9 Months This Saturday - And Wolf News Update
As for my dating we are still SORTA together, just put our relationship on "stand-by" for a lack of better words. She works overnight at a nursing home and her hormones are going CRAZY right now with work, not being able to see her kids much due to working overnight, thinking about the new baby, dealing with the worthless sperm donor jackass she left, and thinking about trying to make time for me. With a heavy heart I came to an agreement with her that we can put off dating for right now until our boy is born and then work on seeing each other after that. She will be moving to a day shift after he is born anyways. She just told me about 30 minutes ago that she still loves me deeply and we will work through this and be the family that we want to be soon. So its depressing but not all in the same sentence. I will make it though.
As for schooling I am going ot be taking some general electives classes online this spring and then in the fall to propare for my entrance into the class of 2010 at Tulsa Tech Radioloical Technology Program. It's a 2 year program with clinical labs in the second year. Should be making around $17-22 an hour starting pay once getting that done. Thats a good living for me I think.
The last few days have been stressful too. Water line broke under the slab right outside my laundry room and kitchen. 2/3 of my apartment flooded into about 3 inches deep of water. my place was torn to shreds trying to find exactly where the leak was, my carpet was mud stomped by about 6 different guys, I had to sleep with 2 big fans blowing my carpet dry the last 3 nights. UGHHHHH but at least now its fixed. Was nice to be able to take a shower at my own place for the first time this week today. I took like a 20 minute shower too LMAO.
Weight loss has been stuck at about 130 pounds lost for a while. I know I am not eating the best that I should. I admit it. I am getting some exercise in as best I can though, but I know i need to add more too. Renae tells me to quit my *****ing about my weight. Hell I have lost 130 pounds in 9 months. Thats ahead of where they expected me to be. Hell my doc said he expected it to take me about 2 years to lose down to 220...my goal weight. I am only about 65-70 pounds away from that (have not weighed recently since my scales got ruined by the flood).
Well anyways I wish everyone a very safe and merry Christmas. Remember the true reason we celebrate this day, the birth of our savior Jesus Christ. God Bless you all, I love you all, and lets continue being losers in 2009.
All my love,
Dan

Dan, you always have so much going on.....You are doing great. Focus on yourself right now, maybe a little exercise, etc. and getting geared up for school. If the relationship thing is meant to be-it will happen. That gal is pretty smart to want to slow things down-in her situation she probably doesn't know if she's coming or going right now, and it's never good to make any long term decisions under those cir****tances.
I had two great apartment floods in my life-one was on Christmas Day (in Edmond Oklahoma) and I came home and found my chihuahua in a laundry basket that was floating on a boogie board in the bathroom. (The maintenance people put her there).
How nice to read your chatty post. Congratulations on your first 9 months. You've done so well! I know you'll keep up the good work and be able to lose the last of your excess weight.
For all the rest, REST in God's plan for your life. There is such peace in doing that. For all our striving, we just seem to end up messing up things. Who better to work it all out than the Great Planner? :)
May 2009 be full of faith, family, fun, and freedom from whatever holds you back from living a 100%-blessed life. :)
Blessings,

I am so proud of you that you put this off for now. That was a very brave and yet I am sure very hard decision. You always seem so wise, and once again I see it in you! Sometimes things just have to wait and that is the only thing to do....I think there is some saying....If you love something, let it go and if it doesn't come back, then it was never meant to be. If it does come back then you will know it was always supposed to be.
I just pray that your hearts desire is what you are blessed with!
Dan, have a Merry Christmas, and may God Bless your NEW YEAR! You are doing great with the weight, keep it up!
