IPhone Taken, Computer Crashed, Car Wrecked.....

   I was doing extremely well keeping up with posting every once in awhile. This was in huge part to my new IPhone. As you can tell from the lack of posting, my phone is gone for the time being. I can't give any more info than that, but once I can ... the beans will spill!!
   So after the IPhone was taken I decided I could still get on my computer and blog when the boys were sleeping. Well... our computer received the blue screen of death and now I can't get past a screen that says... blah blah if you have new software installed... contact computer person... blah blah blah. I was pretty unhappy not only because I can't blog, but also because I am going to school online. I do a lot of my school work at work, but I can't rely on that because last semester I was taking a psychology class that required us to listen to several podcasts a week. My work computer is blocked from those podcasts, so... as for now, no more school for me.
  To make life even better two weeks ago I was driving home after picking up the boys and someone pulled out of a gas station and into my car! They've claimed liability so yesterday they towed my car to a lot so they can appraise it and see if it's totaled or if we're going to get it fixed. We're under the impression that it's not going to be salvageable. We've been talking about a car, but can really afford it right now, so we might be stuck with one ride for awhile.
  On a good note, I'm applying for a commissioning program. The process is long, but self explanatory and will definitely be worth it IF I get in. I'm running into the issue of transcripts costing a TON of money!!!! It doesn't help that I need 4 copies from 4 different schools. One wants $20 for one!! I told them I thought 20 bucks for a piece of paper and an envelope was absurd and I haven't heard back from them... SO we'll see!! If that doesn't work out I'm going to cross train and am thinking about going into contracting... 6 figures in the civilian sector!!! AND it's a job that I looked at when first coming into the military so it's not all about the money.
  I've started a new diet... HCG.. there's a lot of sceptics, but if I can lose a large amount of weight quickly I'll be able to be more active and keep the weight off. I've lost 4 pounds in 3 days, so I'm not about to stop because people think it's crazy to not eat starches or sugars for a few weeks!
  I still haven't found time to get out the sewing machine, and now that I'm on this diet cooking has become a little more grill and salad oriented so things there are pretty boring!
