I somehow lost weight without particularly trying…just working like crazy I guess and had little time for eating. The doctor was a bit shocked and I’m a little worried too now. I thought my ideal weight was 135 but at that weight a number of health formulas/calculators tell me that I am nearly underweight. Weird. That is certainly something I have never had to worry about before.
I bought a very expensive PDA and I’m going to use it for the school year to see if I miss less meetings and get more done, grading, etc…
By the way, if you are considering buying an Axim, don’t. Activesync sucks as much as everyone said it does. In other words, it does not work at all, does not let me connect to my computer with the PDA, which means I really just have an electronic organizer. And Dell blames Microsoft and won’t help. I have words for them.
but the thing is, in the summer I am generally much happier and have more self-esteem. It’s now that school is starting and being around a lot of low self-esteem kids who like to put down everyone around them and also being around the other teachers/staff who are all depressed…that is what does me in. But school is starting so I will give it another try! It is yet another year.
