WOW, Where to start~~
Hello ALL my lovely friends!!! I've missed you all so badly, truly I have. It seems about 4 weeks ago out of the blue I received a voice mail at my past job, I was shocked and happy at the same time to realize it was a girl I used to work with about 7 years ago. Ironically, I've been asking others about her and didn't know where to find her, so it was quite astonishing to say the least when I heard her voice on my voice mail. I quickly called her back to find out that she had been working for a huge company in OKC, she was hired on 3 years earlier as their auditor for a state program that only OK currently offers. I was so, so happy for her and even happier that I finally knew where she ended up, to make a long story short, she was trying to find me, because she had recently been promoted to a higher job within the company and was interested in finding out if I wanted to take her old job. I was flattered!! I currently was not looking for work, but I was willing to listen to what they had to offer. For starters the job pays about 8,000 more a year than I was currently making, which honestly wasn't what grabbed my attention. What did grab my attention was the fact this employer was HUGE and offered exception benefits package, stuff I didn't currently have like a true pension plan and health benefits I thought were not attainable, and for almost pennies. And since they work with the state on a program, it's all state holiday's off. OH YEAH! and the hours are flex hours so I can pretty much work what I want, and.... if need be I'm able to work from home since we are networked and I can link right into my own computer from home. I was like, "WELL, Why wouldn't I take the job right"??? I applied and interviewed and went through some extensive testing, like drug testing by hair cut, which I never had to do before, and a full background check included credit check which I found quite funny! LOL LOL I didn't mind, for this job I probably would have given blood to. LOL LOL Well, I started last week and I so far love it! I put my two weeks in at the old job and had a LOT of training to do before I left, thus the reason I had NO time to get online and post. I'm so sorry, but I'm hoping I'll be able to get online at least a few times a week, but It won't be until evening hours. Since I'm their auditor, I'm busy all day long. LOL LOL I love it, because the time flies. Me, well I'm still going to the gym several days a week, and I haven't gained any weight back, and honestly people who see me after a few weeks say I look smaller, and I think maybe I am a little again, I haven't been on the scale in weeks, I'll get back on the band wagon next week and start the usual weigh ins. That's about it folks, nothing to fantastic I guess. But I'm doing fine! I really need to save this post before it times out on me. I'll run by some diary's and say hello!! I thank ALL OF YOU who have come in to check on me, it's so greatly appreciated. Love and Hugs to you all!

Thanks twin!! You mentioned in your post about me putting in a lot of hours, honestly I'm only putting in about 8.5 or so a day, but the entire time I'm doing something. I've been running around like a mad women trying to take care of school issues with my son who just went through a graduation ceremony the week before last, now they are BOTH officially done with school, YEAH! remember one of my boys continued on with a tech program, he is now certified in carpentry, not sure when he'll go that route, but he's now able to be an apprentice and work towards his carpenter papers. YEAH! the other son, he's still not sure what he's going to do, he's so timid and afraid of getting his feet wet, or should I say afraid of failing at something it's got him petrified. He wanted to start the message therapy program, but has since backed away from that, and maybe looking into another program at the college. OIY!! Just decide something I say, and go from there, as I assured him he would probably change his mind three more times before he finally realizes what he wants to be when he grows up. Don't we all. LOL LOL
It's funny one of my sons is just like I was at his age, and the other is like my sister. I laugh at that all the time. As long as they are both working, I'm happy, they can take some time off of school, but hopefully not to much! I would like them to be on their own before age 20 at least. LOL LOL they are so good, It doesn't bother me at all.
I need to get my butt off this computer so I can get some stuff done around this house, inside and out!! I'll get online later tonight and post in more diary's, I would like to get up to speed on everyone, I'm so behind now it might take me a month just to do that. Take care everyone!
Hugs and love
Kim

I am so pleased to hear that things are going so well for you. The new job sounds such a brilliant opportunity and you would feel so good that a/ she seeked you out for it and b/ you got it despite the extensive testing that they required. It is great that you are enjoying it already - it can often take a little while to settle in.
It is great that you are managing to keep up your gym sessions and I am positive that you will get a great result at the scales when you get weighed. At the end of the day - it doesnt matter what the scales say though - the fact that people say that you look smaller is all that counts anyway. We all know that muscle and fat weighs differently so the weight at the scale is deceptive - especially with major gym sessions going on.
Take care
Love
Margaret

Aunt Flo's visit
YEA!!! she is here as of this morning, and thank gosh!! I just want to get this over with, I have felt so worn down this week and to add to it all I've been craving chocolate the entire week, which usually isn't like me, so it's good to know this is why. I worked out several days this week and even spent some time out this morning working on the yard, and then back in the house to work on stuff that needed to be worked on inside. I'm totally wiped out!
My hubby asked me if I wanted to go see a movie tonight, I'm not sure now, as I even have a slight headache, probably due to aunt flo and partly the heat. It stormed pretty good all night, so it was still a little to damp out to mow the yard, which stinks when you only have the weekend to get it all done, it just drives me nuts sometimes.
I still haven't weighed in yet, again I think I'll wait until aunt flo leaves then I'll jump on and see if anything exciting has happened the past month or so, I doubt it, but you never know. I know I have gained anything so regardless of what the scale says I'm still happy that I'm wearing old work clothes again, YEAH!!! I took about 4 skirts to the cleaners and to be mended, as two need some alterations so I can start wearing them again, I'm just grateful I'm able to fit into them once again, they used to be my favorites, and with skirts you just change up the blouse and shoes and WELLA A NEW OUTFIT, that's why I love buying skirts and shirts instead of suits most of the time. Plus I have several blazers of different colors I can just throw on to change it up to.
Well, nothing to exciting going on around here, I do need to go pick some berries, they are ready and well I'm really want to make some shortcake tonight. Our cantaloupe and watermelon plants look like they are doing well, we have blooms on them already, so cross your fingers we get plenty of fruit soon, YEAH! it's the first year for us to do those, and we couldn't be more excited about having them to pick. Everyone have a great weekend, I'll try to make it by some diary's today.
Hugs and Love
