Vacuumed, did laundry, repotted some plants, got trim painted (one coat to go), took a nap, rode the trainer, short strength session. Now I am going to shower and do some dinner prep and some wine workouts.

Champagne on tap today, just cause its gray, sleety and yucky.

wgraves7582 - 2010-02-05 4:45 PM Alright Ghoulies - heading off shortly.

Have a great weekend.  I am super busy so I won't be around.

Stay warm and safe if you are in the snowbelt.

Stay active if you are not.

Tom & Neal - this is tough work being the only male influence all day - can I have your employer's numbers so I can talk to IT!!!


Poooorr ting!

ironannekidd - 2010-02-05 3:38 PM I had a 2+ hour power nap

With the amount I've slept in the past 2 days I could give Melindy a run for her money!


I am about to take one of those.  A cold has just kicked my butt today.  This is the first time I've had any more than a sniffle all winter.  Decided it would be prudent to skip today's workout, mix a stiff drink, and then sleep.

Sorry to leave you hanging like that.  But can you really complain about having the women of this village all to yourself all day?

just don't understand why so many people make French Toast during big snowstorms, because everyone runs out to buy milk, bread and eggs....

Well the combination of power nap and bloody mary are making it hard to sleep right now.  I think I'm forcing myself into bed at 10 regardless of how I'm feeling

And for the record - it's not my IT dept that's keeping me off of here during the day, it's the insanely high volume of phone calls/emails/interviews I've been having every day. And if I get a breather there's always some other crap going on right now. Grr!

I do have some good news though - my orders to the ship were officially canceled today, and I will be staying exactly where I am until at least July while I figure out what happens next.

There's still plenty of uncertainty, but at least now I have some TIME to figure things out.

That's probably smart.

BTW, the little devil on my shoulder says to tell you that another Bloody Mary or 4 will probably help you feel a bit tired.

I've been listening to that little guy since I woke up.  I won't tell you how many drinks he's forced down my throat since then

That's great to hear that you are not being shipped out for awhile.  Hopefully you can find what works best for you and your wife and your family in the meantime!  IMHO it seemed absurd what they were trying to make you do.  Hopefully you can bring some sanity to your situation now.

Thanks Neal. Sanity is definitely goal #1. It'll still be a little while before I know anything about prospective employment, but if I'm lucky I may know as soon as mid/late march. We'll see...

In the meantime, I plan to just keep working hard and keep trying to make improvements in all areas - family, work, fitness, etc. I'll be keeping everyone posted!
