GlassAngel at Home

You may ask now why is she posting at 1am..... Because I just let the last police man/woman out of my house after it was almost broken into! I spent what felt like forever waiting for them to get here while my door was being battered and now I can't go back to sleep! See the 2 units below me are being renovated so they took everything out...even the door locks. So that means that he had access to get into the hallway that is my entrance!Now I will have to call the landlord and have them replace the door nob on my upstairs door since it was broken with all of the kicking. Thank God the deadbolt didn't break or I would have had a very high man in my apartment. I can't seem to calm down now...every little sound is making me jump.

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect;
it just means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections...

I saw this somewhere today and had to say that it is a great thought, so I put it here so I can remember it. I know I have been a bit lax in the last couple of weeks about the bloggin, but I will be back in a few days (After I kick the nasty cold I got while staying with lS, tN and tBF over the weekend). Look forward to the posts that are in the works about my New Year's resolutions for my life, including then new "what I want in a man" list.

Ok so I bit the bullet and went back to
and figured out what damage had been done to my weight loss plan during my almost 3 month hiatus. And all I can say is lord love a duck, I messed that up! (ohhhh wow that rhymed!) No really I didn't gain back any weight, but I did gain back almost 4 inches! So think about this...no extra pounds + extra inches = lost muscle! So some of the hard work I put in over the summer is gone, but at least I don't have to fight to lose the pounds again. BUT it is back to the plan for both eating and exercising so I can shed a few more pounds before I have to put on the bridesmaid dress for it's alterations fitting some time in may/june. I'm not going to do as I would have in the past and beat myself up over this...I'm going to treat it like a learning experience and move on. I tracked my food and did my cardio today, so I feel like I am getting started on the right foot.

I know this will seem odd...but I just talked to my best friend for the first time in a almost a year. We have this awesome relationship where we can not talk to each other in a while and still the next time we talk to each other it seems like we just saw each other yesterday. I love L like my sister and we have gone thru both good and bad things together. Last xmas I got a call that she was engaged and would I like to stand up for her. I was so happy for her and of course said yes. Well we both soon after moved; phone numbers, new addresses and email addresses were changed or lost in the process and we lost contact with each other. I had been trying to find her for the last couple of months, and sounds like she has been trying to do the same. Yesterday I get a call from my aunt, that she had run into her; my aunt was given a new cell phone number to give me. So I called and left her a message, and got a return call this morning. We chatted for a while, and exchanged e-mail addies again so we don't lose each other again.

Our chat finally turned to the wedding, the date of which has been pushed back, and of which I am still part of. So during my xmas trip back to WI I will be going in for a dress sizing so they can order my dress.
This is the dress I will be trying to squease my way into come july....
I think she did a nice job on the color, and the dress style will be look ok on me, I think. But *sigh* I will have to get back on the "Healthy Lifestyle Plan" as quickly as possable for me to feel comfy in that dress come july. Her dress has the same burnt orange color on it as the bridesmaids...

I think her dress is awesome and can't wait to see her in it. I will be driving up a little more often to help her out with some of the wedding stuff in the next couple of months.

Work boredom has set in. The big project is almost done and no longer is taking up every second of the work day. I can't say how happy I am to have it out of my life. I have one new project that I am waiting for a meeting tomorrow with the client to even be able to start it. So here I sit for the second day with nothing to do and it is driving me crazy! There is nothing I hate worse than sitting at work and being bored. Work is to be done, not to sit around trying to find something to do.

In other news....

The hot water is back. I got home from work yesterday to find that it was back on as promised. So I filled the tub with the hottest watter I could stand and climbed in with a book for a hour. It was so nice, as was the long shower I took this morning before work. I have never been so happy to have hot water in my life.

This weekend I have a plan...to get all xmas shopping done. I don't know if it will work, but that is the plan. I have a few things for some people, and I have tN's big present, but I still need a few little things for him. I have no clue what to get my mom or grandma and I have two extra soon-to-be cousins that I need to pick up something small for this year.

Last week I realized how cool it was that I can start posts in Google documents and post them from there when I was done, so i will be posting more cause now it is easier to start a post at work when I have a few seconds here and there!
