12/2/11 Saturday

Hey-
Today Steve is running a 5K - just sent him a  text to wish him luck.
I am mailing your package today - it's all set.  Merry Christmas!
It's just fun stuff - so don't get excited about it.

I felt so bad that we were not able to bring Nic and kids down after Christmas.  We thought Bob had that first job and that was what we were going to use some money for - we'll just have to wait until Spring as we are planning to come for the graduation.Some things just don't work out the way you want them to.  Someone has other ideas and he isn't sharing them with us. We'll just keep praying that Bob will be teaching soon.

Not sure I told you what we were doing but we are selling the Highlander - it's paid for and we can get 20k for it and them buy something less for cash. Probably buy a Toyota Sienna Van.  That will give us some emergency money.  We are doing a TIGHT budget for now - a Dave Ramsey budget!  Check out his website and all the things he advocates.  We are doing a TOTAL MONEY MAKEOVER - according to him.

Not much happening here - I have been swimming and biking almost ever day - my goal is to spend 2 hrs a day exercising 4-5 time a week.  I currently do 30 min on the bike and 30 min swimming 3- 4 times a week and then for 2 days a week I do 30 min on the bike and 60 min in aqua aerobics. So I am up to 1.5 hrs a couple of times a week and 60 min another few day a week.  I figured it would take me at least a month to get to 2 hrs a day - so far it's been 3 weeks so I think I will adjust my thinking to 2 months.


How is your exercising coming along?  Bob thinks he gained some weight so after the holidays he is going to "diet" - not sure about the exercise yet.

Let's skype soon -
Love you
Mom
