Furgason's at a Stand Still...

Well, as we all know how life can go, we are at a stand still with paying off this yucky debt!  I knew there would be hiccups and set backs but its just so frustrating!  I've come to the realization that I am so impatient!  It's so hard to wait...wait...and wait some more!  All of our extra money at this point is going to pay for a storm shelter in our home in Oklahoma.  I know it will be a good thing, and our renters won't sign another lease unless there is one.  Only about another $1000 for that and then we can get back on track with the bills.

Russ and I have been talking about his career options.  We really think that he has a great chance of making Chief next year and if that happens it will really determine how the rest of his time in the Navy goes.  If he makes it, he may stay for 30 years in.  If he doesn't then he will probably only do 20.  Will we stay in JAX will we move back to Oklahoma, will we take an opportunity to move somewhere else for a while...It's the unknown and here goes my impatience!  Enough already!  Will God just show me what we should be doing!  I really think that maybe God is really trying to teach Russ and I a lesson in patience.  People always say, "Don't pray for patience, because God will really test you!"  I know its what we need though.

My weight has really become an issue as well.  I did soooo good while Russ was gone.  Now that he's back...we like to eat out and eat out and eat some more!  I've been doing really well with staying on an exercise schedule.  I run every morning and keep track of my calories on MyFitnessPal.  Unfortunately I like to eat the calories that I burn on the treadmill.  So that doesn't really do me any good.  I am going to try to do better and remember the goal!  I don't really have a set weight anymore that I want to be, but I just want to fit in my clothes and not look or feel like a cow!  Teehee!

One more thing...when did I become so old and not fun!  Sometimes I just feel all we do is sit in this house and stew about the things that we don't have and talk about how someday we'll have money to do things.  We have got to stop this and live a little.  I have a feeling someday we'll look back and wish we had been more active and done more things.  If we do end up leaving Florida, I don't want to look back with regret!  We've got to make it Disney World someday right?!

Well that's all for now!  Sorry it was so random!  I'll try to enter in entrys more often so it can be more focused on one problem at a time!
