T-minus…
So, mid point of the week already, and no, my boss has not spoken to me. I hate this holding pattern. But, by the end of the week, I should have an answer, one way or the other. And that will be a relief, no matter the outcome. I may not like the outcome (and I’m feeling pretty fucking sure I won’t), but I’ll have a definitive answer.
I had my yearly checkup yesterday and am pleased to say I’ve lost 20 pounds in the last year. Granted, I still have at least 20 more to get rid of to be at a “healthy weight” for my height, but progress is progress. Of course, the fact that it’s been stress driving the weight loss isn’t really a good thing, but hey, I’ll take what I can get.
I was searching around Topix.net for stories on my home town, and I found this one about my high school chemistry teacher. I’m glad to see he’s still teaching, and that he’s being recognized for his work. I hated high school with a passion, but I enjoyed Mr. Karpyk’s classes.
I’m trying not to let the holiday stress get to me, but it’s hard. I haven’t touched the Christmas tree since the kids were down this weekend. I don’t really care about it much. I think I’m mostly done with shopping. I need to take an inventory this weekend, and make sure I’ve got everything covered.
