We really hadn't cleaned the house fully since we moved in...so it was time. Plus Louie's parents coming in for the weekend helped motivated us. So, we spent the night cleaning. I cooked us some Spaghetti and Garlic Bread for dinner...then we took some over to Dad and had him notarize Louie's paper thing...stole some comet from's dads...and went at the house. It feels good to have a clean house again.
Work has been very stressful lately. I had another run-in of huge errors (some my fault, some were not, but I had to fix them anyways...and got blamed). I have spent the last few days fixing all these errors...plus getting new orders...so I am feeling very overwhelmed. Also, the company is getting more and more "stressed", meaning we are really really pinching pennies, and people seem very nervous about the economy. So, I've updated my resume and am planning on putting it out there just to see what bites. I like working here, love the small company, and the fact that I am by myself...but I would like to eventually buy a house...and for that to happen...a money increase might be nice. No hopes for that here.
I also found out that I have high cholesterol. I went in yesterday to get blood work done, and they called me today. My total Cholesterol is 243 (it is supposed to be under 200). My Triglycerides are at 79 (supposed to be below 150, so that is good). Good Cholesterol is at 60 (which is very good). Bad Cholesterol is at 167 (which is supposed to be under 100). Also, my white blood cell count is low...not sure what that means exactly. I was told that I need to exercise and go on a strict diet for 6 weeks...and then get re-checked. I go into the doctors on Monday to talk more about this.
I got checked because my family is known for heart problems and high cholesterol...looks like it was a good thing I did get checked...
Fishing tonight...plus more TV watching...damn shows coming back on..wasting my time!

I too have high cholesterol- I was checked about a year and a half ago and I am pretty sure my number was around the same as yours-which is why I started on the weight watchers program to begin with. I haven't been re-tested since though, so i think i will ask my doctor to send me in when I go in for my exam this month. My doctor didn't seem to think it was something that I needed to make drastic changes over besides losing weight at that time- and since that has been so yo-yoing I am sort of afraid to find out the number again.
It definetly made me start thinking about my health more when they told me that, as I also have a history of early heart disease and high cholesterol on both sides.
Stupid adult things to worry about!
Good luck on the job front by the way-maybe you can look over this way??
Fishing was fun huh??? well maybe it was more fun for me since i caught fish :P
I hate when work gets stressful...it will pass...it always does :)
