its been awhile, i know.
things at work have been changed around so its been harder to write. i had to move back into my old office - which is not an office but a walkway from everyone's offices to the general manager's and assistant general manager's offices. which means, i once again have no privacy. there are three doors through my office so people can walk in right in front of me, to the right of me and worst of all, right behind me.
i never realized how important personal space can be. but, its only temporary. apparently the director of sales okay'ed my moving to my new position before my replacement was hired without clearing that with the gm. AND he was not too happy that there was no one within yelling distance from him to fulfill his every whim.
i don't hate the guy - he is just inconsiderate, uncaring, thoughtless, clueless, rude, loud, obnoxious and ocassionally degrading to women. you know, all-in-all, a good guy. not that this makes him a bad person, but he has also recently decided to jump on the band-wagon of becoming a 65 year old new father. i don't understand the trendiness of that whole concept. good lord, he will be lucky to see his son graduate. BUT, alas, his wife is only 30 - so all will be well. *shudder*
anyhow - i am only slightly complaining this morning. my replacement starts on wednesday and i am only being asked to train her for a week. then, i am SO out of there. i love my new position - i love my new boss. i have just had little time to actually DO my new job because my old one is so LOUD and well, he is the GM.

i painted our office (at home) this weekend. i am proud of myself, it came out really nice. i did one of those textured looks - i put a deep sequoia color as the base and then a lighter shade on top. i was worried that i would get done and hate it but i actually like it, and the husband likes it too.
i am going to paint our bedroom next. i LOVE painting. its amazing how different a $10 can of paint and two days can make a room look. i think that in a year - i will have our whole house painted.
everything on the home front is okay. we are completely broke but that's nothing new.
i did bad with my diet this weekend. i ate like 8 mini-cupcakes because i was craving icing. and then i felt like crap and hid all of the evidence from cesar. i ate nothing else that day and i will spend two hours at the gym today but i really must STOP the self-defeating behaviour. i dont know why i just dont - i dont know what comes over me. ugh.
