I'm also making a wallet for my Mother-in-law! It's almost done, just having a little difficulty with the closure of the wallet because she wants a button closure, I'll take pictures of it when I'm finished!
Alright, so, last Friday was my weigh in and I weighed 289lbs!! Woot! What does that mean to me? Well, other then me losing weight being awesome, to help me along the way I have mini goals to fulfill, and once fulfilled, I'm allowing myself to gift myself for all my hard work.
What's my gift for going under my 290lb mini goal? A brand new purse! ... but, I got to thinking, I don't want a purse that is expensive and that everyone else has! I want something special... unique... well crafted... something handmade!! So I found this really awesome "market bag" that I'll be using as a purse... for only a little less than $63 with shipping...
But that got me to thinking... also... I would like a new wallet, coin purse, purse organizer, etc... things to put in my purse... so I went looking for those too... then I started thinking about finding tutorials for such things... then I started thinking about how I've always meant to take up sewing, started looking for a sewing machine.... and I think I'm going to start sewing as a new hobby! It will take a few weeks to gather the money to get what I need to start, but hey, it sounds like fun to me!!
So, um, well... it's been awhile hasn't it? I don't know where I have been. I must have lost myself in this game called life and not even realized how long it has been since I have updated my little corner of the web.
Although I'm not sure I can really say much, I'm not one for magnificent long words, beautiful poems, or good advice... I can't say I've been very busy either, since I've only been working, taking care of the wee one, and playing a video game with my Hubby.
My Son has been doing wonderful, though I wish I could say the same thing about myself. He can say lots of new words and phrases, I can't even list them all! His favorite word is still "button" but along with that, "ut oh" is his new favorite phrase. He says "thank you" and your welcome" as well, he's a very polite baby! My favorite has to be "ut oh" though, he says it with so much enthusiasm, and in the cutest voice ever!
Work has been fine, though, I wish everyone from fountain wasn't leaving fountain to become a server. Tonight I was asked to stop acting so much like Julia (our boss), I think I will take that as a compliment, though I don't think it was meant to be one at all. I wasn't being bossy, just observant and trying to be helpful.
Perhaps I come off as a bitch, but I don't mean to, that's far from my intentions, I just don't want to a). get in trouble because I didn't say something to her, them, whoever it may be doing something incorrect or wrong, and b). her, them or whoever not to get in trouble and to know the proper procedures (and maybe care what the proper procedures are?).
A few things I find myself continually reminding people of in fountain is a). not to leave drinks in, or eat in the fountain area (health code violation), b). to label food items with dates (day dots), c). use the green scooper instead of the red scooper, or vise versa, or d). to stock or rotate food or dry stock items.
As closer, I need to make sure they do their job, so that I can do mine and not stress myself doing what they forgot to do, or going behind other people and redoing things they did wrong. My job is to close, plain and simple (ok, maybe not so simple).
Though yesterday one girl got an attitude with me asking "well if I'm doing all this, what do you do?", I wanted to say "excuse me?".. but instead I said, "I do a lot of things..." than started listing some things and said, "oh forget it, I'm not just going to list all the stuff I have to do", because it was pointless to do so.
Off topic slightly, if I even really had a topic? I lost 4 more pounds the other week, gained 3 back, but I'm now on my period so I don't have a accurate current weight, so I hope to update my ticker soon with a accurate weight and date!
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
when he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worst, that
You Must Not Quit.
So I have a decision to make, either I a). blog about my weight loss here, including foods I eat and calories I consume daily, or b). I blog about my weight loss here, not including foods I eat and calories I consume daily, or c). I blog about it all elsewhere. Let me know what you think, I honestly don't know what to do with it.
