grab a piece of cake and join me

in my misery. The hearing did NOT go well today. My lawyer didn't tell the people she was coming, so I was behind the 8 ball to start. She didn't like my side of the story at all, and she made that painfully obvious. the moron who was my boss lied all over the place again. Big surprise.

So my goal over the next part of my life is to not obsess about this. I need to drop it and let it go. I could appeal, but I don't think it would really be worth it unless i spent the money and went with the high priced lawyer - which I would love to do, but it just makes me look petty. I wanted him to see he might possibly be wrong, which I KNEW wasn't going to happen. Well maybe it will. Maybe the woman will put her pettiness aside and rule for me. Who knows.

But I shall sit and eat cake, take a bubble bath, and do my best to anticipate the new job instead of dwelling on the last.

woo freakin hoo!

As you might or might not know, I was recently fired from my last job. Today I went and saw a lawyer about it. The owner/boss lied to unemployment and made me look horrible and thus denied my ability to get unemployment. The lawyer thinks I have a very interesting case for my appeal in getting benifits restored. Sadly (or not depending on your perspective) I took a job this morning, so I can't collect indefininately, but at least I will have been put in the "right". He shouldn't have fired me. He has the right, as this is an at will employment state, but he was wrong all over the place and we get to show him to his face what a jerk he is!! :)

Diet wise I haven't been doing very well.. exercise wise I have though. This morning was strange as I was having heart palpitations while lying in bed (before I started my morning) I wasn't overly stressed about my meeting, so I don't think that is it, although it could have been.

So I have a job at a beautiful furniture store. Its stunning! I hope I have an amazing discount. Its almost too bad I already bought new bedroom furniture cause the stuff in there is just what I wanted, but what i have is close enough, and I enjoy it. I can't just get rid of perfectly good furniture because I found something I like. The hubby was joking with me that I'd probably bring home way too much, and I laughed that I would only bring home pieces I need. He said when does need have anything to do with anything. well at least we'll have money now to do the improvements to the house that we wanted. oh I can't wait. ALthough to have the house I want, I probably should keep it CLEAN! (my office here is a STY!!)

Oh Im so thrilled. I can't wait to see the look on the jerks face when my lawyer calls him an idiot

no glasses, can't see

I got up for a quick moment to do something on line, and so I didn't grab my glasses. Now my kitten is asleep on my chest, and Im stuck here for a few minutes, so I thought Id post.

Ive been doing better on my eating. Portion control really is key. I stepped on the scale a few days ago and was quite surprised when I was down five pounds. I had to get back on to be sure. These past few days Ive not been eating well, so Im a little scared to get back on it. Also Ive been a little constipated ever since my last massage on friday. She noticed some tension in my bowls, so she worked on it, which was nice, but since then Ive had very little output.(and lots of gass) aren't you glad you asked? - am I typing in all caps?? - gets closer.. nope, just looks that way when you can't see what is going on very clearly.

Anyway.. I made chocolate cupcakes with ganash for hubby's birthday. they are yummy. I made one tray of regular ones for him, and a tray of minis so I could feel good about eating them, although that probably wasn't the best idea since I've had like six of them.

I think im ready to go back to sleep, but ive still got a kitten on my chest. Which I love. Oh what to do, what to do..
