Geeeezus.  This is my second attempt to post this entry, so here goes!

I know I’ve been away from this blog for some time now.  I’ve been making some changes in my life.  For instance, I joined Weight Watchers.  Hey, I never in a zillion years thought I’d ever do it but then there comes a point in your life when you say who cares what anyone else thinks.  They’re not carrying around this load, I am.  So there!

Anyways, it’s a mental thing for me.  When I’m in a room filled with other people who are after the same goal, it makes me feel like I have the backing to continue to move forward.  Silly, isn’t it but if that’s what works for me, then I’m going for it.  I met some people at the meetings who simply inspired me.  They tell me about how their health has improved greatly since joining Weight Watchers.  Some of them no longer need certain medications.  Good for them!  I’m not at that point where I need medication which is what led me to join in the first place.  I had a physical done a few months ago and my doctor told me that I’m just below the borderline.  HELLO!  That was the moment I decided I needed to do something before I reach the border, ya’ know.  In a month, I’ve lost 14 lbs.

The other change is … I applied for a receptionist position at a small local business.  A very good friend of mine referred me and I think I did pretty good at the initial meeting with the owner and today’s interview.  She said she’s definitely calling me back next week for another interview with her husband.  I’m excited and very hopeful.  I really want this job.  The owner seemed impressed with me, probably because I wasn’t nervous and she could tell my answers were genuine.  So send some positive vibes my way, please.

‘Til next time, a hui hou!
