Well today sucks. Got up, stood on the scale and gained 4 pounds in the past 2 days. Now how is that possible !? I ate 1250 calories yesterday but the day before, Memorial Day, I did splurg and not count calories. So I messed up one day. Big Deal. Well, I guess it is a Big FAT deal ! ! ! ugh

I checked my Credit Card balance on line today and well, its a tad on the way-too-big side; $750 smackers. Lately I have been charging everything under the sun. Normally I write checks, but last month I tried something new; charge it all! I know lots of people charge everything, but I normally don’t; I write checks. What I need to do is review low interest credit cards and see which one is the best for me personally. CreditCardsClub.com lists all the credit card, thier interest rates, yearly fees and much more. When we got my son a new Cell Phone a few weeks ago, it took me a while to research each carrier, phone type, plans and prices. I tend to what some people call “process” the information before I decide on something, especially when it involves money, which I don’t seem to have a lot of these days. Going on line is great, and now if I want a new Credit Card, I can just go to one site and all the information is there. Very Convienent.

Since my bill comes in just a few days, I need to get my plan together, re-organize my bills and pay this thing off. I don’t like interest and flat out refuse to pay it. I guess we will be hurtin’ for the next few weeks till payday rolls around again. ugh.

Well, once again I am off track on my eating healthy. I gained 1.7 pounds in just one day. I know, I have heard it before, “dont weigh yourself every day”, but I cant help it!. Yesterday was the Holiday and I know that I ate way to much. I knew it when I went to bed and I knew it when I woke up. The hard part is getting back on track. Its only ONE day, yeah, but one day for me throws me off and it takes me about three days to get back on track. I am trying; today I only ate 250 calories over my allowed 1000 a day. Tomorrow will be better as we now have a fridge full of veggies!

I work in the Travel industry. and let me tell you, these days, it’s pretty hard. No One is traveling much. Usually on the day after a Holiday, we are extremely busy, but today, man it was slow. So slow that I am looking for things to keep me busy at work. I think tho, that even the boss is having a hard time. He is more oft coming over and sitting w/us gabbing away about kids, politics and new movies. Sure, I love sitting around chatting, but I grew up w/strict work ethics and this is starting to knaw away at me. I know it is just a lull in our field, but still, it has me worried, especially when I see moving boxes around. Lets hope the summertime will see some improvment. Any Improvement.

Yes, I am stuck at work today this Holiday. Believe it or not, I do like working Holidays! It is sooo quiet, there are only about 6 of us in the entire room when normally there are over 50.
It’s been a busy weekend and I did not have any time to blog at all. I have noticed tho, that lots of blogges are this way as well.
We went out and got some Flowers to plant and plant them I did. However, today it is pouring rain so I hope they don’t drown. We didn’t get too many, as the prices were a tad high, but I did get a killer deal on Tomatoes. 4 for $2.49 ! They look good too! Now I just need some teak outdoor furniture to sit on and watch them grow. Yeah, right, like I have time to Sit !

We also saw Indy 4. Great Show ! One cannot compair it to the other 3 Indy’s tho, but I feel this movie was great non-the-less. It gave me the impression of the end of one era and the start of another era. I would not be suprized if Shia LeBeouf came back as the Next Generation Indiana Jones. The movie sure gave enough clues to suggest it! I wont go into details, so you will just have to see it yourself.

Well. For the past few month, okay several months, I have been doing just terrible with my weight issues. Today tho, I woke up, stood on the scale as was at 146.8. I know, not that great, but it is going down not up and thats a good thing! In 2004 I was at my all time high of 184. I have gotten down to 140. Ohhh, that was so nice, but nearly impossible for me to maintain. I am 5′ 9″ tall and no, I am not using that as an excuse, but for me 140 is very very hard. I will be happy at 142. So this means I just have about 4 lbs to loose! I can do this ! ! ! I need to get on track more and check in w/my blogger pals more and participate more w/them. I need to put this in my side bar, but for today cus I am at work and have limited access, I will just put the link in this email. XO

I was watching the news again last night, but this time it was okay and not too depressing. They had a blip about Teen age drivers. I guess they now have this GPS tracking devise that you can install in your car and whenever you want to, you can log into their site and see where your kiddo is, how fast he is going and lots more info. I want one of those. My son is turning 15 in a couple years so I have to plan in advance, heeheehee. Anyways, We also have a security system in our house. Its pretty cool. What it does not have is camera’s though. I would love to see what is going on at all time. At work we have cameras too; these days it is hard to get privacy, but I feel that if you are not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to fear. I can get everything I need online, even CCTV security monitors. And if I want ID Cards I can get them on line too. It’s a great site and I have wondered if my work place uses IT Planet as we have to swipe our badge to even get in the front door.
