I feel like I haven't posted here in ages...
The last two days (Thursday and Friday) at work were dedicated to
training a company on their five new copiers. I had full training
day set up, with appointments every 45 minutes, starting at 11 and
going til 4:30 on Thursday, then 9-4 on Friday. I was a little
overwhelmed going in, because my contact there told me that there were
180 employees and most of them would want training. Typically
when I go into an office, there's a huge difference in the amount of
people who want training and who actually go, but he assured me that
there would be a huge crowd and a TON of questions.
No one showed up.
Well, I shouldn't say that... a few people did, and I actually had a
great turnout at my last training on Friday... it was six people, which
was great. However, I had about 4 sessions yesterday where no one
showed up.
I ended up finishing my book, Three Junes. I really enjoyed
reading it, but the ending just didn't satisfy me... didn't feel much
closure. Oh well.
Last night I got together with my friend Richelle D-M (I have 2 friends
Richelle that I will probably end up referring to in here.) We
went to Ruby Tuesday's and then did some shopping. I ate
horribly, and got on the scale this morning to see that I have actually
gained half a pound from last week. I don't know why my
motivation is just nonexistant, but I'm trying to work on it.
Anyway, at the mall I bought some pajamas to bring to Canada, and I
bought a bunch of stuff (hair and nail stuff) at Trade Secret.
Danny was a little upset when I came home with all these bags (I also
bought stuff for my cousin's baby) but now he says he was just "busting
my balls." Gotta love that expression.
So back to my weight-- ugh, I feel crappy about it. I still feel
huge in everything I wear, and I'm going to Canada Thursday morning and
probably won't eat well all weekend. I'm planning on skipping my
WW meeting this morning (I know, awful) because I have gained all the
weight (six pounds) that I lost, all since my birthday, which was June
25th. I am one of those people who has huge weight fluctuations,
so that's not unusual for me, but still, from my last weigh in I have
gained six and that will be horrible. Last week I went to a
meeting but used my free weigh-in pass. I'm going to just try my
best to stick to program for the next two weeks, then go and weigh in
(I won't have an opportunity next week b/c of Canada.)
I can't beleive I'm awake this early on a Saturday morning. My
parents are coming home from the Cape today, and they called at 6:30
because someone was calling their room and they thought it was
me. No apology for calling so early, my dad acted like it's
normal to call someone at that time on a weekend.
My new PDA is working fine, but it's taking some getting used to.
I still haven't received my new case, so I'm using my old one which
stinks b/c I don't have the velcro attachment so I have to be really
careful when I open it. When I installed all the software onto my
PC it installed all this garbage so now I'm having all these issues
with my computer. I think it installed some parts of ServicePack
2 which irritates me, b/c if you go into my System Info, it still reads
SP1 and I don't know if there's a way I can delete all these
files. Now suddenly I have all these SP2 Hotfix things on
there... ugh.... I'll have to read up on that.
Tonight I'm getting together with a bunch of girls from a local Boston
wedding board. We all used to be on the Knot, but we left there
due to some drama on the local board. It's a BBQ and there should
be like 20 or 30 of us. I'm making pasta salad. I was
agonizing about what to make, and was going to go with a dessert, but
this is easy to make and easy to transport. I wanted to go and
see Trish (my cousin, we're very close) and her kids today (my
sweeties) for a little bit b/c I haven't seen them since my
birthday. I'm getting withdrawals...
