Ok, so I missed Weight Watchers this week. I wasn’t skipping I just was out of town! However I did purchase a new digital scale for home which is a welcomed addition because I truly believe the scale at Nubodys does not work!
I am going to celebrate for a brief moment. I have my *first* goal weight in mind now. I am just over half way there. I have just over 40 pounds to go to reach it. I was reflecting on this earlier last week and realized I have been doing WW for 10 months! Where does the time go. I think that losing 45 pounds in 10 months isn’t half bad! It’s better than gaining that is for certain and if I keep up the hard work, I could be close to my goal by Christmas if not before. I honestly believe now that I have the gym membership renewed I will see a big difference in the weekly numbers. The hard work will show somewhere.
Outside of that little bit of my life everything else is alright. My term wraps up with work on May 2nd, and I can only pray that in the not too distant future I know if I will get permanent or not. I plan on working my ass off for the next month and hoping for the best.
I do promise to be more routine in the updates as I have dusted off the camera for photography and want to get into some of my old routines that seasonal depression stripped me of.
I will be going through my belongings and purging clothes, items etc over the next while. Let me know if there is anything I have that interests you.
Of note, if you know anyone who wants to buy a Song Wega, Trinitron 36inch Flat Screen (not flat panel) Television, let me know.

My squig@nb.sympatico.ca email is going to go down for a day or two, so if you need me call, or email at squigzella@gmail.com please.
Also I am in a desperate search for an MP4 converter that works and will convert more than 60 percent of my file. Anyone have any suggestions?
Yesterdays weather was so damn wet. Work was dead which means today should be chaotic, but I’ll survive. I went and filed my taxes after work, nice return, too bad all of it is gone already. Well not all, but 2/3rd of it went to bills. You’d think that would alleviate stress. I just keep waiting for the year I don’t need it for something and can buy myself something nice with it.
I have a coffee date tonight. It’s not a blind date, it’s actually someone I know and have hung out with in groups a few times. Very nice guy, who actually encouraged me to call him, so we’ll see how it goes. I think he’s pretty sweet and easy to look at, oh and did I mention he’s a butcher! Muhahaha.
Anyhow, I am off to work. Lots of changes going on there too. Didn’t think the changes would bother me but last night I felt a bit of anxiety about it. I’m sure as my new partner gets settled in, I’ll feel better.
Enjoy the sunshine today!

I’m actually home today with a stomach bug. I think it has mostly passed now but around 4am I woke up and thought I was going to die. It has progressively gotten better since 10am or so. So I took the opportunity to do a bit of laundry and spend some quality time napping with Harry. I think he enjoyed the fact that Mama was home with him today.
I am still waiting on my T4 from YPG to arrive. Really pissing me off that it is this late. However they did have to be sent out my the 29th not in my hand. However if doesn’t arrive by weeks end I’ll be making a few calls.
I downloaded the tools for my new phone last night, all kinds of neat things. I added some MP3’s for ringtones and my address book. I think I like G’s ringtone the best. *snicker*
I am going to venture out a bit later and visit the Geeks and see what they are up to just to get out of the house. As much as I needed to stay home for fear of my tummy exploding at work, I have a lot on my mind and being left alone to my own devices too long today would be just plain counter productive.
I have two friends actually who are having a really hard time getting some aspects of their lives sorted out. I’m just sending out positive thoughts to them in hopes that they find the clarity they need for the decisions they have to make.
On that note, I am off to clean up before venturing out into the great beyond.

So I have good news to start this post. I FINALLY reached my actual 40 pound loss at Weight Watchers! The last 6 weeks has been a yo yo between about 3-4 pounds, I am finally over the hump! I am very pleased. Now I am halfway to my goal, which feels very rewarding. So oddly in celebration last night we played some Rockband and had a few people over. Mel decided she was going to make Martini’s and Gerry and I drank an entire bottle of Fireball… We called it a night sometime after 4. The boys all had a good time. Dale started drinking before eating which proved so entertaining!
I did take a few pics which I promise to load later. Some may be incriminating.
I did get a new phone and a new number. If I haven’t called you with the # and you want it, feel free to email me at squigzella@gmail.com and ask for it.
Someone I thought was a close friend has hurt my feelings. I am likely to let it go in a few days, but for the moment I’m kind of ticked off. No Dale it’s not you.
But anyhow, I just hate how people forget sometimes when you were there for them, and only seem to remember when you weren’t. Maybe it’s a human flaw… maybe I am even the same way. I don’t know.
Anyhow tax season is off to a rip roaring start last Friday… OMFG work was insane during the last half hour. I sort of have my own opinion. But I really think during these peak times there should be two people working right til 4:30, maybe if it keeps up they will staff for that, I’m not sure. All I know is I can be totally laid back and not stressing about my day at all. 4pm hits and that half hour is absolute hell for me. I leave and I’m stressed right out. Very odd. But I still love the job.
On that note, I am going to go watch Transformers and enjoy my hangover. Later on I might just call someone and leave a voicemail. If I’m lucky, maybe they’ll call me back.
