Update...

Well, we are back in Kentucky after spending the summer in UT. I had my clinical rotation there and even though it seemed like a vacation, I was gone every weekend out of town. All the traveling was worth it though. Met some great people, made good memories with family and friends, and then got to come back to Kentucky. This past year has been quite the roller coaster for me. I seem to attract men that cheat, lie and are fake. They say or act like they are something they aren't. I'm to the point in my life where I'm not putting up with the BS anymore. I don't deserve it, my kids don't deserve it and I have worked too hard to let any man cause problems with my schooling and especially my kids. You think you know someone, then you get smacked upside the head with a brick.

Enough of that. The boys just started 4th and 6th grade. Brenden is officially in middle schoool. I can't believe it. Ian starts guitar lessons in two weeks, Brenden starts back at piano at CCM. I'm getting ready to get busy as hell with school and studying/clinic as well as trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. I have to apply for my residency which starts in June. I'm torn at the moment. Not sure if I should take a pretty big risk and stay here, or if I should just go where the wind blows me. Lots of praying to do, lots of soul searching and lots of meditating. Should be an interesting year.

I turn 33 next Thursday, I will probably spend my birthday alone yet again. I am thinking of taking the boys to Kings Island for the day and enjoying my time with them. They make me laugh and cheer me up. Getting the bug painted and getting my ass back in shape. I'm finally back in a size zero jean which made me extremely happy. Working out is starting to pay off. I'm hoping to be in a body competition. We will see.. Anyways, that is the update for now.

Cheers..

Working out...



I have been working out and doing P90X. I'm only 1/2 way through P90, but I am going to post some pictures showing some results... Everyone has seen my after baby belly from Ian... and I never thought it could look decent after having such a big baby, but it is coming along... Here are some pics.. I haven't lost much weight on the scale, but have definitely been toning out..

You will be missed John...




I found out this past week that John Larson, a good friend of mine passed away. This was incredibly hard for me because I just recently spoke with him and he seemed so happy. I guess you never know when someone is really hurting inside. It makes you realize how short and delicate life really is. I pray that his ex-wife Kristi makes sure those kids know who he was and that they know how much he really loved them. Whenever we spoke, all he ever talked about were those children and how much he loved them.. and how his daughter was so beautiful and going to be a heart breaker. I know he loved them so much.

It's been a sad week wondering about the "why's?" and "what if's". I wish I hadn't been so wrapped up in school this past year so I could have been a better friend to him. I thought I would post a few pictures he emailed me when he was in Iraq and when he got to come home and spend time with his family. In one of them, he broke his finger while his sargeant was standing on his back and he was doing push-ups. It almost looks photo shopped but it's not. He was definitely hilarious... and loved to have a good time.

He was a good man and would do anything for anyone. One of the funny things he would always say was how he still had hair.. and it just didn't look like it because the military made him cut it so short.. He always cracked me up. We had conversations about who was stronger, and I assured him he was because there was no way I could be in the military.. I would be too scared. I know he was fulfilling a life long dream he had being in the military and it makes me sad that he decided he couldn't do it anymore. You were a good friend John. I wish I was a better friend in return. Thanks for the laughs and good conversations. You will be missed...

Our Halloween...






We helped Jason construct an X-Wing fighter out of his truck. Ian got to lay under it on the creeper and help put on some bolts. He was very excited for the completion. We all went as star wars characters.. And we did have a great time.
