Happy Holidays Everyone! I am getting the house put back together and cleaning everything up so I have a nice place to come back to when I get back from North Carolina! Tara and I are leaving late tonight driving through and staying in NC with her family for x-mas eve and day and then driving back hopefully the following day. We’ve both gotta work on the 27th so we’re kinda S-O-L on making it a longer Vaycay. So Today my plan is to do all the laundry, vaccuum, and clean anything that can spoil out of the fridge. Then when Tara gets home we get to pack presents and stuff for her family. I already got my gift so Tara’s been sneaky lately and trying to do something else for me so I have something to unwrap with everyone else which is really cool of her.
Diet and exercise updates.. well I’ve kinda veered off of the diet a tiny bit but working out is still going well. I am still low 160 so I am content with that but I want to do better. I’ll have to get some healthy snacks for the drive maybe some fruits and veggies and some dry roasted nuts.
Have a merry christmas and a happy new year if I don’t get to talk to you crazy kids!

Current Update.. by BradGWC
December 19, 2007Hey everyone… How’re ya’ll doin? I am pretty good. I finally got everything set for my classes beginning in the spring. I got my GI BILL money situated so I just have to Pay for the classes come Jan 2nd. I will be going to school half time taking the remaining prereq’s to gain entrance into the Nursing program at my local community college. I am very excited. I am hopeing everyone is wondering why I am not posting any pics in oh… say…. forever… well… I want it to be more of a shock when I reveal myself in Jan. Tara and I have been eating well and working out. Combined I have lost 11 lbs now which is pretty good over a 2 week period. My clothes are fitting much more comfortable I feel a lot more confident and I love the progress I am making. Not so much that it’s a lot of progress but it feels very steady. Tomorrow I am going for a run with my boy Luis. He tore his calf playing soccer so hopefully that will slow him down to my gimp ass level … HAHAHA… he’s okay now really he is! I wouldn’t be making fun if he wasn’t.
OOOH and I cut my own hair tonight. That is something that I have always wanted to do and I did a pretty damn good job if I do say so myself. I am very particular about how my hair gets done and now that I know I can do it a) I can save money and b) if I mess it up I can only get mad at myself RIGHT?

December 8, 2007WOW! the chat that I had was outstanding! It was in my opinion by far the best chat to date… I actually forgot about a few things that I could do while I was chatting but it’s okay I think it only leaves room for imporvement. I think next time I am going to move the laptop closer so I can read the chat while I am lifting and also move the WEBCAM so that I can get better angles on my exercises… I just wish that I could hook up both of my computers and webcams and broadcast to videos of the same chat at different angles … that would be sick! Make sure you visit my forum and check out the archives! Later Guys and Gals! :-p

No Comments »Off day…. by BradGWC
So today was another off day… I started work back today …. it was okay.. I lost my room key to the barracks so I slept in the trunk of my car… no worries it’s a hatchback. It was hard but I delt with it…..Then I helped my buddy rewire all his speakers in his 01 lexus is300 and the installed HIS in dash dvd player…. that was definately an all day event. I did finally get my car dropped off to get the oil changed… I had to be very mean to the service manager…. I am tired of getting poor quality service because I am a junior enlisted soldier. So I ran his ass through the ringer a time or two. After I cam home Tara and I went to StarBucks…. and I had a decaf frap..and then we went to Jesters Bar and Grill where we hung out with some of Tara’s friends and stuff and I danced and had a blast… i drank like 4-5 Pitchers of beer with one other guy and we took a Yager Bomb. Then It was time to come home. It’s now 1240 am and I am going to try to get 5 hrs of sleep…. or SO. Night guys.. and gals
Tomorrow bike….
