possible vacation on the horizon

yes, we still live at 54 Kansas. :o)
So i am doing my best to convince my husband that we need to take a week or so and take a vacation together. When he returns to the states, he flies into a base in Jacksonville Florida, so my proposal is that i meet him in Florida, Orlando, specifically, and we take a week to have some fun. my arguments are thus: we never got a honeymoon, this is the last chance we'll get to do this before we start our family, i am getting a very large chirstmas bonus which can be put towards this adventure, and this can be our christmas present to each other. i have pitched it to him before with little success because of finances, but yesterday i finally had all my ducks in a row and i really laid it on thick! :oD he was whining a lot but i think i might have him. it is now my task to come up with the cheapest way possible to accomplish this.
in other news, please say some prayers for me when you t hink of it. i have discovered that one of my greatest weaknesses at this time is LAZINESS! i am seriously overweight and would like to lose 5 pounds a month to be at my goal by the time he gets home - i want this to happen very much but i am losing the battle with my laziness to accomplish it. any help would be appreciated. thanks. :o)

I can sympathize with the laziness factor. I feel like a big blob and was fully planning on starting to consistently go on a walk every day while at my parents, at least around the block a few times just to get moving and get some fresh air, but then the weather decided to rain on my parade for a few days in the literal sense (and blow cold gusts in my face as well), and so I still wait to start my routine. Maybe we need to be accountability partners and be required to check in with each other every couple of days or something like that. I'm open to ideas on motivation as well!
