I'm Happy...

I told you it would happen and there’s no guarantee on how long it will last, but today I’m happy…

  • I’m happy that today is February 1st and that I’ve closed the door on January for another year.
  • I’m happy my boss is on holidays this week. Although this usually means more work for me, I’ll manage.
  • I’m happy that the “HR Nightmare” is gone for good. Yippee - skippy – hooray!! I still have her other team members to contend with, but without the Queen Bee, the hive is more useless useless, but I’ll manage.
  • I’m happy that my grandparents called me last night. My grandpa is 80 and grandma is 79, but they both (at the same time) just had to fill me in on what was going on with American Idol. They are so cute.
  • I’m happy that I’ve ordered the necessary materials to make this little item. I can hardly wait to receive the goods, so I can get started on my new career (ha).


  • I’m happy to report that the weight loss quest is less than satisfactory; however I’m toning what I have. So although I’m not losing “junk in my trunk”, my trunk is becoming firmer. You can’t bounce a coin off it yet, but I can actually now see a mole that I didn’t know existed. It's not a nasty mole, so I'm happy..

Have a Happy Monday!

My junk needs to be in the trunk! Right now it seems to be in the cargo bay! LOL!

Your grandparents need to call and fill me in on what's happening!

The mole - I literally laughed out loud! :)

Yeah in regards to the diapers vs college thing - we are thinking about that already. We haven't started saving yet but we are about to open an account for the boy because I know when he gets to college it is going to cost so much!

I like how you are turning some negatives into positives. It reminds me that I need to keep trying to see the positive - and it is good January is over because we are that much closer to spring and summer! Yay!

January Blows...

The Holidays are behind us for another year, the parties are over and the decorations have been put away. Now what? Apart from some indoor exercise, maybe the odd movie, some reading, an afternoon nap on the weekend and perhaps some weight loss, there is nothing to look forward to in the short term. The Holidays are a bit of a let-down in that respect. So much hype and then when the excitement suddenly stops, I’m left feeling lost – like I’ve forgotten to do something. I usually like to complain about the winter weather in January, but I can’t even do that because it hasn’t been that bad… yet. It’s been cold, but we have certainly been lacking in the snow department. I know winter will arrive and then I’ll have LOTS to keep my “bitter meter” ticking, but until then, what’s a girl to do?

Q&A With Myself...

Today is an anniversary of sorts… Today marks my 2 nd anniversary at my current place of employment.   Over the last 2 years, I’ve had some  a lot of spare time to reflect upon the career path that I’ve chosen and what wrong turns have lead me to the cube where I sit today. I’m not happy with some of the choices I’ve made, but I’m not going to dwell on those – life’s too short .   Each wrong turn has led me to something different, some new experience.   I’ve met some great people, others that aren’t so great and those who should be forgotten, but sadly are etched upon my soul.  I’ve learned some things along the way and have laughed at myself and others while doing whatever it is that I do.   I question whether I should have become a sell out and an ass kisser, but realize that I just don’t have what it takes.  I like being able to hold my head high and know that I’ve gotten to where I am in life by being honest – with myself and others.
