The Bon Voyage goes to my Boss, or should I say ex-boss. He is off to a new role after he comes back from his vacation and wedding. Believe it or not, I do wish him well. He was a pretty good boss/supervisor until about 6 months ago....then he got strict and picky. Oh well, here's hoping our new Boss will be great.
I am still going to Curves. I was a little bummed out after my last weigh-in on the 19th. I hadn't lost any pounds but I did lose some inches and 0.5% body fat. So it is still positive. Anywho I went in today, and thought I would weigh myself before my workout and I am down 2.5lbs!! Yippie! I am hoping this keeps up for the next few weeks so that my next weigh-in is a success too :)
For Father's Day I made breakfast in bed for my hubby and then he convinced me to get some shorts for myself. So we went to Pennington's (which I have been avoiding as it was just another thing that made me feel like I would never get the weight off....silly I know....but that is just how I felt) I picked up 2 pairs of Capri pants (one cargo style, one denim) a pair of denim shorts and another pair of Jersey Capri pants for working out or relaxing in.
My son turned 6 yesterday. On the 19th we had his birthday party at the local cinema. We and 13 kids (which included my 2 and my nephew) watched Toy Story 3 in 3D. Great movie. I almost cried at the end!! I won't say anything else as I don't want to spoil it for you, but I will say that it was a great movie! The kids were all so well behaved. They all sat in a row and watched the whole movie (almost 2hrs long) and I only had to get up 3 times for bathroom breaks lol!
Today is the last day of school. Both of my kids did well. My daughter goes on to grade 4 with 7 A's and 7 B's and my son goes to grade 1 with an award for fairness. The kindergarten classes don't get graded A, B or C.
I guess I should also update you on 'Guy'. Well....he is doing so much better. Unfortunately he came around too late so his assessment was a not meeting and he had to prepare an action plan. But he certainly has stepped up to the plate and is preforming quite well. He also requested me as a coach/mentor. I was surprised and flattered. We are going to work together to get him to take the last steps to be his full potential.
I requested my contribution assessment be held early so that I could work against any opportunity areas before I present for my promotion. It went extremely well! I was so nervous that it would turn out bad, but it didn't. My co-workers thought I was silly for being worried, but I couldn't help it :)
Well I think that is about all for now. Life has been stressful, but I am working hard to stay as positive as I can.
Here is a ripple I received in my email box on Monday that I think is suiting:
