Alive and kicking
quickies for a Friday
*Xandman has gotten his first two teeth (not all the way through the gums but the majority of each of them is through) He has his real baby hair coming in, his eyes are still blue, and his hair still seems awfully red/light sandy brown/blonde which has me fleclempt.
*We got a new cat. Someone I work with (who should NEVER EVER NEVER have pets) wanted to get rid of him. As the shelters are overly flowing with household pets Jamers and I decided to take him in. He came with the name "Well his name is Smokey, but usually we call him fatcat, or tubby, or tummycat" We have renamed him Kyiv like the Russian city, but old school spelling. He is big and beautiful weighing in at 19lbs 14ozs when we took him to the vet Monday. They had not taken him to the vet since they got him, had been feeding him Whiskas, and to get him out from behind the couch so we could take him they shot him with a plastic gun/darts. Needless to say he was more than happy to go into the crate to leave their house. Since bringing him home, he has turned out to be quite the lovekitty and is totally well behaved. The only downside is he is long hair and I find myself brushing him morning and night. He is on weight management food and seems to just be enjoying our home and family.
*My work is moving our office in three weeks. There is a huge mess around our current office with everyone purging and recycling. It is excitement around the office at an unparalleled level since I've been there. The bad thing is most of us are moving into Workpods, not even cubes. The walls are like 5' high so everyone can see in and they are ubber small. Bascially think jailcell. I'm not even going to bring up the fact that the amount of noise is going to go through the roof with almost all 50+ of us out in one big room. I'm not looking forward to this at all.
*My job is slow right now. I emailed my PMs, my supervisor and other PAs in the office to see if anybody needed help. Unfortunately everyone is sorta in the same boat. It is nice though as I'm on top of everything on my desk and I'm actually getting around to saving emails in the appropriate job files on the network.
*I'm worried I may be out of a job within the next couple of months if work doesn't pick up.
*I'm going to an Acupuncturist tomorrow for the second time in my life and the first since moving up here. I'm hoping it goes well and I look forward to going on a regular basis. Since the birth my back/neck/shoulders have been in almost constant pain. Coupled with the fact that my tailbone has not fully recovered over the last 6 months and I'm pretty unhappy physically.
*I have dropped back down below pregancy weight now. Now I just have that last pesky 60lbs to drop to get back to my happier smaller days. Don't worry I never get real skinny even at 60lbs less I only ever dropped down to a size 10. That was with working out constantly. I'm just a big gal even when I'm ubber fit.
That is all for now. My 10 minutes of free time on the computer are long gone.
