This and That.....
Apr. 14th, 2016 10:28 amWell, I've been busy at work transistioning to my new job and training my replacment. We've had a few things blow up (not literally) and we need to keep things going. I'm feeling at 6s and 7s on a lot of things. I think I'm just not ready for the change and way over ready for it? Not sure if that makes sense. But dealing with old folks who I'd forgetten were horribly passive agressive, doing a lot of navel gazing with myself and just getting hit by too many reminders that I'm not so good on emotional intelligence and that my first responses in my head should not be what comes out of my mouth. HEading into a new place where no one knows me is good and bad. I have to behave per norms and get used to being "on" all of the time...course that is what I need to do normally and I forget. Sighs.
I've done some knitting. I finished two hats. 1 is for my best bud coirker on the current program and the second is for my counterpart at a supplier who I've worked very closely with.


Friday we had a small family dinner with Ari for her bday. It was nice and the kiddos had fun. I ended up turning my ankle (the bad food) over completely on a curb edge and its been driving me bats ever since. IT was find Saturday/Sunday and part of monday but Tuesday the shoes I was wearing caused me to turn it twice before I even got into work. Yesterday I braced it and it swelled way too much. Sighs.
So I have not been going to the gym but I have been watching what I've been eating..especially after a week or so of random stomach pains/ailments that left me wondering if I needed to see the doc. Its the same spot they havent' been able to figure out what is wrong the last time but I was pretty crappy for a week or so and then the ankle.
The house construction projects are almost at an end. The new porch is done and they are taking the roof off teh house today and putting the decking/insulation on today if all goes well. I have paid for the new coolers and which will get installed next week just in time for the warmer weather which is good.
I'm still conflicted on what costumes I want to make for Dragon Con. The house under construction and my studio piled high with Estrella laundry (that needs to be put away is all) just makes me cringe. The bedrooms are disasters but the rest of the house isn't too bad. I even demolded the master bath last weekend. I'm heading to the KWHSS in two weeks and have nothing new to wear and I'd hoped to make some thing. Sighs. I can scramble for a new dress I think. We shall see. I just need to motivate but its hard to do when you are in an emotional slump.
