Okay, so I have not posted a blog for a LONG TIME! With so much going on I figured it was time to do so, so here I go...
Alot has happened since I last posted a blog. Robyn Christensen and I are pretty much best friends now! Which is what we both needed, a best friend! We go just about everyday to try and find a new adventure here in Germany! We have so much fun!
This month will be Drew & my 3rd wedding anniversery. We talked about it tonight and I think that we are just going to stay around town for it. We have done alot of traveling while we have been here for the short 6 months so far! Already we have been to Amsterdam, Paris, Belium, Berlin, Luxemburg, Switzerland, & Germany (of corse). Thats all that I can think of right now. I LOVE living here!!! I even got to go and tour the very house that Anne Frank went away and hid in with her family and a few others before they were taken to concentration camps! I love reading about her! She was a very strong young lady! Well besides the fact of Europe not having ANY WalMarts ANYWHERE! But we manage to get by without them. I do miss seeing people that I grew up with though. And I really miss seeing family! I call family EVERYDAY! Good thing we have free calls to the USA! And we set it up to where people with a 706 number can call us for free too! Otherwise people will just get charged with a regular long distance call.
I have lost 13 pounds since I have last posted a blog on here! I have been working HARD at losing weight! And it is finally paying off! I go with Robyn during the weekdays to a workout class here on base, it totally kicks your butt! I have heard women that are taking the class now say they have already lost like 7 pounds just from taking this class! I am glad that I found this workout class because it seemed like nothing was helping me anymore with the weight, I have even started to gain some back! I did lose 17 pounds but had already gained like 4 back! And I don't want to gain anymore so I am going to step up the working out!
I have a dog! We drove to Ramstein to get him! Which is two hours from here. The people we got him from adopted him and his brother in Tennissee but the apartment they are living in will only allow them to have one pet so he gave me his other dog. He is a Puggle... Half Pug... Half Beagle Mix. He is a beautiful dog! He is about 21 months old now. We named him Spanky. We think that he has been abused! He is very skiddish and very afraid of people, especially men! But he has been getting better about it. I take him out as often as I can so he can be around different people. He loves going outside and playing with the kids that also live on base!
Well I need to go and get ready for bed! Hopefully I will be on here sooner than 5 months the next time! lol
Take Care!
