OT: Absenteeism

 Hi Everyone,

Please accept my apologies for not posting more often, but life sometimes gets in the way of fun.  LOL

As I mentioned a while back, things were changing with my job.  We ended up not selling the company.  The owners are a little more than semi-retired now and put me, a general foreman and project manager to run the business for them.  Once we finalized the details they booked a cruise and headed off for 2 week cruising to Alaska.  What a life huh?

Needless to say, I am buried in work and at the same time trying to attend a couple of seminars for work, the OH Convention, College Graduation for my son, and get ready for vacation at the end of June for 10 days by myself in NM to visit my family.  Oh yeah, did I mention I am running the business now and working a little more than 40 hrs. only to have to come home and cook, clean and all that great stuff we do daily.

Along with everything I just mentioned, we are getting ready to start a $3 M project in the next 7-10 business days.  I do it all folks with the exception of billing and most days I find myself correcting the clerks work.

So, if you do not see me post very often it is not because i have left the board or abandoned my friendships here.  I love you all too much for that a treasure the friendships I have made.  I am just busier than a 1 toothed rabbit in a carrot field.  That and the fact that my PCP scolded me on Monday for only losing 2 lbs. in 3 mos.  Uh Oh.........

So Monday I got on the treadmill for a 20 minute mile and the bike for 10 minutes (3 miles), and this is how I got the 1lb loss this week.  in order for my PCP to take me off my last 2 medications I need to lose another 30 lbs..  So my attitude towards this was:  I will show you Dr. Chaudhary, I will lose that weight.  Of course my back is killing me tonight.  Not sure if from the bike or the extreme stress at work so no exercise for me tonight.  Tomorrow I will exercise regardless of my back hurting.  Maybe I will go out for a walk at lunchtime as well.  The weather has been absolutely beautiful.

OK I will let you get back to what you were doing.  I am going to get back to entering all my addresses into my new mac book.  Learning this is quite challenging, but I like challenges.  It's what makes my life go round.   LOL

Have a good one everybody and enjoy the rest of your week.

Annette
