My Journey

This past semester has been the most stressful one so far, and it, along with life, has made it very difficult for me to find time to write. I think that this blog will be a way to help me get some writing in at least once a week.  I'm going to try to post every saturday when I get home from my Weight Watchers meeting and breakfast at Subway-both with my momma.


I joined WW two weeks ago and Mom joined the week before.  Duirng my first week, I lost 3 lbs, but this week I gained .4 lbs.  My struggles with this are eating out, soft drinks at work, trying to find healthy choices on campus, and the fact that I work at a buffet and therefore eat there three days a week.


At work last night, I fell on my butt... It was more embarrassing and amusing then painful.  I only had ten minutes to get the garbage together, so I was running around like a spaz and didn't see the rice that had spilled in the kitchen.


On Wednesday night, I had to shut down frontline on top of cleaning the bathrooms, which is the cashier's responsibility.  Frontline is where our customers get their drinks when they first come in, so there's a lot of cleaning involved.  Besides that, when you work on frontline you have to run back to the dishroom to get plates and trays-both have to be checked by you-and more cups and coffee mugs.  It took me an hour and a half to do all of this because I had to keep running back to the register to take care of my customers.  I also pulled something in my back because I was stupid and picked up a tea urn when I didn't realize that it was quite that heavy.


Am missing my K.  Normally, I don't get to seem him until Sunday after we have lunch together on campus on Friday, and it's the same this week.  But he left on an Ecology field trip on yesterday and won't be back until sometime tomorrow.  I know that it's the same amount of time, it's just a bigger distance and feels different somehow.
