Three Hundred Fifty-First Entry

Good evening!

It's late and I'm tired. I'm a little stressed out because I have a meeting at Menlo Park City Hall tomorrow afternoon and I hate meetings, especially ones where I am going to be the center of attention and have to do most of the talking. But, I guess this is part of "the deal" and as I progress in my career, these types of meetings and interactions are going to be more commonplace. In general, these first two days of the work week have been frustrating and tiring. Lots of back and forth, and very little resolution to project issues. I'd hate to say it's an anomaly, but I'm finding this crap happens all the time.

Ralph is still on the loose. Amy bought glue traps and we are now just waiting. Little Ralphy...we're gonna get you!

Our buffet is in it's final resting place, the old dining table has been moved up to the office, the new dining table has been assembled, and two of the six chairs we got are assembled. The Ikea furniture is fairly easy to put together, but there are a lot of steps. It probably doesn't help that I'm not using a power screwdriver. Just elbow grease. I won't say it's more satisfying to assemble all the furniture this way, I'm just too lazy to go downstairs and get the power drill. LOL Tomorrow I finish the last four chairs, yay!

I finally got my classes! Unfortunately, the only accounting class I could get meets on campus once a week, and has an online component. I was number 18 or something on the waiting list for the online section, so I gave up and signed up for the campus section. I was getting desperate there for a minute and registered for a PE class...LOL. I've actually kept it! It's called Nutrition for Fitness/Weight Loss. Sounds like it will be a very helpful class as I am trying to be serious about getting healthy.

How about a New Years Resolution check in?:

-I haven't written any handwritten letters just yet, but I may take a minute or two to write out a couple notes during my lunch break tomorrow. Thanks to those of you who want to correspond the old fashioned way!

-I have been eating healthy, but not working out at all. My back is bothering me, and has been since Xmas. I'm thinking that I'll give myself another week of workout rest, and if my back is still bothering me, I'll see the doctor. Amy made pita pizzas tonight, and they were good!

-I haven't been leaving work any earlier than I used to. It's sad and I fear has become an unbreakable habit. I have too many things to do at home to be at work for 12-14 hours.

-I haven't finished any books, and haven't done any puzzles, but it's early in the year yet...

How are everyone else's resolutions going?
