Disapointment

After much consideration Rafe and I have decided to disconnect our home phone which includes the internet. I am releaved yet very disappointed. As I think about it do we really NEED it? (We had a talk in sacrament about living with in our means; it was great! It got me thinking) As I sit at home and use the internet on my cell phone (which we pay a butt load for!) I think we don't really use the internet at home that often. So, we disconnected it. It has been one week and I feel like I am going crazy. I think it's the philosophy of you don't miss it until you don't have it. I have wanted to get some pictures developed and I am not used to having to take them into the store since I have discovered ordering them online; which is fantastic!!! Then there is checking my email. I don't normally check it that often but, lately we have been doing alot of email for primary things and so I need to check it more. I could do that on my phone but, it sucks! Emailing is not easy on a phone!

My biggest complaint now is that I did not get Kenna's birthday picures put up on my blog so, now I have to go to my mom's and download my pictures onto her computer to put any pictures up. So, it will probably be a while until you will get to see how big my little girl actually is.

On the up side of all of this. I will have one less bill to worry about!! Yeah! I can not explain the relief this has given me. I am terrible about paying bills and all day long everyday I worry about if we have enough money to go around.

If you can just be patient with me I will try to keep up on posting (which I can do at work or when I borrow a computer from somewhere) but, there definately will not be much for pictures of my family. *darn it*

I'm Sorry, You are NOT the Biggest Loser!

Not to much surprise I am not the Biggest Loser. I did surprise myself and lost 9 pounds in 8 weeks. Which in my opinion is not too shabby. I did have some tough competition (aka...my sister) she was able to lose 15 pounds and looks great! I was so happy to see her win although it was hard to give up my hard earned money.

Even though the "contest" is over I am still working on losing weight and being a healthier person. I look forward to the coming year and hope that I can change all those bad eating habits. My biggest weakness is sweats so, if you would be so kind not to try and tempt me with all your wonderful baking and treats that would be awesome. I believe I would have lost more weight in the challenge but, my wonderful mom-in-law gave me a HUGE container of chocolate covered raisins for Christmas. I have eaten way too many of them.

Thanks everyone for the love and support you have given me.
