Anxiety & I-10
Those two terms pretty much summarize my week.
Monday - A trip to the office to review and practice a powerpoint presentation that wasn't ready. Then it was home to find that none of my suits fit, which posed a major problem since my first interview since being laid off was Tuesday. Then the mad dash to find something to wear that wouldn't cost a fortune. The good news? I bought size 20 pants. I was able to get pants, a blazer and a top for around $50 which was awesome considering my budgetary restrictions. Oh and of course there was washing clothes and packing at the last minute.
Tuesday - Back to the office to go over the presentation. Then my interview which was a bit more intense than I thought it would be. Then home to load up Bertha and I was hitting the road to head home to Mobile. Considering I didn't sleep well the previous cause I was so anxious about my interview, the 6 hour trip morphed into an almost 8 hour trip cause I was so tired I had to stop and rest along the way.
Wednesday - Up at the crack of dawn to get momma to the hospital by 7 am. We ended up getting there at 6:30. Then came the wait. Momma's surgery was successful but she ended up staying overnight. 12 hours after getting there, I finally left the hospital.
Thursday - Still hadn't seen the final version of the presentation I was supposed to be doing on Friday. I had to cancel the conference call to practice cause I had to head to the hospital to pick momma up but ended up waiting for over an hour cause they were so slow finishing the discharge paperwork Finally got a chance to practice Thursday afternoon.
Friday - Up at 4 am to get ready to get back on I-10 to head to Tallahassee. Then there was practice and the presentation. Then back on I-10 to head back to Mobile. 14 1/2 hours after I left I made it back home to finally get some rest after a crazy week.
Saturday - Got on the scale and weighed 327 lbs. That's just 2 lbs away from my end of the year goal. Woohoo!
