MIA!

Oct 22, 2012

Wow, what happened to the last 20 days?? Well, truth be told, I've been busy with personal and professional things. 

I used to air out all my negative work shit on Twitter, then I was found by one of the most "perfect employees" and I had to stop.  Maybe I'll come here and do it....

I've been very very stressed at work.  I finally told my lady boss that i absolutely could not STAND my male boss.  I'm not one to have issues with authority figures, but AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!  This man thinks his penis gives him all the power in the world!  Dude, you are NOT harry potter and it is NOT a magic wand! 

So, naturally he's been walking on eggshells around me and I've been ignoring him as much as possible.  Sorry dude, I am not your bitch.  Put your big boy shorts on and deal with it! Find someone who is under educated, has little to no work experience and has no clue what they are doing to do your grunt work.  It's much cheaper and the job still gets done!  Ooh!

(so I just ate my dinner...whoa. too fast.  eat while angry  = pain and nausea)

Enough about him.  Oh they fired someone else at the office.  Now granted, she was calling in two out of three days a week (part time employee) and that was putting several of us behind, but I feel bad to a point b/c she was/is my friend.  She hasn't said anything to me since she got fired, even though I HAVE reached out to her, but NOT about work. 

I had my six week check last week and am down 23% of my excess body weight.  I found a dress that is HOT HOT HOT that I want (think Julia Roberts black lace cocktail dress) and I think I'm going to get it and wear it to my company christmas party.  I'm just not sure what size to get.  Our party is between 6 and 8 weeks away, still.  but I LOVE it!  okay Link: http://www.dressbarn.com/detail/scalloped-lace-dress/101151279/956

I've NEVER WANTED to buy a dress.  EVER!  it's a completely foreign feeling to me, but I really think I'll enjoy it.  They have it in women's and misses, so maybe I'll have a choice as to which I can get.  I'm thinking maybe aiming for a size 12/14.  I'm in a large top and 16/18 pant right now, depending on the cut and how long I've worn them! 

I'm nearly ready to take my 8 week photos (not til next week) but i'm interested to see how things have changed.  I am starting to feel a little "squishy" in areas that were previously "firm" but that's what happens when you lose FAT! I'll take the squishy if I'm weighing less than I have!

I've been doing physical therapy 3 x a week for the last few weeks and walking two other days a week, but i'm really struggling with exercise.  walking has gotten BORING!  If I have a television show to watch (only on my Kindle as I don't have cable) then it's not AS bad, but I've been dealing with a ton of buffering lately which ticks me off. 

I went to an Arkansas Razorback Football game!  GO HOGS!  and I got to go with Kaitlin my future sister in law.  It was her first game and it got FLOODED!  Literally they had to call the game with 5:08 left in the 3rd quarter because weather was SO BAD!  they'd already done one delay, but then this little thing called a TORNADO hit about 20 minutes north of the stadium.  Yeah, time to pack up and hit the road!  You know it's bad when you're driving down the highway and you're running neck and neck with a storm chaser.  I didn't follow them, though it was SO hard for me not to do so!

Last Friday I went to the St. Louis Cardinals game 5 of the NLCS with my DAD!  I love spending time with dad and that's all I'll say about that because inevitably I start crying when I think about how much i love that man.  He's like...the perfect dad.  He's ALWAYS there for me, my brother, my mom, his mom, whoever.  I'm so freaking blessed to have him as my dad!  And my mom....holy cow, if you guys even KNEW how blessed I am.  I should've realized that when times were bad for me....it seemed as though nothing could pull me back from that edge, but my dogs did. 

okay, new subject b/c I'm tearing up. 

What else...Hmm.  I'm getting the hang of eating different things.  lean cuisines are definitely my go-to these days.  I think I'm going to wear this new rust colored top and black slacks on Wednesday.  We've got a very important meeting with a client and he's been very supportive of my surgery, so I'd like to show him that his support hasn't gone unnoticed. 

Oh! and I'll post pictures of the girls at their halloween party. 

For now, i'm off to listen to game 7.  GO CARDS!  And sorry i've been MIA.  I'll try to do better.  it's just been busy.

Love to all!
