Starting Over

Sorry about the wrist. Good thing you like to run. Where have you been lately?

Yeah I love to run, it helps relieve stress. For some reason, gmail just won't connect here at work. It's not blocked, it just won't load. Weird... You can still email me at the live.com account though.
 
I figured it was something I said. Gmail has been having issues today.

No you didn't say anything, just the computer acting up. Plus I haven't had a chance to figure out what's wrong with it, I've been swamped at work.
 
I'm still here , just not as often lately. It's been crazy busy and I am about to change professions at the end of the month. My current one is fun but not challenging enough anymore, plus I want something more fulfilling. Contracts, fee projections, budget tracking, etc. doesn't sounds all that interesting does it? It's not doing anything for me anymore.

My weight is holding at 159 but I haven't been able to work out near as much lately. My wrist is now healed enough to start weight training again so hopefully the scale will start to budge. I've been running quite a bit but my body really craves the weight training, plus the training I do really torches the calories on top of the cardio burn. We'll see what the scale says at the end of the week...
 
:iagree:

I'm refreshed to hear that you're open to a career change since your current one has gone stale for you. Most people are not cool enough to change like that.
 
Turns out I will be staying with the firm, they met with me today and asked me to stay, for certain perks of course. :D Oh well, I was looking forward to a change but it looks like I may get one where I'm at. Plus, I'll have to admit that I'm a bit spoiled by them as it is.

No weigh in yet, I'm holding off until next friday. Bout to go to the gym for a couple h ours and another hour tomorrow. This weekend I'll prolly take my nieces hiking.

Well gotta go, will post more later. Got a toddler crawling all over me at the moment!!
 
Reading through your blog, and what I know of you, you and your hubby are both amazing people. Hang in there, I will keep you and your hubby and your SS in my prayers so you can help the little guy get the happiness he deserves.

I still haven't done any measurements...but I will.
 
Extra perks and being spoiled is all good. Obviously they value you as an employee or they wouldn't kiss your fine ass to keep you on.

Hah! Thanks BB. I work very hard for them and it really helps that I work closely with the president of the company and I'm just as much of a perfectionist as he is. He'd hate to have someone new working that doesn't know how he likes things done around there. Plus I'm great for office morale, I can throw some kick ass pranks!!

Hey girl, I miss you! Hope you're doing great.

B!!! I miss you too. Where did your gorgeous ass run off to these days?!? Call or email me sometime when you get a chance!

Wow Chris, you must have been bored at work if you had time to read through all of that. Thank you for the compliment. Sean and I have a fantastic relationship and we live for our kids. We would not be able to get through all this without each other. We both know that my SS will eventually be in our custody. His mother will screw up again, that's the only thing she does well. Her ex-con boyfriend will be out of prison in Feb. so it's only a matter of time before she has him around again.

Now go measure!!!!
 
Hey lovely, what's new with you?

I wish I were more of a perfectionist. Only children are supposed to be like that, but it somehow overlooked me..:D Too often my attitude is, "Ah, fuck it. That's good enough!" :rofl: You wanna rub off on me? Or just rub me? :drool5:
 
Where you been? I wanted to tell you that I actually ran two miles today!!!!! I am planning on doing it again on Thursday.
 
Hi Amy,
You must be busy--I miss you around here. Sounds like the mess with the extended family is going to be heating up....sounds a little scary! Maybe THIS will make you laugh--it made ME laugh (I'd only heard the song not seen the video)

Hell yeah I'll rub ya!! Not a lot new here, just super busy. Party for the Cure was last weekend so I was swamped with that. It was a huge success and everybody had a blast. We had about 200 people show up!! I'll post pics later.

Being a perfectionist is painful and time consuming, trust me. I wish I wasn't one.

Way to go Chris!!! Keep up the good work. Pretty soon you'll be running 5K races.

Hey Val! How's my hot lil bunny doing???

LOL! Love the video!! I can't believe that some of that 80's fashion is coming back. I saw a guy with a mullet working at Starbuck's the other day. AND he wasn't redneck, very metrosexual. I tried to get a pic on my cell phone but it came out blurry. Hah!!
 
Party for the Cure 2008!!!

The night's theme was "Totally 80's" so we had about 100 (200 total) people show up in really cool costumes. My husband is in the last pic with the drummer from the band. He looks like a New Kid on the Block, although that was NOT the look he was going for. As you can see, I am in the pink, rocking some bitchin' leg warmers. Lol!!
