Happiness 365 – Day 258

Sweet treat from a sweet friend Smile

My new J.O.B.

These last two days are kicking my butt!

So far I like my new job…

  • Like the people I have met!
  • Like the healthier lifestyle I am leading! I am drinking so much more water and drinking a lot less coffee…
  • LOVE all the stairs I have to take, currently trying to not take the elevator anywhere I go J
  • LOVE the fitness center!
  • LOVE that the café has healthy meals WITH WW points already calculated! AWESOME!
  • LOVE the views from my office…they are AMAZING!
  • LOVE that I have the option of working 7-3:30…trying to convince myself and my body that this is a good thing Smile
  • LOVE that I can wear anything…jeans everyday, shorts if I want to freeze to death. Isn’t that AWESOME? Nice corporate office and we can wear whatever we would like unless we have visitors!

My body however is going through a little detox period…

  • My back hates my new chair and I hate my back! I am hoping it will adjust quickly!
  • My feet are NOT liking me wearing flip flops and bad sandals while walking hills and stairs…my back probably doesn’t like it much either!
  • My wrist HATES my new keyboard…might have to go buy something to help it out this weekend
  • My sleep schedule needs to start getting on board with me…I am TIRED!

I do need to get a few things together…

  • I need to make myself a schedule. I need to officially pick my hours and then stick to them.
  • I need to start packing my meals ahead of time…that means actually grocery shopping!
  • I need to get some comfier shoes so that I can do the stairs and hills and not be in pain!
  • I need to start doing stairs or taking walks during lunch Smile

Life is an adjustment…and I am looking forward to getting things on track!

One more thing…we start walking NEXT FRIDAY! I made my goal…THANK YOU VERY MUCH! But my teammate Amy still needs to reach hers. Do you have $5, $10, $20?? Can you donate and help end Breast Cancer Forever? ANYTHING really does help! Go visit her donation site at www.the3day.org/goto/amygoestodc

Much love my friends…what do you have going on this weekend?

Happiness 365–Day 257

Sept282

My welcome to the new team lunch on my first day!  YUM!

Dear Janna,

begin

Today is a fresh new start.  Nothing can hold you back from going after what you want out of this life.  The last year is over.  Time to move in a different direction and take charge or YOUR destiny.

You have moved on from a relationship that wasn’t meant to be.

You got that new job and you start TODAY!

You are getting away from having food around you constantly.

You are letting your friends be your friends.

You aren’t hiding away anymore.

You have a lot to look forward to.  And it can all be exciting…if YOU LET IT BE!  So get out there and grab it by the horns…finish the year strong! 

Love,

Yourself!

Little did Mamarazzi know that Amy and I live less than 15 minutes from each other Smile  So for the first time ever I got to swap with my partner in person over lunch and it was FAB!  I love that I got to be there while she opened her goodies…and on top of that we had a great lunch!
