didn't get a raise this year. Which no one in the entire M(leaving out name cuz I don't want folks reading this who aren't suppose to) company got a raise. Jeremy reminded me to not bitch about it though; at least he still has his job, which is more than can be said for some M employees. And Jeremy was telling me tonight that he found a mistake in one of the budgeting forcasts for his Cincinatti hotel, and they are going to be $250K short. So, that likely means another lay off. I'm so glad that they really need Jeremy and the work he does, or I'll be running around with an ulcer.

I HATE it when people don't knock before trying to open bathroom doors. HATE it! What if the lock was broken? It would world is it okay just to open a closed bathroom door without knocking? it completely blows my mind. I have found maybe 1 out of 10 people will knock. The others will just try the door knob for an extend period of time, like they have to make extra sure the door is locked and it's not just randomly sticking, and there's no possible way they can maybe jingle it open because, oh, don't they try. It disgusts me. Seriously.

Tomorrow is St Joe's. wish me luck.
