1. Yes I'm still working 2 jobs. 1 day off per week between the 2 and that's GranPunkin Day*Bunny* said:
2. Daughter moved back home w/dad & is getting ready to start a different college.
3. I have no idea when Mike will get to move here.
4. If I get a decent tax refund I'm buying an elliptical from Walmart for $235
5. Posting my ramblings on EF helps.
That's pretty much the jist of things. Glad you stopped by to ask

I took the weekend off of job 2 for my daughter's birthday. I've spent the entire weekend with my daughter and the GranPunkin She's some seriously rotten and gives her mom constant grief. (LOL neener neener)
I have to get back on the diet wagon because I made her a spiral cut ham, homemade macaroni and cheese and green beans. She baked a cake herself because she was afraid I was going to make it with tofu or something "gross."

Yep, I'm still around. I've been working a lot.
The good people keep quitting at job 2. That leaves the slackers to work with and if I'm going to do both jobs I want both pay checks. I've been there 6 months and enough people have quit that I'm one of the few left that's licensed to operate the lifts on that shift. It's rather funny sometimes when peole come back in the warehouse and ask me "where are the guys that operate the lifts?" and I politely respond "That would be me, what can I do for you today?" .....as I flip my ponytail or check my nails.
On a happier note: I'm hoping that Mike will get to move here at the end of March or early April. (crossing fingers and toes)
On an even happier note: I get to see the GranPunkin
a bit more since mommy moved back home.

OMG!!! I can totally relate to that. I used to work in a warehouse and had the same thing happen to me ALL the time. It was a small place for a small local company. Only a handful of employees. I had this one truck driver come in and say he needed to get loaded, then looked at me and said "get me some coffee honey." I made sure to leave the coffee in the back of his trailor right next to some boxes of clothing he was hauling...

I've only had 1 person tell me to get him 'a cup of coffee' and that was a longgggggg time ago. I brought him a cup of coffee grounds and a spoon. Then I politely stated that he didn't specify 'previously brewed' coffee.
HIS boss thought it was funny.
I can vouch for the fact that many of the employment horror stories are true. Very sad.jenscats5 said:
I understand Jens - they sell what I need at a price I can afford. For the things they don't carry that I need - I just go elsewhere.

SCHEDULE:
My schedule's been adjusted so I have weekends off but work my 4 days at job2 during the week. Having had the last two weekends off I can tell the difference in my leg. I don't wake up with it locked in place and hurting.
DIET:
Diet has been so-so. I've been making good choices but exceeding my calorie range. I went grocery shopping today and I'll start or re-start a focused diet tomorrow morning. Focused meaning eating the correct foods and staying within my caloric range while concentrating on drinking water water water water water.
SELF:
I splurged on myself today and so far no guilt. LOL
I purchased 1 Mystic tan (spray tan) session and 10 additional tanning sessions. I was freshly showered, fully exfoliated and clean shaven prior to my visit.
Keep in mind that I'm very fair skinned w/red hair and freckles.
I did a tanning bed session of 6 min to open the pores etc. etc. and then the spray tan application. That was an interesting process. I want to go back to the tanning bed and take a nap - - it was soooooooo warm and toasty.
She stressed the fact that I have to shower later. Quote: "If you fail to shower later you'll wake up looking like a Mexican." (Sorry if that offends anyone but that's what she said.)
I can tell which parts I didn't wipe off well enough after the spray application. Live and learn! I'm sure I'll get it evened out.
I am so very tired of not having any color, no warm glow. I've tried some of the self-tanning lotions and I never get it right so I decided to splurg on some tanning sessions.
I have no desire to be dark I just want to De-Casperfy myself a bit before Mike moves here in April.

I know what you mean about color! I live on the east coast and summer lasts maybe 2.5 months if we are lucky! Tanning beds don't really do anything for me. I have light skin with blonde hair. I hate it when my scalp burns which is usually does, even in a tanning bed! I can tan 30 minutes and maybe turn a third of a shade darker...it stinks being "white" all the time!

I decided to splurge on the spray tan and now I need to even it out with the remainder of the tanning sessions that I purchased.msam76 said:
I went back today for another tanning session, trying to get everything evened out. I have a white patch here, then I have a little darker patch there, etc. etc. all the woes of an inexperienced tanner.
Oh well- I'm worth the effort.
I lotioned up before I left the house to ensure that the lotion had enough time to "sink in", I put on the lip balm, made sure my hair was up and went into the stand-up tanning booth for 5 min.
For most people 5 min wouldn't make much of a difference but for my pastey azz I'm sure I'll be red for days!!
I'll shower before bed and lotion up in order to keep my skin moisturized.
DIET:
I haven't cheated on diet since Monday but aunt flo arrived with a suitcase of cravings so today has been a struggle.
I've been hungry all day - can't get enough to eat. Drinking water wasn't helping so I bought a bag of lettuce, plopped on some FF Ranch and stuffed myself. I don't want to see ANY food for a few hours.I am out of NPB so it's blueberry soy yogurt before bed. That will max out my calories for the day.
I also made the mistake of eating cottage cheese yesterday - BIG MISTAKE. I don't eat dairy and suffice to say it wasn't pretty.
It's my only nite off
It's 7:30pm and I'm already sleepy.
I miss my gymtime.
I'm rambling again ......

Hmmm. I need to use that head of lettuce trick when I get cravings. 
Way to get through the week (especially with Aunt Flo around) without cheating.

It's Saturday and I finally rolled my fatass out of bed. I have plenty to do today and I don't know if I'll get to see Da Punkin this weekend because my daughter hates me again. (I told her the truth instead of telling her what she wanted to hear.)
I'd rather be in Louisville, KY shaking my pom poms at the competition. Even if I didn't know anyone on the stage I would like to have been able to attend. Maybe next year.
I'm trying to catch up on the logs while I drink my coffee and muster up anything that remotely resembles energy.

It's Sunday, I woke up late and now I can't get enough to eat or drink. Part of that is due to the sunburn I have from picking the wrong amount of time for the tanning bed yesterday. (Dumbass)
Solution:
1/2 bag frozen veggies (nuked) mixed with 3 eggs to make a monster omelet
2 pc toast w/FF Promise
Coffee
Water and Crystal Lite are next on the list.
My cheat meal was last nite and it was a chitload of FF pretzels.
I'll be focusing on liquids today as I need to re-hydrate.

Saturday:
Da GranPunkin is napping. She's worn out after that long walk to the end of the block and playing in the front yard. She decided to run most of the way to and from. It was soooooooo cute - she had a pink onesy and her little jeans on with her chuck taylors.
After her nap she needs some lunch and then it's off to farm store so she can see the little chicks they are selling. (If they still have them.)

We went to the park and she doesn't like to swing very much but she likes the slide. We walked and walked and when we got home she ate, took a bath and wanted to play outside some more. When I had to take her home she was still at full steam. She's only had a 1 hour nap so when she goes to sleep she should be out for the entire night.
Grammy wore her out.
Thanks for stoppin by to check on me *Bunny*
