Long Weekend

This past weekend was a long weekend because I didn't have school on Monday! It was a very joyous occasion not to be up at 5:15am to take David to work! This weekend we started the cleaning process in the house for the move. Which in other words means the house is in demolition mode. We have pictures down, boxes in the front room filled with books, and Davids deployment gear in the spare bedroom. It's crazy and a hazard to walk around right now...at least that's how I feel.
Sunday was a good day, we went to church and David and I both helped out in primary and the primary also had their program this week. I love the primary program...it makes me happy :-). Then we went up to Camp Gieger with the missionaries and we had one marine come to the church and so we held sacrament meeting. The missionaries didn't have anyone to feed them so they came back to our house and ate...it's a good thing we had some food in the house.
Monday was preperation day for the missionaries and it was veterans day so I didn't have any school! We took the missionaries bowling up on base for their free time. The bowling alley up on base just re-opened with brand new lanes and everything. It was so much fun. I bowled my first ever turkey (the last frame of the last game) and I broke 100 for the first time! That night David and I went out walking/jogging. I'm trying to get myself into shape to be able to run a 5k when I get to Albuquerque so I'm trying to start now. I found a program online that gets you ready in 10 weeks so it's still going to be a little bit longer after I get to Albuquerque, but I'm so excited.
Monday night I was thinking. I commented on my friends page about what an awesome job she is doing on going to the gym and losing weight and I was telling her in the comment that I can't wait to get to Albuquerque to start losing weight again. But then I got to thinking, why am I waiting for another 2 months. So I signed up for weight watchers last night online. I'm way excited and am so glad to be back on it. David also signed up to be supportive (even though he doesn't need to lose weight) and we are glad we are doing it. We are a little nervous about driving across the united states while dieting but I just told David that we can either pack a cooler in with us or we can eat a lot of subway or not eat at all. I think we are doing the cooler or the subway thingy, I'm just happy to start losing weight again.

So did you record the Primary Program for me? :) I'm sad I missed it! I'm so impressed w/your healthy motivation! When is actual moving day? Do you have a place in NM lined up? You SURE you don't want to stay in NC?
