What a crazy day. Our new receptionist started today and it was the craziest Monday we’ve had in over a month. I’m impressed she didn’t turn in a resignation today! I’ve been training her since I’ve been doing the reception job and my caseworker job for the past three months. I am so relieved to have someone else up front. I can concentrate on my casework now. I think she’s gonna work out fine.

Today was a good day. No stress eating even though it was so busy. I didn’t make it to the Y this morning but went for a 30 minute walk on lunch break. Our new receptionist joined me so it was good to have an opportunity to be a good influence on her and get to know her a little more.

Tomorrow, I hope to have a picture in my post and my stats as well. I’m not going to concentrate so much on the pounds as I am how I feel and how my clothes feel. But, since I know myself well, I will weigh in and report every week. If I don’t, I lose focus too easily. I’m just going to take it one step at a time; slowly but surely.  God bless.

 For fun. I’m from KY and I laughed out loud! I love accents and a southern one is among the best. Plus, it’s fun to be able to laugh at yourself sometimes.
