3 THINGS FOR WEDNESPAY!!!
Good morning!!! Looks like rain!!! It is beyond humid in our building today, even in the offices that have a/c!!! ICK!!! Today, I'm grateful for: 1. That it's PAYDAY!!! WOO-HOO!!!! Now, for the next day at least, I won't be broke. And I get to go out to lunch today!! I treat myself every payday; nothing fancy, just something besides eating at my desk. I hear a bowl of chicken matzoh ball soup calling my name!!! I faithfully pack my lunch every single day. I don't feel like I could ***** about not having any money if I bought my lunch everyday like most of the women I work with - same thing with foofy drinks, getting my nails done, tanning!! Believe me, I'm all about taking care of me, but there are limits given the skyrocketing cost of everything!!! 2. I had a great WOW moment yesterday. I walked into the training classroom and spied some friends who had saved me a seat. Well, as I walked in, I noticed about 5 women with whom I used to work who hadn't seen me in 150 pounds or so. Let me tell you about these women - I used to be the office manager at one of our offices in Jessup back in the late 90's. These women, all data entry clerks, were horrible to work with, and I really didn't even work with them. They worked in a cubicle area we called the Viper Pit. I swear, I've never seen such nasty women in my whole life - to each other and other co-workers. I still maintain it's a stupid manager who puts a group of women together - old, young, doesn't matter - a group of women working together is GENERALLY NOT a good idea. Men don't have the same issues we do, for the most part. Anyway, let's just say when I got promoted, it was a blessing. And I know they were happy to see me go!!! Anyway, it's like the commercial where the ending is "priceless." This truly was hilarious to see their jaws drop!!!! I was dressed in my finest moving/hauling attire, jeans and a t-shirt, although it was a fitted t-shirt. I am STILL flying after that. Trust me, I danced outta that room singing, "Take that, beyotches!!!" Karma is a powerful thing!!!! 3. After today, 5 FIVE more work days!!! WOO-HOO!!!! 4. Gotta throw one more in - bald Beltway eye candy!!! Woo-Hoo!!! There were some FINE looking samples this a.m. - I love bald guys. Throw in a goatee and I am SO there. SIGH. Have a great day! Tia
Comparison is the thief of joy!
If we spend our time comparing our life/weight loss/body to others, we totally miss what WE have accomplished. Keep in mind how far you have come and what you can do now that you couldn't do weeks/months/years ago. I hate the expression " It's all good", but in this case it fits! Wherever you are in your journey ... It's ALL good!!!
