Whew Workshop is Finished

Friday, July 20th 2007

Well, the intensive workshop is finished and it's back to real life today. My niece and her family came down from VA and stayed with us Wed evening and Thurs. I had a great time and hope they did too. One of Austin's big attractions is the bat colony under the Congress Ave. bridge. Wed. night we went out for dinner at a place where we could see the bats fly out at dusk. Do you think they came out? I've never known the bats not to come out. Oh well.... no bats. My niece's kids have such g...

No TIME to Rest

Wednesday, July 18th 2007

Ok, first let me say that I'm spoiled. Usually when I go to conferences for work... they are fun, informative and for the most part relaxing. There are substantial breaks, a pretty long lunch hour and the evenings are all free. This week I've been an intensive communication skills (American Sign Language) workshop. It went for 9 hours on Sunday, 13 hours on Monday and 13 hours on Tuesday and continues through Thursday. Now, don't misunderstand. I'm having a great time and learning a lot, B...

Picture Woes

Sunday, July 8th 2007

Well, my tech savvy isn't what it needs to be to master picture related stuff. I've been trying to get a pic to show up next to my blog posts, etc. to no avail. I'm sure I'll eventually figure it out, but it's a tad frustrating this morning. I've got a lot to do today, so, I'd better get to it! We've had almost 50 straight days of rain (not complaining) and it's supposed to rain today too. So that cuts out the "outside" work though it looks like we live in a jungle! Definitely no...

Good Bye LAWL

Saturday, July 7th 2007

Well,

Today I say goodbye to my parttime job at LA Weight Loss. I have really loved this job, but after being out for 3 months with this surgery and it's complications... I just can't go back. My fulltime job is taking all of my efforts because I was also out from that one for a long time. Now, I have to pull double duty to catch up there and I'm still not functioning at 100%! I'm hoping some of my former clients at LAWL will be able to benefit from using Calorie King to support their p...

Gotta Boat?

Friday, July 6th 2007

Wow, I cannot believe we have had 45 straight days of rain in usually hot and sunny Austin, TX. Flooding everywhere around this state. The guy on the news said the flood damage covers an area the size of the State of Mississippi. It's supposed to clear out of here by tomorrow. I'm sorry for all the devastation that people have experienced, 18-20 deaths, and who knows how many houses, cars, businesses, etc..

I'm having a heck of a time with my scale. I've developed lymphedema in my ri...
