Ten Things Thursday

1.   Thursday is my new Friday (mentally) so Friday will just be an illusion.


2.   Earlier this week, I wore the trousers to my suit and a golf shirt (which I thought was too tight) - had a number of people tell me they could see the weight loss.  Wearing clothing that fits is different.


3.    I try and carpool to work as much as possible.  Makes for a longer day but I like saving $ and doing my little bit to help the environment.  I'm waiting for my carpool as I type (or as I speak).


4.    Again, I am beat.  Feel like a Mack Truck has run me over. 

5.    I brought my tiny laptop to work as I want to be able to read and blog on whatever kind of break I can find in my workday. Today's break was at 515pm.


6.    My new boss must have been a file clerk in her previous job.  In 9 days, we have had 6 full fledged conversations about the HR file room.  Which is funny because it is in the best shape it has ever been.  Today, we actually had a meeting about it.  She asked if filing had ever been a priority and I responded: no, our staff has gone from four to two and filing was never a priority. Getting the bare minimum done has been the priority.  Twinkie-Twit is the nicest word I can come up with for her.
  
7.    Started watching a new show last night: Revenge.  I liked it.


8.    I really miss Coco Fiona when I'm at work.


9.    I put my protein shake on top of my car and drove off.  Heard something but thought it was my seat belt.  A few miles later I reached for the shake.  Poof ! And, that had one of the 'good' lids on it too.


10.   Happy Birthday to my dear Band-Twin, JRD.  I just love her ... she is so positive, upbeat and is real at the same time.  We are Team 7~21 !

  4. Um that's weird I commented twice and only 1 showed up. Anyway-remind me why we went into HR? Oh I remember why I did-because I went to college for social work and realized I wouldn't make any money so I switched to HR and have no other skills! Sorry about your PITA boss.

  10. I have found when I actually suck it up and buy clothes that fit, I get a lot more compliments about my weight loss. Just wish I had more money to invest in my wardrobe. Ugh about the protein shake. I once left a smoothie on top of my car...it was a mess.
