Just stopped by to say....
HI!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm doing alright, still learning the new job (working lots of hours) to figure things out. Getting up at 5am, leaving work at after 8pm, getting home usually around 9:30pm, heading straight to bed, stressed and exhausted. There's just so much to learn, so many new systems to get up to speed on. But I'm alive and I have a job I'm grateful for. Haven't been working out, working through my lunch hours most of the time. Meetings galore, emails galore. WOW!!!!! I'm such a work perfectionist that I put extreme amounts of pressure on myself to figure things out quickly. I can't stand not knowing how to do something.
I think I'll really enjoy the job once I figure out all the systems. I finally got access to the systems a couple of days ago, so it's nice to finally be able to do something on my own on them. I'm a let me use them and I'll learn them. Just show me how....it's not going to stick.
I want to say welcome to any new comers, congrats to any that have had their surgeries and I miss you all SOOOOO much! Can't wait until I can get back on here more actively.
Marsha, you're a sweetheart for thinking of me. Take care everyone and I hope to see you sometime in the near future.
PAM!!!!!!! I SOOOOO MISS YOU!!!! I am glad all is ok! SHEESH! Pop in at least once a week girl!!! DON'T scare us!

So good to see you! Sounds like the job is going well - but tell me those hours won't last long - you'll kill yourself, not to mention that you'll start putting less emphasis on you and your weight loss efforts. TAKE CARE OF YOU!!! Remember you can't take care of anyone else until you take care of you!
We miss you!! Keep checking in!
I get the work perfectionist thing, Pam. Not saying it applies to ME, mind you, but I get it.
BUT - as others have already said here, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE remember to put YOU first! You won't be any good to ANYONE if you're burnt out, sitting in a corner blowing spit bubbles in your lips, ya know? WE NEED SOME PAMMY TIME!!!
Imperfect does not = unsuccessful
WOW...wonderful to see you this morning!! I am glad things are going well for you at your new job. I hope you slow down soon and take good care of yourself too. I am the same way about work. I am just a guilty of that as you are. But I find if I don't slow down my body will just do it for me.
Hope to see you sometime soon.
Hugs, connie d
