Wednesday

Wednesday was not a great day for me. I had some problems with a co-worker's inability to treat me with respect. I believe that each person deserves to be treated as if you respected them. Maybe you don't respect them, but you should at least pretend to. Like in most jobs, people never know how much work you do. The accounting department is the catch-all for things that happen in the office.

Not only do we handle every single cent of money that our company receives or expenses, but we take phone calls ALL DAY, talk to employees about things going-on, schedule events in our rental areas, schedule and reserve travels, type up paper work for those who can't do it themselves, fax things for people who can't fax, etc.

I get that filling out a purchase requisition, getting a purchase order, and filling out a receiver for any money spent is a pain in the ass. I get that it takes time out of your day...but what is not understood by those people filling out the paper work, is that we have to take that purchase requisition, verify that your supervisor knows you are expending that money, create 3 purchase orders for the vendor, pending file, and a copy for the requisition, then we have to either place the order for you or wait for you to purchase the item, then we have to collect the receiver and receipt, expense it to the correct account, and then file it.....if you do not fill out that paper work, then we have to ask you to track all of that information down for us...and Lord knows your fun to deal with! So....before you get all frustrated with the paperwork, remember we get no more joy from it than you do...

Also, isn't it common sense to be nice to the people who enable you to make purchases and cut your pay check? I'm not saying that we could really keep you from anything, but should you associate us with all things good? ughh. A please and a thank you can change everything...well, and just not being a bitch. I'm just sayin'.

ok readers,
   If it hasn't been blatantly obvious, I have definitely been slacking on my dieting. I have been cramming junk and more junk in to my stomach. I have no excuses. I have allowed the stress in my life to overpower my ability to think straight in front of a pan of rice krispie treats (and many other delicious and disgusting foods). I have to make a change in my life. My asthma is getting worse; I would love to blame that on allergies alone...but who am I kidding. Walking up the stairs should not require a 10 minutes cool down. I shouldn't feel like I am on the verge of a heart attack when I walk my dog....Who is still chunky. I shouldn't have nightmares about getting diabetes because I like snacking. I have a wonderful husband and high hopes of having children in the coming year or so....I also have at least 2 weddings to be in within the next 7 months.

As I have stated before "nothing tastes as good as being skinny feels" -Bob Harper. I have tried it on my own and failed...again. So here is my plan. I will make a post every day that reads like this:

Breakfast:
    Stress level (1-10)

Lunch:
    Stress level (1-10)

Exercise for the day:


 I am asking for my readers to please take part in my weight loss journey. I would love feed back on my postings; encouragement, tips, prayer etc.

For those of you in town, I would love a partner to exercise with. My schedule permits exercise after 4pm most days. I prefer to exercise before 7pm, but I open to other times. I love to walk, swim, weight lift, and Zumba. I can show you how to weight lift or do Zumba, if you are interested in learning. The weight lifting I know how to do is for toning (not building I would like to run, however I have pretty bad asthma, so I am VERY slow and would require a patient running buddy. Again, I am open to different forms of exercise.




For those of you out of town, I would love info on different types of exercises you are trying, fun/healthy recipes, how your weight loss journey is going (if you have one), etc.




thank you all for sticking with me!
