Turning 30, a year of learning.
Ha. For my 30th birthday I got a divorce. To anyone else this may seem like a bad thing. Now don't get me wrong it isn't something someone really wants to go through. But it happens, shit happens and there is nothing you can do to stop the avalanche. I need to be more responsible about where I vent. I forget that I still need to conform to social norms and that to bitch about my life on Facebook may not be the best outlet. That's where you come in my old faithful friend. A safe spot where only my close and dearest friends reside. And even then you can be a private entry, just for me, just so I can remember. So much has changed and I need my new outlet. I think my goal is this, to journal at least once a week, venting or happy, sad, depressed angry. all these emotions need a place to rest their weary heads. But I need to go to class soon. I feel better already. ~Sabby Current Mood: chipper | | Saturday, July 10th, 2010 | | 7:59 am |
That was so good, I want to do it again.
Sleep. Pure mostly non-dream sleep. I'm still groggy but better than exhausted. It's almost 8 am, and tho i should go back to bed i want to keep a more regular sleep schedule. I know sleeping till whenever is full of awesome and win, it's not the best sleep hygiene for your body. Now I need to focus on a normal bedtime. I'm going to shoot for 10:00 in bed and 10:30 sleep. my body is used to walking up at 7:30-8 ish on it's own so I'm going to keep with that. Things to do today, i'm going to make a list, andi like it! and yes, I add easy things to my list just to have the gratification of crossing it off later. Love love, and in a better mood...

hi.
Hello Livejournal, I'm sorry I have neglected you so. That damn facebook had too many games and sucked me into the abyss. But the good thing about you, is that only my close personal friends read you. So I can actually bitch and swear if I want to. Because, well, I can. <3 Leeny I'm feeling bitchy. Mostly due to being a girl. Like, I haven't been this uncomfortable in a while. The last two days have been painful, which is not normal for me usually. Those lovely birth control pills do wonders. I dunno, I haven't been feeling well, I still went to Curves yesterday. But like 2/3 the way through, CRAMPS, like you would not believe. I wanted to cry. Other than that, things are going alright. Summer, well, I suck at planning for summer. Job wise that is. I for some reason always have a lapse in memory, that less hours working in the summer means less money to pay bills. Why do I not think of this oh...3 months before school lets out? I applied at the local grocery store, but I don't know if they are hiring. I'm hoping for the fall to come quickly, only if it means I can start working more! Tuesday Morning just doesn't have a lot of regular hours to give right now. Which is sad. The first week of July we will be swamped with Inventory and counting, so I'll get plenty of hours then, but as for now, I'm filling the time with watching the World Cup. (that's not so bad actually) Not working...is stressful. You'd think, oh it's like a vacation, but as fun as it is to have time off, I'm the type to be aware that the money is not being made by me. And I pick up the mail, so I see the monthly bills. ACK. The pool is open, that's a positive, but Andrew isn't around to go swimming. I need a swimming buddy. So yeah, life is life. I'm going to be 29. crazy. :D Leeny Current Mood: blah | | Friday, April 30th, 2010 | | 9:18 am |
Smart Program
It has been put into motion. I have started my smart program. I have this nifty key card that has my range and intensity measured for each machine. So it tells me when I'm really working my ass off and when I start to slack. "Go for Green" is the motto. Oyi. This will kick my ass, as I am already feeling it right now. I adore Linda, one of the instructors. She's just awesome and motivating and 50ish. She has a way of encouraging and not making you feel bad about your body. She emphasizes health not weight, it's about getting healthier. So she said I should cut out 1 thing that I eat that I could do without. I'm gonna really watch myself the next few days and find what that little vice. I know it's not soda, I have that rarely unless we go out to eat, and lately I've been trying to just keep it to water. We will see. I'm excited. I am hopeful. I feel empowered. I will make myself better damn it. I can do it. ~Leeny Current Mood: excited | | Friday, February 26th, 2010 | | 11:50 am |
Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all men generously and without reproaching, and it will be given him. | | Sunday, February 7th, 2010 | | 11:26 am |

I think I'm sick again. I guess the winter of 2009/2010 is just brutal for me. I can't ever think if a time when I've been sick for such a prolonged period of time. Telling me I'm not getting enough sleep (never do) not eating right (gotta work on that) and being too stressed out. I'm sure working with the Preschoolers are a huge contributing factor, with the sneezing and coughing in your face, heck even touching them makes me get a cold. It's like a walking plague!!! But I love the little ones, even the ones that really push the limits. *rant* Parents, discipline your kids. I'm not telling you this because I have children or that I'm some expert, but some discipline would be appreciated. Most of their behavior is due to the lack of parenting in your home. You get out, what you put in, and when you're giving in to them and giving them every thing they "WANT" you are spoiling them and making them into little beasts. Give them what they "NEED" love, support and a guideline to make them a responsible being. Children WANT to know what is right and wrong. They want the structure to know what they can do to make it. Love your children enough to discipline them. I'm always surprised at how many people just drop their kids in daycare. I understand it's convenient if you can afford it, but why wouldn't you want to raise your own children? Some of these kids are at school from 7:50 -5:30. Who is teaching your kids the values you hope they will have? They go home, eat dinner and sleep, only to come back to preschool the next day and do it all over again. Who is raising your kids? And when it comes down to me having to do the job, you won't follow through with what we do during the day, so it gets undone, by the time they come back. IT is not my responsibility to raise your children. I care for them. You be the parent. *end rant* Other than that, life is good. I'm recovering and hoping that someday, this cough will stay gone, :) Leeny | | Friday, February 5th, 2010 | | 1:33 am |

I don't know what to say.
I just found out that a friend's father passed away on Monday. I've known their family for almost 17 years. I am in utter shock. They will be in my prayers. ~Leeny Current Mood: crappy | | Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 | | 1:19 pm |
sick, sick...still sick.
I feel blarg. The only redeeming thing about being sick and at home is finishing Boys Over Flowers. Everything else sucks. I have a concert on Saturday so I hope this awful coughing goes away. I want to SING!!! We'll see how tonight goes. I'm going to crawl back into bed and pretend I died there. Blech. ~Whiney Leeny | | Saturday, October 10th, 2009 | | 12:21 am |
GAH!!!
Damn cliffhangers. I swear....there's one at the end of every freaking episode. KENLYN. I don't know if I should love you more or curse you! I've been bitten by the Boys Over Flowers bug. Joon Pyo! Ji Hoo! Jan Di!!!!!! *sigh* ~Leeny Current Mood: torn | | Saturday, October 3rd, 2009 | | 1:40 am |

Owie.
Stupid me slipped and fell down some stairs this morning. I was going to go feed the cats and my foot caught the edge of a step and kinda wooshed out from under me. I fell backwards, slid down a few stairs and heard my back crack. I think I may have hit the middle of my spine on the steps too. It all happened really fast. I've never seen/heard Andrew get out of bed so quickly. I'm thinking I'm okay right now. I can stand, walk and bend over, so I don't think there's serious damage. But we'll have to wait and see. I'm more concerned about my back. The noise it made really scared me, but I think I just cracked my back and not broken anything. I'm tired. I think I'm going to go lay down. ~Leeny Current Mood: sore | | Sunday, September 20th, 2009 | | 10:26 pm |

To Anna: Found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion#Distribution_and_habitat
Distribution and habitat In Africa, lions can be found in savanna grasslands with scattered Acacia trees which serve as shade;[118] their habitat in India is a mixture of dry savanna forest and very dry deciduous scrub forest.[119] In relatively recent times the habitat of lions spanned the southern parts of Eurasia, ranging from Greece to India, and most of Africa except the central rainforest-zone and the Sahara desert. Herodotus reported that lions had been common in Greece around 480 BC; they attacked the baggage camels of the Persian king Xerxes on his march through the country. Aristotle considered them rare by 300 BC and by 100 AD extirpated.[120] A population of the Asiatic Lion survived until the tenth century in the Caucasus, their last European outpost.[121] The species was eradicated from Palestine by the Middle Ages and from most of the rest of Asia after the arrival of readily available firearms in the eighteenth century. Between the late nineteenth and early twentieth century they became extinct in North Africa and the Middle East. By the late nineteenth century the lion had disappeared from Turkey and most of northern India,[19][122] while the last sighting of a live Asiatic lion in Iran was in 1941 (between Shiraz and Jahrom, Fars Province), though the corpse of a lioness was found on the banks of Karun river, Khūzestān Province in 1944. There are no subsequent reliable reports from Iran.[74] The subspecies now survives only in and around the Gir Forest of northwestern India.[23] About 300 lions live in a 1,412 km² (558 square miles) sanctuary in the state of Gujarat, which covers most of the forest. Their numbers are slowly increasing.[123] They were found in most of Africa, much of Eurasia from western Europe to India and the Bering land bridge, and in the Americas from Yukon to Peru.[31] Parts of this range were occupied by subspecies that are extinct today. |
