Well we reached the 5 month mark a few days ago and we only have a couple weeks left !! I'm so ready to get home and spend time with everyone, get our animals back, and get our apartment out of storage and decorated :) I know I will miss the beach so much but it will make it that much sweeter to go on vacation to tropical places... that is when we are ready to travel again LOL I'm definitely soaking up all the beach time I can get .
One of the downfalls I find myself stressing about is finding and getting a big girl J.O.B, I have been so spoiled over the past few months ! I know it will be nice to get out of the house and feel like I am contributing to our household again, it will just take a lot of time to re-adjust ! The other thing I am worried about is falling back into the horrible habit of eating out all of the time. We rarely eat fast food and go to restaurants because of the price and the lack of options. I can tell a huge difference in my energy levels and mood and I would like to keep it this way. I also think one of the reasons I feel so much better is because of my workout routine and the food we eat at the house has a lot less preservatives, hormones, and is gluten free.
Due to the fact we are SO CLOSE to being home, I am not going to post pics of our latest adventure ! I've blogged and posted so many pictures, I want to have something to show and talk about !! SEE you all soon :D :D :D

A wise bunny once said...
I think this election has brought out the worst in some people. I am saddened by all the nasty and hateful posts I've read on Facebook.
I think we all could use a lesson from the wise bunny Thumper....
And how about we put a little more faith and trust in GOD after all He is the man with the plan :)
