2nd Week 3rd Semester

So it's the end of the second week and I am so overwhelmed. I think it is funny that I am so overwhelmed because the assignments haven't been hard. They have been very time consuming but not hard. Taking classes on excel and accounting didn't seem so easy to me but now that I am in them, it is completely different. I am hoping in the next few weeks it will get more difficult. I have learned a couple tricks I didn't know about in Excel. So hopefully I will just get better at it. :)

In my personal life, last week I decided to only eat chicken or fish, so no beef, pork, etc. and to not eat anything deep fried. Last week I did a wonderful job. Over the weekend I did go off that plan and then a couple more times this week. So I added a couple more things in this week. No pop or potatoes. The potatoes didn't stick. JS got me this wonderful potato soup cause I needed a warm meal and was having a bad day. It was delicious. So I think with potatoes I have to really think about it. But the no pop has been pretty easy. I have tried to only drink water, milk, and then juices that are 100% fruit juice. It has gone pretty well. Not sure what to add next week, hoping to add some exercise in there at some point but for right now that is what it has to be. I am just so busy anyway, I can't imagination adding exercising at this time. JS has set a rule that we have to take Quinn out to walk at least once a week. We did it last week but have yet to take her out this week. So hopefully this weekend we can walk her both days. She gets exercise in the house but she needs more and so do we. :)

Not sure if I have shared enough about my little man, Michael. He is the cutest baby ever and he is almost laughing. He gives the belly shaking but has yet to vocalize his laughter. It will be wonderful. We FaceTime when we can and he is quite the talker when you can get him going. Sometimes he just watches me talk. I think he is amazed by the Ipad. He also likes to watch himself on the Ipad. I think most kids are like that though. Sometimes I actually have a conversation with Jillian but it is usually my time with Michael. Jillian doesn't seem to mind cause she likes to spend time with him too. I did get to hold him for a few hours when we went to WV for a visit. Hopefully we can visit again before he is too big to hold.

Life is pretty good today.

Today

Sometimes its hard to come to work. You just never know what will happen on any given day. Today, it was hard to come to work. I am alone in my office but there are about 150 other people here right now. Not sure how I feel, I just feel down. I hope today brightens up. It is pouring the rain right now but maybe there can be sunshine at some point?
