So much to say. It’s late.
I was pregnant. Now I’m not :(
It’s been a month, I was incredibly sad, now i’m hopeful. I will try again.

I really, really want to become pregnant soon. My husband and I have talked about it and we are both ready. I stopped taking my birth control pills a few days ago, so I guess now I just need to be patient and let my body get use to not being on the pill…
It took me awhile to get into it, but once I did I really enjoyed it.
I didn’t really think I would like this, as I am not really into politics (I should be!). I ended up enjoying it.

So good! I could read them all again RIGHT NOW!
I really wanted to like this job, but I just don’t know. There are days when it is okay, but most days are incredibly stressful for me. The environment I work in deals with life and death, which makes me feel anxious most of the time. Everyday is stressful, it is such an unprofessional atmosphere.
I keep telling myself to give it a full year. I’ve heard over and over again people telling me that it takes a new nurse at least a year to feel comfortable at work.
But truthfully I no longer know if nursing is for me.
Today was the sort of day that made me hate my job. I really felt like I could not do a single thing right today. And…I almost cried. I seriously had to bite my tongue and take deep breaths in order to fight back the tears. I want to be good at what I do, but maybe I just don’t have what it takes for this job…
Usually If I am wearing eyeliner for an evening out it’s okay, but when I am at work for 8 hours (and I should note that I tend to sweat at my job….I know…yuck!) my eyeliner does not stay put. Because of this I just avoid wearing it. But I really want to start wearing it and therefore need to find a brand that will work for me. I guess it’s time to take a trip to Sephora, or some such place.
After going out for drinks last week with a couple of girls from work, I had the idea that I should make it a priority to get to know the people I work with. The more they become “friends” rather than “co-workers”, the more it will become enjoyable to go to work.
So I think I will invite some people from work out for drinks again!
I lost 1.2 pounds this week, which brings me to a total of 12 pounds lost.
What is really exciting is that my jeans are fitting a little looser, which makes me see that my body is slowly changing after all. I still have at least 50 more pounds to go, but I am trying to look at it in terms of smaller goals. For example I am looking forward to reaching 15 pounds, which is only three pounds away!
Small steps!
I forget which author this is translated by, but I really enjoyed it’s simple messages.
by Eckhart Tolle. I liked it although it was sort of hard to get through.
i lost 2.2 lbs this week, for a total loss of 10.2!!! I’m so happy that I made it to the 10 pound mark (still 45-50 more to go…). This week I added some exercise, and although I did indulge a little, I ate reasonable portions.
