So, I planted some blueberry bushes in planters and am hoping I will get berries from them next year. I also want to get a strawberry plant for the patio and maybe a tomato plant. Unfortunately, it looks like I won't be able to get a garden done in the back yard this summer due to 2 more pressing items. The first is that I need a new water softener ( Read more... ) -
Work and such
I am finally on 2nd shift permanently since I am out of training as a coordinator at work. Things are getting better since they are slowly giving us jobs and responsibility that are different from the people that trained us. It is making everyone a little less edgy knowing that we will have things to do and are not jeopardizing anyone else's job.

Walking
I walk so much at work now. Before I was walking 10-12 miles a day at work as a quality assurance person. I am pretty sure I walk around 15 miles now. My feet don't hurt, but my lower back kills at the end of the day. It is getting better, though.
I am debating when to start up the Insanity program again since I stopped right before thanksgiving and ( Read more... ) -
Life at assembly
So far, I am tired. Way more walking. Also, there is no sitting time or mats to stand on. On the bright side what they want me to do doesn't seem too hard or stressful at the moment. On the dark side, I am still unsure exactly what my job responsibilities are.

Update
So, I accepted a promotion at work last week. I will be moving to a different factory (assembly) to become a coordinator (second level supervisor*) in a couple weeks. It is a salaried position and is a great opportunity. The hours are longer, but it is a position I wouldn't be offered for years, normally, and so I really felt the need to accept.

Home Ownership...
A pond is not welcome in my basement:
So, the water softener this morning decided it wanted the basement to have a pond. It decided that the hoses which empty the water into the drainage pipe were no longer friends of that particular pipe and leapt out whilst spewing water in a fit of rage. Hence a tiny swamp was made of the carpet in the hallway ( Read more... ) -

Well, I haven't updated in a while and there isn't much happening. Buck and Liz moved in with me as tenants which is great for everyone (low rent for them, lower bills for me) and life has been going pretty well. I am having the roof, gutters, flashing, and downspouts done on my house. It is taking a while, but so far everything is being done ( Read more... ) -
Derp
Not much happening 'round here. Started the Insanity diet/exercise thing. Lost a good 7 lbs of water weight the first week, and already feeling more in shape from the stamina I am building. The hardest part of this whole thing is eating 5 times a day. This means I have to either get up super early or stay up really late. Sigh.

Angry for day 1 only
On Monday I started the Insanity workout regime. I also started their diet which is delicious and filling...it just takes forever to make it all and to wash all the dishes. So far so good. 5 lbs water weight lost. I will have to recalculate my caloric needs this weekend and figure out meals for the next week.
Also, all the overtime at work...in ( Read more... ) -
Even larger
Yeah. Took George to get neutered yesterday an he gained over a pound. 11lbs 10 oz! The orange purr beast is glad to be back and has returned to his lap warming ways.
Hmmm. I work Saturday....being a factory and all we can't have a 4 day work week! That would be insane!
Otherwise, not much going on. Perhaps a cold is coming to attack me?
