So you can probably tell, but I have been getting annoyed with certain things lately. Not even just the usual things like parents not showing up for MFE meetings even though I have scheduled them three times and I JUST NEED A SIGNATURE for cryin out loud!!!
OR that the state just invented new forms and we have to implement them now, and basically it's not at all clear how to do that correctly.
Oh wait, I better not get carried away with the school topic.
So, a new annoyance would be my twice a week visits to the allergy doctor's office for shots. It has always been a pain b/c you have to wait 15-30 min to get in then after your shot you have to wait 20 more minutes to make sure you don't go into shock and die. So it's always hard to make time for it ( after MFE meetings and before making supper and wishing I were indstead going to Curves). Well anyway the other day I go up to the window to sign in and the lady said, " oh you didn't know? (Like it's my fault) you don't sign in at the window anymore, go to the computer instead. So now, I have friggin name and password to remember just to tell them I'm there. They told me this makes it easier since the computer sends the info directly to the nurses in the back. Easier!!! Okay I sound like an old fart, but I really think this is ridiculous. But I have to get shots, it's spring!
At least spring is good news!!
On a positive note, I'm going to Florida next month!!! I will travel with Asa while he attends a conference at Disney World. That will be great and I just got a new bathing suit that I can actually stand.
By the way, Asa is about to turn 30!!!! So send him a line mid-April.
Well it felt good to get those frustrations off my chest, hope it didn't get to annoying to read.
Thanks!
Wow, it is so beautiful! The weather this weekend has really brightened my spirits. Just a few weeks ago we had snow everywhere!! I spent some time and put a video together of Barkley's favorite things: the backyard, treats, his new laser pointer and bumble ball. He makes me laugh and I make high pitch noises ( I beleive the video features those too).
Well I put it off as long as possible. But today I decided to join Weight Watchers again. Oh how I HATE to worry about food! The worst part is that in order to keep the weight off, you really have to make a lifelong commitment to it. What could be worse than that? But by mentioning this plan on my blog, I figure that enough people will ask me how I'm doing to keep me pressured and on the right track.
I have made a lot of changes this year, VERY little pop, dessert is not the norm, cut way back on fast food, don't bring home junk and workout more than I ever have I don't even buy food with partially hydrogenated soybean oil. Yet, it dosen't seem to matter!?!?!?
I will admit though that I overate at Christmas time and that around 9:30 a.m. everyday I get sleepy and feel the need to stuff 3-6 Hershey kisses in my mouth ( they are always stocked in the teacher's lounge). They give me a real boost! Especially now that they put everything from mint to coffee to peanut butter in those things!
It's tough getting old and yucky!!! ?
