Gut Busted

Hello Delights! Why oh why did I feel it was necessary to eat so much today?!?! I mean... I really know what I can and cannot handle, but I just kept gnawing away. Ugh. I feel like a huge, buttery dinner roll. Mmm... I would eat one of those if I had one nearby. Anyhoo, I've been consistent with fitness but still haven't stepped up my game. Lazy? That would be me. And I know more than anything, I've gotta limit my daily caloric intake. I want to be down 5-7 lbs and/or a few inches by July 1st. Totally doable, right? I can't say for certain, but I do believe I've gained 5 lbs since moving here. Boo caca piss hiss.

 If any of you have some red strappy heels that I can borrow - size 8 - please send'em my way. My quest for them is beginning to get frustrating & not generating the best results.  Oh oh oh! So ya know how I was scheduled to be in FOUR weddings this year?!?! Well, one of them isn't going to happen. And another I just sorta mentally removed myself from. I was thrilled in thinking that I'd only be in two fun weddings, but somehow I'm back to being the hostess in the one I mentally erased myself from. Good thing is that I found a 35 dollar dress for that madness at Cato this morning. Canary freakin' yellow!!! Who DOES that to people? Ugh x 3. Sheesh. I cannot express enough how thrilled I am to be leaving town this upcoming week. My supervisor returns from her month-long vacation & she'll no doubt talk us all to near death. Between all her chattering and the chaos of Tiger being in town, I'm sure I would become an instant alcoholic. By the by, this past month has been my BEST month at work. Did I mention that already? I may have, but I just had to say it again. I was able to learn a ton & get a lot of work accomplished. Pretty proud of myself. Onward & upward!

Celebrations:
= Enjoying a filling & tasty breakfast for $4.57 in quaint Aiken, SC
= Being removed from at least one crazy wedding
= The Final Four!!!
= Finding a pair of brown sandals that should take me through a few summers
= Having nice legs

Objections for ... Soon:
= Tune up for SinnABurst
= Pack for DC
= Win a game of Words With Friends
= Twist my fro
= Jog a little farther
= Not overeat

Cheers to you Beauties!

This & That

Hello Delights! So...uh... Words With Friends is pretty addicting. How am I ever to get to bed by 9:30p every night if I'm trying to match up an O with a T and a Q for 33 points?!?!? I also haven't accomplished much on my Objectives list, but will at least get to my sister's Thank You card tonight. I did at least schedule a massage for next week. Also, I've been walking & attempted a jog this morning only to met by a big ole dog. I turned around & slow jogged toward home. Not before cutting through various yards and fences to avoid the neighborhood Cujo. Good news: I may be driving to DC next week. As long as my vacation days are approved, I'm hitting the road. I just can't be here during Master's week. People are too excited about Tiger Woods coming to town & I am not. Gotta scoot. I'm so so so excited to head to my favorite city in the United States and see some long time friends & family. And, yes, I will walk and/or jog while I'm there. But I can't guarantee that I won't eat badly, though. :-)

Celebrations:
=  Becoming more efficient at my job. I'm really starting to get my un-wobbly legs under me.
=  Not blowing up at the doctor @ the VA today. She was awful!
=  Stepping up my fitness a weeeee bit.
=  Having a wonderful chat and chuckle w/ an old buddy.

Objectives:
=  Write my thank you card
=  Jog in the morning & avoid Cujo
=  Get my leave/vacation days approved
=  Find a new doctor
=  Laugh like never before

Happy Birthday Magic! Cheers Ladies!

Cee Lo = Creepy Ho

Good Evening Delights! I need you all to jump on my Creepy Cee Lo bandwagon `cause Ms. Awesome aint buying it. The dude is creepy. Finito. Fitness routine is going well, but I still need to do more. And I'm still swirling my finances around my noggin. I'm gonna get serious about that just like I am about my spring body. Tomorrow morning, I will go jogging as I only walked today. Let's hope the wine doesn't take me out. Eek. Wish me luck. Ladies, I'm getting ADHD with Augusta. I keep thinking I want to move back to where my friends are. Save me baby Buddha. Oh, and I finally started playing Words with Friends and can see how this can be an addiction. If I'm not the largest mess in the south, then I don't know what is. Okay, really, I do know what is: The people. Folks are extra grande & extra slow in the south. I can't focus on that or else my time here will be awful & I'm just not in to having an awful time. Moving on past my wine chatter...

Celebrations:
= Being almost finished with my online trainings
=  Rocking the education briefing I gave this evening
=  Looking super cute in my new dress
=  Chuckling a lot
=  Completing morning fitness

Objectives:
=  Adding a little more intensity to the fitness routine
=  Try to spend a little less money each week
=  Make a decision on whether or not I'll stay in my current apt or choose another
=  Send my sister a Thank You note for being an awesome big sister
=  Get a massage

Cheers Delights!

Weighs Out

Howdy Delights! Hope the weekend is going well & yall are not lumberjacking out as much as I am. Not sure what possessed me to buy cookie dough the other day, but I did and it's gooooood! I did at least jog yesterday & today I walked to the movies. Now, does the walk out weigh the kids pack of popcorn, Skittles, and a small Sprite? Not sure. Don't care. However, I vow to step up my fitness game for the remainder of the spring and go in to summer a tad bit more fit. Not sure if I love jogging yet, but it doesn't bother me. Oh if only I could curb the crazy snacking, I'd be one foxy mama. Hmm... one area at a time. Even more wild than the snacking is my scattered thoughts about progressing my career. I want to learn and do everything right now, but know I need to be patient with myself. I can do HUGE things if I stick with this gig. Perhaps a director's position or something equally magnificent. I've just gotta create no major waves and wait for my supervisor to retire. Can I do that? Sure. Sure I can. Wish me luck & sanity. Also, I've gotta figure out how to go on dates. It's been too long. Maybe I should just buy a beau and call it a day. Help! Oh, I finally watched 'Red Tails' and it's a great story. Horrible editing and acting, but I got a great history lesson outta the whole thing. Uhm... I'm off to try not to eat any more cookie dough and stick with healthier, delicious options.

Celebrations:
= Walking to entertainment
= Cleaning my kitchen, bathroom, and sneakers  =)
= Getting the most beautiful thank you card from the couple who allowed me to be the Maid of Honor
= Seinfeld! Seriously, this show cracks me the hell up!
= Receiving a wonderful package of homemade goodness for my fro and body

Objectives for the Week:
=  Vacuum Sinn (yea, I know... I've said that all week!)
=  Get the brows threaded
=  Enjoy breakfast at a new spot
=  Limit the cookie dough intake
=  Stop obsessing about buying a car
=  Chuckle a lot

Happy Saturday Mamacitas!

All Sorts Of Nuttiness

... but not really. Hello Delights! I'm not quite sure why my cousin has to tell little lies. You know, if there is such a thing. I consider them little because she just sorta steals your words and makes them part of her story and/or situation. Here's an example from tonight. We were discussing the autopsy report on Whitney Houston.

Me:  I like how folks are surprised that drugs were found in her system. Do they think she just took a bath sober, went to sleep, and wasn't able to jolt herself awake as she was slipping in the tub?!?!

Her:  I know! That's what I told the folks at work today. I said, "Do yall just think she was sober and fell asleep in the tub? You know she had something in her system."

Now, that all doesn't sound like a big deal, right? It wouldn't be if she didn't do that during EVERY conversation we have. I could say I did/said/want anything, and she'll work it in to her own [made up] situation. Quite bizarre. Plus, I know she didn't have that conversation about Whitney with her work folks today because she spent most of the day at the hospital checking on her boss' boyfriend. Anyhoo, I still consider these instances little lies and am not quite sure if they fall in to the One-Upping category. The little lies don't bother me, but I just don't understand why she does it. Bleh! I ate a tiny bag of Cheetos for dinner. Why is the Lumberjack still here?

Celebrations:
=  Grocery shopping
=  A nice stroll this morning that included me donating clothes
=  Not being allergic to pollen. It's EVERYWHERE out here.
=  Birthday & wedding gifts in the mail
=  Knocking out 3 online training's

Goals for Manana:
=  Jog
=  Vacuum Sinn (I really need to do this)
=  Review my finances
=  Turn off my alarms for the weekend
=  Smile

Undergarments

Hello Beautifuls! I've decided again that undergarments aren't great, and we need to get rid of them. Bras are so oppressive and just wrong for comfort. However, I hate to see sloppy titties and don't want to be a gal with saggy boobs, so I guess the oppressive gear must stay around. This morning I jogged and did some ab & arm work. Probably defeated that fitness goodness w/ the bbq pork sandwich and tots I had for lunch. Oh, and the 2  glasses of wine & red beans and rice I've had for dinner. I also had 2 little cookies at lunch. Aye yi yi. I suppose I'll ease back on my food intake tomorrow. And I'm not gonna wear panties. Yea. I said it. You're all the victims to my craziness. Thanks. You're welcome. I got an estimate to get my car painted today. A freakin' grand!!! Do I pay it so that Sinn can be pretty? Do I use that money as a down payment for another car? I was supposed to come home and work my finances, but I drank wine instead. <burp>

Celebrations:
%  Actually getting a couple of things done on my To Do list
%  Greeting the day with fitness
%  Making dinner

Objectives:
** Everything I've not accomplished!

Semi-Sane

Howdy Delights! The office is getting back to a somewhat sane state, although the Madness (a.k.a. Puerto Rican receptionist) is still trying to pull me in to her melodramatic play on everyone's emotions. She's kinda nuts and not in a tasty cashew sorta way. I didn't jog today as I wanted, but I accomplished some other great and tedious tasks. Tomorrow. Tomorrow will meet and greet me with fitness. Are any of the rest of you experiencing hormone changes as you age? Like your deodorant doesn't work like it used to? Or the texture of your hair is different? Skin more oily or dry? Hormones can be bastards on occasion! Not sure if I mentioned it yesterday, but I was able to give the found wallet back to its owner. He and his girlfriend were nice and I loved that he was wearing a pair of her Old Navy flip flops. And they were white! That's how I know they couldn't have been his. ** I freakin' LOVE(d) Heavy D! **  I need a massage. Put that on my list of things to do tomorrow.

Celebrations:
*  Catchin' up w/ a couple of wayward friends. (Not sure why I used wayward here)
*  Dusting, vacuuming, doing laundry
*  Surviving the Madness
*  Realizing that my panties weren't very comfy & tossing them in the trash mid-morning today  :-)
*  Making it to the post office

Tomorrow's (or the next day's) Objectives:
-  Tune up
-  Survive the Madness again
-  Somehow make time to vacuum SinnABurt
-  Fitness!!!

Goodnight Delights! Own the Week!

Patience

Thanks for the advice & encouraging words about my next choice in academia. I think I will wait for a bit and follow what ever shakes my spirit at the time. Plus, my upcoming travel schedule is gonna be too bonkers for me to concentrate on course work. With that said, TAPS, I am going to really look at planning some time to come to NYC to see my beau. I've decided every vacation or mini-trip I make from this point forward will be high quality. I don't wanna do anything else "just because." I chose not to jog this morning but to take a leisurely stroll. On my way home, I came across an empty wallet & what appeared to be its contents strewn all along my path. I called the fella's bank to cancel his credit card and I also left him a voice mail & email message. Initially, I walked right on by the empty wallet AND the bank card. But once I saw a couple other wallet-type items, I went back and picked up everything because I would want the same courtesy. Plus, this guy had his mini-diploma from college in his wallet. That made me think about how proud he must be of himself to have graduated college. I'm a big time education advocate & softy, so seeing that mini-diploma made me smile and come up w/ many scenarios about why he's carrying that diploma. Is he the first one in his family to go to/complete college? Did he overcome a ton of struggles to get there? Did someone at some point tell him he'd never make it? I'll be mailing the wallet & its contents to him tomorrow. And I certainly hope nothing terrible happened to this guy as his wallet is a long way from the address on his business card.

My walk was great and I have spent the remainder of the day doing the most nothing one could do. I've had conditioner and a plastic bag on my hair for about ... oh...7 hours. What a soft fro I'm gonna have this week. :-)

Celebrations:
=  Going back for the wallet
=  Doing some ab work
=  Community is back on tv
=  Breakfast for dinner
=  Soft hair

Goals for Tomorrow:
=  Schedule the tune-up & paint job
=  Jog
=  Donate clothes & shoes
=  Vacuum SinnABurst (she's a muddy mess)
=  Enjoy my soft tresses

Cheers Delights!

Catch'er Upper

Hello Gorgeous Gals! I did actually jog do some weight lifting today before heading to breakfast and later indulging in mid-day dessert. But I did walk the mall some to help combat the fat pile that was taking up residency on my belly. Ugghhh. I may jog again tomorrow or maybe just walk. Who knows?!?! I do know that I want Ms. Awesome to have a fantastic Shuffle tomorrow. Go `head with yo' bad self. Did you all know that I am a supreme catch'er upper? Truly I am. I can get on the phone and be here with folks for about... oh, let's say... FOUR hours! Yea. That's right. I'm doing that right now. I rock at this! But it's all fabulous really & worth the chuckles. New/old dilemma:  I need to find a real reason to go to school since it's paid for. Do I go the counseling route? Social work? Stick with the medical coding? AKDFN@$N#NRNRRK! I don't want to waste the money that's there for me. But... I do have until 2022 to use the benefit. Maybe I should stop rushing, right? :-) Thanks for listening.

Celebrations:
+  4 hour plus catch up conversation
+  Getting my goddaughter a book on space for her birthday
+  Getting out & jogging today
+  Eating an absolutely delicious biscuit for breakfast

Tomorrow's Objectives:
=  Fitness
=  Find a place to get a tune up
=  Not overdo it on junk food
=  Watch Luther

Enjoy the Shuffle, Jenna!

Cheers Delights!

Smarter

Howdy! The workshop in Atlanta proved to be a good one & I'm much smarter than when I arrived there. Success! I also came home w/ a new dress and work out pants and a cardigan. Boo caca hiss. I've got to find some more clothes to donate and a place at where to donate them. Why oh why do I crucify myself. Yes. I'm being Tori Amos dramatic. At least that's who I think squeals those lyrics. Where is Maurice? He should be here by now? Maybe next week?  Ms. Awesome, congrats for signing up for the shuffle & I hope the new gig is treating you right.

Celebrations:
=  Walking several miles yesterday
=  Actually getting valuable information outta this mini-conference
=  Seeing an old buddy of mine
=  2 scoops of Carvel ice cream!!!

Tomorrow's Objectives:
=  Some sort of fitness
=  Get a clean bill of health from my Well Woman's visit
=  Schedule a tune up & car painting. SinnABurst is gonna be fancy for her last 50k!
=  Not eat a bunch of crapola
=  Turn off my alarm & enjoy FRIDAY!

Cheers Delights!

Being All I Can Be

Good Evening Beauties! This morning by 7:00, I had ran just over a mile and a half, worked my abs & arms, fixed my lunch, and completed 2 loads of laundry. Talk about doing the most! It was a set up for a perfect and peaceful day. True... If I lived in the land of Make Believe. I was so proud of my a.m. accomplishments that I was certain nothing/nobody could mess up the day. Enter the Amazing Crazy Puerto Rican Receptionist. She and the lead counselor had it out today. Completely. All.Out.War. As I bear witness to all the madness, I was just trying to reflect on all the pre-7 wonder. I was snapped out of my bliss by having to make her breathe in to a paper sack as she began to hyperventilate! Yep. This was my morning. Full blown bonkers by 9:30 a.m.  Trying to explain there's no job worth getting this sick about over and over and over  and... you understand... to a person who absolutely REFUSES to take ownership of her situation can make a sane person commit-able.

Celebrations:

- - Everything that happened prior to 7 a.m.

- - Finally completing a taxing online training

- - Somehow managing to pack for my overnight excursion to Atlanta although I've had too much wine

- - Freakin Seinfeld!!!

- - Getting the angry lady to laugh & smile ... eventually

Manana's Objectives

- - Mail out the cards and letters I didn't get to today

- - Not get riled by Atlanta traffic

- - Enjoy dinner w/ a former Greyhound

- - Drink a ton of water

- - Smile & be cute

Tablet Follies!

Hello Bad MammaJammas! In learning the intricacies of my tablet, I just realized that I deleted a bunch of the photos that have been in my blogs. Technological advances are trying to get the best of me, but I'm determined to Win Win Win No Matter What! (Magic, feel free to shake your rump)  Overall, I'm enjoying the gosh darn thing thus far. So, I got my fro whacked yesterday & came home to twist it. Today, it managed to look cute. We'll see what the next few months bring as it re-sprouts from its roots. I want a really, really good cheeseburger and a steak and a delightful dessert & I've also been craving a soda. Can we say that Maurice & his Lumberjack friend are due to visit in a week?!!?!  I freakin' love Seinfeld! Don't love misbehaving kiddos, though. I'm reading this article & realizing that I so totally live as a single lady.
http://galtime.com/article/home/48258/24392/design-your-bedroom-attract-love-you-desire#axzz1owIPellZ

Productivity Points!

Good Morning Delights! Today I've managed to jog nearly 2 miles, do 2 loads of laundry, cleaned my entire apartment, and am now on a 2+ hour catch-up conversation with an old Army buddy of mine. Much better than how yesterday played out where I ate a bunch of crap, got a pedicure, and sat on my couch watching a movie/playing with my new tablet. Oooohhh! I love the smell of bleach & Comet & shaken rugs. The feat of the day will be to pick out my crazy lil fro. Wish me painless luck.

Good Day Delights!

Topsy & Tipsy

Hello Favorite FTC'ers! I'm tipsy, so this blog could very well not make sense. I decided to take the Madness aka our loud receptionist to happy hour. Figured it'd be a better environment for her to get all of her pressing issues aired. She appreciated the ear and the time. Success. What's not successful = me having done no fitness today. Ehhh... Tomorrow. I swear I'll do something tomorrow. I lost my freakin quesadilla some place. ANDNFFKFLKWRKERKER!  I'm off to search for it in my car & stumble back in, drink water, and go to bed.

Here's to a happy weekend!

Might Becoming Healthy Be The Death of Me?

*** CONGRATS MS. AWESOME! ***

Good Evening Delights! Due to my semi-not-so-much competitive nature, I went jogging this morning. It wasn't taxing & was at a slightly quicker pace than my last jog on Sunday. I'll consider doing this again tomorrow or at least walk the track at lunch. The loud receptionist continued to un-pack her marital issue/baggage today at work. WHY? OH WHHHHYYYY? (I'm saying that in my CeeLo voice) That may be reason 8,463 that I'm single. Of course reasons 0 to 8, 462 are that men are afraid to marry me.
 :-)  Anyhoo, I won't let that little fact deter me from beau-hunting this year.  TAPS, how goes it being scale-less. That sounds sorta amphibian'ish, right? Hope your food managing is going well.

Today's Celebrations:
=  Learning more about the man who is training me. He cracks me up & has such a rich life history.
=  Jogging, working abs & arms
=  Getting my free sample of Arm & Hammer Advance White in the mail. Love that toothpaste.
=  Not eating as much chocolate as yesterday
=  Grocery shopping & paying bills

Manana's Objectives:
=  Not over indulge in chocolate
=  Fitness
=  Be cute
=  Turn off my alarms & celebrate the weekend

Cheers!

Better Than Nada

Good Evening Delights! Today I walked the track during my lunch hour & I was happy to be out there. Feels like it's been eons since I've done any fitness. Tomorrow morning should meet me with nice weather, and I should be able to take a slow jog. Have I ever mentioned that there's far too much drama & noise in my office? Yes? Well, I just thought I'd say it again. I'm looking for a polite way to tell the receptionist that we really do not want to hear about her marital issues; that she should really pay attention to who she tells what as we're not the folks that can help and/or we don't really care that much. Callous? Maybe a little. But I really wish she'd go to counseling rather than spread her dysfunction with all of us. Finito. Ay yi yi I need a massage. And a hair cut. And a tablet lesson. And... so on and so on. :-)

Today's Celebrations:
= Walking during lunch
= Chuckling a whole lot @ work despite the noisy drama
= 2 loads of laundry
= Locating 4 natural hair salons right here in Augusta
= Grabbing the date that New Edition will be in my area.  Yall have no idea how much that thrills me!

Tomorrow's Objectives:
=  Jog a tad & stretch
=  Soak up knowledge at the counselor workshop
=  Network a little

Goodnight Delights!

Purely Gluttonous!

Delights! I truly over did it on chocolate consumption today. It was ridiculous, really. Just because there was a bowl of baby Twix's, Kit Kat's, & peanut butter cups doesn't mean I need to gobble 1/4 of the bowl. And I've not walked for 2 days because of ya know... my whole wimptastic way with the weather. Some day, I'll do better. That some day will be manana @ 5'ish a.m.

I've got nothing else. Clap for that. Go ahead. I won't be offended.

Good night!

Good Food - Bad Food

Hello Delights! I really want a bacon cheeseburger donned with BBQ sauce. And maybe some spicy waffle fries. Or perhaps a LotABurger  would do the trick. I can't wait to hit the streets of ABQ this summer. Of course, I'll most likely have a bacon cheeseburger w/ sauce before then but nothin' beats Blakes! Anyhoo, I didn't walk this morning because it was cold and windy. Living in Texas & now JorJuh has made me a wimp when it comes to the elements. I did some indoor fitness & went on about my day. Wish me a less windy morning as I gotta get out there for a short jog. Keeping up with you Joneses/Delights is hard work, but I vow to be a jogger for at least half of this year.

Ms. Awesome, I hope you get the gig at Olive Garden. Keep us posted. I want some breadsticks now!
GoGoGallant & Alisa, it's so great to see yall posting. Alisa, I'm so digging that you dig pilates. Maybe I should give it a whirl at some point this year. TAPS, did you get emotional when registering your Boo Bear for pre-school? How awesomely amazing!

Goals for manana:
+  Jog a little
+  Scout out the place where I'm training this week
+  Some other 53 things
+  Smile & chuckle a bit

Cheers!

Teleported

Howdy FTC'ers! Have you ever wished you could get beamed up like/by Scotty and be teleported to some place grand? I do. I kinda want to be at a spa for a few days. Just enjoying the bliss of lavender/vanilla/jasmine/eucalyptus etc. smells while someone works the knotty tension outta my back. But, since that cannot happen, I'll keep chugging along at my daily, weekly, monthly goals. Today's jog was pretty good & didn't leave me exhausted. Tomorrow I'll walk & do some ab work. I'll also try to figure out if I can realistically take a class or two this spring. Wish me luck. How can anyone justify selling (or buying) jeans that are $200?!?! Freakin' ridiculous! Anyhoo, I'm sleepy. Oh, I went to the office and got some work done. What a successful weekend. I also used no cream or sugar in my coffee today at breakfast. Owww! I'm on a wobble.

This week I hope to:  jog at least 2-3 times; attend the Toastmaster's meeting on Wednesday night; keep my spending to a minimum; get my GI Bill documents over to the college.

Cheers!

A Better Tomorrow

Howdy Delights! I'm not sure why I'm awake, but may as well knock out today's writing assignment. I did go on a very short, slow jog this morning. Tomorrow I'll do a little bit more. Wish me luck. I also got through 3 loads of laundry & half way caught up on my beau's show. I cleared through some paperwork and receipts & making space on what is labeled the "dining room table." Slow, steady progress. The reality is settling in about taking classes, travelling, and adjusting to my new gig. Yes, it IS possible for me to do all those things simultaneously, but I won't do one of them very well if that's the case. The billing and coding classes may have to wait for a spell. I really want to do well & be good at my gig so I can write my own ticket as to what I do next. I've gotta concentrate on being the best for a little while. ** Have I ever mentioned how much I freakin' love music?!?! It would blow chunks to lose my vision, but it'd suck a whole lot more if I weren't able to hear music. **  I didn't do any work from home today, but I'll definitely do some work tomorrow. Tomorrow holds such possibility and promise, that's why I put off so many things until then?!?!   :-)

Ms. Awesome, thanks for your great words on being a woman & the way politics tries to affect us negatively. You rock!

Goals for the week:
=  More jogging
=  Add movies to my tablet
=  Attend a Toastmaster's meeting
=  Get my fro straightened & cut.  YIKES!
=  Smile & give thanks

Enjoy the rest of the weekend, Delights!

Not a Dang Thang!

Hello & Happy Beginning to the Weekend! I did no fitness today & can't remember if I did any all week. Yikes! I've been sorta wore out from the travelling, the wedding, and trying to get actual work done at work. Not sure if I mentioned to you all that my supervisor is a really, really nice woman but a horrible & overly chatty boss. She'll tie up so much of your work time by talking about a whole heap of irrelevant stuff. Before ya know it, the day is over & nothing has been accomplished. It appears that I'll be going in to the office on the weekends for a while. Why oh why oh why must every day be so unproductive?!?! Anyhoo, on to Follow Through stuff:


     Part of me really likes the idea of being a jogger (it gives me a great booty), but I know I really don't like running. The search begins for a partner who'll be consistent, fun, and motivating. I want to jog 2-3 times per week this month. I can start tomorrow! 
     My 1st billing and coding class begins on the 7th. As of today, the VA hasn't certified my funds. Boo caca hiss. I may have to wait another month to begin. Let's hope the busy travel schedule doesn't interfere with becoming a learned lady. Did I mention that I've decided to make the trip to San Fran in 2 weeks? Yea. Bonkers. Should be a good & educational time, though. 
     Today was a whole lotta crazy at the office & I went to get a bottle of vino after work. The intent was to pop it open as soon as I got in the door. Because the wine was still warm, I'll be able to stick to my original goal of no wine from March 1 - 10. Freakin' warm wine saved me from myself.
     In addition to going for a short jog manana, I will also spend some time with my new toy. I've got to get a handle on this tablet business so that my upcoming flight isn't so horrible. I will also do some laundry, lounge on my couch, & maybe get some office work done right here at home. Oh, and I'm not big on putting sugar in my coffee unless I'm out at a restaurant (I use cinnamon & powdered creamer at home), so my focus is to drink black coffee for the next 7 days. I can do this... beginning tomorrow! 


Thank you for being supportive, BadMammaJammas. I could not be    without yall.


Cheers!

Weird Feeling on the Side

Hello Delights! TAPS, congrats to you for rockin' through 4 miles with ease. Ms. Awesome, I know you're still jogging for beer and I'm envious. Magic, you've given everyone the run bug. We'll all be shuffling quickly soon. Hooray!

I've got some weird feeling on the right side of my gut. It's not a pain, just a weird discomfort. Tea & chicken noodle soup for me. Followed up by some great sleep. Wish me regularity, Gals. Not in an eat too much fiber sorta way, but ya know... back to feeling normal.

Goals for Manana:
=  Fitness
=  Some sort of productivity at work
=  Chuckle & smile
