wow. i did it. i actually did it. i filled out my 2007-2008 renewal FAFSA.
so i guess this means i'm really serious about this plan of mine. and that's pretty scary. to be serious about something. but i guess if you're going to be serious about anything, borrowing government money to finance spending time in and learning about the great outdoors is a pretty good thing to be serious about.
it actually feels possible now. it actually feels like i am going to do this thing. which is, again, scary. i don't know that i have any other words really to describe exactly what i'm feeling right now. because getting my fafsa completed before february is a landmark event for me. and all i have to do is enroll at mhcc when i get home. so...
now what?
tomorrow rar and arturo are going to visit a friend in the hospital in vitoria (someone who has been diagnosed with lymphoma, i think) so i am staying home with the kids. i'm moving my hike to sunday, then, which means i'll go swimming tomorrow, or take tomorrow off from the gym and go swimming on monday instead. not sure yet.
but i'm excited to go on another glorious hike and continue my exploration of this valley and it's confusing paths and trails. plus, batteries for camera mean you all get more pictures.
i feel like i've lost so much weight but i weighed myself at the gym today (it's friday) and i have GAINED 2.2 kilos since last week! that's 4.64 pounds or something. how can that be?
and anyway, this is a lame journal update but i'm kind of tired from working out and actually getting up before noon. a rare achievement, the latter. off i go now to get my second cup of coffee for the day before i totally fall asleep in front of the computer.
ciao.
