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!

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!

I Was Feeling Pretty Good Until...

I had my annual “physical” yesterday.   I’ve been attending the same clinic for well over 20 years and am overall happy with the service I receive.  The clinic is part of a state-of-the-art teaching hospital, so with that I typically have relatively quick access to a network of specialists should the need arise.  With that being said, I’m usually treated by residents and have rarely had the same resident in all my 20 years. I felt pretty good going into the appointment and then not so much by the time I left.   Why do you ask? Well, first of all I was treated by Miss Doogie Howser.   I swear she wasn’t even legal drinking age.  That in itself made me feel old, because when I first started going to that clinic – I WAS her age. As she was running down the standard list of questions (i.e. do you smoke, how much do you drink, is there any history of heart problems in your family), she asked me “How is your sex life?  Any concerns?

Snot Bubbles and Wedgies...

Scuba diving can be the most relaxing, peaceful experience of your life – no cell phones, no boss and no noise, except for your own bubbles; however it can be a sport that is not for the faint of heart – rough waters, sharks and crushing depths. If you are self-conscious, shy or weak of stomach, scuba diving may not be for you. Let me explain… Warning: The following may be overly descriptive. Read on at your own risk… The scuba wetsuit. There is nothing glamorous about squeezing a size 8, 10, 12 body into a size 8 neoprene wetsuit, while sweating under the Caribbean sun. It’s sort of like trying to put a sock on while your foot is still wet. Scuba diving professionals may tell you, that neoprene doesn’t shrink, but those people are liars. What they are really trying to do is make you feel good about yourself – selfish bastards. I am living proof that my wetsuit has shrunk on numerous occasions – usually over the winter months. Coincidence? I think not. The wedgie. This un
