Surprisingly surprised

Back to work this week, and today was good.

Awful for me to even comment when things are going well there! But there will be no complaining from this peanut gallery about it! It was pretty steady all day, and then out of no where I got slammed after everyone left. I actually stuck around in the control room and socialized, I usually run off into the office and keep to myself when I can lol.

It was definitely a coffee morning for me. People have all kinds of rituals to the start of their day. Mine happens to be taking a shower and washing my hair, other people need their cups of coffee, checking their e-mail or the winning numbers on a lotto ticket. I get it, no big deal...we all need things so we can actually function. I start my mornings always by taking my meds first thing. If I don't, I will absolutely forget. I pop some quick pills, head to the bathroom, brush my teeth then shower. I read somewhere that shampooing your hair, isn't good for girls everyday. WELL, I beg to differ. They say it clogs your pores or whatever in your head. My hair is long, straight and fine. If I DON'T take a shower and wash my hair everyday, it gets all greasy and I look like I just rolled out of the trailer park. Disgusting. Carol says it's because your pores are opening up and cleaning themselves out. I say it's disgusting for my type of hair. Some people can get away with not washing their hair, it's just a fact of life I have oily skin thus I MUST SCRUB. 

It's a known fact as you get older, your bodily fluids decrease. Dry skin starts to set in, and therefore people don't shower every day. It'll be one cold day in hell, the day I do not take a shower. Gross. I don't understand why people don't want to smell good. If you're an old lady, you don't smell gross therefore not need a shower EVERYDAY but like twice a week then fine. I prefer not to smell like a sweaty gym locker and a can of tuna. MOVING ON...

I scooted to DD and picked myself up a nice iced coffee. YUM. I sipped on it for most of the morning, it was great! Maybe that's why today was better than others? Hmm, not sure. Tressa is a good friend of mine at work. She had gastric bypass done over a year ago, and she looks awesome! I'm so proud of her! It's really nice that I get to see her pretty often, because she's done everything and tried different ways to lose weight. She is super sweet and encouraging, I really appreciate that I have a friend at work that can keep me in check. Before she left for the day, she popped her head into the office and told me that I was looking really good! Super excited! Even though I'm stuck at the 20lb mark, I still seem to be losing inches and that's great. I can't wait to start slimming down some more, so I can buy new summer clothes and be fabulous!

I hopped on the scale today and it estimated me still at two pounds less than last week. Still good, but I'm pushing to lose at least four more by my appointment next Wednesday. I'm staying positive and keeping myself alert...you never know what good things and bad things might come your way. Either scenario, I'm banking on the good ones to come in strides! :)

Happy Pi day everyone!
