so I got a job, or at least I think I have a job. *sigh* Offered a temp contract at Honeywell. I have to have a background check done. No problem, they use a specific company for it. I got the paper work on Friday, filled it all out, and emailed it back with copies of the id that was listed as appropriate. Monday afternoon I get an email ( Read more... )

Okay I officially hate job hunting. I have been spoiled. In previous jobs, I had no problem finding them, and getting them. Not that I've had a lot, but 5 different places of employment, and only a couple of rejections. This is a lot harder. Demoralizing. I hate not being independent. R is fantastic, and not putting any pressure on me, but I ( Read more... )

well fell off the wagon for the weekend, and I'm on day 3 of a migraine that hits in the afternoon/evening. Time to clean things back up. I really need to make an effort to go gluten free, and just stick with it. It isn't hard, it isn't rocket science. It just requires me to work a little harder, and not be so lazy. grrrrrr. They are just ( Read more... )

well I think I am on the mend. The IUD is still causing me some cramping and spotting, but it getting less and less each day. I am really hoping it goes down to nothing. I really dislike medications, so am hoping some of the side effects of the pill, go down because the IUD has its medications targeted to the are it is needed not my whole body ( Read more... )

So it seems it has been forever and a day since I posted here. Wow ( Read more... )

Week 2 of weight watchers, and I have lost 7 fucking pounds!!!!! I'm a person that needs to trick myself, it seems. Just giving me the facts isn't enough, I need to really have limits, and things that in a way force me to conform. Knowing I have 1500 - 1700 calories to work with, my brain doesn't really comprehend that. They are large numbers, ( Read more... )

So I had kinda stalled there for a while. In a year (it really has been a year) I have gone from 250lbs to 235ish lbs, and kinda got stuck. So I am changing things just a little bit. Obviously I am not tracking what I eat well enough. So I decided to start Weight Watchers. It is a reasonable program in my mind. It doesn't starve me, and I don ( Read more... )

So today has been a very hectic day. My mom went in for surgery to remove a lump from her colon. It isn't cancerous but about once a year around christmas it gets irritate and bleeds. This years bleed was exceptionally bad as she had to get a blood transfusion to replace lost blood ( Read more... )

So with the bit of weight loss, I am inspired. Seeing as I am going to be on a cruise in a couple of months, and in a bathing suit, things need to be stepped up. So today I pulled out the iphone with the couch to 5k app, and did week 1 day one. It is 5 min warm up, 60 seconds jogging and 90 seconds walking for 20 minutes then a 5 minute cool ( Read more... )

Well now that I'm over the plague that my wonderful hubby brought home, I am getting back on the wagon ( Read more... )
