A Little Less Mrs. Smith

So I am finishing up my vacation this week. I took a spur of the moment vacation last week because things at my job where becoming…….too much.  I just feel stressed.

Last Friday I had a job interview for a NORMAL job. 8-5 MOnday-Friday no nights, no weekends. I won’t hear anything for 2 weeks. Please keep me in prayers that i get a call back.  I sent a thank you thank you for the interview. It was my first interview since I was 16 and worked at Shop N Save.

Diet and exercise….out the window this week. But I am ready to get back on the wagon. Looking forward to fall, to BL new season, and some changes.

Drunken weirdness in my family, sorry!

Peace, Love, and a brand new day,

Nicole

PS I caught up with everyone on my subscribed list, sorry I have been MIA but I will try and be around more  to keep me accountable.

They opened up this really nice gym by us, LA Fitnesss and I went and tried it out today. I got a free week pass. I don’t kow. If I don’t like it I may finally have talked Ray into buying me a treadmill.

Keeping my head up, and reaching for the stars this week,

Nicole

So I have had a busy week.

• I gained 3 pounds this week.
• I emailed/faxed out about 10 resumes. No calls yet. I go between the fact that over all I love  my job, to needing out of there like  yesterday.
• Wednesday night I had to take a server into the back and talk to her about how I know she is ON something drug wise and that if I catch her or think she is up to no good she will be sent home. So i go to do the drawer that night and it is short $100, and the next day the owners fire her.  It has me a turmoil.
• Sunday and Monday were Kennywood and Idlewild and we had a good time both days.  LOTS of walking which for the first time since November was trhe only exercise I had this week.  I had so much other stuff going on I took a break.
• Wednesday someone came to the house to look at it. They loved the outside….but then our AHole neighbor left his dog out and it never stops barking and the husband refused to come in and look at the inside because no ay would he move next to that dog.  (Ha why do you think we are tryng to move?) But it has been hard enough just to get someone to look and then to have them not come in because of that piece of trash…
• So finally it is the weekend. I am all excited we finally have a little money and I have this huge Joanne fabrics list of stuff and I am going with out the kids, and I jump in the van, throw it in reverse, and hit a  car parked in the street across from my driveway. I feel like crying just writing all of that.

So lets review: stuck at my job, not sure if I have any expierence to go anywhere,  stuck in this piece of crap house with jerk off neighbors,backed into a car, and got someone fired. I can say I am not having the best week  ever.  At least my family is all healthy and relatively happy.

Julie sorry I didn’t call!  I am in the middle ofa pity party for one!

Do you subscribe to your buddies blogs? I have almost all of mine subscribed too and make an effort to read their updates but find that most never note me.

The last few days the inner fat me has been beating the crap out of the skinny girl I want to be. Saturday I ate out, Sundat ate at Kennywood, Monday at Idlewild, Today at work I am picking at food I don’t even want. What is wrong with me? Why am I self sabatoging? Can anyone kick me in the pants?

Ugh i do not want to double today. Waiting on people for  10 hours straight, on my feet.  Lets hope I get some big tippers today. Not people that use hand gestures to show me what they need. Not people that point to their half full glass and say something like “I’ll just have a half” Actually you have a half- if you want another half you will have a full and if you want half of a half you will have a 3/4.  How about you finish your drink and I will bring you another one then?  (But I am not bitter)

Things with the house are still going no where. Someone was supposed to come look at the house last night but they didn’t sign the log in book. Now this was a last minute decision on their part.  on Weds night they made the appt. so I spent all day yesterday cleaning.   I will be so mad if they didn’t even bother to call and cancel.  Maybe they came. Maybe they loved it. I hope someone does soon.

Also I have started going through the newspaper and slowly looking for a new job. I need to do something else.   10 years in the food industry has been enough.  (If you couldn’t tell from that diatribe above)

Saw the nutritonalist Tuesday and we talked about eating meals at ratioanl times.  Because when i wait too long I go nuts and eat too much or make wrong choices. I did that yesterday. The rest of the day was steller but dinner was Kings. With a shared dessert.  Today is a new day. Speaking of that I better go pack my lunch and get some snacks ready for my long day.

Have an awesome Friday everyone.

I ahve a nice new star. It says 25. Woot! I am feeling good. I usually “cheat” today, but so  far I stuck to my Total and a banana. I am going to a shower tomorrow that I know I am going to not do well at so I think I better do good today.  I  managed to squeeze in 5 work outs this week even with my crazy schedule, plus i still might walk today.  I work tnight. dreading it. yesterday was 14 1/2 hours. But I have an awesome weeklined up.

My internet time xpired. thePink Monsters missed me this week and are calling.

Down with the pounds,

Nicole

Today is the worst dayof the week this He** week, my day will be no less than 14 hours of work. Then I work tomorrow night. But I am down to 2 more days then off Sunday.  I want you to know that I did the WATP 1 mile jog before work. I promise to catch up with you ladies  when things slow down.

 Down with the pounds, and my hours at work this week,

Nicole

I weighed in 4 pounds heavier then last week. Back in the 230s back in the old cycle of lose, lose, gain. Never can get myself too far ahead right? But then when I went to the bathroom it seems as if Aunt Flo’s arrivlal is imminent and maybe some of this gain is water based. We shall see next week. Will I see the 220s again or be stuck in the 230s another week? Tune in next week to find out these thrilling answers.
