Iwan's Weightloss Journal

Well, I got called out last night in all the wind and rain on a DV assault and ended up getting beat up by a perp. Thank you back up (insert sarcasm here). I hate my job. oh, and I hate the wind and rain.
So today should be a breeze as far as food goes, I'll be doing liquid till the swelling on my stitched up lip goes down.
But, there is a silver lining to every cloud and the only one I can find is that I know have a good violence scene for my book. And I'm going to say that because it was my beating I own the rights to it. LOL!
I hate my job.
 
holy fudge Iwan!! I'd be looking for a new job... but I'm a wuss.. so yeah. :D Hope you're ok!!

I read your death by chocolate vol. 1 for bed last night - I want more. soon.
:D
 
Hey girlie, sorry about work...hope your lip is better. Thanks for coming by my diary. I've printed out installment 1 and plan on reading it in bed tonight. Thanks for sharing your talents. :)
 
You guys rock! Thanks for posting. Right now I have a huge headache because my jaw hurts like heck. But on the good side I'm in the middle of the first season of Gray's Anatomy, I got the dvd's from netflix. I'm making curried chicken for dinner right now. yum :) and squash and broccoli for sides.
 
ooooh. I'm hating life. who knew a split lip was so painful. I couldn't do the curry chicken last night, wasn't happening. I just ate squash and came in way under cals because I went to bed so early.

Today I'm a little upset, I came to work and the schedule was all changed up from saturday when I last peeked at it. Now I'm working late every night till I leave but my son's birthday is on wednesday and basically I won't see him from 8:30 when he goes to school till 8pm when I get off and he comes home and goes to bed. poor kid, what a birthday.
I remember quitting a job when he was 2 because I had missed his first two birthday's being away on business and was looking at it being like that basically forever. I always feel like such a bad mom because I have to work so much to support us. I keep threatening to quit and go on welfare for a few years. But then I'd probably go batshit crazy and start collecting cats or something.
so far today I've had coffee and water. My lip hurts so damn bad I don't really want anything else in or near there.
 
eep.. poor Iwan! Hope your lips feels better!
And sorry work's jacking you around. Wouldn't it be nice if you could find something that way only school hours AND paid really well.

its overrrrr...ahhhhh. Now I'm at home doing basically nothing. I'm totally unmotivated. I'm also watching The Incredibles with my son, for the 346,830th time. Its way past his bedtime but I'm so unmotivated I'm not even going to put him to bed. He'll eventually pass out where he stands.

I'm somewhere around 900 cals for the day. I'm not motivated enough to go in there and eat anything else. This was never a problem before. Usually I could practically eat while I slept. I convinced myself I didn't have a problem as long as I wasn't eating while on the toilet. That was my line in the sand.

I think I'll have a pria 110. I heart pria!
 
I say a cat draw lines in the sand, He cleverly covered up these little logs in doing so too. Artist sanitation maybe ?? *shrugs*
 
Thanks for stopping by you two. Ya'll always manage to make me laugh. Well today is looking decidedly good. I was awoken this am by a phone call from the local womens shelter. Seems they have a position open and would desperatly like me to apply for it. With all my DV and sexual assault training I think it would be a good fit for me. Problem is, its longer hours and less pay. But its an out from where I am currently. But its direct client services, services that years ago I accessed and I feel like this is a higher power saying, pay your dues girl.
I'm going to have to think about it, but the job is basically mine if I want it.

That's a tough one. Longer hours for less pay is a tough move to make, but it sounds like it would be personally fulfilling.

I know you'll make the right choice for you :)
 
Iwan, congrats on the job offer, yes it is a though choice - but you'll make the right decision. And how nice would it be for your clients to know that you've been there and came through it alright. Have a great day sweetness! ;)
 
You're definitely not happy at your current job so the change may do you good. Only you know if the money part is a crippler to you. Personality-wise, you'd be spot-on for the new job. I only caution you to consider the new job could create some depression of your own, if you're above that possibility, go help those that need you and don't look back. You're boss is a doucheclown and doesn't have people skills - sounds like an easy choice to me.
 
Hope you make the choice that helps make you happy and feel good!
