I'm Back...
Well, here I am after a very long absence this fall. Hope everyone is doing well and that you didn't eat too much turkey yesterday.
I have had trouble 'getting it together' following my mom's death in the summer and am still feeling somewhat overwhelmed by it all.
Following that, one of my staff member's died very shortly after a cancer diagnosis, so that brought the stress back all over again. Then, the wife of one of the young fellows working here (kind of a surogate son), lost their baby 2 weeks ago, and his father died the following week. AND, the real corker, is that I have started to receive hate mail at work - related to the staff member who died. Of course the hate mail is anonymous... This year has not been the best, but we are anticipating a good year next year. It starts out with our son's wedding in January, so that will be fun.
My weight has flucuated a bit the fall, due to the stress, but I am slowly getting it under control now. I have to lose a couple of pounds before the wedding in January to fit in the dress that I bought last summer - I have a back up plan if I need one, but am hoping that it is not needed.
Well, I guess I had better get moving here. Work is calling, but I am planning to come visit more often. Hope everyone has a great day. Remember, one month from today is Christmas.
Take care,
