Corporate Restructure = Bloodbath of lost jobs

Yesterday my company experienced a 'corporate restructure'.
It was the longest day ever.
I was terrified each time the phone rang.
I cried for people.
I was anxious.
I survived.

Gross, but surprisingly useful.

When you have a cold, the doctor can't do jack for you.
Mine did tell me to take mucinex and to use this.
I am opposed to two things.
Putting things in my eyes.
Putting things up my nose.

There was no way on God's green earth I was going to use this nose thing. But, I was in dire need of being healthy for a very important visit tomorrow.
So, I did it.
Weird on top of weird, one of my employees told me about this thing last week when I was healthy. Her husband is a doctor and swears by it.
I did one of those dismissive, "yeah, sounds fascinating" and went about my day.
Little did I know, days later the neti pot would come screaming back to my life.

I am still sick, but at least I am not getting worse.

Pitiful

How many variations of "bed to couch" "couch to bed" "bed to chair" "chair to couch" movements can you do in one day?

I am about to find out how many you can do in two days.
Misery is following me.
Runny nose, runny eyes, aches and general bitchy discomfort.
Aggghhhh.

URI

Upper Respitory Infection ~ the common cold.
I went to the doctor and this is the diagnosis. When I go to the doctor - there is something major happening usually....not a COLD!

I was a bit hyper this morning over it.
I have a huge visit this week...and need to be at my best.
Now I have a cold.
I am going to force lots of fluids, sleep and hop up on Mucinex.

Gross.

The Obsession Continues

Project Ass Reduction - I have to rename this project. It didn't work for me.
When I was doing my best body reducing ~ it didn't have a name. I just did it.
So here we go again.
Off in pursuit of a better body......I really let myself go the last few months....I gave myself a good reality slap....and am back on track again.

Now, I have my Wii fit. A humbling experience.
It tells you how fat you are and your BMI. Ugh.
It tells you how bad your posture is.....It calls you a couch potato and a yoga master all on the same day.
One minute I have extreme skills the next I am a fat slug.
Awesome. How motivating.

The cold weather has been my arch enemy lately. That is where the wii fit has helped me be active, yet still toasty indoors.
The only real downside, is that with the major weightloss I had 2 years ago....I never weighed myself. I let the clothes be my guide as I dropped 8 sizes. That was all I cared about.
Now I force myself to look at the actual pounds.
It makes this tougher because I put more pressure on myself. But, it is a necessary evil. Once I reprogram my brain for the desire for daily excercise ~ I'll be good to go.

I have begun my chant again....'size 8, size 8, size 8' ~ we got a long way to go.....
