iGot it! iGot it!!!!

Happy early bday to meeeeeeeeeee! Happy early bday to meeeeeeeeeee!!!!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!



Soooo my parents are buying my older massage chair from me and this puppy is going in the living room where it will get used. I have soooo many plans this year for the house. I got the bowflex in the 2nd bedroom. It looks LUVLY! I'm gonna measure the free space I have to determine If I'm getting an inflatable raised full size (54inches) aerobed or twin size (39inches). I plan on getting the bowflex db tech 1090 dumbbells as well and a spinner bike, plus tv. Ok so here's the real coolio part! The TV I plan on mounting in the LR and and 2nd MBR will basically be dumb hubs. You will need to have a device with an HDMI (or A/V) connection to go into the TV. Then you will network in to the media center and search for what you'd like to see. Ultimately all TV should be watched downstairs but if I find some workout vids or nature videos that I can spin to, then that's pure gravy. So new bowflex, new chair...awaiting purchases bowflex dumbbells, spinning bike, and aerobed (plus sheets).

The kitchen! This area I have been dragging my feet on because it will knock me down. I'd like to tackle this after Uncle Sam rapes me without lube or spit this year. Ohhh yeah...sumthin tells me I'm gonna feel the "change" this year EVEN with 3 1/2 months of unemployment. Ok but let's just say Uncle Sam doesn't leave me for dead in a ditch and I manage to have a peso or two left over, then yes I am looking at new cabinets and dishwasher. Here's the issue....i really do like my NEW fridge. It's totally awesome sauce, easy to change filter and works FANTASTIC! It's beige...*insert oooooh shit*. Yea, less n less appliances are going beige and quite frankly if I keep my kitchen white, I'd like to see stainless steel (the ones that don't leave smudges) in my kitchen. I'd sure hate to see new cabinets and a diff color dishwasher. That looks weird. I could always look hard for another beige dishwasher, but that keeps my kitchen so 1990s like...It really is the fridge and I don't wanna loose it or just chuck it downstairs. Another thought I had was paint it black and get black appliances. While Black won't ever get old, I'd have to loose the white cabinet look (which in my opinion keeps my kitchen bright) and go with a different color wood. It's really all too complicated but it's something I'd like to change.

Anywho, the bathroom may or may not happen, I still gotta save for Hawaii and the future but I'm happy to see what's coming up on the pike :-)

Happy new year! The change

Ok well not so much the change...i don't like new years resolutions. My friend Eric said it best: You don't need a new year to try and improve yourself. You should be doing that 365days throughout the year, then see where you're at next year. You'll love the progress u see!

So keeping up with the gym and upping my cardio. I ran a marathon on a treadmill last year but since then my running has turned to poo...gotta step that up again. This year I will try and focus more on the house. Right now I have an empty bedroom that will serve one of three things:

1.) A home gym :-)


2.) A bedroom :)


3.) Both! :-) :-)

I'm going to price out a bedroom set today and see what they go for. One thing that crossed my mind is that I have an armour upstairs not being used and a night stand already in the bedroom. I can move those both in the bedroom incase I ever have a guest that needs drawer space. To FULL size closets can accomodate any guest that stays for a few days. So here's the skinny...a new BR set will probably cost about mmmm...4k? Bedframe, new mattress (no not a cheapy), dresser and nightstand. Or I can get the bowflex revolution xp, bowflex dumbbells, spinner bike, new tv small LCD on the wall and an aerobed incase company comes (full size) and some fullsize sheets.

I like not dedicating a bedroom as a bedroom. So what happens when the day mister right does come along and we happen to move in together? Then I will have to get a good portable AC or fan unit in my loft and move my home gym up there. I really should get a good portable AC or fan unit now for when summer comes. That is the plan for now, kitchen may come later this year, I still have to do some savings.

I may re-fi the house. I have no intentions on moving and like this place...it's grown on me :) Hafta wait for rates to be back down to 4-4.25 (tops). Have a good one guys and yea I will try n do better this year wit the bloggy blog. 08 was a gr8 blog year, imma pick it back up!!!!
