I Know, I Know...
...I have been a posting nob for sometime now. Things have been busy and boring around me so I took a little break. So I'm going to write about a few things that have happened recently.
Work:
The new production manager is gone. He and the boss were unable to stop butting heads enough to make it work. I can not say good riddance enough. Getting a paycheck on March 30Th was a bit of a problem...it didn't touch my hand till April 6Th and then I was afraid to cash it. The Boss told me to not spend any extra money, since I may need it. So it means as much as I love my job, I need to start looking for a new one. The boss told me not to worry cause if he goes he will make sure to take me with him, with better pay. I will not hold my breath on it but I will keep it as a option.
Family:
Lil Sis and all of her family (fiancee, 3year old J and 3 week old baby J) came down for a visit the weekend of March 30th. It was nice to see them all, but very tiring having them all stay at my house! We went to the art museum and navy pier on saturday and then that was enough togetherness for me. We arrived at the Pier for lunch and then the Fiancee spilled a whole freshly brewed cup of Starbucks coffee in my lap while I was holding 3wk old baby J. It was very hot and hurt, and then I had to spend the rest of the day looking like a idiot with one pant leg completely soaked in coffee.
This weekend I have to go north for the dreaded b-day party. Mom is coming home to see baby J and thought it would be so nice to combine it with my b-day. I am dreading this weekend cause I didn't want to celebrate this year at all, but I can't get out of it. I'm going to go up saturday morning and come back on sunday afternoon most likely.
Relationships:
I have given up. LOL very dramatic of me to say 4 days before my 30th b-day, but it is true. Right now I just feel old and unable to be cool, so I'm going to let it go. So I'm going to stop looking for it and if it finds me then ok, but if not I know I can be happy by myself.
In other news:
I went today and got my IL driver's license. I had to since my WI one was set to expire on Saturday. I aced the vision test, and didn't miss a question on the written test! The only thing was they made me take off my glasses for the picture...and now I don't think it really looks like me. I did answer truthfully at the weight section, even though I really wanted to keep my college weight. So as of today I am a official IL resident. I am even a organ donor.
The weight thing.... not so sweet. I stepped on the scale today, just about 13 weeks from The bestfriend's wedding and almost cried. I have about 10 weeks to get myself under control here to fit into that dress. So I sat down and mapped out the plan. I just have to get my ass in gear and do it. I gave myself a start date of sunday, though I will try and not overeat this weekend so I don't make it worse between now and then.
I started the spring planting a few weeks ago and now have little cherry tommato plants coming up like crazy. I need to go buy another plant light to take them a little farther, but I'm just going to stick with the one I have for now. My basil that I have been babying since last year is finally starting to look better after I transplanted it into better soil. The chives are another matter though. I haven't repotted them yet and they are not looking so good.
