3 THINGS FOR TUESDAY
I am actually looking forward to working - yesterday and Sunday I fought the food monster hard - and it was debilitating to keep fighting it because I was bored and nothing was on tv - and it wasn't like I could just go do something wantonly. Hubby was at MIR Sunday and at Colonial Racetrack yesterday. All chores were caught up. I think when I'm sitting at home being lazy that's when the hunger kicks in. So, if I'm working, ripping and running to put clothes back where they belong - I'd be burning some calories and occupying my mind at the same time.
I may have to change around my food schedule. I've been hitting protein in liquids in the morning - lunching something meaty or veggiety, and eating a meal at dinner.
If they have me working evenings as well, I'll be swapping liquid for night and real breakfast for morning.
Hope everyone had a good weekend: I definatly got plenty of rest.
Today I am grateful for
1. My appt with the orthpedist this afternoon : the shoulder feels a bit better but I have not exercised it in a week so I don't know if its not painful due to that or if it was just a pulled
muscle that has healed itself. So I'm going to see a specialist and see exactly whats going on.
2. 23 days till ablation ( trust me after thisweekend and today I CAN NOT WAIT)
3. Extended warrenties: Bestbuy gave me a new TV - the parts to fix my 6 month old
ones would have taken another month to get. The best part is I hooked it all up
myself - and did not need to call brother or brotherinlaw for help.
So have a good day everyone
Morning DP!!
Welllll, I don't know about PLENTY of rest, but I definitely got SOME!!
Hope it was just a pulled muscle - you don't need any more issues!!!!
BTW, are you having "issues" with AOL? It's making me nuts!! First it told me I was cancelled (bill paid), then it told me it was down for maintenance. Which is it????!!!! GRRRR!!!
Way to go on hooking it up yourself!!!!!! I KNOW that made you feel good!!!
Have a great day!

Good Morning Everyone!
I am at a weird place these days. part of me is actually starting to relax and the other is, as a friend told me, "vulnerable". I am taking it all day by day, hoping that things will all work out in the end. I actually had a good weekend. Except for yesterday, I worked out and/or took a long walk on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The rain stopped me yesterday and the gym was closed. I am doing fairly well fighting the urge to eat, not perfect, but doing pretty well considering the stressful situation. I am starting to sort through my clutter and getting more organized at home. Of course, I have been working on the resume too and sent out one application today. I have a number of people to follow-up with.
Tia, I am glad you had a good weekend. Yahoo on the last of this round of dentist work. I know what a great feeling that it! You tickle me with your "apple"shopping trips - LOL!
Candy - Things sound good for the JCPenney job. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you!
Darla - Good luck at the ortho MD today!
Today, I am grateful for......
1 - The outpouring of love and support from my family and friends. I won't go into all the details, I will simply say that I am truly, truly blessed!. This gives me the confidence to know that it will all be all right in the end. It may not be easy, but it will be OK.
2 - The feeling of a weight being lifted off my shoulders. The old job was weighing on me constantly. I am actually relaxing mentally periodically throughout the day, something I have not really done in a long time.
3 - For strange mysteries - Some weeks ago, an old piece of office equipment was offered up for sale to employees. it is an old server tower that can be used as a PC. I was the lucky one to get it for only $50. This weekend I set it up (I already had a monitor and keyboard, printer, etc. First, I was successful in setting it up. Second, it works great and I am able to stay connected online, something that is critical for my job search as well as being able to stay in touch will all of my family and friends. If I had not gotten this equipment, I would not be connected right now. It is indeed strange how things work out!
I will be going into my old office to pick up the rest of my stuff and return the laptop later today. So I will be stepping out for a while.
Have a super day!

Deb -
You were in my thoughts all weekend long and I called Darla yesterday for a Deb Update!!!
You know the saying, "When one door closes, another opens"? well, maybe this is a good thing. Especially since you've been feeling a sense of "relief" and have been able to somewhat mentally recharge. As you declutter physically, I know it'll help you declutter mentally, too - and that's a good thing.
Darla and I were so aghast that your job was eliminated, particularly since you gave that company 110%. I admire you for that - I just don't have it in me anymore.
Just hang in there and know I'm there for you!
Hugs,
Tia
