I finally remembered to bring my netbook to work with me so that I can do an entry.  I don’t want to log in at work for privacy issues; I somehow sense that the IT department watches us a lot more than they let on.    I am training a new person right now at work and hopefully once she is fully trained I can start going back and doing my job full time.  I don’t mind helping out but it  seems like since I started in this department that is all I ever do is help out others plus do my own full time job.  I think that now that we are getting more fully staffed up it will be so much better and much less stressful.  Well a person can only hope anyways!

One of the projects that I started this year when I got my new iPhone was a photo a day for 365 days.  I have them all posted over at Flickr and this is the link to the full set.   I am having alot of fun doing it and have so far bought three different camera apps for my iphone.  I actually had to stop myself from downloading apps – I am definitely addicted to apps for my phone.  I had a blackberry for so long and I thought that there was no phone that could compare but guess what – I was wrong!  I don’t know how I lived without my iPhone for so long! (Well probably because my service provider didn’t have the iPhone until about 6 months ago!).

I finally figured out how to get these entries to post on twitter as well in case anyone ever decided to drop by here.   Well I better get back to work I go!

Sunday Night

The past week really seemed to fly by even though I spent Wednesday morning thinking that it was Thursday! But I did manage to make it through the week at work with only one sma upset. I am learning to deal with the person at work thyat is mean and a bully in a much better way. I actually took advantage of our EAP program at work and realized that I can’t change this person but I can change how I react. It’s been quite the learning experience for me.

My sister and her husband are trying to sort out their financial probls and I really hope that it all works out for them. Then they need to get some counselling together to deal with their issues and how to work together as a couple. I just worry about my niece and nephew and how this is all affecting them. My niece spent the weekend here, she has exams next week so coming here was so much better forchercfo study here. She loved it, I pampered all weekend, made her all her favorite foods and it was great. Now that she is gone I really miss her!

That’s about it for tonight I ask off to bed.

The Past Few Days

iPhone 365 – January 16, 2010

The past few days have turned out to be quite relaxing even with being busy at work. It may have also been the fact that I only worked three days this week!   With my manager away I really expected more stress and drama but so far it’s been quite the opposite but we will have to see what next week has in store!

I have even had the time to enjoy my iphone and even set up a new flickr set where I plan on uploading a picture everyday from my iphone. 

  Some of the family drama seems to have started to get better-my brother in law told my sister everything and they are getting their house in order.  He also is going to see someone because he now sees he has a gambling issue but thank goodness they didn’t lose everthing this time!  My mom must be watching over them from Heaven!  Now if things with my brother would start to improve I would be really happy but I think that might just be wishful thinking on my part.

Health wise I think I am doing much better.  My blood sugars have really come back under control since I am devoted back to eating healthy and excercising.  I plan on writing again at my weight loss site as well; but want to make some tweaks over there first.  My sister gave me their treadmill which I am so excited about having as I have really struggled with finding the time to go to the gym.  My commute for some reason seems to be taking longer at night home as there is more traffic and I am not getting to the gym until almost six in the evening.  By the time I work out and get home I am then eating dinner way too late for my insulin so it’s a vicious cycle for me.  This way I can come home, start dinner then do the treadmill and still have dinner at a reasonable time. 

Definitely plan on writing tomorrow but for tonight off to bed I go.

Start of A New Week

2010

Right now I am sitting at my mother in law’s doctor waiting for her to go in for a checkup. This is definitely past due as she has something physical going on as well as cognitive issues. I ended up being off today for some tests of my own so it worked out for me to take her to the appointment.

My own first appointment was this morning and it was
an eye doctor appointment. I always worry being a diabetic about my eyes and the last couple of months I haven’t been able to see my computer screen with my glasses on! So of course being the worrier that I am I thought the worst!
Imagine how surprised and relieved I was to learn that my glasses were too strong and that was causing my blurry vision! I was even happier when I picked out a great pair of glasses that will transition into sunglasses. The frames are actually frameless and as light as a feather which I am going to love!

Today has once again been filled with family issues and I am so frustrated with it all. I am just grateful for my wonderful and patient hubby. I know everyone depends on me but once in a while I need a break and that time is now. Not sure if it will happen but at least I can vent here!

Off to bed I go!
