Today is a good day.  Up early, kids were up before I even and everyone dressed and on the bus without a hassle.  Came into the office a few minutes early where I spruced up and opened the windows since it is surprisingly mild out this morning.  My boss brought me coffee for Admin Prof Day … even though I am not a secretary, I guess since it changed it covers all Administrative Professionals now, and HR falls under that?  Well, whatever, it means a free lunch! :)  So he is taking me (with two other managers) to one of my fave restaurants where I will indulge in my absolute favorite endive salad.  I’m afraid of what the stats are on that … it isn’t a chain and doesn’t have any published nutritional values.  Pecans and Gorgonzola … hmmmm.  But it is actually a side salad, so I will just get that and a cup of soup.

Food was good yesterday, as was the Centergy class.  I LOVED centergy!  It is a fusion of yoga and pilates, much faster moving than Saturday’s yoga class and it really got my heart rate up.  Plus she picked good music, where as the other yoga was silent except for when we were ohming to weird chanting music. :)  Which I didn’t mind either.  Anyway, the core segment nearly killed me, but here I am!  Tonight is meeting with the trainer for the second session on the weight machines.

So, XH (%$)%*@)#%@%) bailed on me again this weekend.  Has to work a different shift Sunday and blah blah blah whatever.  Since I have rescheduled my date with ICBINB (Thanks Linda!) three times, luckily I retained backup childcare with MBFF in case this happened again.  So, Icbinb and I were both talking about how much we liked breakfast (lmao, Of COURSE it was about food!) and he suggested a breakfast date for the first time, which I thought was cute.  So, what the heck does one wear to a BREAKFAST date?  Help!

And I still need to confirm with MBFF that morning is okay instead … it may not be, then once again, I just give up.  I have several convents near me that I should consider joining.

I think tomorrow night I am going to try the Group Kick class.  It’s a toss up between that or Group Cycle (their version of spinning).  OR maybe I should give the cardio cinema a try?  It looks cool, a dark theatre and real movie screen with elliptical or treadmill, etc. but I am afraid of killing myself in the dark! :-D

Yesterday one of my company’s employees in the HQ confided in me that she is actively looking and interviewing and it makes me so sad because she is just awesome.  She is the benefits administrator so I work closely with her, and she is the most capable one we have ever had in the 9.5 years I’ve been here.  I just adore her.  She has taught me so much, I will be sad to see her go.  And she’s only been with us a year!  But I understand that she isn’t crazy about the office politics that go on here, and I get that, completely!  Sigh.

Okay, guess I better publish and move on while I still have a job! :)  Have a fabulous day chicks!
