Hello all!
Anagram! Only 8 lbs up??? Everything considered I call that a major victory! I too am up about that much if not a couple more.... I'm with you.... wish it was in the pool but I will step lively on the stairs as you descend into the pool ..... Empress, I will come back to enjoy the new saga.... my eye caught "fornication w/ sugar" and that certainly was enough to give me a giggle... sorry for such a short posting .... but hello and hugs to all.... ***** Thought of the day : "Sometimes instead of climbing over barricades, you've got to walk around them." ---Bono Question of the day : "What's your favorite mode of transportation??? Least favorite?" ***** |
The little white square in my palace reads I am down anothe 1 lb. its a little loss but I will take it. I will take anything that is a loss no matter how little. This is 2 lbs in a weeks time and so I am only up 2lbs. from my lowest pt. last year. Lately I have been trying harder to watch my portions, drinking lots of water that seems to help. I still haven't gotten the exercise down pat by any means. I have tried to use the stairs instead of the elevator though. The cold I had slowed me down a bit with exercising. I plan on swimming with some girls on Thurs. gotta dig out he suit. Anagram so glad to have you back. Kaylet we will keep marching forward and look to reach our goals. We have all been in a bit of a slump. I know that the Hawaii trip in March has motivated me to try harder. I also have 2 family weddings this summer. Lots of events that help motivate me. Plus some of the girls in my office are also watching their intakes so we share ideas etc. The more of us tending to what we eat and how we are changing our lifestyles the better for everyone. Good luck girls and keep moving forward! We can do this! 7 lbs. to go but every little one counts!

You are so right, casmsc (I think I'm going to go with Firefly - like that) - the more we surround ourselves with careful people the more likely we are to be careful ourselves. Yes, K, I'm grateful it's ONLY 8 ##s - when things started going south a bit around Thanksgiving and all the food was at its height - I lost all the little control I had kept earlier. Plus great neighbors have kept me supplied with great food the last week or two and I'm eating from the freezer. Getting there though. Another motivation is that the 9 year old princess has a higher cholesterol than she should so I'm trying to lead/guide her a bit without making it a big issue. She's not overweight and she does a lot of exercise (at nine, one usually does and Mom keeps her hopping with dance classes, etc. as well) but I suspect has a genetic tendencey (as did dh) to high cholesterol. She loves Laughing Cow low fat cheese now, courtesy of Mim, and dried pineapple. They are "special foods" I have for her when she comes so I'm sharing the cholesterol battle with her (though it's not been a problem I've had so far).
Today's a paperwork day. Cold, clear after a rainy, blustery night with thunderstorms IN JANUARY. Put some Slimfast in to chill - that's always a sign I'm getting even more serious. Lots of yogurt there as DS always stocks up on that for both of us when he's here and I buy kiddie ones when the young'uns are coming and I always eat the leftovers. Fruit still there too from some nice fruit baskets. So it's not all bad. Still it's GS cookie time and I ordered 8 boxes again - at least 3 I'll give to sweetie next store. And there's a new one that looks somewhat more healthy. still have several boxes in freezer from last year so I wasn't too bad. And the ones that went were often served to other people. But a grandma has to do what a grandma has to do and one of those things is to order GS cookies. |
Shh, just me, skulking round the palace in the middle of the night again. Was a heavy paperwork day. DD here. No time for exercise but a lot accomplished otherwise. Food ok, liquids ok. Not good but not outrageous either. 'Twill come, 'twillcome.
|
I've been skulking and lurking here at the palace too, keeping to the shadows, keeping to myself. Life has been challenging for me lately on many levels---hopefully I'll bounce back soon. I'm okay, just quiet.:hug:
|
Jana the Jungle Lass is also skulking; today's my day to focus on my Body For Life for Women mission statement and MYSELF! :)
I am forcing myself to ignore the piles of writing to do for the job and taking a day off. |
Hello all,
The court system tried a few times but even my luck remained true with their drawing too and I wasn't even picked for jury consideration. So I spent the morning in the court house meeting a few other "jury contenders" and being thoroughly entertained by the "Jury Cooridinator" who had an outstanding speaking style..... I told her so too.... In fact, wanted to share with you one technique she used yesterday that made so much sense when I heard it out loud.... She was speaking to a large room but I think she' do this w/a smaller group too...Each time she had something to say she wanted to make sure we remembered she'd repeat it 3 times....e ach time with slightly more emphasis.... For instance, when she was explaining when our day would end.... She was loud and clear the first time she said " cases are heard until 5 pm...." but by the 3rd time she said it w/ a bit more emphasis than the 1st and 2nd time, you knew loud and clear that as long as the judges were there, we'd be there too..... It wasnt long before you knew, when she began to repeat herself " Lunch is generally at 1pm but it miiiiggggghhhhhttttt be later" that you knew, THIS is something I should remember..... So I began to wonder how I can use that same reinforcement to get myself back in the losing mode instead of "if I don't look I wont't have to see the number"..... so.... I wonder... if.... something like..... " I always feel so much better when I only eat the foods on plan"... ( in my case, as little refined sugar/white flour as possible) and if I say it again, just as clearly, but a little louder and w/ more emphasis... and then again, with even more emphasis.... The jury cooridinator told us the reason she announces things in 3 is that the first time she says it, she's afraid her audience isnt paying attention... the 2nd time, she's hoping they are thinking " I better pay attention" and the 3rd time she says it her audience is saying " I hear and understand her".... Hmmmm "I always feel so much better when I eat the foods on plan." hmmmmmmm ***************** Thought of the day : "We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere." --Tim McGraw Question of the day : "Do you have an item you always carry with you?

Good Morning all!!
My new vice...Diet Black Cherry Vanilla coke. DANG IT!!!! I was doing so well with only drinking water and ice tea. I'm up 3lbs. (Probebly water retention from drinking soda). I only allow myself 1 per day, but jeez, seems like that is too much now.:mad: I am still liking that I am 1 size smaller now though. :o So for today..NO SODA. QOD: If it's one thing, it's a hair tie. I ALWAYS have a hair tie and probebly a back up stashed too. I have WAY to much hair not to. (It's to the middle of my back again and that's after just having 2 inches cut off last week!) Toodles! |
Dang it.. I gave in....
|
Hi, Froggie 'n K!!! :wave: And all other :queen: s, mentioned and un ... just a flybye as am enjoyin' the dregs o' my second day in a row off. Don't really feel very well, but it's depression, not pneumonia, so that's good.
K, one idea might be to tape yourself saying (three times) whatever positive affirmations you are working on, then play back for yourself. :) Sorry to be so MIA and to leave the sugar fornification saga hangin' ... almost gave in today due to some financial things going wrong. Went to store and felt the sugar callin' me all around, literally. In the end, got some peanut butter and ate on an apple as suggested in my current Bible BFLFW. Gave up the half-hearted attempt to do coherent work and took bath in vanilla sugar scented soapsuds, slept with Old Dog on couch. Froggie, the vanilla black cherry diet coke sounds yummy. Anagramatic, thou art doin' wonderfully well. Hi to the two W's ... Wood Nymph 'n Wsw! Hi to Aria. |
Aaaah, had a loverly massage today - gift "in lieu of flowers" from my sister. But she also gave sizable check towards bench in cemetery. Anyway, my massage luck in relatively recent attempts had not been good. Not getting what I needed from them. So she got me one where she goes = and this gal was good. I'll be back - as part of my "be good to me" plan.
Food improving, not much exercise. But supposed to be springlike tomorrow so I WILL get in a good walk. Now, Frogger, that's not fair. Diet soda's not supposed to put weight on. And hi there, Eydie. Been missing you - glad to bump into you on a skulk. |
Sounds lov-er-ley Anagram. Being good to your self is a good thing (ick...Martha). Yes Frogger, soda has a lot of stuff in it...but it does sound yummy!
:wave: to Empress A, Arabella, Eydie, Aria, casmac, wsw, wildfire and Miss K....hope I didn't miss anyone but am brain dead. Have a lot on my plate these days including food. Have been using the crock pot a lot, which is good, but those sweets keep calling me! I must buck up the resolution! :drill: Ceara |
:lol: ... Martha! She was just on the TV when I woke up from a nap (I keep the set on to discourage criminals from enterin' my abode whilst I sleep).
Dunno, I used to dislike her, still do, actually, but I have to give her credit for pluck. She seems divinely unrepentant and just short o' tellin' the establishment where they can head on out. I sorta like that. |
Just a small walk yesterday between the raindrops.
My daytime choices are a lot improved but those evenings......... This morning I start the Slimfast for a bit - just in the mornings probably - but it's a sort of psychological thing for me. Worked well for me before - hope it will again. Still not being strict with me. Trying to "gentle" me back into line. Cut down on prednisone now too. On other fronts, making some progress on paperwork, expect it will take forever. Still getting rid of medical stuff - now it's just prescriptions and miscellanous and sorting/filing medical paperwork. Still house has taken on more of its former appearance. All not back as it was but that's ok - looking for new/fresh ways to arrange things eventually. Still not up to talking to many people. Each time I run into someone who offers condolences, it's like a fresh reminder dh won't be back. I think my comfort zone sometimes lets me think he's just out playing golf or something. Sister offered me a ride to a family wedding in March. Had not planned to go. Probably still won't but it's something to think about. Another in CA in June. Not expecting to go to that either but, again, something to bend the mind around. Drove 45 minutes yesterday to meet dd/princesses for lunch. Pleasant. Will be going to visit next weekend - another milestone - first time w/o dh - first time in more than 8 months too. Piece by piece, step by step, pound by pound or in my case, ounce by ounce. |
Hello all....
Lots of little stuff ( everyday, runofthemill) keeping me from posting.... but you are all not far from my thoughts! ********************************************* Thought of the day: Subject: The Bathtub Test > > > It doesn't hurt to take a hard look at yourself from time to time. > This should help get you started. > > During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director the > criterion which defined whether or not a patient should be > institutionalized. > > "Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a > teaspoon, > > a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the > bathtub." > > "Oh, I understand," said the visitor.

Anagram one step at a time. You have just had a big adjustment in your life. Little changes for yourself will ease you into feeling better soon. Sometimes people don't adjust well if they take too much on at once. Maybe going to the wedding wouldn't be a bad thing. Your hubby wouldn't want you to stand idle. Changing somethings might be a good ideas but do it slowly one room at a time. Just ideas hope it helps a little.
As far as myself I have had that cough flu virus 1 1/2 weeks. Not fun but its on a mend. I have lost 2.5lbs since I started watching my intake more. But haven't gotten into the exercise as I was too sick. |
I figured that my hold on my 1 diet soda a day (which sometimes I do not have at all) is not my problem. I have the 'eat and forget' syndrom. I stuff something random in (like say a cream cheese danish) and then forget all about it. I MUST STOP THIS BEHAVIOR. :mad:
So I've bought myself some yummy and healthy foods this week. I vow to eat a good well but healthfully (is that a word? :?: ) I'm afraid we are now broke though. (Don't you hate that???) I'm still getting used to being paid twice a month now. We changed all of our bills to be once a month before (since that's when I got paid with my old company) and now we have to change them again! Plus I have to figure out what's a good time to pay what. We get paid on weird dates too. The 7th and the 22nd. Who the heck gets paid on those days? :?: So I miscalculated how and when the bills were due this past month. Oh well, we all have those days :dz: |
Hope you're feeling better soon, Firefly. The 2.5 sounds great - I braved the scale today and found I was UP about that much. Go figure. I'm feeling like I'm down and I'm up. I'm telling myself it's a temporary gain (like from eating out yesterday - always more salt in restaurant food than I usually eat).
Nope, no big changes. Promised my kids they don't need to worry about that. Every little thing in my life has changed and I'm having all I can do to make all those adjustments. But despite all the grief and the big void, I'm feeling happy too. More for the good life we've had, I guess, and for the good I know there still will be to come. Considered going to the early pool session this morning but fog so thick I decided to go to usual time. Safer. |
I agree that one diet soda a day can be a good reward, Frogger. As soon as i can get hold of some of my Tab again, I'll be back to that. Over the long haul, that's not nearly as much a "vice" as a lot of other things I can get in to when I'm feeling deprived.
Aren't our memories marvelous? Mine gets pretty selective too. |
Popping in to say "Hi" :wave: I survived the meetings and trip last week. It was a little on the brutal side, though. 7:30 A.M. meetings, full-day presentations, turmoil, etc. Almost missed my connection in Halifax because my earlier flight was late leaving but managed to convince the agent to let me board, although I could clearly see she didn't want to.
I was exhausted after the trip -- classic time to get sick, after all the stress and exposure to unfamiliar bugs and etc. But I took my ginseng and tried to get some extra rest and I feel pretty much healthy today. Feeling somewhat reinvigorated, regime-wise. Thinking, still, of going to a weight-loss consultant. Anagram, I'm so glad you're feeling the sweetness in the bittersweet! You never know, you might be happy to go to the wedding by March. Sounds like you had a nice lunch w/princesses. Reminds me, must call princeling... Frogger, know what you mean about the memory thing -- my problem, often, is forgetting how tubby I am. :rolleyes: Firefly (do you mind if I call you that? I can remember how to spell it :lol: ), congrats on the 2.5 :carrot: Good for you! Hope you make a fast recovery from cold/flu! Love to Queenlies all, but I can't see the previous page and in any case should be working (of course! :p ). Let's make this a good one! |
Welcome home, Wood Nymph!!!! Glad you're feeling reinvigorated for the eternal challenge.
Can I do it? Can I do it? Finally have a good diet day? I worked out in the pool today and so far am somewhat under 1300 calories for the day. That allows me at least 200 for an evening snack. The key is can I stop at 200 or thereabouts. Not enough water yet but small steps, small steps. Don't think I can be this "good" every day but just to do it for one day is a major accomplishment on my stroll after the wagon. Gearing up for a good February. (I hope.) Lovely weather today - almost 60 degrees. Unheard of. I think we're heading for one of the warmest Januarys on record. I'll take every minute of it. |
I did it! I did it! Of course, I went to bed VERY early.
|
Hello all....
Scale showed increase for me too.... More proof that journaling lets you know that even too much on program foods can be problematic..... SO.... ***** Thought of the day: "Today is the day!" Question of the day: "Which song would you choose as your theme song?" ***** And I really want TODAY to be the day..... its very hard to describe how it feels to be without that losing motivation when I was on the losing side...... Instead, it only seems like I have that Pacman motivation of eating everything in sight.... guess the Pacman reference is only good if you're of certain age group..... or did they release Pacman again???? Anyway.... I am putting on the Royal Losing Crown and figure this too, is all part of the process...... WoodNymph.... How clever you are to recognize the pattern and get some r &r in to avoid the usual sickness..... Anagram.... You are my inspiration... Thanks for being so honest... I can appreciate why you are feeling so many emotions....Both of you endured a long, grueling battle.....in true Royal style... you're strength is reminding me that "Love does make you strong" Empress.....Please send the royal trainers, cooks, scribes etc..... Q Kaylets is ready to START AGAIN.... Ceara.... How goes it? Eydie??? Shoveling fog at the Homestead? Firefly? How goes it your way too? Aria? :hug: Frogger :dizzy: Wsw>:carrot: Who am I forgetting? Please don't think I am forgetting on purpose...... TODAY IS THE DAY! FRESH START CARDS FOR ALL!! NO GUILT! |
Sorry I was away: computer problems!
Anagram ~ Great job! I know what you mean when you say you don't feel like being "reminded" of your loss. Not that it compares, but I went through something like that when I got divorced...a long time ago. I even refused to talk about it. I did talk about it sometimes, but only when I wanted to. Hope that helps. Kaylets ~ It is nice to see I was missed, lol! :) |
Very much the same idea, Aria. I'm sure there were people you felt comfortable talking to but others that you just didn't know where to start or maybe just didn't figure they needed to "know all" no matter how kindly they may have meant the questioning. I'm getting a little better about braving the outside world because I'm coming up with gentle ways to be more in control of situations.
Doing ok foodwise again today - if I go to bed early enough again. I'm at about 1400 calories so have a little wiggle room left. Not enough water again and not enough exercise either. Lost those pesky extra pounds that had popped up Monday morning - I'm sure it's the salt in restaurant food. Whoa, wagon, wait up!!!! Kaylets has issued Fresh Start cards and I really want to board. I'm in need of a new theme song. It's always been "All The Way" but I'll be coming up with something a little more quirky for the next phase of my Royal Romp. Looks like it's soon time for a Rousing Royal Roundup. Too many Queens be hiding out, fighting the bugs, the blues or the busys. Come out, come out, wherever you are. You are missed!! |
Hello all!
Anagram-- I love that! Fighting the busy's, the bugs or the blues..... How many times do I use one of those excuses??? And for me, too often I use that first one as an excuse instead of "how can I better manage my time ?" We have interesting weather again this am..... some fog... some not... some rain.... I need to pack lunches and get out the door.... Here we go!!! ***** Thought of the day : "The first step makes us 'On our way!' " Question of the day : "What will the title of your biography be?" ****** Take care all! |
Hello everyone so nice to see so many folks checking in. Sounds like we are all geared up to make some positive changes in our lifes. So lets go queenies! I feel much better though my voice is still off sound like a frog! No offense Frogger! At any rate I my attempt the gym this afternoon after work. I haven't done the scale this week but was a bit naughty once my taste buds returned. The first day it was like I did good til coming home from work. Then it was like I ate healthy but extras. I have been knitting and reading in the evening so less munching when I do those things. So as long as I am busy it goes okay not munching. Gotta stay on track or the couple lbs. will come looking to reatch to my body! Lord only knows I don't want that. Yesterdays down fall was ordering chinese even though I was careful of what I ordered. The sodium levels are high I think etc..... I have a healthy lunch planned and a grilled burger for dinner without bread kind open faced. Preplanning always has helped me. For those of you who need to increase your water try to add some fresh lemon slices or put your bottled water in the freezer for a bit. If I do these things I tend to drink more good luck!
Anagram sounds like your going forward and thats great. Memories you have will be with you forever. Continue that exercising you it will help you feel better all the way around mentally and physically. |
Have the drags today big time. Sleep messed up again last night but took a nap this afternoon. Not doing bad on food SO FAR. Just did some light stretching exercises and feel better for that. Feel like I need a diversion from the things I've been doing the past few weeks. Supposed to lunch w/friend tomorrow - maybe that'll do it - and maybe start me on my next, slightly more social phase.
Starting to look gloomy outside w/grayish/wet weather for the next five days or so. And then that candy-centric holiday coming up---might be a good time for me to scale-hop more than usual to keep me motivated. Today I was at 8 lbs up from my lowest and I think I'll use that as my new "starting" point. I'm still about 45 pounds down from my original start but need to gear up for a new round and not rest on my old laurels. i think I've been doing that for quite a while now. Up, then down, up, down. With the exception of having reached onederland (briefly) this past summer and almost through no effort (save good choices, maybe) of my own. Well, now's the time.....dare I think I'll be in onederland by Springtime? |
Hello all!
FRESH STARTCARDS! Get while they're hot! FRESH START CARDS!!! Snack day leftovers got to me y esterday.... so I wound up w/ cookies for the majority of my food intake.... and now wonder if that itching I felt last night is related to food coloring or what have you ( Colored for VDAY ).... hmmmm..... BUT..... when I turn my FRESH START CARD over it reads "NO GUILT" so I just am going to continue on this morning with a FRESH START!!!! This morning's thought got all the juices flowing for a speech.... Might even be a great "hand out"..... *********** Thought of the day : "A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it bearing within him the image of a cathedral." Antoine de Saint-Exupery Question of the day : "Do you remember pet rocks? Did you own one?" ************** Here's to a great day all..... and Anagram, Onewonderland awaits... if not the first of spring, you know mid spring will follow! KETTLE IS ON! |
Braved the scale today. No better, no worse than end of Dec...I'm lookin' at it as no gain. I'm on the tailgate with you Anagram! Yup, onderland awaits you!
No, no pet rock for me. So, am off. A patron came in last night...I'm still in shock. She was always so vibrant and active. Diagnosed with ovarian cancer in Nov. and is undergoing chemo. Man! I'm still reeling. She'd better beat this. Anyway...got stuff to do. :dunno: what. But will find something I'm sure. A no guilt/fresh start card for me K! :wave: Ceara |
Pass me one of those FRESH START CARDS! I noshed on pizza yesterday. :^:
And I fell down the stairs....with the baby... She's alright, as I was carrying her in front of me against my chest. I don't know if I slipped or what, but I found myself backside down on the stairs (more like a slide/fell). All bruised up. Both elbows, big bruise on my back and my rear end. She got up and stood there looking at me like "Are you going to get up now Momma?" Funny, my mother did the same thing with me when I was Sydney's age. Except she slid/fell down the back cement stairs that were covered in ice and broke her tailbone. Well, I must run for now dearies. Check in later |
Frogger, sorry to hear you got hurt! Thank God your baby is ok!
|
Froggie, so glad you and the tadpole are unharmed!
I've broken a tailbone btw and believe me you are lucky ... hurts for months and months! Stay safe. |
Queen K!!! Sorry I didn't see thy plea for cooks, scribes, etc., earlier, but have asked Pirate Paula the Personal Trainer (she's hard to describe) ... I posted about her on the BFLFW thread ... to drop in on thee !!!! :lol:
Anagramatic, I do think you can reach Onderland by spring, depending on your definition of spring, as this differs from place to place, but do be gentle with yourself ... you are doing great ... maybe just a goal to maintain and feel good, take gentle walks for awhile ....? Hi, cacsmc! Huzzah to the good Wood Nymph and noble Ceara! Hi to Wsw, hope thou be doin' ok!!! Also a huzzah to all :queen: s, mentioned 'n unmentioned. I need to get a little more sleep as I'm workin' tonight. Sort of have a sinus thing going, but enjoying my BFLFW daily exercise a lot. |
Ooh, Frogger, glad you're ok. Did same carrying 2 week old (40 years ago) and still remember that awful feeling of "is he ok?". He was but I had elbow problems for a long time.
I did it - sort of. I've strung together TWO GOOD DAYS, ONE pretty good day and one okay day. I am being gentle with me - more just aiming to eat in a more healthy way than I had been, get a teeny bit of exercise, get some sleep, come out of the fog. High functioning but still grieving, of course. Terribly lazy this morning so far - good thing No Guilt Card covers that too ;) Braved lunch yesterday - ok. Will do more next week I think. Gradual. Small steps. Have done 85 thank you notes to people who sent Mass cards, flowers, food, other kindnesses. Plus gobs of sympathy cards. Many people I need to call, etc. People came who worked with dh 45 and more years ago, many mentioned how he had helped them with their careers and many young ones said same. I truly miss my Prince Charming and I know this could be a time when I could give in to eating everything in sight (and even things I've hidden). So that's really my first goal - to keep in mind that doing that is NOT in my best interest. No need to be a Drill sgt. right now - just head in better direction, make some better choices. Right now I'm choosing to get ready to go to pool. Blah, rainy day here so I need that warm water. HERE WE GO, QUEENIES, HERE WE GO!!!!!!! |
Great job, Anagram!
How sweet to hear all these nice comments about your "Prince Charming"! Hope you had a nice time at the pool! :) |
Frogger, glad you're okay? Are you sore today? Sometimes there's that delayed reaction....
Anagram, so happy to hear that you're coming thru this difficult period with grace. As usual, you're an inspiration! I'm doing BFL For Women with Amarantha--still on week one and it's never too late to come check it out. It's really thrown me back on track! K, I remember pet rocks but never owned one. Ah nostalgia! |
Frogger glad your going to be okay. I feel like that when my baby was only 2 months old many years ago. I was doing laundry at moms the baby was upstairs napping. I caught myself with the railings and sprained both wrist. Lucky it wasn't worse oh not fun! Hope things are going better now.
Well I feel overall very motivated this weekend. I had pretty good intakes made some better choices with foods and portions. I walked around the lakes in the local state park. I did 8 miles total and it felt great! I am charting my intakes, exercise and wt. I need to do that in order to gain the control of what lifestyle changes are going on. So it will be good to reflect back to later on as well as keep me on track. It helps having a friend whom enjoys walking too. Good luck everyone, spring is on the way! Bathing suit time is next month for me with the vacation coming quickly. That sure helped motivate me. |
Hi, all! Just checkin' in to see how the palace is regroupin' after the server change. Everyone seems pretty motivated here ... Anagramatic, you are doing so well. Thinking of you ...
|
Hello All!
Yes, still black and blue (and PURPLE!!!) I've got a huge bruise on my right elbow, a huge bruise on my back right by my shoulder blade and although no buise is present, I have a VERY tender large area on my rear. :dizzy: I am now officially scared of stairs.... So I've given this job a good trial run I think, 2 full months. I don't know that it's for me. I am again finding myself with nothing to do. The lady I bunk with in my cube here is currently looking as well. She said that she didn't like the job from the start and has been here a year. I like the company though. I guess just not what we are doing here for the client. I'm dare I say it...BORED...:o Been seriously thinking of going back to school, but I don't know when that will happen. I don't have the time/money to do that right now. DH still has all of this semester and he plans on taking summer courses and then all of next year to go. I'm thinking a radical and totally not typical career change. I must be mad! :crazy: And to top it all off, I'm attempting to do the taxes, and I must be doing something wrong, because it says we owe like $2000. I hate this online site I'm using. But I hate the paper version even more (and Turbo Tax even more than that!!!) Ok, guess it's one of those days!:p |
