Well, I have worked so hard on the Two Year Plan that I had completely forgot about it. I had decided to start a blog so that I could "release" some stress in a healthy manner (you know, instead of smoking crack or drinking heavily all the time...). Imagine my suprise when I started to "register" and already had an account! I think that is a prime example of why I need to start writing things down. Obviously the beginning stages of Alzheimers is kicking in!

I suppose I will start off by telling you what I have accomplished since setting those goals:

I have let my hair grow out. I can actually put it in a ponytail.....it has been YEARS since I could do that! However, I actually have to "fix" it now. I feel like I blow it dry for an hour every morning, which cuts into my "checking Facebook" time, but I guess you have to sacrifice some things.

I am a college student again. I will graduated this time next year with a degree in Business Management. I have class one night a week til 10 pm. 10 pm is about 2 hours past the time I like to be laying down. Thanks to Starbucks, I am able to make it that one night a week. I love being back in school and it keeps me busy (because I wasn't busy enough already...lol).

As far as finding happiness, I am still clueless. I always think that losing weight will make me feel great about myself, thus leading to happiness. I have probably lost 4 pounds over all. Wow, what a feat. Needless to say, I haven't gotten to try out that theory.

I still have the junior high crush on Hot Doctor. Now he participates in my "pretend relationship". Obviously he is as needy/messed up as I am, which I find hard to believe since he is a hot doctor. Does this mean good looks, smarts, and money can't make you self-confident? Man, I am screwed. Oh, and if our pretend relationship isn't strange enough, it is now some sort of a pretend love triangle because I now have a "cougar like" crush on the new 20 year old at work. (Yes, I do realize I need therapy...and lots of it). Cougar Boy is so pretty to look at and he is a flirter too. Did I mention that I love my job?

Other than that, absolutely nothing has changed. I struggle every morning getting the kids ready for school. I will never comprehend the fact that EVERY morning we get ready (just like the day before, and the day before that) but they seem to have forgotten the process during thier sleep. It's all new, EVERY morning. What?!? Brush our teeth?!? Eat breakfast?!? What is all this crazy stuff mom is talking about?!? It is like Drew Barrymore's character in "50 First Dates". Maybe I should make a video for them to watch every morning.

The Husband still manages to not understand why I would ask him to help me do things. I mean, why should he do anything if I can do it ALL? I am popping Xanax like Pez candies to keep from putting a pillow over his head.

So, that is where my life is right now. Xanax, pretend relationships, Facebook, and more Xanax are the things keeping me from being a "this just breaking...." story on the news. God says I'm gonna make...He really does. I know I will, but dang, I'm gonna need a nap when I do.
