Can’t believe class is almost over.

Since November I’ve been taking an EMT class as previously noted in an earlier post. Only 7 more sessions!! YAY!!

As more time has gone on I’ve come to the conclusion that it hasn’t really been that bad. Of course I’m still crying and ragging on the hubby “Why oh why did you convince me TO DO THIS!!” Only because of course he doesn’t need to know I’m actually becoming an adrenaline junky just like him.

That pager goes off, the heart jumps, ears open, I’m running, “Race ya to the car!”. All I have to say is thank heavens for zip up boots. Plus even though I wish we had a garage, I don't think the hubby or I for that matter could wait for the door to be up before pulling out. That probably would be rather costly in the long run.

What I’m not liking is trying to cram in homework that I’m waaayyyy behind on, and clinical time which takes away 5 more 8 hour chunks of my days. Only 4 more to go for me before March 17th.

The sad part of class ending is the new friends. We already knew one in our class before we started, but I have to say I’ve grown rather fond of the other 5 too. Although on most days I could think other wise on one. (You know who ya are Dr. T LOL) This love hate thing we have had in class is rather exhausting. However it makes the 4 hours a night twice a week plus one 8 hour Saturday a month fly right by when your having a good time.

Plus even though it’s winter I’m probably going to miss that 45 minute drive to and again from class with only the hubby and I in the car. Yes I said it! It’s kind of nice having us time even if it’s only a car ride.

The fun part will be after we are done, have passed our national test, gotten our license’s, we will have a new thing to fight about. A race to the door for who gets to go when the pager goes off and who gets to stay home with the girls. Guess I better start working on a path of nothing breakable by the door.

Well instead of sitting here writing so much more I should probably do homework before class. That would be a novel idea. Now if only I knew where I put my books.

Let’s try this again….

So here I am again.

I’m gonna try this blogging thing one more time. I love to read everyone else’s yet wonder day to day why I can’t ever find something to write. Wait, stop, back up, let me rephrase that. I write almost everyday in a journal, more therapeutic than anything else. However most of the time those things really shouldn’t be aired to the public. People would scream, arrests could be made, Government would cease to exist, countries would fall, ok maybe not that bad but still. Maybe someday I’ll make an anonymous blog and air it that way. That would require though I get the hang of this one.

I’m really trying to get organized, focused, back on track. The last few months have been pretty rough. Life around here has gotten so out of controlled chaos. I personally have never ever been an organized person, yet have tried several times to create order in this life house of mine and have failed miserably. I’m almost done with class, and what a whirlwind of an adventure that has been. I still kick the hubby in the a** butt for convincing me to take it with him. No regrets, although I keep waving my magic wand for my homework to do itself. Hasn’t worked yet but I can hope.

Technology has really bit us in the royal behind in February so I’m really glad that month is finally over. My computer crashed, then my modem bit the dust once the computer was fixed. I tell you internet withdrawals are not much fun. Then for what reason possessed my hubby to touch my phone still eludes me but of course follow suit he drops it and it breaks. Thank heavens for him, after a complete melt down and chewing of that old rear of his, the phone was still under warranty and was replaced for nothing. WHEW. So then to top the month off and go out with a BANG literally. Our pilot in our furnace decided to blow up! Yes I said blow up! So thankful however it was just the pilot and not the whole furnace but waking up to a house at 50 degrees was not a great way to start a day. Especially when I feel this is the coldest winter we have had that I can remember. So my lovely hubby got to leave to go to work and I had to sit here bundled in ten layers of clothes for hours waiting for the repair guy. By the time he got here at 11 am it was close to 40 in the house. Then after a chunk of money handed to him, new part put in, him reassuring me that it didn’t affect any other part of the furnace, I got my heat back. Well finally 4 hours later the house was at least back up to the 60’s and I was back down to two layers or so.

I’m more than happy to say good bye to February may you take all your technology woes with you. As for you March, may you come in like a lion so we can get to the lamb quicker. I’m so tired of winter!!

Glad to be back and hope to keep a semi routine.

Something to think about in the new year....

Consider what would happen if I were to follow you with a camera crew 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for the next day, or two, or even a hundred days while you went for your goals?

I bet 3 things would happen....

1) You would START doing the things you say you need to do.

2) You would STOP doing the things you know you shouldn't be doing.

3) You would MAKE monumental performance gains and change your life.

This is ALL possible through the discipline of accountability. Accountability serves and protects your character, credibility and commitments. It ensures that what you want to accomplish gets accomplished.

Throughout every area of your life it's important to understand that ALL unfinished goals, projects and relationships are the result of all the broken promises, the unfulfilled commitments, and the lack of accountability.


So I challenge you!


We are in a new year forget the first month, that was a vacation so to speak. Make a goal or even make a couple. Take the resolutions you have already broke. Start over write them down, post them where you will see them everyday. Send them to me too if you want. Let's start being accountable. Let's start getting out of our days, weeks, months, our lives what we really want. Let's make 2010 a year to remember and a definate stepping stone to a healthy, wealthy, prosperous future for ourselves, our families, our friends for many years to come.



Just keep in the mind set someone is always there watching you! Someone is always there checking on you to keep you in line! Someone will always be here to encourage you with what ever you set your mind to!


Good Luck!!!! Let's Rock This Year Together!!!
