I Am Really Not A Flake

So my husband and his friends were talking a while back, I happened to be in the next room and heard my husband say he would like a billet grille. So that immediately peaked my interest and I butted into their conversation. "Ooohh, I would like one too! It would give me something to talk about on my blog!" I got a few strange looks and continued on with my questions and comments. "Can I use it in the house or does it go out side? Is it a good grill?? Honey, we need a new grill for out side." At this point and time I must have looked like a real flake cause they are all trying really hard not to laugh. My husband finally stops me and says"It is not a grill to cook food on, it is a billet grille, for the truck!" Awww..now I feel like an ass!

So it gave me something to talk about on my blog, but it had nothing to do with food!

What Do I look Like?

This is just a little gripe of mine…

There is a lady who I work with, in her 50’s mind you, and she is as responsible as my 12 year old son. Everyday I listen to her bitch and complain about everything. Her most recent drama was being evicted, I mean come on, and how old do you need to be before you know you need to pay your rent!! Nothing is for free…

So she is broke and asked me if she could borrow some money. First of all, I don’t know you well enough to give you my hard earned money. Second of all, you haven’t been paying your rent, you should have boat loads of cash and third of all, what makes you think that I make enough money to let you borrow $500.00 and still pay my own bills! Helloooo!! I mean, I am not broke or hurting for money, but I damn sure don’t have any to spare. If you can’t pay your landlord what makes you think that I will be confident that you will pay me back!! So of course I could not to that but there are plenty of places that will give you a cash advance online. Needless to say, she was not pleased with that answer.

What do I look like…and ATM machine??

Just A Short Absense

After having 11 days off from work, going back to work to only have to work 3 of the longest days of my life, I am finally back on my regular work schedule!

This week has started off a little rough, I had a little cold and the diet went down the toilet. I haven't eaten anything to bad, just haven't been focused. Feeling better and ready to get back to my goals...and no I haven't ridden the bike yet! LOL..

Weighing In On Week 1

So I am pleased with myself. I lost 2 pounds this week. I did what I needed to do. It certainly was not a perfect week, but that's okay. I did not exercise as planned, but that has always been my downfall. This week my goal is to exercise atleast twice. Need to start small, setting goals is great but starting off with them to high could be my demise.

I also wanted to mention something else. My insurance company offers something called Healthy Alternatives. They offer discounts on participating health related services and products. For example, if you wanted to join Weight Watchers, registration would be waived. There are discounts for acupuncture, fitness centers, nutritional counseling, massage, all of course with participating providers. So why not call your group/individual health insurance company and see if they offer something similar. You might find a decent discount to something you have always wanted to try.
