BOO!

Doubt that I scared ya. Nonetheless, I am back, at least for a few minutes! My one reader told me I needed to update, so here you go -- lo siento, senorita! I have been extremely busy.

I have always been of the mind that work is just an 8-5, pay-the-bills kind of thing. Not something to take home with me. But in the last month or two, I have really been living and breathing my job. I think the difference is that I really love my job, where in the past it really was just something to help me pay the bills.

In the last month, we had two big fundraisers (a fancy schmancy dinner and a bike tour that almost killed me) and I have had 4 or 5 big programs. Not to mention all the other stuff I do that takes up all my time. And then there's church, and ARF (go vote for them on this site pretty please), and xBF who is doing really awesome right now and therefore I want to spend a lot of time with him, and my friends, and my niece who knows my name now and is my favorite person on earth!

Seriously, I don't want kids of my own right now, but I would keep my niece for quite some time if necessary. She is the best kid. She knows who I am now and is talking so much more. I get to see her this weekend and I cannot wait! She always asks where Sally is, so she associates me with my dog. Which is either a good or a bad thing.

I am dieting now, as best as I can without succumbing to the Weight Watchers meetings. I've been doing okay with the diet, but I need to exercise more. Since I've been so busy and the weather and sunlight has changed, Sally and I have not been getting up to run in the mornings. I need to reevaluate my schedule and figure out when I can fit in physical activity along with everydamnthing else. I wouldn't care as much if I am a few pounds overweight if I could still fit into my pants. But the fact is, I can't. The sad thing is, I've only put on a little over 10 pounds. But those 10 pounds are all hanging out around my mid-section, laughing at me as I try to squeeze into last winter's dress pants.

My friend R. is working on this 101 goals in 1001 days thing. I am planning to do the same, but I haven't finished the list yet. I'm such a slacker! Next post I will have it done, I promise.

I leave you with this video (prepare to laugh your ass off)
