Thursday 13....

I have spent so much time in the past month being miserable about being in Virginia. So I'm going to make this Thursday Thirteen about the Thirteen things I'm going to try to accomplish while we are stuck here....

1. While we are here in the DC area I'm going to attempt to see as many of the historical/tourist attractions as possible. We've already seen a bunch but there are so many left to see.

2. I'm going to go back to school and finish my Psychology degree that I started oh so many years ago.

3. I want to make new friends to make so many good memories about this place with. So even if I dislike where we are, there will be so many good things to look back on.

4. I want to work on my marriage. Don't get me wrong, things are good. But, Things can always be better. And you never know where the army is going to send us or him next, so I want things to be as good as possible before hand.

5. Cherish every minute of my kids lives. They are growing up way too fast. Seems like just yesterday Mikey was a baby and now he's in 5th grade. OMG where has the time gone.

6. I'm going to join a walking club and get back in shape. I still have so much weight to lose from all 3 of my pregnancies and although I know it's not going to be easy I need this weight gone so I will be happy about how I look.

7. I'm going to learn how to drive in this area and take public transportation. I have only ventured out off post by myself 3 times in a month. I can't stand being dependent on my husband to take me where I want to go, but at the same time I am scared to death of these crazy drivers.

8. I'm going to join the PTO and get more involved with what goes on at school. I want to be part of what is going on at school and this is the best way of doing it.

9. I want to join the Enlisted Spouses Club. I love clubs/organizations and I love to join stuff and do things around the post. So I'm really excited about this.

10. I'm going to finish getting everything I have wanted for our house. Over the past year I have gotten so much new furniture but there are still a few pieces that I really want. And this year I want to get the rest so I can be done for a while.

11. I want to learn how to eat healthier. Because I don't seem to know how to do this could be the exact reason I haven't lost as much weight as I want to.

12. Volunteer....I just have to figure out exactly where I want to do this.

13. Have fun!! I will be miserable if I don't figure out how to do this quickly!!!
