It's Tuesday And I'm Rambling On About Nothing!
>> 5/05/2009

I guess I should start by apologizing for not posting as often. I didn't fall off the planet, or admit myself to rehab, I'm just working. Sound fun?
I've mentioned previously that the branch I worked at closed at the end of December. I still haven't found a job. Apparently, I know too much about some things and not enough about others.
So, I decided after talking to some relatives who had their own cleaning business to start my own. Now when I told one of my friends she said, "yuck! I hate cleaning!" OK, so it's not glamorous, but I can either work for $8 an hour or $20 - $25 an hour. You do the math.
Now at night instead of writing I'm tired and want to go to bed. Imagine that! Cool new concept! It's one that definitely doesn't run in my family. I'm generally a night owl. It'll be one or two in the morning and I'm more awake than I was at noon. It's a very hard habit to break.
If, and that's a big if, hubby gets down with his lawn care jobs in time, we are planning a camping trip for the weekend. I recently started an outdoor camping blog. Now hubby thinks we can deduct all camping trips and equipment on our taxes in the name of research. I'm not sure the IRS will love that idea.
I finally moved the mulberry tree I'd been planing on moving for two weeks. Why did it take so long? Because no one would help! And then my DS told me it was too big to move, there was no way I could move it! Ha! Don't tell me I can't do something! OK, so it may not live, but it's now moved! Done by noneother than myself and the hundreds of muscles that will be screaming in pain tomorrow! ...Tell me I can't do something! I've watched The Biggest Loser. I know anything is possible.
And speaking of weight loss, I hate 40! All this physical work and working out and have I lost any weight? Nope, nayda, zilch! I even tried a colon cleansing product. Still the same. Once you're 40 you might as well sit on the couch and eat a bag of chips, you ain't gonna lose weight anyhow!
And finally, do you feel the media is just going a little hysterical with this Swine Flu? No, I don't want it. But people die from the 'normal' flu and chicken pox and stomach viruses and we don't become paranoid about it. Now, I've got to go buy masks and hand sanitizer and I can never shake your hand. Geez... I think Ill just go out and plant something -- my plants have yet to get me sick.

Only thing good about the flu is that sometimes you get too sick to eat. :)
There's always a positive, right?
I feel the same way about 35---I can watch what I eat ALL the time, and do regular workouts, and NOTHING happens. I get tired and I get cranky easily...and I lose no weight. I don't gain any, but I also don't gain any when I barely do any workouts and barely watch what I eat.
Frustrating!
Say it isn't so... really. I have been fighting about five lbs and they are clinging to me like a leach starved for an eternity. I quit all candy, eat less and have been exercising more. SO you are saying in two more years this is just an act of futility....
