Ok, so I never once drank 3 of my water bottles. That being said, I have been drinking more and haven't had any soda since my blog post. As far as my goal list goes....well...homework got done and I almost saw the bottom of the laundry basket. I did accomplish a few things...but the big ones...going to the department of human resources....not so much.&lt;br /&gt;Right now my goal is simply to make it through until I graduate. Of course, after I manage that, I will have another year before I get my master's in education. I haven't been on any walks because I have been tooo slammed down..dog tired..depressed and craving those pain pills....oh yea...another goal I don't think I mentioned.....get rid of this horrid addiction. Easier said than done.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VTCi83K8eYk/Sh3zyWRinyI/AAAAAAAAAQk/Cy0LpylWjOQ/s1600-h/Truth_by_rowaneagle.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340692779429437218" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VTCi83K8eYk/Sh3zyWRinyI/AAAAAAAAAQk/Cy0LpylWjOQ/s320/Truth_by_rowaneagle.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3986670260052391575-5207954744334173420?l=grownuptable.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://grownuptable.blogspot.com/feeds/5207954744334173420/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://grownuptable.blogspot.com/2009/05/whoa.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3986670260052391575/posts/default/5207954744334173420'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3986670260052391575/posts/default/5207954744334173420'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://grownuptable.blogspot.com/2009/05/whoa.html' title='Whoa'/><author><name>Brandi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04549547766855054851</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_VTCi83K8eYk/SCU6ifjA3CI/AAAAAAAAACU/YFoZRP_ifvg/S220/100_0959+copy.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VTCi83K8eYk/Sh3zyWRinyI/AAAAAAAAAQk/Cy0LpylWjOQ/s72-c/Truth_by_rowaneagle.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986670260052391575.post-8445661390012157227</id><published>2009-05-15T21:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-16T10:53:48.573-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I am not a grown up</title><content type='html'>I have come to the realization lately that I am not a grown-up. I am going through the motions. I still want to sit at the kid's table, even though I have one of my own now. My life has been spiraling out of control and this blog is going to be my outlet and my aid. Here I will find accountability with myself and the other two people who may or may not stumble upon this blog. I will post my goals, my triumphs, my drama, my failures. I will post my to-do lists here and watch as they grow and twindle-as lists do in the adult world. I will post at least one picture with each blog post-regardless of its relevancy to the topic at hand. I will keep track of my quest for better health and my quest to become a teacher and the quest to become the best mom I can be to my daughter, Sydney.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My goals for next week, May 17th and the chaotic 6 days that will come after it:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am going to start small:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;I am going to drink water, 3 of my water bottles full each day. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Empty the laundry basket-as in wash and put away the entire thing.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;My to-do list for this next week:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Short Story homework&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Film class homework&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Contemp lit class homework&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Spanish homework&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Mail out fingerprint form for the Oregon Department of Education&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Go to the Department of Human Resources and pick up needed paperwork&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Fill out said paperwork&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;See advisor at school about my DARS report so I can graduate next month&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Go to Genesis Process class on Monday night&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Dentist apt.
