Realizations

We are in over our head. In all reality, I (Damara), am in over my head. After having done yard sales at my Gramps' house almost every weekend for the past month and a half, I have realized my Gramps was a hoarder. I also realized that I dont want to have to deal with me becoming that way. I realized that I was holding on to useless stuff that I dont use anymore. Purses, sports stuff, jewelry, textbooks, knicknacks, shoes: time to go! I have about two boxes of my stuff alone to add to the yard sale for next week. Its kind of refreshing to purge like this so hopefully I wont become something like a hoarder.
Our fridge pretty much died. It had stopped getting cold and so after our food going bad and us freaking out for about a week or two, we had someone come and fix it. Turns out our model of fridge has the tendency to leak freeon very slowly and will run out about every three years. Yay! <---- notice the sarcasm here. So, we paid 225.oo to have the freeon refilled and will definitely be replacing our fridge sometime before the three years is up. This is just ridiculous. I am glad I was given the fridge and didnt pay for it. I think I might be outraged if so! We did NOT have the money to pay for that, so we are definitely broker than ever!
Living in HB is getting harder and harder to rationalize. We are looking for a new place again. We should have moved into that place in anaheim when we had the chance. Figures, huh? We might be looking into a two bedroom and trying to get a roommate to save even more and pay off some of my credit bills. I have a horrible shopping habit that I need to kick.
Anyone looking to move? Wanna be roommates with me and my hubby?
I have been going to the gym and have lost three lbs! I have adopted a new way of thinking about my food and meals. Instead of eating three meals because I thought I was supposed to, I am now only eating to sustain my energy. Small little meals throughout the day, and I am trying to pay attention to my calorie intake. So far it seems to be working. In fact, I am hungry now. Time for a snack. I might hit up the gym tonight, too.
I think this is it for now. Peace out folks. Happy Easter and I hope your day is spent well with family.
