It's alive!
Quick update:
I'm alive!
But my work load has increased like crazy. Just sort of all dumped on me at the end of July and it still feels like my boss and I are swamped and barely treading water. Since my internet access is only through work, I've had very little time to even peek at LJ. I thought I would get more time back halfway through October. But it still hasn't happened yet.
Also towards the end of July, I had some health issues that were really scaring me. Mostly revolving around high blood pressure and extreme out of shape-ness. I'd been putting on weight slowly but steadily since around the time I started dating J--and that fiasco has been over for almost exactly 2 years now. So, I'm following the general guidelines of the glycemic load diet and have been exercising enough to even further cut into my too-limited time for internet-connectedness. (And have lost 33 pounds since August 1st, can do the heavy lifting I need to do at work without any problems and accomplish all of the tasks I face in a normal day without being horribly winded and worn out.)
Still need to work some on dealing well with all the added work stress, though.
Nooshie is still as cute as ever. My nephew is still adorable. I finally got electricity back after the storm \o/ and life is good... except it's the sort of good that still leaves a whole hell of a lot of room for improvement.
On a seasonal note, I've got my MTYG assignment and haven't the least amount of panic about it. Does that mean I'm missing out on an integral part of the experience?
I think it will be at least another month before I can get back to any sort of regular LJ reading/posting routine. I'm sorry. I miss you all.
