For introductory purposes, the following people will be frequently referred to:
King - my husband and Master
The Princess - King's daughter
Geekette - King's sister
The facts as they stand are:
* I am presently fighting a virus which has left me with a bad cough which means that I am getting next to no sleep and also keeping King awake.
* I have no job at the moment.
* King and I were both individually in debt when we met - we are both still there, which is near impossible to juggle on one income.
* There is unrest at King's workplace at the moment and we are not entirely sure what is happening - perhaps nothing, perhaps redundency, but it'll happen before March.
* I seem to have a small, but growing addiction to World of Warcraft - yes I am a geek.
* Unemployed and plays WoW - what's next? Ah yes, I am overweight. Not crazy health scare overweight, but a bit fat. I could seriously stand to loose 25-30kgs.
* Yesterday I felt like the worst daughter in the world, I was supposed to take my mother to the doctors and I let her talk me out of it because it was so hot today. I agreed, because I'd much rather be in airconditioning and playing WoW than driving in the heat in a car with no airconditioning. Unfortunately Mums car didn't make it all the way back, with a blue flame erupting from the bonnet and a complete loss of acceleration and power. Luckily noone was hurt, but my Mum was badly shaken and scared. My younger brother, Animal, arrived and helped as he was only a few minutes away. My father took the afternoon off work and all is well, but I can't shake the feeling that I should have been there. If I had we would have been in my car and it would never have happened.
Whew...small rant, thanks for hanging in there, I clearly needed to get that out.

Now surely is the time to look at the good things:
* King and I have a stable and cheap roof over our heads, living with his parents, which while it does restrict our 'fun', is very helpful and affordable for us right now.
* I have a gym membership - so why don't I use it? Motivation to exercise is a problem, and something I want to work on this year. By this years end, I will have lost the 25-30kgs that I really do need to loose.
* I have signed up to Goodreads on which I will be tracking the books I read this year. On that site I have joined one of the groups which aims for 50 books in a year. That should keep me focused on reading, rather than playing on the computer - hopefully.
* I am going to be studying again this year, finally, after talking about it for so long. I will be studying a short course on massage before June, and then in June I will start studying full time doing my Certificate IV in Massage Therapy Practice. That will be 3 days per week.
