(no subject)
So hey - I was going to post more in the new year. I have been meaning to post but not gotten around to it so here I am.
2018 is going great for Donald Trump so far, eh? *sarcasm* He is using his great words to great effect, right? He says the best things. I mean really He insults all of Africa and Haiti in one really horrible sentence and we are supposed to be ok with that? Let me just say here that he does not represent me or my views. I did not vote for him. I do not agree with him and his inherent racism. And I think it is worth noting that he did not win the popular vote. The majority of Americans voted against this troll. We do not like him either. We wanted Hilary Clinton. So BOOM. There it is. We are stuck with this fool until he can be impeached. The Dems need to win the midterms and get this creep out of office. That has got to be the plan. There are a lot of House seats up and enough Senate seats to do the job. So my hope is that the Dems will do this and if Trump keeps this up- he will be helping the Dems win the midterms. So keep it up Donny-boy. Keep it up. /end political rant.
I have great news on the job front here - I saw this job on the Uni website and it was perfect for me - a great job, director level, excellent pay but it was closed to applications since December. So I debated applying for it and thought - what the hell. They can ignore my app if they don't want to see it. So I zapped my resume and cover letter in there to see what would happen. And guess what - they wrote me back and I know the person hiring. She said that she is glad that I applied and wants to interview me next Friday! Psych! So I guess closed does not really mean closed. I will remember this for future things. So I am super excited. The job is for a Director of Special Events at a college and I feel like this could be the one. THE ONE! It is all very copacetic here. I helped them with a hiring committee a few years ago and remembered thinking that they would be great to work with so here is my chance. Awesome!
(please don't mention this on FB. I count on your discretion)
On the WW front - I am so close to goal that I can taste it. I am .8 away. So very close. I am hoping to hit that this week. Woot! Once I hit goal - I have to maintain for 6 weeks and then I am lifetime - I get to go for free forever. And I intend to maintain my weightloss forever. I did not do all this work to gain it back. I have been reading about what it takes to maintain weight loss and you have to keep on top of it. I think this will be a constant thing for me and I will always have to watch it. I don't mind that as I enjoy tracking food and all that. My plan is to go a bit below goal so I have a few buffer pounds between me and goal. So that should work.
So all good news. Sorry about the political rant - it was in my mind and came out of my fingertips. Oh and Slashy Valentine - not started. Oops.
Hope all is well with you in your part of the world. I love comments!
