It is my goal to start going to the gym again on a regular basis or if my schedule doesn't allow it, to at least walk around the track/field during sports practices (cause we all know I'm there enough with 3 children!).
I will be trying to more closely watch what I eat. While I have been doing decent with this, I still crack under pressure of fast food when it's more convenient than going home to cook something. I have recently started doing freezer cooking and this works wonders for our family. It's mostly during my lunch or the weekends where I'm exhausted or we're between games that I tend to resort to fast food. I need to better plan lunches and weekends to avoid this.
Since I've been working full-time since the school year started, I haven't had too much trouble sleeping like I was during the beginning of deployment. We'll see if that continues as I begin to cut hours over the next few weeks.
As far as relaxation. I need to come up with a plan for this one. I try to get the grandparents to take my kids at least one weekend a month with ideas of pure relaxation in my mind. However, I generally seem to fill up that time hanging out with friends and constantly being on the go - fun, but not very relaxing. I need suggestions on daily relaxation techniques. How do you relax after a long day?

I've started meditating. It might be kind of hard with the kids, but it really helps me.
You can do it Amy!!! Hmm.... meditating - I've never tried that!
