At work today I was in a position where I'm not usually placed and I also had a trainee. It happens to be a position in which I used to love to work in but then I transitioned away from it over the last couple of years. It all came back to me so we ended up having a pretty decent day:) I was able to have my coffee right around 9am and eat my breakfast snack as well. I had to get out of work early today because I had to get to an appointment on the other side of town by 4pm. I made it in time for my appointment and since I was near the mall I decided to stop by the Macy's while I was there.
For a couple of months now I've been using a face cream that I got at Macy's, which is made by Clinique, for this dark spot which has appeared on my fore head. It's quite expensive so when I first bought it I almost decided against it since I wasn't sure if it was going to work. I will say that I think it's a wonderful product and has definitely helped lighten the spot. It's also great because it hasn't dried my skin out or anything since I've been using it. Anyway, I just ran out of the bottle this morning so I had to get a replacement. I liked the clerk because she didn't try to sell me anything else and she commented on my beautiful engagement ring:)
When I got home it was already around 5:30pm and I cleaned the downstairs bathroom a little bit before taking a shower. After my shower I folded the laundry from yesterday and then proceeded to start balancing my checkbook. Before I really got into it I called my Mother and spoke with her for a while. Then I called my second to oldest sister and spoke with her for a while. I couldn't believe when I got off of the phone with my sister that it was already 8pm! I made a lean cuisine for dinner, balanced my checkbook then paid bills.
It was wonderful catching up with my second to oldest sister, so the phone call was definitely worth it! She has a way of saying just the right thing when I need to hear it the most. For instance I was telling her about how my co-workers think it's impossible to plan a wedding by December and how it's making me second guess my original plan. She put things into perspective for me about how most people really make too big of a deal about it and that it's definitely something I could make happen if I really want to. Honestly, it's not even been a week and I'm almost sick of talking about my wedding so I don't know how some people do it for two years!
I have been feeling pretty good the last two days and it's definitely helping to keep me positive during this long stretch of work. I think that a huge reason is because I'm keeping to my low fat post surgery diet. Tomorrow night we have plans to go out to dinner for the first time since my surgery and I hope I make the right choice when picking what to get. I'm probably going to try a low fat wrap option or a salad if there's nothing fried in it. Alright well that's it for now!
