I'm busy...at least, that is my excuse

Well, I have been slacking off lately on my exercise and diet regimen. But a lot is going on, so...I know, that is no excuse. Okay, so what's new, what's new...well, I got a new job. I now work from 8:15 am to 12:30 pm at Thurman & Phillips, LLC law office as the front desk receptionist. Today was my third day on the job and it's pretty easy. All I do is answer the phones, greet clients (which there are very few of), and do some other light office work. Most of the time I'm pretty bored, so today I played Solitaire and looked up books for my research trip to Mexico City (which is in less than two weeks!!!).

But don't worry--I didn't totally diss my campus job at UTSA; I work there in the afternoons now, and I'm actually enjoying it a lot better. I have more to do (if you've ever worked in an office, you know that afternoons are usually busier than mornings), plus I'm usually in a better mood in the afternoons than in the mornings. I'm fed, more alert, and people don't get on my nerves NEARLY as much as they do in the mornings...

Also, this week we have been packing up our little apartment, anxiously awaiting the day when we can move into our new little apartment...well, at least it will have two bedrooms instead of one. I finally get an office--yea! Friday we leave at 1:00 to head up to Abilene for the graduation ceremonies of my brother, Mark, from high school. Can you believe he will be in college in the fall? I can't. All my grandparents will be there as well, so Derek and I get the pull-out couch for a bed all weekend--woohoo.

Sunday after lunch we head back to San Antonio and begin the moving process once here. We plan on getting a lot of stuff done Sunday evening (like boxes, random stuff) and then Monday morning we have some people from our church coming to help out with the heavy stuff (furniture, etc.). I think we will be able to get it all done fairly quickly with the help that we will get.

So, between the new job and packing up every night, I have not made it to the exercise room since Saturday morning...and here it is Wednesday afternoon...yikes. Well, if I die of an early heart attack, you will know what did it. Until next time, everyone!
