Here I am
After a long disappearance and lack of posting my entries, I finally am contributing entries to my blog once again. It helps that some have eagerly anticipated this huge event *wink* and that there should be much rejoicing on this rare occasion *wink wink.* Well, the past month I have been working and getting settled into my job. I am finally getting the hang of things and the equipment, and get this, can even figure out how to use some of it without asking someone! I'm a big girl now! Last Thursday was a fun one. I worked 11-5pm, then I worked at Pita Pit 7:30-4am. Then I went back to Carousel and worked 8am-5pm. This does not include transporting myself to and from these places which can take a while. I slept something like 12 hours straight after that. Almost completely undisturbed. It was wonderful and I hadn't had undisturbed sleep in months! I'm making friends at work and I can tell that most of them, if not all, are not Christians. One of the girls I work with is the sweetest girl but is an atheist. This will be a good witnessing opportunity for me. I have not said anything yet, but I'm sure there will be a time when something like that comes up. I just hope I am setting a good example and they see that I am a hard and honest worker. Please pray that I am able to properly witness to these people when that time comes.
Yesterday, after church, we went to WalMart and did one of those blood pressure tests and I worried myself because I knew that I had not been eating well the past few days. Yeah, my pressure and heart rate were terrible! Obviously it did not help that I was worrying about it, but it was such a huge shock on how unhealthy I was. I started running today and I already feel better about myself. I do need to start watching what I eat. I intake a lot of sodium each day. I need to cut my portions down and eat more veggies and fruits. I got a whole bunch of apples that should last me throughout the week, and I have some veggies that I will eat with all of my meals. I'm not young anymore, eating whatever I wanted and not having to worry about it. I wish I had been more careful when I was younger so I did not become so attached to so many unhealthy foods.
Shawna's birthday is tomorrow and I will be making her a red velvet cake. Never made one before but it looks reeeeeaaaaaaaaaallly good. There are three separate birthdays at work (at Carousel) so that means LOTS of cake. This was a great week for me to start being healthy, huh? Tomorrow there is some off-site meeting for the managers, which will take most of the day. Afterward, the General Manager will be buying everyone supper at a very nice restaurant and Shawna, Jen (Admin. Asst.) and I are all invited to join them. I'm not sure if we get to leave the office a little early or not, because it is in Skaneatles. I am really looking forward to that. I love me some good food!
Not much else has been going on. I hope Becca comes to visit this next week! Shall be wonderful times and I have been greatly anticipating it! I miss my Becca! *sniff sniff*
Well, I suppose I should get my food around for work and all that jazz. I'll try to attempt updating more often.
