If At Once You Don't Succeed, Try, Try Again

Well, I am trying the Weight Watchers diet - again. I got a three-month online membership for $50. If I don't see some success within that time frame, I will give up dieting forever. I'm into Week 3 and have not seen a change. I think it might be too late for me.

Tomorrow Piper Shae is coming for a sleepover! I think we'll go see the Mr. Peabody and Sherman movie and maybe grab some ice cream? Don't worry, I will count the ice cream points! 

Sunday Shawn and I are going to see Disney on Ice. I'm excited - I've always wanted to see that show. Shawn said 'Let's do it, and get the best seats in the house.' So, we are sitting front row, a bit off to the side of center stage. Should be magical and make me miss Disney!!

I think George might back out of the Disney cruise. It's going to cost him $4,200 (they will all need passports) and that might be too steep a price for him. And that price tag doesn't include Piper's airfare as I told him I would pay for that (saving him about $300.) I asked if they decide they can't make it if Shawn and I could still take Piper and got no response for that. I know that if Piper gets to go, Breezy will make a stink about going, too. So, the Disney cruise might just be me and Shawn. George will have to decide fairly soon because I want to book within the next few weeks. Prices seem to be going up.

SEVEN WEEKS TILL IRELAND!!!!

I Hate My Job

Well, it's official - I hate this new job. I pushed away from my desk after my shift in tears - three THREE no-passes today. And I hadn't had one in over a week. It was partially due to my poor monitor which leaves everything a bit blurry around the edges, partially due to my dwindling eyesight which leaves everything a bit blurry around the edges, partially due to the insanely boring mundane work and partially due to the asinine expectations and pressure the department puts on the job. Does it REALLY matter if a phone number is listed as daytime instead of both? Will that make the client experience unacceptable? 

But who is going to hire a 50 year old woman?
