Last night was the first time in a long time I been able to go swimming. On Monday and Friday Am they add more water into the pool so those are never days we want to go. Yesterday I waited until my husband came home so we could go together. We both need to drop a few pounds and I know I have put on some weight since I broke my ankle. Not a lot but enough for me to need to work out.
Grant it if I wanted to right now I could go and work out all day, I would diffently lose a lot of weight but that wouldn’t be the healthest way to go. My doctor told me not to start up where I lift off, grant it I was very active before and yet I am still putting on weight but since I got married I been less active. I think I need to stop worrying about does hubby want to join and just go by myself if he don’t want to, this way I can lose my wieght and not let him hold me back. I am sure I won’t need diet pills, if I exercise and eat right.
To bad I don’t have a dog, they make great walking compainions and you know you have to take them out wanting to or not or you’ll be sorry and have a mess to clean up. I think my husband needs some encouragement to drop to a health weight but he sensitive about it so I have to be careful how I approach things with him. Anything I say can be missunderstood, so sometimes it less of a headache to invite him to come with me. This way it encourages him with out making him feel bad. I am still wearing my brace part time, or when I am out of the house I am allowed to walk around with out it but not to much. At least until November I think that will be 2 months from the beginning of September. I hate being on restriction, but I know it’s probably for the best.

Someone put a quarter in Otis over the last couple of days. He will come up, go to pet him and he runs as fast as he can into the next room, and then he mews. So I call him Come, and he mews some more and I say Come here Otis. He will run into the living room look right at me and mew. Come here, and then pat the chair so he comes sits by it or puts his 2 front paws on the chair. but don’t go to pet because he will be off to run and hide.
I try to watch his food dish sometimes he goes through it faster than his normal speed. Last night I caught it just about empty while he was eating, so I filled it up. Otis has been looking out the window a lot mewing I wonder if he trying to call his friend. It seems there another small squirrel who taken interest in the cat and the middle pot. Maybe I aught to put some nuts in the pot this way they have a reason to dig it up, but then they become to depedent on a human and that never a good thing in apartment building so I won’t do that. If I lived on my own land I think I would do that so they would leave alone my plants. I wonder if squirrels have territories if that why it was always the one squirrel that come over to visit me.
Speaking of pets I don’t know where Otis is, well I know he is somewhere around. I would love to get otis a playmate might help him but not sure if I want it to be another kitty or if I want it to be a pet rat or something like it. I wonder if orovo detox would be effective on female cats.

Lately everytime I load up the dishwasher and put in the detergent I start sneezing. I am not sure why I have always used Cascade and it what my mom used when I was little. I been using the lemon scented one. I like it because it just smells nice and clean.
My husband and I have 2 different vacuum cleaners. I told him use one in the bedroom where the cat litter gets dragged out, and one for the living and dining room areas. What is amazing I never had a problem with cat litter all over my rugs, until I loved with hubby, maybe it because I used to sweep my floor at least once a day if not ever other day, it made life a little easier when it came to cat litter.
Otis I don’t know how he does it but it’s like he try to bring half of it out with him. Maybe my husband and I should look into a Sebo vacuumsfor the next one we get for the living room. My vacuum is very old, and it’s about time to replace it, I would also love to get my hands on a steam cleaner, the living room and dining area especially could use it.

We all know the government had to bail out a couple of financial institutions recently. This is concerning, and I am not sure President Bush gave us enough information, what I really wanted to hear from the President is what plans do we have to prevent having to bail them out again. I understand they feel that if these companies colapse this will cause an economic collaspe and I don’t doubt that. What worries me is why weren’t these companies more controlled, watch out for more. Why would they think it’s okay to loan money on other loans they have yet to recieve all the funds expecailly when the unemployment rate as increase over the years.
The other thing which is concerning is why were people allowed to take out loans which they didn’t make enough money to pay. Shortly after the government bailed out a couple companies another bank went bully up, that one was Washington mutual if I understand correctly. I am glad thier is insurance on bank accounts and to be honest I would almost like to talk to my bank and find out, how this affects them. I know what little money I have in my accounts are safe and I am not going to get to worried about it.
One thing which I was a little disappointed in our 2 canidates is that McCain stayed back to work on the budget or what ever it was, he didn’t want to do the debate until after their was a solution to the problem but Obama didn’t want to do this. Okay Democrats and Republicans better start working on finding solutions to our problems and get their head out of their backside. They need to work together and find a solution, they need to decide what is the best way to prevent this from happening again. Will their need to be stricter acconting rules and regulations for banks. I think their should be a stricter rules for them because they are holding our money, and them collapsing can seriously hurt us. It will not be the rich people who get the backlash, it will be those of us hard workers who are bearly making it as it is, this probably means our taxes will be raised. To be honest I don’t want the taxes to be raised but it a evil which probably going to happen becuase out politians don’t know how to handle money wise so it will be us tax payers who get the brunt of it.
I am hoping my student loans don’t get affected by this, I only have about 10 to 16 months to go, still waiting on my transfer credits could be a lot longer. Might be less because it seems like when I took time off I had 11 classes to do, I know I lost 1 class so that would give me 12 classes. I am almost to the home plate and I am hoping I can make it.
I wonder how many people, who had Lasik done, have loans out. The thing is we weren’t really explained the way this actually affects us or the solutions the government is working on. Maybe they just haven’t figured it out yet.

Not talking about the food spam, talking about those lovely emails which can fill up your inbox, or spam folder. The emails you wish they would stop sending you. Problem with spam folders is that sometimes if you do not have someone in your address book they will be sent to spam, than you have to go and look for them. Yesterday I had cleaned out about 125 emails from my spam folder, most of them are about sex, losing weight, getting out of debt, and probably the home grown scams.
I have one of my email account set up to were if your not on my list, you’ll go straight through to my spam folder, because I have had that email account since I been on line. It is also the email I like to sign up for things. I have one email for friends and family, my employment emails go to the oldest email that I have.
Today I was going through the junk, hoping to find a response for my resume which I been sending out to many different employers. I got a email for diet pills, their head line was ” Are you fat”. Well yeah a little bit but I am not going to try something because it’s emailed to me, if I want to try diet pills I will do some researching and find the best one.
The emails my husband and I find annoying are the one of “enlarge” your private parts, they are always sent to the oposite sex, never the right person. What am I supposed to slip a mickey to my husband, or is he supposed to slip one to me to make me larger. Gosh I would kill him if he tried that one!
The next one, I wonder what they are up to you’ve just one a large sum of money, okay we all know they just trying to get us to buy stuff or get our information to use it for identity theft.
